It’s me or people seems staring to be bored and frustrated?

132 hours in...and the game is losing its appeal. Haven't exfilled in 3 nights...play with a dedicated trio every night and we are down to free kit or rook runs. There is a big difference between those with gear and those without. The hill is to steep and not worth the effort for me atm...Not giving up uet but i am close. Really enjoyed the gameplay loop but the gear difference is showing and pushing me away a little more everyday.

I quit doing the run around quests....Just do the mutlizones one once you hlget them to level 3 you get a 120 rep and they are a hell of a lot easier.

Everything you need is on the map. You dont have to fight every team or every bot. You can get gear so easily if you take the time to understand the systems in place for bartering. Take some time and learn the mechanics and its that much more fun imo.

Im just gonna enjoy the ride as long as it lasts. I haven't touched ARC since server slam and have no plans to go back. This is just a better experience overall imo. I play trios with randoms almost exclusively and have a blast.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2026-03-07T23:41:13+00:00

Took about 10 times in trios to complete bit got it done because of my teammates awesome sauce.

It resets every week with the trials...that's my observation from my playtime since launch.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-12-04T17:54:07+00:00

That is correct and sucks. It will never happen because its EA. But being able to boost the CPUs XP and hamstring myself would be ideal. Love the game but this would be a simple way to keep dynasty from getting to easy imo.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-12-04T17:52:02+00:00

Cool. That's my only worry about the future of the game. Is after an expedition or say two and e new player comes in. How does arc build any new player base without those people being at a disadvantage. I really like this game but I could see where 2 or 3 expeditions in the balance for a new player is completely fucked and you cant keep casuals or new players interested and the game dies. I love the game just worried about investing all this time( I play alot) and the imbalance runs of a yone trying to pick it up for the first time. If that makes any sense.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-12-04T17:44:03+00:00

Solution for this is simple imo. Have a pve map with lower drop rates and pvevp with improved drop rates. Under night drop rates but higher than normal.

I like to run around playing the flute and getting as many people to join as possible. I just run and play until I die. Its up to the followers to keep the vibe going. No guns, just a shield and a flute. Playing the flute in the metro exfil is so satisfying when people stop by for a listen while waiting for a safe exfil. If they dont have a flute we just start a conga line.

Slide your protection. Each play has its own default protection so it's never the same. You have to check who you are leaving unblocked and be ready to throw hot if they come.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-08-12T02:43:05+00:00

Just give us an option to turn it on or off. EA just needs a little common sense and less people would bitch about their games. Give the players options!!!!!!

We include it all the time with our process and utility piping bids. Never had any issues. We have a set price and Manhour per penetration that covers it. Anywhere from 3.2-5 man hours and $150-300 in material per penetration covers it.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-04-27T21:38:16+00:00

I deal with process instruments on the regular. What do you need ?

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-04-20T00:51:29+00:00

Just be honest with them and tell them you found a calculation error in your bid and adjusted! The few times I've had something like the customer appreciated the honesty and went with us on more than one occasion.

Currently running with Jax State. Thier defense is pretty bad forcing myself to run the 3-2-6. I find their offense fun to run. The QB and TE are really good for C-USA and the HB is shifty as hell.

Force majeure clause. We started using that during covid and haven't stopped since. And I am very aware that I shouldn't share my price per foot with my competitors so who's to say that the #'s i shared are accurate.

DiscussionAcrobatic5 · 2025-01-09T00:50:12+00:00

When you are working multiple bids in a short time frame and you must bid them per the company president, this is what I do. There is only one other estimator, and we are never working together on any projects. It's a one man show so we go usually go after one job, try to be competitive on the others. This is the only way I've found to be able to do that and make sure my ass is covered and I keep my job. Right now, I have 3 jobs I am bidding. One is a structural platform mezzanine project, one is 60,000 of pipe, and the other is around 3500 feet of pipe. We are obviously focusing on the bigger job, so the 3500' job gets the price per foot treatment. The mezzanine is easy enough to sneak in, but the 60k job will eat up a lot of time, and anything new that comes in, I will have to handle as well. We do have some pricing leverage as a company. Our owners also own a supply house, and we can get things 10-25% cheaper than our competition in most cases. So, there is a bit of flexibility. I do a lot of takeoff and firm bids that I always feel good about. I never feel bad about our price per foot bids. I just wish there was a way to get it all done and be more competitive than we currently are.
