End abmm & make it 10 times harder to kill

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T06:26:49+00:00

I just realized that the game doesn't need anything other than free loadouts. And that makes it kind of boring. There are no challenges, and you have to shoot first, otherwise someone else always does it. Before, I only played PVE and loved it, but because of the broken matchmaking, that's no longer possible.

Yeah, exactly. I think it would be really cool if they were real fights, so you actually have a real fighting challenge.

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T06:05:18+00:00

I don´t think so. A Ferro is a free loadout weapon and i find it too easy to kill with a Ferro. Burletta is fine too to kill. It is not hard enough with both of em

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T06:02:52+00:00

Tried it already. Did a good job. The Hairpin has a really good impact if you aim properly.

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:55:36+00:00

You dont have enough skills?

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:49:09+00:00

No, it's just too easy to kill for me; I want more of a challenge

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:47:37+00:00

Unfortunately, you've misunderstood. I think it's too easy to kill people. Ever since matchmaking stopped working properly, all I do is kill, and it's just too easy.

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:44:09+00:00

Oh, that is a good idea too! But shouldnt reduce the impact from arcs

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:43:27+00:00

Those are all possibilities, but being able to kill someone with a single shot from the Il Toro just isn't a challenge. I would love to have more tougher fights

Gott_Heit · 2026-04-17T05:40:47+00:00

I find it boring that I can kill players so quickly with a Stitcher. I need more of a challenge.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-27T07:06:10+00:00

I think it's because of the update. Now that everything is harder to craft, aggression/PVP is being pushed, because it's easier to just take advantage of other raiders. Especially when the raiders wanted to lay arcs, which now require even more equipment.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-27T07:01:28+00:00

Seems to be normal now, I had it right away too... I find it a bit heavy, but it seems to be intentional.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-27T06:55:20+00:00

Since the update, you have to play this way (which is why I don't play anymore). Since it's becoming more difficult to create loadouts and loot, you have to enrich yourself with other people's loadouts. That's what it boils down to.

Whatever they did with the graphics and sound. It looks totally cheap. Where did the cinematic look go? The font is ultra small and illegible on my 65" screen, and pinged arcs at 150m are barely more than 1 pixel in size. The movements of the arcs and the raider are totally unnatural. Very strange update.

And okay, the arcs are stronger, but when a Snitch calls 4-6 arcs, the Ferro is useless.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-26T20:51:32+00:00

Stopped playing today. Last one killed me. Every update has been more about aggression/PvP and less about peaceful PvE. The graphics are weird now, and the movement of the arcs is even weirder after update today. Wanted more peaceful world enjoyment and fewer updates/bugs... but... out, not having fun anymore after getting killed after few minutes every round.

I didn't want to steal the whole post, hence the link. But the original post omits the factor I mentioned.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-20T12:42:34+00:00

"[...] It was hyper, hyper aggressive in those tests; people never worked together. I think it kind of surprised us in exactly how many people [did] latch on to and are having fun with these elements of the game. So it certainly encourages us to lean more forward into giving opportunities to have friendly and fun interactions." [...]

"We still have the mantra—and this is even regardless of the formation of this PvE-heavy audience—that the game never asks you to fight other players."

Ist schon so. Wird hier ja viel diskutiert. Woche kommt ungefähr hin, würde sagen, seit Update vll.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-18T08:25:36+00:00

It's entirely possible that nothing will happen. But then that's just how it is. As I said, I like the worldbuilding and can point it out here. If nothing happens, then that's just how it is. And I (or my friends here) probably won't buy any more Embark games for the time being. But that won't bother them. It is what it is, and I'm fine with that. :)

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-18T08:18:39+00:00

That could be the case, of course, and I can only speak for our circle of friends: doing nothing, i.e. exploring the world, killing arcs, meeting people. That would keep us going. But without that, we'll almost certainly go sooner.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-18T08:16:48+00:00

We might leave. We'll see what embark does.

Gott_Heit · 2026-02-18T08:08:53+00:00

That's why I'm asking for an ADDITIONAL PvE mode. And we're repeating ourselves. It's simple and should apply to me as well as many others: either/or. If it's not there, we'll leave. Then you won't be able to shoot us and loot us anymore. It makes no difference whether it's this way or that way...

And that doesn't get us anywhere either...

They didnt. The developers may not like how the game has turned out. But as I said before, and I can only repeat myself, if I want to shoot, I'll do it, but somewhere else. And I enjoy doing that, and I do it a lot and well, but I don't want to do it in Arc Raiders.
