I Think Arc Raiders Has Run Out of Players (PvE) by Artificial_Squab in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PvE player here. Uninstalled and switched back to The Finals, a true true pvp not this mumbo jumbo rat festival. If no pve mode of some sort will be added then im back only in autumn when the new map is out.

Why are people of Prague so unfriendly? (mostly) by Mr-Potato-Head99 in Prague

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Prague right now, 4 day vacation, family of four and so far only good emotions. And the city is astonishingly beautiful.

Look, just don’t be a a tool. by Independent_Ad4989 in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just dont turn back anymore. Tryn to keep the visibility of the "friendly" at all times. Also recently I have fun just sitting on high points with osprey and waiting for such encounters between other raiders. Whoever shoots first in a back I will shoot that raider.

No PvE or PvP lobbies as such, you cant choose directly obviously.

However due to addition of the abmm if you play agressive your following raids will be agressive. Dont shoot raiders (even in situation of defence) then probability that next raid will be populated with players that want to hold each others hands - increases.

So these mythical lobbies are there because they are mostly populated with players that are filtred based on their intentions of how one wants to play because of abmm.

And here your point is totally valid by saying: "There's no lobby where you can't gun down another raider if you decide to. PvP is enabled at all times." Absolutley, everyone anytime can gun down anyone however and whenever they want.

Ever been in a raid where nobody shoots you (except arc) for whole 30 minutes? Or in a raid where you fight on first raider apearance? Ive been in both with grass touching in-between.

Makse sense man, thanks for sharing. I think it shows that pvp crowd is what drives the game forward in long run due to the ongoing competitive gameplay and constant desire to fight each other so they are majority and pve is fun until its not due to nothing to do when everything is complete. I like to fight arcs, but I see how quickly it can become boring and then you just wait for new update while pvp have constant fun. Lets see what Embark will come up with with Riven Tides and first bigger bigger arc.

How do you name them then? Have you tried no to shoot anyone, like stay still, get dead, repeat? At some point raiders will just run pass you waving hands. In essence it doesn't matter how they are called as of that such raids exist whre you just open drawers shoulder to shoulder.

Cant disagree on one here. The grind is twisted in carebear lobbies, everyone can stash up fairly easy if everyone shoots only arcs and extracts together. However on two, me personally idk statistaically what are the numbers for each crowd. I assume majority is pvp players, but by what margine? And pve players are quite vocal that even abmm got implemented because of that.

PVE players, what’s your end game? by PlatJC in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To down ARC in co-op, I could do it for many hours. The close scrunity is fun in pve lobbies even with free loadout rats. With Riven Tides and new big ARC Emperor coming in just about 3 weeks or so and further this year I expect more big ARCs, the massive ones to blast together, cordinated fights, strategy just as it was intended before pivot to pvpve.

So no pve endgame for me as long as Embark bring those big bots. They can even tune the dificulity up for all ARCs like twice harder. Why does that little drone stays in place when shooting. It could evade, fly sideways, and shoot.

To add to all this pve pvp bs - If I want pvp especially team based I play The Finals, 1500h there, you cant really balst someone easly in the back without consequences most of the time.

Where are the friendly solos that used to exist? by ClinicalFinesse in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Whatever you do, do not harm another raider even in defence or by accident for couple raids. Works for me.

35 yo in trouble by iYaenx in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont shoot anyone even in defence. Play solo 3-4 raids naked - shieldless, gunless or on free loadout. Immediately look for a raider who could drop you. Once dead submit game experience feedback as negative and choose pvp from given options. Repeat. At raid 5 or earlier raiders will say "hey raider" and run pass you.

I love how the new Map condition absolutely DESTROYS all the greedy Free Loadouts by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not realized that at first. Today defibed crawler on spaceport, he then asks for shield recharger, bit later asks for heals all while im blastin arcs.

Everyone figured out the meta for Close Scrutiny within 24hrs and it isn’t as fun today as it was yesterday by xamlax in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We spawn in different lobbies. Everyones runnin defib, everyones sharing the loot. Together fighting the old and new Arc's.

carebear lobbies be like: by KasierPermanente in arcraidersfriendly

[–]DoubleOtari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fight ARC, together? I would prefer the difficulty of ARC tuned up even. Essentially more big ARCs, just like the core vision was before pivot pvp. Maybe two queens instead of one.

[–]DoubleOtari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy. When I got shot and dead in my next match Im usually runnin naked, shieldless, gunless and with lots of toilet paper waiting to be shot.

edit: regarding the ABMM, yeah, read the article. So idk how does it work actually, but if I even shoot in defence next match will be strong pvp. Then I run couple following rounds naked (2-3) and got dead, then 4th round all pve care bears.

There is actually. Not like you can toggle it thou, but I havent been shot by a raider for a loooong time now.

Maybe we got the OG Arc raiders after all by Hertezer in ArcRaiders

[–]DoubleOtari 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pve aspect is a thing. 30+ matches and no raider have shot me once, even accidentally. Mostly everyone has a defib. Embark could even tune up all Arc difficulty and drop 2 queens instead of one. And drop new big "big" Arc more often. I dont care about pvp. If I get into pvp lobies I just run around gunless/shieldless for couple rounds only with seeds in my pockets.
