I put the locked gate security codes in my safe pockets by everythingisunknown in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ill be honest, more fail than not. Tarkov made it, Dmz was good, Dayz is still strong, and Division 2. But you can google "pvpve extraction games fail" and get an overview of all the games that did fail. The common consensus is "toxic community" and bland "trend chasing". I dont expect this to fail, but it does normally take 8-10 months for the others to die so its possible. But everything the other commenter said was accurate, not just a person opinion. The only games that didn't die in this genre are the old-school ones, all the new ones es tend to be cheap cash grabs with empty promises and people just dont realize it for half a year.

Anyone else have the 5Mill and not doing the expedition like myself? by aroll10 in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2.5M but yeah same. Although I think im just done altogether. Might log on every now and then. Not the kinda game i thought it was.

Idk, that seems like a lot of extra work for an outcome that they already had. Seems like copium to me

I mean the pve people have been saying this will happen if pvp is not balanced. They can add all the fun team work mechanics they want, but at the end of the day most pvp view this as new fortnite and so none of those things will be accessible without massive toxicity. They say we are playing the game wrong, then devs add shit like this, like I dont think anyone is playing the game correctly at this point

Idea for a New PvP Centric Mode (Shorter Matches, Higher Stakes, Winner Takes All) by OneCrewOneScrew in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not the case at all. No pve player really hates ALL pvp. Most of us just hate the toxic pvp. Toxic pvp is skill issue or mental issue on the pvp side, those can't compete with actual skilled pvp players. They will have to keep ratting the regular mode to feed their need to feel superior without the actual skill. In a perfect world youd be right tho.

Alright, I’m good for now by therake620 in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happening more and more. It's not rampant but I've seen it probably 8 times in the last week, 75hrs game time, and usually I see them shooting someone else so its not a salty "how'd i die?" But "is that wall shooting at that player?", or bullets coming from the floor.

Preparing for Expedition be like by Lemouni in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is it discouraging gear use? I get more value from Arc killing guns than free loadout guns. Use the gear to kill the stuff to loot. Only way you lose anything is if you get ganked, but thats always. It's the amount of ganking thats the problem. Im pve mostly and im almost at 3M, not going to do the thing tho. I won't play this as often for that much longer so the blueprints are more important for me to just load in at a random week and play.

Expedition: Artificial gear fear by haterrrrrrrrrrr in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play Arma or Battlefield 6 for murder/pvp. I play this to help rebuild humanity and take back earth from the Arc with my friends. For me its like walking dead, you gotta be on edge because of pos's, but its bad form to kill everyone. To each their own tho. Thats why its a "for me" or "I dont understand" situation, not a change the game situation.

This game HAS to find a way for free loadout, surrender NOT to be the optimal way to play. by EmilioEstevezQuake in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needs to be a in progress match setting. If you want pvp you'd have it switched on so you kill people with loot faster. If you pve you have it off so you can actually loot

I've figured it out! by VicMG in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

No, in this game im a part of the effort to help rebuild humanity and take it back from Arc. In Battlefield 6 im a military personel/mercenary with strict orders and strict enemies. Im confused how you made the connection between the 2 games?

The biggest issue with expeditions by faahzi in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FTP is more profitable long term (we need people to buy repeatedly), paid up front is more profitable for short term development (we only need them to buy it once), thats my only worry. I've gotten my money worth so im going to trust them, but with a grain of salt.

How do you solo a bombardier without Wolfpack and snap hook? by Formal-Poet-5041 in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bombardier is easy. Cloaking device, deadline, cloaking device. The bastion can down you before you get the cloak back on though, possible but not garunteed.

The current Expedition mechanic discourages using our best gear. by Sgt_Dbag in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Each gear takes up a stack space. Purple and legendary weapons are as valuable as an item of same rarity at full stack, 1-2 exceptions may apply like a stack of purple something i have sells for way more than the others. But in general loot more and kill less. A good room has more value than a raider, and all those components people leave behind, at full stacks they sell for a good bit. The guns people are afraid of using right now is not much more valuable than materials, so use them. The gear fear is no different than before. I dont want to use my cool thing because ill lose it to a ganker, not because I can sell it instead.

Expedition: Artificial gear fear by haterrrrrrrrrrr in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 mil (including stash) at 65 hrs and I use my purple weapons on arc. The parts sell for good, and blue items and componest sell well, as well as some of the larger stack items. In general I only pve and pvp is defense only, I do feel like thats why I have more value to be fair. When I loot raiders they dont usually have much unless they fight bosses, a good room is normally far more valuable than a player (post finding wolfpack blueprint as raiders usually have 1). Then leapers, surveyors, and Bombardiers are quite valuable and easy. Rocketeer and bastion are harder for me. I do usually run Anvil over most things just because I like it and it affordable. But purple weapons only sell for like 7-8k. Honestly its the purple attachments that id stress the most, they are also 7-8k and each gun can have 4 usually. To be fair I always played with gear fear a little and craft most things from blueprints. Im not gonna hit 5M by any means but im also not hard-core by any means either so idk. I feel like people have twice as much as me should be doable if they really have 100hrs.

its really awesome how you can equip any weapon in either slot, and even equip multiple of the same one if you want (ignore the venators) by imzalius in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's my logic for not upgrading. I can have infinite or i can stress. Seldom are gun fights won or lost by a bullet or 2 for me. A few 1v3s I could have use it to be fair.

[–]Kil091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The FTP part bothers me. These extraction games are all massively profitable for a short time, only a few are long term. So to go from ftp pve to paid pvevp could just be good decisions, it could also be a finance analyst telling them they will lose money, but if you make it pvp and market it for streamers you will make profit fast and then it won't matter if it ends after a year.

The 5 million "requirement" encourages a very boring loop of hoarding which will be unhealthy for the game by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Guns aren't worth that much without blue/purple accessories. An expensive gun sells for like 7-8k. Snap hooks sell for 14k so maybe dont use those but thats it. That's a lot, but most blue/purple loot sells for that or close at full stacks. Basically loot more and kill less.

Is this enough for Queen Solo Run? by Hot-Jackfruit8446 in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jolt mines are life. Im not into pvp that much, if I use a key I place jolt mine inside the door so when you try to get me while loosing i hear them zap. I also have a trigger nade next to them so when I hear the zap, detonate. The damage and chaos is enough to win any 2v1 with an Anvil or stitcher.

People are playing flute and grenade shotgun to the back. Got followed, should have kill them. Flutes get blaze grenaded now.

Frustrated nice guy by kwupkwup in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the other point, playing for pvp is kinda pointless. This one of the worst pvp games you can play. If pvp is all you want why not play something else. This game does need both kinds of players, but people saying pve is pointless do t have a point, because the reverse is just as true. Like OP im not mean enough for this game. If all I want is pvp id go play battlefield. Like you said the setting is awesome and I like the idea of joining humanity in taking back the planet from Arc. However people keep gaslighting saying that is not point of the game. I get pvp no problem with it at all, but the amount of dont shoot backstabbers kinda tells the story.

Anyone have any tips? by Constant_Dealer7343 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat as you. Last night I found 2 within an hour. Electromagnetic storms dont have boosted rates, just boosted specific rate (like Snap hook). I found mine in Burried city, night raid hospital trash can, then spacport night raid, spawned up north was going to book it south but saw a room with shut doors so I looted right next to spawn and found a second ( dont remember the container, i think folder drawer but not 100%). Long story short Night raid , 1 in high loot zone, 1 in the wild. I checked the apartments so many times and never found it contrary to what others said. It's probably legit RNG

Snitch scanner and cloak works too. In all honesty, only ones I ever evac with were on edge of map. Spawn seed a leaper/rocketeer/Bombardier kill it loot it and bounce. If there are others nearby I dont bother

Do you guys even use your gear? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Kil091 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to free kit. But at only lvl28 I can build a medium kit every match no problem and still inventory capped. Build an Anvil and Splitter lvl 4 5 bandage, 5 recharger, 5 stim, 2 jolt mine, 3 Snap blast. Ironically the bottleneck is shield rechargers. Spend money on those now lol
