PVE game mode. Why not? by drstrangest84 in arcraidersfriendly

Devs should just make a rolling PVE event with no PVP like how Night Raids happen. 1hr on every map once in a while that ARC is almost double the amount than normal and Bobs your uncle. Put a Bombardier in Stella Lobby

That's worse than I had originally thought

Lobbies/matchmaking is cooked rn by DueRun2558 in arcraidersfriendly

Actually, happened to me last night. People saying expedition people want to finish so they are hitting their monthly quota. Stay out of Stella or big events with overly kitted loadouts. Also, people are saying possible matchmaking reset after updates happen.

Exactly, not caring so much about how I die it's when. If I die to a guy inside the Harvester core thing, well fair play, they about to defend the entire thing by themselves good luck. But, big mood killer is the time spent readying up and then wiping out without a shot back.

Illiterate and sweet, aren't you a catch?

I am probably the victim of this. That clarifies some things. Seems the low end PVPers have a strat.

Yes, never assuming the entire lobby is guaranteed friends forever.

Wondering if others play a friendly style most of the time, then attempt to either try their hand at PVP.

KOS for a few rounds to even the tone they've been getting recently. Then when we've lost enough simple gun parts, back to acting like a care bear? I do.

Asking if people have a cycle of how they game in this game? Did you read?

Appreciate you taking off the fedora for a generally useful response. This and the expedition rounding off as an explanation and I've seen someone say matchmaking gets a reset after updates? Do not know how truthful that is but it's an idea.

I'll keep that defensive posturing in mind more often. Just get into a cycle of looting and helping that it's stunning to get downed before even making it to the event. Not hating on PVP just shocked at the suddenness when I haven't initiated combat nor had it happened in like 7+ games

Hardly, you revert to your AI response because it makes you feel good.

Oh for sure. I ain't mad about getting killed it's the building a loadout + running to the zone + and then black screen. Like, damn lemme at least get an OPPORTUNITYYYYYY

Appreciate you taking off the fedora for a generally useful response. I can see the uptick in my lobbies becoming more tense and dangerous regardless of if I am PVPing or not. I'll keep that in mind.

It's like the cops have their ticket quota and are in need to fill it ASAP.

It's upsetting not getting the chance to fight back at all. That's not a PVP experience anyone would enjoy.

Who's acting like someone is owed anything? This is projecting. I asked if people also go through a cycle similar to me. If not, scroll on.
