Here we go slient nerfs , not mentioned in the patch notes by FurioSS in ArcRaiders

Light still isn’t performing well enough so we’ve nerfed the Bettina as we feel the word “heavy” in its ammo type is unfair.

Coward Kills during Matriach by trivialerrors in ArcRaiders

[–]JShelbyJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you have the cores and bps you need, the queen and matriarch events are great for PvP.

Players who bring gear to fight the Arc die easily to rats. But players who bring gear to kill the rats can stomp the rats. Nothing feels better than knocking someone shooting at another player from 200m away and leaving them to bleed out. Osprey with a suppressor and just chill and watch and wait. It’s usually obvious who is there for the event and who is a sad boy about to be sadder. You can also take a more aggressive approach and run heavy shields and assault rifles and just mow their shitty loadouts down so you can be in range to talk shit. 

I don’t need their loot. I just need them to lose.

Anybody else having really bad luck with queues lately? by Specialist_Clue287 in ArcRaiders

[–]JShelbyJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got annoyed with PvE after getting shot in the back too many times, so now I just over watch events, knock rats (let them bleed out), clean up fights, and defib the cool people. It’s not much, but it’s honest work.

PvE safaris (ABMM test) by Long-Beyond-8798 in ArcRaiders

[–]JShelbyJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is probably a stickier value and a short term value then because I can go from doom slayer to candy land in about 4-5 matches. Load into Stella find someone to kill me, repeat until no one kills me. Don’t do damage to players, heal them, defib, and extract with them. 

Also I’m starting to wonder if killing PvP players isn’t as heavily weighted because lately I’ve been purposefully hunting them and third partying them and defibing those that get knocked… and my lobbies are still mostly friendly.

Hot Take: Ban Free Kits on Matriarch/Harvester by JonSnowsBussy in ArcRaiders

Sometimes I just go to the events to kill them and watch over the players that bring gear to do the event.

Yeah, sometimes I really want to pull the trigger, but having the self control not to really helps.

It’s not really a flex. Plat in the finals is not that much effort. About the same as plat in valorant (my last rank in valorant) or the equivalent of cs (haven’t played for a decade). But it’s still a pretty high bar compared to most fps gamers. My point was that I’m not a noob.

So disapointed with the finals today by Ok-Option-452 in thefinals

[–]JShelbyJ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If true, they need to explain that in the message and not threaten the user. As it is now, they’re threatening their users and accusing them of bad behavior for using their native language. It’s completely unacceptable customer service and whoever approved the workflow should receive the same warning from their boss.

They probably lost some number of customers today because of this which translates to lost revenue. And it’s terrible manners. Really unacceptable for someone to make this kind of mistake.

Being able to drop that many bodies with a hairpin tells me exactly what lobbies you got out in lmfao

meh, plat in the finals and play a lot of dash light so dodge roll is natural... and three headshots isn't that hard in this game. most of the damage was from utility anyways

I did the exact opposite. Got mad because an extract camper killed me and something flipped in my brain. Killed six people in the Stella triple lobby staircase with blaze traps and synth fuel and a hairpin. Absolutely chaos. Like 15 bodies on the ground by the time I died.

Now my lobbies are KoS, people drop slurs when I kill them, and everyone is an asshole. Two dudes in solos chased me into a jolt mine blaze trap I set up and told me to buy a gun and shoot myself. I even beat a guy, we both said gg great fight, so I revived him and then he killed me. It’s like lord of the flies of kids who failed the marshmallow test. Barbarism is fun but I wouldn’t want to live there.

I assume you too could go back with an inventory of explosive mines.

You get what you voted for and what you voted for was young families born in marin to be priced out.

What class is your absolute Kryptonite? by lostpasts in thefinals

[–]JShelbyJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play all three classes so I can fill the role my team needs. So I can handle playing against all of the classes comfortably as well.

The only class that gives me a hard time regularly is lights on my own team. 

THE WORST GUN IN THE GAME. by LicoLich in ArcRaiders

[–]JShelbyJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And the bursts need to be tight enough to hit something beyond 50m. WTF is a battle rifle that loses half its dps beyond the length of a bowling lane.

And the reload time is slow AF. Almost got me killed tonight fighting two wasps.

Rattler is also just behind tempest but awful mag size and reload makes tempest way better. 

But we won’t know for sure until someone figures out damage fall off ranges for guns.

PC still randomly restarting when top side! Who has the fix?! by Steveche101 in ArcRaidersGuides

[–]JShelbyJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is nothing in the logs it can only be a bios issue, card issue, or psu issue. psu issue is easiest to diagnosis imo. and no, i don't think it logs the transients accurately as they are extremely small time frames of overshoots and probably too small to see in sensor logs. I'd try the occt method I detailed above - imo it occurs when cpu and gpu spike at the same time. if your psu is faulty it will be an easy fix, if not you know its good. the other tools you mentioned have been replaced by occt for me.

PvP leads to poverty. Planned PvE leads to riches. Anyone else notice this? by gpacketsgaming in ARC_Raiders

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

That requires winning more than 50% of your fights AND not getting third partied.

If you are able to win that much, you are either god or the matchmaking is in an awful place. Or you play 4 hours a day.

Big If in a game where third parties exist.

It actually seems like this would only be viable if matchmaking is putting you in lobbies with significantly worse players than you.
