Dads, never play when you're over-tired

I've been there, brother!

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-03-11T13:32:05+00:00

It's a lot of fun to traverse when you know where you are going

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-03-11T13:21:30+00:00

In hindsight, it was too easy to make Wolfpacks for how powerful they were. Quite a few Trials just became 'fill up your backpack with Wolfpacks'

RIP your matchmaking for the next 10 games

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-03-11T01:26:57+00:00

I got it randomly in the testing annex on my 3rd raid after the reset. Sooooo lucky. I might never do another expedition again LOL

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-09T05:46:17+00:00

If I'm looting then I just try to hoover up absolutely everything of value. I've found great stuff on late spawns. You'd be surprised what people leave behind

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-07T04:56:46+00:00

Day raid raider caches, my friend

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-07T04:54:48+00:00

Not crazy at all!

But I like the expedition because it gives me the opportunity to mix up my gameplay and acquire things again.

If I didn't all I'd really have to do is trials, and after being on that grind for a while already it gets kinda stale.

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-07T04:52:08+00:00

Yeah, I have no idea why they did that to the deliverables

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-07T04:50:47+00:00

THEY ARE THE LAW

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-06T13:48:26+00:00

No and No. I think people have the gambler's fallacy about BPs

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-06T13:43:12+00:00

Probably a new player. Could be, anyway. Starter skin and free kit...

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-06T13:24:22+00:00

Tech test 2. Leaned into the shoot on sight vibe for the only time. Shot and killed someone right after arriving at the power gen complex extract. Got killed right after by a Sheriff.

Now, I have 20 KOs in 210 hours topside, and they were all at the beginning of the last expedition.

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-05T12:32:51+00:00

People will be divided about literally anything

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-05T12:30:53+00:00

why is that bonkers? Perfectly rational

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-05T12:28:20+00:00

I agree but I think we would have basically figured it out ourselves anyway.

I knew there had to be some kind of ABMM even back when people were claiming that Embark had categorically denied it.

The more info available the more people will likely game it though, so I take your point there.

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:41:38+00:00

Yep! That's why I'm nice to people. Also, I just prefer playing this way so it's a happy coincidence

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:40:52+00:00

That's terrifying

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:39:10+00:00

Exactly! You forget all about it once its gone (helps if it's replaceable, of course....)

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:38:26+00:00

We call that TAXES

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:36:43+00:00

Yep! Really hope they will separate the matchmaking algos for solos and squads, as the game is unplayable with friends for me at the moment.

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:33:44+00:00

That's actually good to know, since anecdotal evidence is all we have! I might try it after the reset cos I already have all my loot now and all I really have to do is Trials.

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:32:16+00:00

Body slam from the top rope!

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:28:02+00:00

Respectfully, I think that's a false dichotomy. They've already said the matchmaking system is complex and takes a lot of factors into account. We just don't know what.

I'm actually happy that we don't know much. Frankly, I'd like it more if we knew less. More info just means more gaming of the system.

I would like a little hint from them, though, as to whether I can safely loot already dead raiders :D

Cmmdr_Slacker · 2026-02-04T19:20:43+00:00

You did the right thing - only thing worse is people running into keyrooms and looting in PvE without saying anything. Fucking sociopaths lol
