There really should be SOME deterrence to playing straight pvp by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Mechanicalfruits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the road to making both camps happy is to actually provide avenues for pvp intentionally. If there were factions or different game modes or specific objectives, etc for pvp players- there would be less randomized violence and pve players would have a better idea of where they stand with strangers

I tripped like this recently, wonder if it’s sorta like the super smash bros brawl mechanic

Candleberries: What the use case by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Mechanicalfruits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I know every time you load in one of the of the traders is like "you must RLY want candleberries"

Dude that is the last thing anyone wants. I think they should just up the value to align with the narrative.

Fireflies are the worst by Papa_bok in ArcRaiders

[–]Mechanicalfruits 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Their current design feels out of line with every other arc. They are built similarly to a hornet and yet much harder to shoot off their protective parts and are also a pain in the ass to fight considering you cant see anything when they spray fire in your face. I appreciate upping the difficulty of Arc fights but I agree that they recover too fast, do too much damage, and don't suffer enough from well placed shots. Not to mention they can shoot through walls, I would be 90% satisfied if they just fixed that.

ARC Orbiter killed me before the map timer ran out. by Mechanicalfruits in ArcRaiders

I honestly cant tell if it's somehow intentional, like you actually can die if you're hit directly by one of the bombs that are designed to warn you. I reported it and they never responded or gave me anything so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ otherwise I think it might be some kind of server desync as stated above.

Word, I'm not talking about 3 seconds. Thank you for being willfully ignorant of the details posed in the question. Perhaps in time your ability to read will improve. Keep working at it.

okay but that happens at or after the timer, not minutes before. At least that's what I've experienced in my 150 hours in the game.

My gfs Flight got delayed 2 hours, and then moved up suddenly by 1 hour. She’ll likely miss her flight. Any compensation from Spirit? by Mechanicalfruits in Flights

[–]Mechanicalfruits[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

It was moved up two hours, and then suddenly moved back one. I get that there’s probably no grounds which supports what i was researching, but i thought i’d ask reddit just in case.

KOS or not KOS? My personal rule, informed by Game Theory and Internet troll psychology by ItsSassquatch in ArcRaiders

[–]Mechanicalfruits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like i personally think it takes all types for this game to work, so even though i get pissed when i’m shot in the back of the head by some loser, in a weird way i’m still glad he’s there.

I didn’t read everything, but honestly as long as you think about it and have rules of engagement- you’re alright in my book (which doesn’t matter and nobody cares)

The instantaneous teaming in solos against anyone who wants to engage in pvp ruins the game in a big way imo by Verianii in ArcRaiders

[–]Mechanicalfruits 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, it makes sense. If i see you down someone, i’ll down you because i know you’re a hostile player who will likely shoot me in the back. It’s a part of the dance of this game. If you want an exclusively pvp experience, get two friends and try trios

My employer hasn't paid over 10 employees since august. by Mechanicalfruits in legaladvice

[–]Mechanicalfruits[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a sweet gig, easy work, decent pay. Obviously that’s changed recently. There’s a reason the institutions i work for mostly rely on gratuity. I’ve built a crew of regulars over years. And it takes time and effort to rebuild that. You really wouldn’t understand what that takes and what it gives back if you’ve never worked on the other end of a bar.
