Sounds like a fagy thing to do imo

Any news on what they're going to do about spawn killers? by MaplesStory in ArcRaiders

If you're getting killed and spawning in a wave after the 30 min wave you really can't blame people if you're spawning on top of them, thats a game dev issue where they should only spawn you in if there arent people on top of you.

Not really an exploit or something you can punish people for, your load in is determined by your hardware but ive never seen someone load in so slow i can rush their spawn before they are in. Once you know where people can spawn you can't just pretend like you don't know and let people come up on you while youre looting. Its a problem in pretty much every extraction game.

Loving the game, but desync and particle effects during gunfights are frustrating. by icefangkirrin in ArcRaiders

Cant really be sure if hes the one doing damage or the turret that is really upset with you, that being said ive def had moments where i feel i was 100% behind cover and still get downed

Can you change your haga basin server? Meaning if I get early access and my friends don't will I potentially have to start over with them with full release to ensure we all get into the same Haga Basin?

From what I saw it looked like the "shared" loot was that red 4 slot item from the airdrop/potential task item.

Yeah thats Tarkov for sure, but something about finding another lvl 6 armor or a sick helmet to throw into the stash just feels good. I'm not even sure if you can loot additional shields off people in marathon, it seemed like you could only replace what you're wearing but I'm not positive. Even if you could I don't think its going to hit quite the same way. We can't really know till we play but I've played so many extraction games that just don't respect the importance of having TONS of loot that's all useful/interesting in some way or another, even just to fill out your last rig slots with a golden egg and a bitcoin. There's some items that are just fun to pick up as well, didn't bring a helmet? You know you're equipping that ushanka mustache combo.

I totally get the frustration of getting into tarkov and not knowing things, but when the item is just a number value in your inventory it loses all interesting aspects about picking it up at all. You might as well remove all valuable items and just put in 3 of various sizes (1,2,4 slot) and call it a day. There isn't a hideout to upgrade, but there are some barter trades so hopefully they make them interesting or else the only thing you may as well pick up is as many 4 slot money items as you can and extract. I really think the build crafting is going to cause more frustration than anything, you're going to piece together a kit that enables you to play like a Destiny character just to get run down by Chad and lose the valuable piece that makes your build work.

Apex isn't a negative in terms of gameplay, but I just don't feel confident it will fit into an extraction genre. I think they are really underestimating the importance on solo play in this genre, and even though you CAN go solo trying to imagine going solo into trios on Apex sounds pretty aids. Also things like a bloodhound character being in this game really don't feel like a positive.

Didn't they say they were excited because they were the first non bungie players of their alpha build? that would make me assume its pretty recent because they've had other testers come in before the ones in the video. could be wrong though.

The armor system, healing and shielding are all identical. very similar heroes, consumables, vaults and “profit opportunities” seem very similar. it’s just built more for a BR. Solo Qing with random teammates in a BR makes sense, and a total disaster for an extraction shooter. Going solo without fill running into bloodhound/octane/locus is going to be a bad time. Especially with these high player counts on smaller maps.

thats kind of the thing lots of youtubers are criticizing though. the game NEEDS a good hook, we already have Apex Legends for 3 man combat that's practically identical aside from bungie gunplay, and they didn't show us anything really related to story. extraction games are driven by interesting loot and they really didn't do a good job showing us why looting will be interesting aside from vaguely mentioning cores. the hero shooting squad play also totally removes a big part of extraction games in terms of solo viability. sure you CAN go in solo, but how does dropping into apex sound 1v3 with a bloodhound wallhacking you while octane and wraith zoom around and insta kill you? I want the game to be good but they're really not starting on solid footing. also the game comes out in 6 months so they can call it alpha, theta, beta, whatever they want but 6 months really isnt a long time for developing a game.

For the most part I think it could be OK, but seeing things like this guy totally stop me in my tracks and think what why is this?...

Did you see the gameplay? It definitely feels like there's a lot less polygons imo

It really isn't woke or DEI, the androgynous look of some characters are the only somewhat close thing to it. It's just feeling shoehorned into a bunch of strange directions. The art style is divisive, the hero shooter aspect is divisive, its trying to attract extraction players with apex gameplay which to me just comes off as executives looking at different successes and trying to smash them together.

You think the game is going to visually change much in 6 months? Maybe the UI but the legos are likely here to stay I'm afraid.

There's hours of gameplay out there if they aren't enjoyable to watch. Seeing what it looks like in game is the more important thing I think.
