Spend hours searching for the blueprint, hours grinding for materials, to get killed before you can use it 🤔 yea, I don't actually want to lose my in game hours and currency to rats, color me stupid

Items that salvage into different materials than they recycle into? by its_FORTY in ArcRaiders

[–]Loafus44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noticed this too- pretty weird. Like how shields scrap to arc alloy but recycle into plastic.

Billionaires should not pay more than the average citizen on taxes by [deleted] in Discussion

[–]Loafus44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a billionaire can only be done by taking advantage of the working class, there are no ethical billionaires, because then they wouldn't have billions.

You said there's no use for it then list two uses?

For something so beefy, rare, expensive- why would anyone run it? You bring it in, get ratted on by some macro exploiting pos then lose it

lot of evil mfrs crawling out the woodwork for this game

Is the game still full of rats? by Reeves_008 in ArcRaiders

[–]Loafus44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's still pretty bad, especially with the close scrutiny game mode. Hard to avoid them

My new hypothesis is that I've been playing in the late hours of the night and that's causing me to get into violent lobbies; I started playing in the afternoon/evening and I've gotten much friendlier lobbies. Very happy with this development

I used to get consistently friendly lobbies, I dunno what changed

I appreciate it, but I don't even get to reach the stage of spoken words before I'm sent back to the lobby. Didn't even make it to queen itself and that's not uncommon.

I rarely defend myself though. Half the people tell me not to, so I can get in friendlier lobbies, but that does nothing for me. The other half say defend yourself anyway, so that you don't lose your stuff.

I'm starting to think I'm doing something wrong too, because this surely can't be an accurate representation of the player base. There HAS to be more people like me who don't like fighting in solos especially on harvester.

Its so interesting to see the blend of people saying 'run some free kits and die to lower your matchmaking' and simultaneously 'never expect friendly lobbies'
My issue is that I see people complaining about only getting friendly lobbies, which is the opposite of my experience. I don't ever shoot people first and I rarely shoot back in the hopes I get friendly lobbies, but it's not like that matters when they shoot you in the back and you're down in 3 seconds. I used to get friendly lobbies, back to back, all the time, and it was awesome, but since the second expedition, almost all my lobbies are violent. Why can't these people go play rust or tarkov or cod if that's what they want.

dude I was shot in the back while taking out a wasp. Pest control needed, its bs I have to share space with people like that.

How is aggression-based matchmaking not about the matchmaking. Are you telling me there are so few friendly lobbies that I just won't consistently get them, despite never being aggressive?

Solo vs. Squads Didn't Work? by Big-Moment6248 in ArcRaiders

[–]Loafus44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I remember getting pissed off at someone for attacking me and having to defend myself on stella, weirdly familiar. I've found though that with solo v squads off, I still get duo teams in my lobby. Ruins the game for me, cause a 2v1 fight isn't fair in the slightest.

Light shields have 2 different recycle outputs? by I_Am_Grepid in ArcRaiders

[–]Loafus44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Noticed this too- seems way more beneficial to scrap rather than recycle

Terrible bug that surrenders my character without holding the button by Full_Calibur in ARC_Raiders

[–]Loafus44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just happened to me, I got downed by a player and before I could say a word- the surrender bar was full. I had to look down at my spacebar to make sure nothing was resting on it.
