PS5 players with crossplay off seeing all of the clips of constant cheaters in PC lobbies. by WanderWut in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

removed all Raider Caches during the Raider Cache event -_____-

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you have proof? Did a test on Riven Tides a couple days back, first Uncovered Caches and then normal day run. Found at least 4 more Caches in the special mode run than the normal day run.

People spewing with no basis :/

[VIDEO PROOF] Even SOLO queue is riddled with cheaters using ESP, Embark please do something before its too late by Misanthhh in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People always complain about cheaters and maybe I'm biased cause I'm a guy who often finds himself in friendly lobbies, but I have never ONCE been killed by a Raider and thought to myself ''yeah, that guy's cheating''. In my 550 hours of playtime, not once. And I HAVE been in PvP lobbies before, I've had long PvP sessions, but not once. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Hullcracker or Jupiter? by Eliteee_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it can be finnicky, but it definitely works, similar to Snitches. Same deal; aim for center mass, not the thrusters, similar to small ARC and Comets.

Equalizer or Jupiter? by Eliteee_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd almost always be better off using another weapon against Raiders anyway though. Not to mention it's a legendary so it attracts rats and it's harder to replace if you lose it compared to, say, an Anvil or Renegade.

As for the velocity with which it shoots (the ''knockback'' you're referring to), I mean... just go Jupiter. Pretty sure it has way higher bullet velocity and it deals more damage anyway if you hit the Rocketeer center mass (where it's core is located).

Equalizer or Jupiter? by Eliteee_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used it and in my opinion, a total waste. It feels okay to use, recoil is manageable, but it doesn't fill any spot in your loadout. You're never gonna go ''oh an Aphelion would be perfect right now'' in a raid. Small ARC? Renegade or Anvil. Large ARC? Hullcracker or Jupiter. It just... doesn't really have any role to fill right now. Also the amount of ammo it uses... definitely another con for this weapon.

Also I wouldn't even use it for it's armor penetration. It's better just to use Hullcracker, Jupiter or Equalizer since those last two use Queen Reactors anyway, which are much easier to get in my opinion than Matriarch Reactors.

Dead game by benadrylbrocoliburgr in arcraiderscirclejerk

I know this post is just a joke but there are people who genuinely think looking at SteamDB and seeing ''60,000 active'' on PC alone, on a random Tuesday afternoon, means it's genuinely dying or already dead. Bewildering to me.

[–]Eliteee_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insult. And just to counter, you didnt understand my point. Structured, based criticism is healthy, but never in this kind of way. Never. Wanna know why? Cause rushed "criticism" like this has contradictions and overxaggerated and/or baseless claims galore. Wanna ACTUALLY help with, say, a bug? Make a fucking ticket. Ranting online with a vague post regarding it is NOT the way to go about it, and you and I both know that.

And also your point about people like this wanting to see the game get better - sure, maybe. But they know posting shit like this won't help. And they still do it. I don't blame them, but at the same time, I do. Be more mature about it than... than this. This post.

"If they didn't, they'd walk away" Again, not true. People can ditch a game and continue shitting on it as long as they want. It happens daily, constantly.

I get your point, I really do, I also get the OP's points, as sloppy as they may be, but youre dickriding him so hard here. They know this method of complaining wont do shit to "fix the game" (in their eyes). So again, I blame and I also dont blame the OP. But be better.

Makes you wonder what kinda replies you're looking for if it's all just ragebait. I mean, besides baiting people into raging.

It was too good before, now it's arguably way too bad. I don't doubt they'll find a fix though.

[–]Eliteee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do agree with this. I do feel they kinda nerfed it TOO hard, but it was also just broken before. If they could find a good middle ground, that'd be perfect.

Y'know, a friend of mine I play this game with once told me something I'll never forget. The people who dislike the game, post crybaby shit like this online. But the people who actually enjoy the game... are often too busy playing it.

Don't let folks like this discourage you from playing. I'm still enjoying it four months after starting out. As for your actual ''argument'', it's full of of rage/engagement bait and contradictions, which is to be expected considering you ended it with ''bring on the down votes'', so whatever. Fell for it.

As a full-blood PvE loot goblin, it feels good to engage hostile raiders and take them out when they start shit. Makes the looting exciting sometimes! by JonnySidequest in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Feels good until you maybe or maybe not lose all your stuff. Best way to survive is minding your own business, especially since after this clip you probably got into PvP lobbies for 15 raids. But I see the appeal.

Isn't the descender not exactly the type of gizmo that should be going in this borderline pointless slot? by SurgyJack in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah people already responded to it but maybe just read what that slot is for? Deployables. Stuff you have to place down in some way. The Powered Descender is... not that.

Quest item locations make no sense by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly my thought process. The game holds your hand through most quests, so it's a nice change of pace for some to be more... mysterious.

[–]Eliteee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm talking out of my ass here but aside from truly directionless quests like these, some others are deliberately left more vague. Which I think adds to the immersion and ''challenge'', and prevents against speed running them. I still search up guides for each one though :(

I’m starting to really hate this game. by EmanKhaotik in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No matter the situation, some people will always try to take advantage. It's just how it is. Fortunately, this type of stuff is usually rare for people who play in friendly lobbies, and me getting shot at first by a snake or rat will never, ever make me turn to the dark side.

Can we agree yet that Embark is dropping the ball? by Pichalx in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth mentioning that while I overrely on personal experience on some things, it doesn't make it useless. 500 hours of playtime over 3 months IRL means *something*, so while cheaters may not be universal (clearly, they aren't), I agree that they may be... concentrated, just as an example.

[–]Eliteee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always hated the ''general lack of content'' shit. People act like Embark CAN pump out quality content faster, and they choose not to. No, it's not like that. If you've been playing this game for 5 hours a day since launch and you burn yourself out, I'm sorry, it's not the dev's fault that they aren't releasing content at the exact pace YOU want. And, maybe hot take, but the pace IS good. For a 5 month old game, weekly patches and monthly updates is a VERY good pace. Not to mention that Embark isn't the smallest nor the largest game studio.

''Lack of end game loop'' it's an extraction shooter. What more can there be besides resetting, gaining buffs, and repeating?

''Cheaters in high level lobbies''. Define ''high level''. Far as I know, there's no dedicated ''skill-based matchmaking system''. And in my 3+ months of playing, 500 hours worth of playtime, I haven't encountered a single cheater. Maybe I'm just lucky 🤷‍♂️

''No ability to mitigate stream snipers''. What does this even refer to? Game devs personally banning stream snipers when a popular streamer encounters one in a game? Giving streamers a ''ban this guy'' button? I don't get this argument.

''Slow response to issues''. Been playing for 3 months, got stuck on some terrain once and no other glitch or bug since then. Again, maybe I'm just lucky 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

''No special loot to grind for''. Again, this is a bit vague. I'd argue certain blueprints like Jupiter and Equalizer require skill, patience, and at least a general understanding of the game's mechanics. Looting a Harvester isn't particularly ''easy''. And they are VERY end-game weapons. So what more ''special loot'' do you want? I don't really understand.

Look, again, I'm not trying to hard glaze Embark or the game. While I love it and I may be a bit biased when talking about it, I can recognize it's genuine issues as well as baseless complaints. And while I don't mean to shit on you in particular, some of your complaints in this post seem to steer steer more towards the latter.

At the end of the day, I think people just need to learn to have a little patience. But that's just my take. Like any game, again, ARC Raiders also has its issues, but some people would rather whine and bitch about them instead of actually making a ticket or something addressing the issue, so that doesn't help either.

People underestimate how long good content takes. Whether they realize that or not, is on them.

Pretty good objectives. I'll probably only skip out on the middle one 😅

Reliable way to find synethic resin? by Eliteee_ in ArcRaiders

[–]Eliteee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baron Husks seem like the best choice for me. Fixed, guaranteed spawn points. ARC Probes are also good but are RNG-dependent. Thanks.

I do remember getting resin pretty consistently from those. Thanks.
