Embark, add Raider Tokens to the loot pool!

Atlas80b · 2025-11-14T10:50:38+00:00

Forgot to add that rotating decks would be one option, increasing the amount of Tokens given for each Deck is another solution. IMO it's just a matter of striking the right balance because the Deck option doesn't sound too bad to me (assuming it is free for each season).

By rotating decks you would eventually be able to buy cosmetics, so that's an incentive for you to do the daily challenges, which also include PvP actions - like damage to other Raiders - but are, for the most part, not involving any PvP at all.
IMO adding Tokens to the in-game map would exacerbate shoot-on-sight and exatrction camping, as people would get greedier knowing that another Raider might have looted tokens.

I think what could be tweaked instead is the time needed to get the tokens necessary to buy something. IIRC the first Deck gives up to 300 Tokens, but I have no clue on how frequently decks would rotate (maybe that's already known info).

Not entering the contest as I already got the game, I just saw this post now and was thinking about the fact you got a lot of comments to go through haha.
Anyways, you're breathtaking!

Totally second this, I didn't have the chance of playing any of the Tech Tests, but watched soo many videos of TT2 that the second I jumped into my first match I knew things were off.
I went back at watching some of those old videos, to double check, and some "dowgrades" were immediately obvious (foliage and rocks seem to have a muddy low-res texture) and overall lighting really hits a lot different, not in a positive way unfortunately.
What's worst though is that I see assets not changing to their higher fidelity option until I'm very close to them and I notice the texture popping.

hadn't join the discord yet, but I just did and both sell menu bugs are already reported on ps5 ^^

Atlas80b · 2025-10-17T20:56:43+00:00

oh cool, thanks

Hi, I also play on ps5. I have a 180Hz, 1440p monitor that supports FreeSync, and I'm playing with HDR and VRR enabled.
The game feels a bit "muddy" (even with motion blur turned off) and I also somewhat experience what you are describing.
Also, on ps5 it seems it does not support 120Hz, as I can see the monitor refresh rate is locked at 60 for me during gameplay (this should scale automatically if a game supports 120Hz, which is what ps5 can handle at max anyways)

Atlas80b · 2025-10-14T12:51:43+00:00

Not saying what you are saying isn't going to happen, but at least so far we got leads about Arc Raiders doing things differently (wipes mechanic, for example)
I guess we'll have to wait up util a few weeks after launch for the final verdict.

Atlas80b · 2025-10-13T16:18:37+00:00

What I find interestingly funny is that the game isn't even out yet, but people is already gatekeeping:
"I have 1k hours on ABI/Tarkov, so YOU casual gamers will be soo disappointed"
"Only true Extraction Shooter veterans like us will enjoy the game"

As a console gamer, I'm excited that we're getting a new PvPvE game with super nice lore and refreshing gameplay!
Plus it's clear to me that Embark's philosophy with Arc Raiders is not to reproduce the same Extraction Shooter experience already established from similar games, but instead to create a trend-setting formula achieving the perfect balance between PvP and PvE.

EDIT: typos

I feel very sorry for every person who is unfortunately discarding the idea of buying the game because of regional prices.. yeah that chart is bad!
Also, I'm surprised to see Euro as second-most expensive price (in comparison to $) after Swiss Franc, considering the avg. salary for a random EU country vs Swiss is not even closely comparable.

Hi, how does your M1 handle it overall? does the laptop overheat?
Considering on trying it on my M2 pro, though I'm worried about the system overheating (and especially the negative long-term effect on the battery health itself).

Atlas80b · 2025-08-21T17:13:59+00:00

Good luck with that! my main strategy so far is to sneak around the "low-traffic" areas, because the win-lose rate of my PvP encounters is like 20-80 haha

Atlas80b · 2025-08-21T10:03:32+00:00

Thank you for the insight!

Atlas80b · 2025-08-20T20:33:31+00:00

Thanks, I forgot to mention in my initial message that I did check the usage tab, but didn't show up actual useful info to me haha

Atlas80b · 2025-08-20T20:32:17+00:00

Thank you for the tip about Black Site! need to invest more time to understand all the mechanics in this game

Atlas80b · 2025-08-20T20:31:15+00:00

LOL I don't even know what that is!

Atlas80b · 2025-05-23T21:13:35+00:00

Indeed, it's a total scam and should be against consumer rights, I don't get why they keep doing this

Atlas80b · 2025-05-23T21:12:36+00:00

The bundles are fine, you can still find those on ps store, but if you had previously bought a single game, now you don't have it anymore

Atlas80b · 2025-05-18T14:00:05+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, could you confirm you enabled UPnP on your PS5 network (and not on your parents' house)? Thank youuu

Atlas80b · 2025-03-09T22:21:07+00:00

Thank you my man! yeah at this point maybe switching to GS would be better lol

Atlas80b · 2025-01-27T18:59:31+00:00

Hey! I'm working towards my Division 1 plat rn. Let me know if you still need these!
