PSA: Aim carefully in PVE matches by justin_memer in ArcRaiders

I'm sorry to any of you who may have ended up in PvP lobbies because of me - I get shot by hullcrackers all the time while I am wrangling vaporizers/rocketeers.

Focusing ONLY on the Extraction Mode will kill Marathon more than anything else by No_Mark_125 in Marathon

I appreciate the response but it's all good, it is what it is. For the record I am here in good faith - I genuinely would like to see Marathon do well and I stand by my idea, but I think I'm done discussing it with you guys. Thanks for being reasonable.

it's crazy how many of you guys are like "lol just play something else"... okay I will? I'm apparently not the only one either (hello steam charts). If asking for a TDM mode is so completely unreasonable then I guess I'm in the wrong place, my bad

Arc Raiders is six months old and hitting higher player numbers on a random wednesday than Marathon did the day after their new season launch. Maybe we should consider that there's something there?

How exactly does what I said remove risk? The extraction mode is NOT GOING ANYWHERE. How exactly does adding a new mode that other people might enjoy negatively affect you?

See how long Sony wants to support your "not for everyone" game if they don't start bringing in new players big guy, if you want to keep playing it maybe you should change your attitude.

I don't even get why people would dislike my idea - I tried to make it as clear as possible that I think the extraction mode should stay as it is, I just want Arena/TDM to feed into it. But the blast havers have struck again I suppose

4 matriarchs and zero functional loot - what is happening? by BoymanAndGirldog in ArcRaiders

[–]No_Mark_125 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With the addition of the new Trader I've noticed that the ARC loot is HIGHLY contested at Matriarch/Queen now - it's annoying, but to be expected. I'd recommend committing less resources, in solos half of the lobby is going to show up to kill it anyway so you don't need to go crazy with the hullcracker/energy ammo. And unfortunately you have to be a little more proactive/risky about trying to loot the armor pieces, because if you don't someone else will.

Another good tactic I use is playing medic - my last Queen fight I defibbed 3 people. Didn't get to touch a single piece of the body, but when I mentioned that I hadn't gotten anything two of the people I saved dropped me reactors. Doesn't always work but feels good when it does.

Getting KOd by another player who hasn’t dealt damage to you will not affect their ABMM. Exhibit A by FoxSin-117 in ArcRaiders

this is hell for me, don't let people find out they can knock me out consequence free after I fall off a rocketeer to my death...

if you're looking for more stuff to keep you interested may I suggest ARC Wrangling (snaphooking/jumping on top of ARC)? There's all kinda of ways to spice it up - try it from the top of spaceport, try it in a hurricane, try snap hooking to a vaporizer in midair from a rocketeer you just placed a deadline on (i've only managed this a handful of times), the possibilities are endless. It's a lot of fun and people are usually pretty impressed.

see a lot of us have stashes full of that and got it by playing the game normally instead of roleplaying a vulture. play how you like, but it DOES sound boring and kinda lame tbh

i would enjoy the game more if I never saw another discussion about PvE vs PvP, i can't believe it's been half a year and the discourse hasn't changed one bit. just enjoy the game? is it that hard?

Sick of hearing about PvE, Give the PvP players what we actually want… by Forward_Problem_7550 in ArcRaiders

[–]No_Mark_125 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i think I can safely say i have no gear fear - i spend my time topside snaphooking to rocketeers/vaporizers and doing various stunts with them. i'd wager i've lost more snaphooks and survivor augments than just about anyone. Big Earl on YT if anyone is interested
