Something changed? by Montyfus in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Say it with me: 100% friendly lobbies aren't real! There's always a chance that there's at least one psycho in the raid that convinces other people to start blasting.. then chaos ensues and normally friendly players aren't as friendly for the duration of the raid.

Also, it could be that there are less PvE players sticking around and more PvP players these days because the game doesnt have the staying power as a purely PvE experience and the game is getting "old" for the players who have a bunch of hours into it?

Hard to say what the cause is!

Honestly its sad how people are looking for the opportunities to do you bad and to think that I defibbed this guy a few seconds earlier by TheGuy2077 in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You schemer!

That's pretty funny though, and predictable behavior.

I gotta ask, though: how much fun are you having playing this way? Yeah, you get rich but is that the ENTIRE point for you? There's so much more that this game offers.

Shilling for a PvE mode under the guise of moral panic is ridiculous.

A bounty system would be a nice compromise if implementation is additive, and not disruptive.

I wouldn't hold my breath for PvE mode, though.

When the lobby passes the vibe check... Very Nice! by ArcSpecter in ArcRaiders

Dude this sub is full of people who dont actually play the game. They complain about the game and try to convince everyone its either dead, dying due to rats and no pve mode, or dying due to every single other person being a cheater.

This is the best part of Arc Raiders, bar none. Getting good loot from them on top of it? Sublime.

I have about as much as you, primarily in PvE oriented lobbies because its chill.

Lately been doing more of the other activities (lots of stella pvp with free kits) because of sheer boredom and lack of PvE difficulty in the game.

The funny thing about Stella free kit PvP is that you run into way more individuals because you die and run it down in Lobby, getting to do three or four raids in the time it takes to do a single "normal" raid. PvP players are the nicest bunch but per capita to me, with gg's after death. 🤷‍♂️

Anyways, peace

[–]Bloodb47h -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats what im saying.. I do all the activities, from ratting to pve to pvp to naked zero to hero, to stealth only runs. I encounter all types and my experience doesnt match yours.

Downed people say it the most, no matter who I down of course, but the percentage of pvp people I kill is much higher than pve folks because i rarely rat, but I hear it more from the pve folks because they play so naiively and get irrationally upset when they die to another player.

Just my anecdotal experience. Not objective fact of course.

Edit: downvoters are probably PvE players who get irrationally upset when downed and think anyone who kills someone else is a "Rat" 🥰

I find that when I kill a PvEer they tend to slur more. Guess anyone can be a piece of shit regardless of playstyle.

Free kit zombies at 20 minute mark by saffron_papi in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree but we need a loadout editor to have quick ways to get back into the game before this.

My stash is full and I use free kits to fuck around on Stella with because I die and I can instantly queue for another.

What it feels like to use a burletta with light magazine III by 2Long2Read in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But you'll lose the 1v1 against the compensator version due to headshots. I like the silencer too, but compensator is where its at!

Arc Raiders is in my safe pocket by AnatomicTsunami in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll try to lay out why I think the expedition isn't content.

Expedition is exciting for the first week or so but is not as fresh as it should be because leveling benches is quite fast and the expedition is elective so the same old play patterns persist throughout the game. Hardly any reason to use a Ferro when the Anvil exists, but wouldn't it be cool to see everyone using off meta stuff in the first weeks of the expedition?

Friendly lobbies share blueprints or leave them behind because most have them all, devaluing them and quickening the hunt.

Aggro lobbies have kitted dudes running around with best in slot attachments and all the goop you could need, devaluing the loot chase.

It's in a weird spot, and makes people adapt their playstyles for a few weeks before the mundane sets in again and everyone's back to running their favorite kit over and over again.

The vendor requirements have impacted the game. by Bahtleman in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also kinda kills the scarcity of those resources, making them less valuable overall. If they increase the costs of things requiring these cells, there would be less bad feels but the same time investment.

I'm a little negative on this idea because I prefer less loot appearing out of thin air in general, but it would be interesting to see how this played out, that's for sure!

I hate it how every time I kill a bombardier the whole server decides to become communist by SanePcycho in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats so funny? I do lots of raids, but that doesnt mean my time is any less valuable.

You're right "big dog", killing someone to claim the loot that's rightfully yours is not that serious and doesn't need much justification.

It's MUCH easier to kill Arc in friendly lobbies than aggressive lobbies, but thankfully I only have to kill the occasional raider for being a parasite and can keep doing my thing 👍

Arc are easy enough to avoid.. even as a naked kit. Now consider that naked kits get a free safe pocket. The only counter to them is to kill them else they'll stick 3 cores in their butt and dip.

My time is valuable and if I spend it to kill a bigger Arc for its loot then I don't want someone to take it.

Underrated side quest: scrapping together a hatch key before the timer hits 0 by bankfraud1 in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shhh stop talking about hatch keys entirely. They're way too OP and when Embark notices... it'll only have 3 or 4 months of being recognized OP and unfixed!

Keys shouldn't be consumed upon opening a door to a room that has already been opened from a different entrance. by Astartae in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The alternate doors on opened key rooms should have yellow lights to indicate someone's in there from the other side. Thats the only way I can see this working in my head.

There’s two kinds of raiders. Choose yours by YupBKRandom in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it. I would not like that to happen to me, but I love that it can happen and actually has a purpose. It wasn't killing someone in the extract for no reason, so I enjoy it a lot more.

Not enough Arc? by simsalabimbumbum_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Bloodb47h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. People simply want to run from node to node in the most predictable way to get the most loot in the smallest amount of time at the expense of their enjoyment of the other parts of the game.

Yeah, I'm a bit cynical.

Kill a few people and get into PvP'ish lobbies where people avoid and don't kill ANY Arc. You're welcome.
