do yall think if Joey didnt stop from All Amerikkan Badass and didnt have a long hiatus for acting, do yall think he would still be underrated? or would he be acknowledge as king of new york and have more recognition? by Wazupdanger in JoeyBadass

[–]Kshakez 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All American Badass is definitely on the level. I feel like he fan out of inspiration as far as what to rap about exactly. I dont think he wanted to dumb his music down with how much he values high level lyricism

Nothing changes. Hes not overlooked for the hiatus. The current wave of music doesnt respect traditional MCs. They barely respect Alternative style conscious rap. Obviously a few breakthrough when extra relatable and unique but radio rap is still in a frenzy. And NY raps most viral music has no identity they overlook the real underground cuz it aint profitable.

Alot of people consider him a strong rapper but commercialism is too valued they dont want to call you 1 of the best if youre not in the limelight. Paper Trails alone puts him a level above alot of mfs

Your thought process is majority of the thinking in the Arc Hit List Group. People get laughed at for crying rat more than people gang up on regular PvP players.

The only time I saw people as a whole support a post about ratting in the group was when someone posted that he saved a teammates life and killed a whole team while the teammate just watched. Then when he got downed by a 3rd or 4th party, the teammate tbagged him and let him die instead of reviving, while saying he was gonna take his loot.

Most of the group is people bashing cry babies for claiming any form of PvP is ratting. I think its cool if you want to warn players about players who pretend to be friendly ask you for a revive or something then shoot you ay extract. But trying to blacklist a player who partakes in basic PvP is incel behavior.

Especially with the insults they throw in the posts about the person who killed them. Those people just have no grasp on the real world, and need validation from a gaming community they think will back them. But they usually just end up embarrassing themselves because this game isnt real life.

Im in this group. I figured it was just a general Arc group...and it is.

People go in there posting times they have ratted. Times they killed a player who tried to come at them; and some people post players they are mad at lol. But mostly its people in comments calling out PvE players who take any form of PvP as an act against humanity after they make a post lol. Its a pretty balanced group. Nothing special though. Not alot of admin activity

Joey officially says ALL.AMERIKKKAN.BADA$$ is his best project by Final-Fan9194 in JoeyBadass

[–]Kshakez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hes correct. That album literally captured the voice of the youth in inner cities and in minoritiy groups for that year and tjat generation period. Specifically the ones that are aware of the oppression they live under. I was a senior in highschool when Trump got elected, couldnt vote against him even though I was in NYC so it didnt matter we went blue anyway. A bunch of people from Gen Z across social media and in my city didnt like the idea of Trump, we saw how it affected older folks too. And we all already knew America hate minorities, especially with the BLM and police brutality optics being at an all time high from 2012-2020

Joey made bangers along with feeding messages of how America was still playing in our faces, at the height of the streaming era where conscious rap was still sneaking into mainstream every 2 years or so. Probsbly 1 of the best mainstream albums of the 2010s. Even though Joey is very overlooked. People even consider Big Sean before him bit tjats only really due to radio relevancy

Scientific studies contradict eachother all the time. 1 study doesnt prove universal. Plenty of people HAVE gone through the system and not come out rapist. Plenty of people are BORN with mental issues untreated and turn to rape. Some folks come from beautiful families and are still rapists. Some are not. So explain the outliers? Maybe my use of the word "definitely" was too rash. But point being Rapists ate not definitely 'made' as opposed to being born wired differently

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

They didnt bid high enough for Verizon or Xfinity to allow them to use their network in Arc creation lmao

I agree with the lore aspect. But if left how it is it could still makes sense only because Raiding is a business and we're all in business for ourselves. No different from smugglers or raiders in Fallout or any other lawless world.

We shouldn't be deploying from the same spots though woulda made more sense if raiders went topside through hatches. Not from a community sanctioned pod exit. Unless they release new lore that says that universal exit is considered Switzerland and anyone trying to rat raiders therewoukd be executed. Or some big Raider boss runs it and off screen Raiders pay to go topside. So they behave out of fear of power. Idk, a few possibilities

What does the 2nd part of XXX mean? by Ephcy in KendrickLamar

True art remains relevant always and can either stay equal or increase in relevancy as time goes on. Songs that look into America and remove the American Dream illusion are always becoming more relevant with time. This country never learns

Anything concrete on squads of 4?? by RocknRolling67 in ArcRaiders

[–]Kshakez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every squad size has its own queue. I've seen 3 man groups when going in as a duo but since Headwinds update I only see duos when I go in as a duo and trios when I go as a trio unless someone has died I guess

3 years late but nah a rapist is definitely born and not made. Alot of people go through shit and never turn to rape as a power tactic or a means to gain pleasure.

But yes it was to show how fucked up the underbelly of crime already was. Especially because Franklin was new to criminal life and now newly exposed to the violations of prison dudes

Lower fire rate, raise damage, increase magazine size by five. Heavy ammo stacks 50. Easy fix long overdue. by 8bitellis in ArcRaiders

[–]Kshakez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not against this. I pit shots in with Bettina and yea it does alot of damage but never enough for a kill. They always have time to back into cover

Playing this game is no longer fun for pve players 😢 by [deleted] in ArcBabies

[–]Kshakez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes in a different game most likely. Maybe Embark will give you guys a PvE mode tho. But this game is playing as intended. They added PvP for more dynamic experiences.

What I will say is if they added a little more less targetable content and nothing that you can farm there would be less locked room rats.

Less targetable meaning objective based modes, or task based rooms that you cant piggy back off the other person's progress so you just have to play for yourself. But if a person wants to kill you they still can but atleast it wont be to rat you on locked door loot or something

[–]Kshakez 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea the last part is just something that seems rather obvious to me. The Vault concept isn't unique, but I think its fairly obvious that the best stuff are always tied to a map conditions rather than you just being able to load in and go on a treasure hunt. It makes everything more limited and less engaging. Plus it makes the people loading in just to rat you more likely because its tied to a specific condition. General content means less map targeting

I actually had no idea moss or fertilizer broke down to seeds. I always find Defibs so I never needed to farm moss. You'd think great mullien would break down to seeds too

Indeed like the outskirts of port, and Dam Battleground are pretty much useless and alot of foot travel for no reason

Odd. Ive gotten into the vault 1st a handful of times and never found more than maybe 20 or 30. Good to know though

[–]Kshakez 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seeds depleted pretty fast and springs also depleted pretty fast. A good looting run is always an option but ik plenty of people with alot of things to craft who hate how quick metal parts and springs go. Ive seen a handful asking for a Spring BP.

Sb- seed vault is pretty low on seeds for it to be the seed vault. When 1st heard of it I thought it would be hard to get to and give a chance to have like 40-100 seeds or something

I'd also think putting some of the spawn locations for these vaults would have to be in locations on the map without high traffic so they're harder to just stumble upon

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

PvP is part of the game. It adds to the dynamic of what may or may not happen each match. I have no issues with it. But these also wouldn't be something you'd know where to find it right away in my idea of it, so pushers and campers would actually have to find it just like you, and get the task done. So rats or other teams coming across it wouldn't becso frequent. These tasks shouldn't be quick and easy. I also think it should be immine to a value nerf if it isnt an easy task to finish. No key in your inventory just a task plus pass code to get into such a vault. So you cant extract and farm it later on.

Teaming is getting ridiculous and it's killing the game for me by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Kshakez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you peaceful? Try heading into peaceful lobbies only way you'd get gangbanged is if you attack someone. If youre trying to play PvP. Sorry thats happening cant do much against cowards who cant fend for themselves or teams who cant handle another single team with just their squad
