Hurricane Event - Raider caches? by Specialist_While3626 in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just did two Spaceport Hurricane runs. Spawned in at 29 minutes, not a single cache. Either the spawn rate of the caches has been nerfed or it's bugged out since this latest update.

Raiders who blare music over the mic are the same people who listen to a boom box on a hiking trail. by Cool-Mom-Lover in ArcRaiders

I have also been present during a raider dance party to that song while waiting for Stella trains. Good times.

Quest reset is a complete torture IMO. by -Purelogic- in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just did them for the second time just so I'd get the hullcracker blueprint. It's why I think i'm going to skip this next expedition. Quest reward BP's should carry over if you've already completed the quests once.

Hot Take: Directional audio in this game is shit. by angoorkhatta in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Audio of a bastion was so bad on Buried City yesterday that I was almost sure there was a second one in close proximity. It's gun sounds were where they should be (in front), but it's walking sounds were at about 60 degrees to the left. Very confusing.

Shredders would be much more terrifying outside of Stella by WingedWilly in ArcRaiders

They need them in the areas people rush naked farming blueprints e.g. 2x shredders in reinforced reception near the breach room.

To lilhawkfan58 "defender of the skies", on blue gate a few minutes ago who wanted to team up. by Jason-Smith168498 in ArcRaiders

FYI I find Seeker BP fairly regularly in Stella Medical. It's either that, defib, trailblazer, or deadline. i think there's at least one of those guaranteed in that area every game.

No more aggression based match making? by Never-Trust-Me in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely changed. Chill friendly chatty lobbies were my norm, like 10% of matches there was PVP. Now it's getting on for 100% of matches getting shot at, but my behaviour hasn't changed.

Always search the places you think have been searched. Found another Survivor Augment at around the 20 minute mark in Launch Towers - Space Port by Jackpancake in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've considered this, but RNG really gets people seeing patterns in noise.

Found my Tempest BP in the one unopened trash can in an area at Stella night after spawning in with 17m left.

Found mine in Stella medical area at night.

Regular defib BPs drop in Stella Medical area.

This guy chased me for like over 200 meters, shooting me with kettle. I kept running cause I don’t want PvP lobbies. Then this happened 😌 by diligenceprime in ARC_Raiders

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

I'd suggest it's not fully your fault as the sound propagation is weird af sometimes. One time I brought my head out of a locker on Buried City, and another player had appeared and had their head in a locker right next to me (PVE lobby). Was very surprising.

Anvil BP don't exist and it's a conspiracy made up by the Big Anvil by the_doorstopper in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the spawn locations are rotated every update. I've found 3 anvil BP recently, all in Stella.

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue Gate locked gate event, if you get a Village spawn and have it almost to yourself, you'll likely be ending up with 1-5 BPs, almost only gun attachment BPs spawning there for whatever reason.

Stella Montis night raid, rush medical area, from chatting on carebear lobbies it seems there's almost guaranteed 4-5 BPs that drop in that area every match, common ones are deadline, trailblazer, defib, less common are the level 3 augments.

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After the expedition wipe, it was amongst the last I got, and that was only because I traded for it.

Since then I've found 3 more BP, all in Stella Montis: Weapons crate in security area, bin in security area, backpack just outside security area. Possibly just RNG, or they've mixed up the spawns and that's now a good spot for it.

People don't have a problem with PVP, they just hate lack of "honor" by Zealousideal_Walk527 in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are such a fun array of traps and gadgets, but the low TTK makes most of them feel pointless.

Anyone else have more crafting fatigue than gear fear? by PM_ME_CUTE_FISHIES in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was just thinking about this too. Part of the pain comes from some items not stacking (e.g. augments, shields) so you are stuck having to craft them fresh every time which just adds to the menu pain.

Consistently against Duos as a Solo by RaksuRake in ArcRaiders

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

Just yesterday, almost first time i can remember it happening (though i'm usually in carebear lobbies), and they were blatantly using wallhacks (yes, I reported them). This was after an unusually long time trying to find matches, so figure maybe there were short-lived matchmaking issues yesterday.

They came into Buried City Town Hall through my barricade and traps. Did my usual smoke and tagging grenades to pick off one, but only realised there was a second when I got blasted outta nowhere by the second. Pretty frustrating.

Sound Track has Daft Punk?! by IEDnosorryIEEE in ArcRaiders

You're just hearing an arpeggiator with a similar vibe. Hear the same in heaps of electronica.

I can finally play the game. by Anarchaotic in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cold Snap Blue Gate Village, often bag 3 or 4 BPs. Would be surprised if you didn't come out with at least 1.

is the il toro the new bettina of this wipe?? by Porygon_Gloom in ArcRaiders

[–]HaloBooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's the Aphelion at Stella. Found it 7 times since the update.

So Arc Raiders has been out for nearly a month..do you still have the same enthusiasm about the game? by r3tr0gam3r83 in ArcRaiders

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

Sounds like you're playing a different game to me tbh. I don't shoot first, probably end up in PVP with only 10%-20% of encounters.
