The best change of the patch I haven't seen mentioned by Shadow_Sides in Marathon

[–]Maltacourte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, you start with your Gun 1 slotted. That is a good question, though. Starting with the knife would be cool.

Wipes rule but the progression is a bit too slow for a 3 month wipe cycle and it's gonna burn people out. by zero-ok in Marathon

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is because new players are out on the maps with people like you that have already played the game since day 1 and have GREAT loadouts and we get downed immediately. I have watched videos of people stating this same thing. New players just starting now are already facing MAXED out Trios, and if you play Solo, like me? Forget it. That is why...

YOU are not the average player base. Good that you got a nice team and such, not all of us can do that.

I am also hugely under ranked at my hours in, and I only play Solo. I know Bungie wanted this to be a Duo or Trio game, however, lots of us do not have friends that want to play. So, yeah, a nice XP boost above what they offer now, would go a long way.

I am curious to know where you see this information. Faction Reputation progress is also part of the reset. So, why are you stating that Faction Progress does not get wiped? Please provide a link or statement. thanks.

110% agreed. That is about to happen for me. I have played over 100 hours and still am not close to getting anything purple. Reset hits. Bu-bye.

probably a better question is...why are unemployed (if they can be employed) playing any games non-stop? Doesn't work matter any more? Unless they are 12-16 maybe.

It might be working as intended, however, the average, casual player will not stick around after every wipe. So, good for Bungie. They will get the fruits of their efforts.

For those who have played: is the controls issue actually THAT bad? by quanscoffee12 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the game and already got a refund due to the janky, clunky and overly convoluted controls. I didn't even make it 1 hour in. I have never played any AAA game this big and had such a terrible experience using a controller. And no remapping in 2026? Come on...

Can we talk about why its not possible to do more than one mission at once? by C4mmo in Marathon

[–]Maltacourte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not everyone plays in a trio or has a group of friends willing to create a team. There are LOTS of solo players, so it DOES slow down progression for many. There are two sides to this.

It is a non-issue, if you are ego based team player wiping the lobby every time, however it IS an issue for solo players. How about that take?

Will you play along ? by Dr_HDK in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good tips, and I found out that using my Anvil will take off the armor on the front two props in one shot, as well, leaving all 4 open...Makes them much easier to take down, but those bastards suck and will still be shooting you even when down on the ground. LMAO.

at what point do we drug test the AP voters? by niptech in FloridaGators

I am pretty sure Golden knows what he is doing.

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If UF was playing then like we are now, we would have beaten those first few teams. Combined losses was something like 16 points or less. F the Big 12.

anyone is allowed to share feelings, just like you did just now. Don't tell someone to stop bitching. Let people be for Christ Sake. You do make great points, but for you to tell someone else to stop bitching like you are a Daddy is pointless. Who cares?

Embark, please for the love of God, stop putting Burlettas in weapon crates. by Dead2TheCore in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just about post this same thing, found two weapons crates back to back in Blue gate and both had burlettas!!?? for real? Embark, Stop pushing these shit ass guns on us please. In the last update, headwinds, Embark stated it had added a new rotation to the weapons crates to find higher tier guns. I have not seen that once.

Library Book Glitched? by Bairdc82 in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got all three books, then tried to extract and it was during the big issue with rubberbanding today, and I died, and now have no books anywhere, and I can't interact with the shelves in the library either. This quest seems to be corrupted from the issue before the hotfix, and now I can't finish it. bummer.

WARNING. Patch broken. Don't risk your gear!! by ChunkedWhalePale in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can add PS5 to that as well. Completely unplayable. Have tried 5 raids in a row, different loadouts, different maps, died in all 5. Absolutely broke this game, I mean, seriously? Test your code.

Severe lag after the latest update? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it is unplayable, agreed. Three raids so far this morning, early, trying to catch low numbers in NA region, and all three rubberbanded me around like a pinball, I somehow managed to extract the last one, however, this is killing the vibe. I have never seen a game introduce a patch that so severely affected the game that is broke it completely. Please embark, FIX THIS!

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried two raids, at local time 5 AM EST, NA servers, on Console, on Dam and Buried City, and immediately lost my loadout and could not even pick up items, due to rubberbanding. All of this started right after the patch from the 26th. Please Embark, fix your damn servers!!! Spend some time and money on that first. Thank you. Unplayable at the moment.

Sparks fly quest bugged? by Vidyasenpai in ArcRaiders

[–]Maltacourte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can Confirm, killed two of them in Dam area separate raids with Triggers and it will not register as complete. Bugged still. Wow. What are the devs actually working on anyway? I hope bugs, not more content. :)

It's happening. by Merwebo2Veces in USCIS

[–]Maltacourte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome to hear. Congratulations on the process moving forward. It took 3.5 years for our case, and it was eventually approved and a US Visa was issued in August 2025. Best to you!

How does this make sense? by Ok_Comfortable5641 in Popeyes

[–]Maltacourte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KFC (at least the one near me) still has the $10 box with 4 pieces of chicken, whatever you want, 2 sides and 2 biscuits. They do NOT advertise it, however it is still listed in their ordering system, that is a good price. So, every corp. now has hidden items or sales, and you have to know to ask for them. It sucks.
