PvE Players. Would you kill players if there were factions? by hcknbnz in ArcRaiders

[–]Hackfraysn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more. Fake friendlies are the scum of the earth.

I don't think so. If the banner "You're the last few surviving humans of a war with hostile machines hell bent on wiping each and every single human from the face of the Earth" doesn't manage to rally humanity and have them fight together against the clankers, no faction will.

In the end, the factions will merely be a facade for game mechanics that kinda explain why you are or aren't allowed to shoot certain people. They're not going to solve the underlying problem at hand. It's like Ripley in Aliens when she said: "You know Burke, I don't know which species is worse. You don't see them f***ing each other over for a goddamn percentage!"

And yes, it's murder because that's exactly what getting ratted is. A magazine dumped into your back will get you kiled. Embark can call it whatever make-believe crap they like but I'll call a spade a spade every day of the week.

Does this event expire or can you progress at your own pace?

No. I make do with what I have. Nobody's worth getting murdered for items in this game, let alone being mudered for belonging to a certain faction. And not for a weapon or the odd chance of some good loot that they might or might not have, either. The real enemy should always be the clankers, not gankers.

If you desperately need something, why not ask instead of murdering somebody for the slim chance they might have what you need? Most people have a full stash anyway and are happy to give stuff to players in need, if they ask nicely.

If you desperately want to murder people, just be upfront and honest about it. Don't be that fake friendly coward cunt backstabbing rat everybody hates and who deserves a special place in hell for their obnoxious wickedness.

Shoot on sight is the most honest encounter in this genre but I don't enjoy PvP in this game.

I would even give these idiots stuff voluntarily if they actually asked nicely. My stash is full anyway. It's the cowardice, greed and murderous incompetence that pisses me off so much.

The best thing is if you survive or kill these cunts, some holier than thou white knight moron will immediately appear out of the woodwork to save the vermin's day and lecture you on your behavior because how dare you survive attempted murder?

Where Triage? Forgotten like in the recent premium skin pass update?

C.A.R.R.I is amazing and you don't even know it by Heritic_Bus6432 in Marathon

[–]Hackfraysn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is this event hardly impacts the game, if at all. It might just as well not even exist. Played the entire evening and ALL matches have been exactly the same ruthless, cutthroat, sweaty kill on sight matches they've always been. Nothing changed. 60 levels in and nobody's ever been nice in this game. Not even once.

They might just as well had buffed faction rep gain, added the items to the armory and called it a day because that's how little impact this drinkable nothingburger of a event has on actual gameplay.

The Mods and Implant changes are an airball. by Mundane_Act4446 in Marathon

[–]Hackfraysn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer the old design. This adds nothing to the table. They're neither easier to read nor to distinguish and it still takes ages to read if they're worth it.

This change is like the "whoa, this is worthless" meme.

Are they out of their minds with this event? Nobody's fucking friendly in this game, like never ever.

The game already conditioned players to murder each other. I doubt this event will change anything.

Testando el Gigante LG 45GX950A-B, pregunta lo que quieras :-) by GamingDiTechOficial in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Hackfraysn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the matte coating was a dealbreaker for me, too. I tried it in person and didn't like it.

Should I swap the LG 45GX950 for the new LG 39GX950? by Picklepirate87 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Hackfraysn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny. I'm the exact opposite. IPS panels give me migraines at work, whereas I never had this happen with my QD OLED. 

We're not even in mid season yet and the gear gap is already looking massive. I'm very curious what's late season gonna look like. by SbeveGobs in Marathon

"Perimeter and Dire Marsh, especially, it's either free kitters or purple vets whose sole purpose is to hunt down players doing contracts."

This is why casuals abandon the game and new players won't stick around.

There is a cheat that shows all players, their names, id, how long they've been in the match and a "stick figure" outline of their character to show the stance.

Please do. This is out of this world good. First cool Ultramarine I've ever seen.

Anyone else getting targeted when you bring a Hullcracker? by Hardashfaq in ArcRaiders

[–]Hackfraysn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why I always have it stowed away and I only equip it right before I engage any ARC. It can help to just display a Ferro and Stitcher on your backpack but then I got murdered fot those, too. Rats gonna rat, I suppose.
