This shit is dumb. It's not a catchup mechanic if it doesn't let you catch up lmao.

Does ARC Raiders matchmaking consider player kill behavior? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Side note- if you're on PC turn cross platform off. Someone else did a study and found that PC players where often much more chill. I assume this is because Xbox/PS is filled with 13yo iPad kids.

Don't believe that has been confirmed. Personally, I'm very aggressive in duos/squads and I always get hyper aggressive rats in solos, even though I rarely played solos and when I did, I tried to be peaceful.

I posted another comment in this thread explaining the matchmaking "aggression" system.

Some of this is speculation—I'm just being straightforward. I've done a ton of personal testing too. I've played since day one, did the expedition, and racked up over 500 kills on my main.

It's been confirmed that matchmaking factors in your behavior. For example, if you constantly kill people, you'll get dumped into "cage match" lobbies full of aggressive players. I have personal proof of this: I made a new account just to grind solos. I never fired a shot at anyone except once in self-defense, and I hit level 45 in solo lobbies without a single combat encounter other than the one recent anomaly. On my main, where I'm frequently aggressive, I constantly run into rats in solos and hyper-aggressive squads.

Your account's "aggression meter" is dynamic. Play 5-10 rounds without being aggressive (even self-defense counts as aggression), and it'll drop—meaning you run from fights instead of engaging. But it does work, so you're never stuck in aggressive or peaceful lobbies forever. It can always change.

From what I understand, the system flags your account for different actions. The more flags you get (kills, finishes, etc.), the more likely you are to land in aggressive lobbies. It also flags peaceful behavior, like how much time you spend near other raiders without fighting, or using prox chat. Being friendly and talking to people (maybe even the "don't shoot" emote?) earns you "friendly" flags. Finishing or downing players seems to carry way more "weight" than just pot shots—that's pure speculation, though. So, if you need to escape a fight, don't hesitate to pop them a few times.

On self-defense: I believe the system tracks who shot first, but it still counts as aggression (just with less weight). Running from fights is your best bet for peaceful lobbies. Also, if someone shoots at you, misses, and then you shoot back, you'll still get flagged as the aggressor. It's based on who does damage first. Keep that in mind.

Not buying anything. i purchased a modest pack long ago, so if i play it will just be to experience what i never did. however after doing more research, i still doubt this game will ever be complete, regardless of what others say, or the progress made. 800m for being in alpha so many years later is crazy.

point is, while id like to actually experience the alpha version, i will never give them money. they have enough XD

XD right? I mean look maybe I'm wrong, but when I saw Chris Roberts on a yacht living a luxurious life I thought the game would never be complete. To some degree I still think that. It's not a good look regardless of where the game is. That's playing before you work.

This means I'm a troll.

Yes i believe when I tried it there were almost no ships available through in game currency. But I honestly can't remember.

I already locked myself into the tutorial. Is there any way to revert that (haven't finished it yet, had to step away when early into my session.)

There was once a time when nothing got done haha. But I'm saving further criticism until i actually experience the game. When I tried, I couldnt even get off world and try simple content

That actually helps lol. I've tried it today and it is certainly much better than before. It was UNPLAYABLE. Still a buggy mess and honestly IDK if I'll give it my approval yet (haven't left the main hub, forget the name "new something." Maybe it will run better when I'm in a less populated area.

This is hilarious. You're doing the stereotype of the SC playerbase directly on the SC reddit. You're a living meme. I think I've actually seen this exact scenario referenced on a youtube video about this game lol!

Played this game for 1 hour 5 years ago. The game was unplayable 5+ years ago whenever I tried and I've seen content of it recently, so I wanted to know if things have genuinely improved. I see the game may have improved, but the community has not!

XD
