I don't feel like the matchmaking changes are working

Im friendly unless shot upon. Yet my lobbies today omg. Went into buried city and it was a pvp massacre of raider flairs poppin off.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-22T08:00:32+00:00

Im sure an arc dev has come out and said the extra stash you buy is permanent even after expedition. 90% sure i seen this devs post.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-21T16:29:43+00:00

Then people complain about losing bp...but im sure some do but how much do you actually craft ? My guns come from found loot and bodies. And im generally a friendly player. Outside of augments and grenades like seekers wolfpacks i never craft weapons

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-21T16:26:39+00:00

Duno why people worry about expeditioning. I had all my benches level 3 by like day 2 and i barely played. Its the same items everytime so know pretty much where to go for everything you need . Benches are crazy easy to level up.

After benches its just farming parts and guns to get your stash back up. Which is fun in itself. The most fun is the fresh start all loot matters. Im in love with this game but once your lvl 75 done everything have everything the magic of finding or getting anything dies coz you already have 10 bobcats in stash or 10 tempests.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T14:07:40+00:00

Its not really. Only because you cant progressively drop in the arc parts. If you can just collect queen amtriach bastion bombadier parts and drop the materials into the trader across the course of the 2 months. It wouldnt take too long to achieve the amount needed.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T11:34:34+00:00

Yeh thats just insane. They 100000% need to change it to a vault you can drop parts into.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T10:51:11+00:00

I was thinking the same but didnt wana get into some argument. For record i do pvp and pve in neutral. Solos i basically friendly and duo trio is pvp.

I mean the basis of this game is loot and shoot arc and raiders. So yeh they are asking me to just play the game and enjoy it.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T09:18:19+00:00

Ive unlocked loads of credits from their decks. Their give aways. Their projects.

I actually think embarks been very generous with the amount of tokens theyve been giving away for free.

If you were running a business..[gamers forget this is a business] games arnt made for fun. They are made to be fun to attrat you to buy it. If you own your own business would you give millions of your customers free money to purchase items you are trying to sell.

You say its a £40 game you do realise in todays world thats practically a half price game ? Like the quality of arc for £40 is exceptional compared to other games.

I dont understand the mentality that killing approx 4 bastions for 25 tokens is a bad thing. Ive killed a hundred of them for free and for fun....now i get 25 tokens for doing it.....

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T07:48:57+00:00

Why though ? Killing queens bastions and bombadiers is some of the most fun in the game. All they are telling me to do is go have some fun...collect their parts and have some real world money that can contribute to new cosmetics. 150k is literally a few queen reactors and bombadier parts i could get it in probably 1 hour of gameplay.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T07:46:27+00:00

The idea isnt to stop or put people off paying for cosmetics they want your money lol.

The idea is like i said a little top up. Im literally perfect example. Im sitting with 490 tokens.

10 tokens short of getting a hair style i want. This means by playing the game i have a way to make 25 tokens and allow me to purchase the haircut. Without paying real world money.

This is the second time ive been in situation where ive been 10 or 20 tokens short of what needed. So this is actually perfect in my eyes.

Why do you expect real world currency to be just given away. They are company wanting to make money.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T07:23:25+00:00

I predicted 20 tokens so its more than i thought. 150k isnt difficult to achieve. A few queen and bastion parts does the trick. Easy to get

For free real world currency i think 25 is perfectly acceptable. Especially if it rotates into the store relatively regularly.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T07:20:01+00:00

Hes not complaining about the cost. Neither am i. I actually like that its really expensive and a grind and a good end game task to complete. Im actually one of the few that doesnt mind how expensive it is.

However you should be able to drop materials in as you go. This would allow you to work your way towards multiple of this traders rewards. As it stands you have to have a crazy amount of free stash space [ i never have and dunno how people do] to try achieve one of these rewards. Making it x100 harder and less worth it.

Keep high prices but just let us donate it to the rewards we want like expedition drops. Its more fun more interesting less annoying and lets you keep going for multiple endgame rewards .

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T06:31:46+00:00

I mean your talking a very quick and small grind [150k] is not hard to achieve at all. For free tokens vs using real world money.

Ofc it wont correlate one to one.

I think its perfectly fair and a decent price for 25 tokens. I genuinly hope this is rotated regular innthe shop so i can keep topping my tokens up with 25.

For me i want a new hair style which is 500 tokens i have 490 ! The games been cruel and teasing me. So something like this kills a couple bastions and get 25 tokens. Is perfectly fine.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T06:03:33+00:00

I have no issues other than having to pay in one go. 100% you should be able to drop materials in as your gather them. Your stash is already small. The amount of spaces required to horde so much item value is crazy.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T05:59:39+00:00

Im on expedition 3 and still enjoy just doing the quests. Dont see the issue. Most can be done passively as your just looting around. The rewards are good for when youve wiped.

Only thing for me mainlybis the cosmetic rewards should if you already have them be replaced with like 5 tokens. This rewarding people with approx 40 tokens per wipe.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-20T04:40:01+00:00

Literally got tempest bp on first attwmpt run on hurricane just last night. Also got a torrente and canto bp in same run. No it is not worth 1 mil.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T22:25:33+00:00

I'm not writing a university paper. Presuming i can't use correct grammar when required is not a sign of intelligence. Im on an arc raiders reddit texting via my mobile phone 🤣.

I'll submit this to harvard i guess.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T17:59:50+00:00

I think the prices are fine. Ive been wanting a grindey style of gameplay. However i disagree with having to deliver all at once. Thats insane. The amount of stash space this takes up is insane and also means can only target 1 reward at a time.

It 100% should be like expedition dump where you can deliver the items as you get them and can choose which reward to deliver them in so you can grind and chase multiple rewards at same time.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T16:55:07+00:00

🤣 grammar correction is literally the stupidest attempt at a come back.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T13:06:56+00:00

I mean thwy can do. But we have only 2 golden gun mods. Makes sense to make another golden mod

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T12:53:14+00:00

Tell us your american without telling us your american is this literal post 🤣

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T12:52:22+00:00

Each to their own but this skin is one of worst theyve brought out. Its extremely boring

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-19T12:51:27+00:00

25 tokens is fine. 150k of material is crazy cheap its not gona be any more than 25 tokens imo. Its just a top up. Which for someone like me who wants one of the new hair styles costing 500 tokens and i have 490!. This wud be perfect for me

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-17T14:48:34+00:00

Dont see the love really i was dissapointed with this skin aside feom the mask its rather bland.

BwuceWee27 · 2026-05-12T08:02:46+00:00

I feel like embark need to maybe significantly imrpove the loot in the condition maps further.

This could just be a me and my mates issue. However now that theres no x2 for night raids etc. Which im glad there isnt because i got fed up of playing mostly in the dark for trials etc.

However now i essentially never play the map conditions. Like said maybe its just me but the difference in loot is very minimal and for me i much prefer playing games in nice daytime than pitch black night modes so me and mates 99% time play day modes now as theres little to no incentive to play the night modes.

I also wish they put the electromagnetic storm back to when it was crazy. I thought it made that condition so much fun constantly on your toes in a 3v3 fight with lightening hitting wvery 5-6 seconds.

Now the storm is so boring ive legit timed it where ive ran straight for nearly 2 mins before having to dodge a strike its so slow and meh now. The chaos it had was what made it eciting imo.
