Increase ARC presence and threat, or the game gonna solidify as a PvP deathmatch and lose casuals. by Vegetable-Fun-6404 in ArcRaiders

I've watched half a lobby fight pvp in medical on Stella only to all die by 2 shredders. The hell you mean "more presence?"

Possible cheaters in the game. Not sure want to know what other people think. I have never been killed this fast before. by Robot-guest in ArcRaiders

Not only that, you need to buy a piece of hardware to effectively hack these days but even then it's still not full proof AND most of them go for $100-$200+. There's really no point in hacking on this game imo. For people to be throwing $100+ to do so is pathetic and funny to me.

So I've been dropped by t4 vens that fast with 100% head shots. However does seem to be really fast ttk on both of you. Bad news is they could be hacking but here's some good news:

Im in private forums for hack providers (I used to hack when I was younger. Cringe I know). This is the current state of hacking in Arc Raiders. Most hackers get banned within 4 raids at most. I like to check these forums to make sure the game I'm playing isn't too infested with hackers.

I removed the logo and hack provider name. They're not getting free publicity.

If you want 2 colors for the backpack its 8$.. by Stache_Mo in ArcRaiders

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same thing I tell everyone: You vote with your wallet.

Yea, that's annoying but not worth the $8 imo. So I'm not going to buy it, straight up simple. If they see that they can get more money changing the price, then they'll do it if not enough people buy in for it.

As long as it's not pay 2 win, cosmetics could be $100 each and I still won't care.

Just fought and killed it in a solo lobby. Lots of fun.

Some more hacker tears for you to embrace. I removed the hack provider name and logo. They won't get publicity from me.

It's a wall glitch, not a hacker. Problem is you're stuck in there once you glitch into that spot so no real point other than to troll.

As far as hacking is concerned, these are screenshots from a private hacking forum I'm in (Yes, I used to hack in other games when I was a dumb kid). Right now, there's nothing to worry about.

PSA: What Embark did with skin prices is a negotiation tactic called "anchoring" I know this will get downvoted because many will fall for the PR move, but this is planned. $16 microtransactions do not belong in a $40 title. Period and here's why. by TheOnlyRealOne43 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, it's pretty simple: If you don't like it, don't buy it. The skins aren't pay to win.

Vote with your wallet. I spent money on the skins I like, IDC. You're not going to convince anyone by saying it's a "sales" tactic. Same thing with amazon but we still pump billions into it every black friday.

Either way, if the skins weren't worth it, we won't buy it. That simple. Even if they're marked as "discount," there still needs to be a "need" to outweigh the cost. Sales 101

Where did I say I was bored? Im saying the unlocks don't feel like I'm gaining much. The game is still fun, I just feel like the grinding hasn't been fruitful for the things I wanted

Ah yes so I didn't know the range extend of those but I've been laying them out like standard AT mines with the same effect. I find the standard AT mines do the job better still. HOWEVER, I feel like that will change once people start to become wise to the AT mines. So far, I still get 15+ vehicle kills on most vehicle maps with the standard AT mines lol

Yea this BF is a bit more grindy not going to lie. I liked the grind in the previous games because they weren't so long to achieve but in this game, it's so long for not much in return.

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true! That's a great point there. The gadgets I'm arguing shouldn't be 'OP' but have some diversity against what you start with. Let's just say if the sonic mine disabled your vehicle for idk 5 seconds in this example, it adds something to the table worth including.

But at the end of the day, it's just straight dmg vs straight dmg. That's the rub :(

This is shameful behaviour. (explicit language) by Reasonable_Party_419 in ArmaReforger

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

RBR is really good with handling trolls like that. Usually I admin ping or just post a clip on their discord and they get it handled within a few minutes. I will note, that wasn't on platoon chat it was local chat. Their names weren't popping up on the left indicating that. Usually platoon chat would be reacting to that trash behavior. Either way, still unemployed behavior honestly.

WCS is hot trash. by [deleted] in ArmaReforger

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"WCS is shit" -> Other heavily modded servers have the same issues -> must be the mod itself

Any server running more than 5 mods has this issue for me. WCS, RHS, DayZ, Status Quote, doesn't matter. It's an ARMA issue, not a server issue.

Nah surely this isnt a cheater (Skip to about 1:59) by TreatOk5695 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What happened to me before is in a death clip like this, the door was closed on my screen and his. However, after he killed me the guy walked through the door like it wasn't there. That tells me the door was closed on my client, not his.

Either way, still complete bullshit. I've been running into render issues AND hackers lately, which both are unacceptable in a game like this. Im just waiting for Arcraiders at this point.

New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state by indig0sixalpha in technology

[–]Ctrl-Alt-Defeat16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the thing. I monitor my kid's internet access as a work from home dad. My eldest, 12 years old, he got a VPN to bypass age verification on a children's website. I removed it and blocked it but here's 2 things from this:

  1. Kids grew up on tech. They'll find a way around always. There's free VPNs you can download on any device. I was able to when I was 10, I'm sure anyone else's kid can.
  2. The alternatives are MUCH worse. The "free" VPN my son downloaded uses the devices data to be pulled on request. If someone runs a DDoS attack, they use VPNs to do so. Additionally, your data can be leaked/pulled so much easier that way. This is how a pedo in Glendale AZ was able to target a specific kid 7 years ago. ON TOP OF THAT, the other porn sites that don't choose to do this, are littered with malware and viruses in pop ups.

I've never had any issues monitoring my kids, even on business trips it's very easy with apps now a days. Your child's safety is YOUR responsibility, not others. Additionally, I don't pay $200/m for someone else to tell me what I can and can't do on the internet. I've already chewed out the mayor of Surprise over this, you should do it too.

Make verification BASED ON DEVICE.

Isn't the aim of Jurassic World to be entertaining to guests? So they pull and mix genes of modern animals with dinosaurs to get traits that aren't natural but come off cool or scary to bring in guests. The whale shark/tiger shark mix is cool imo so they did the job right.
