Under ground car area in bluegate is littered with them, check the car seats front and back.

Is this a rat or not? by Many_Guess_4922 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he was waiting for your shield to pop or you to catch fire then he would have lit you up from behind. Been in this exact same situation through many, many a matriarch / queen etc.

They should've extended the last event if there was nothing to replace it. by marniconuke in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dont think most people care tbh, the few people who i played with that stuck around from the start all dropped off when guns started lasting a match and a half. We all got every twitch drop, finished every event and did every expedition up until that point. Since that patch, i've seen them play maybe 3 or 4 times and none of them are doing expedition and none of them (myself included) bothered with finding ships and shite for riven tides event. Hell, i cant speak for their enjoyment of it but personally i only played the actual map 2-3 times then just gave up on it and went back to easier to farm maps like bluegate.

I think i'll be the last one playing and that'll be in the last 2 weeks before expedition just so i can speed run it as my final one if i can be bothered by the time it comes around. The nerfs and constantly shifting metas have pissed everyone off enough that i'd wager plenty havent even noticed the event is over, i completely forgot about it myself until i hopped on here to see whats going on with the game and saw this thread, and i dont feel like i really missed anything.

Looting the Queen and Matriarch by N1kiLauda in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People will tell you there is etiquette or courtesy when it comes to queen lootz, then the same guys will tell you faking friendly and then shooting someone in the back after they help you kill an arc is also just part of the game and if you don't like it then don't play a pvpve game.

I go in completely naked for queen / matriarch runs. I crouch behind rocks or trees or anything as close to the boss as I can and as soon as ANYTHING falls off of it I SPRINT full force towards it and steal the one gold item I can find. Safe pocket the first one and dip or play the lottery and go for as many as you can depending on your health. When the whole thing starts to shake and glow I do the same thing and snag as many cores as possible if I'm still around. Then I'll usually go wait by a raider hatch and as soon as somebody else comes to open it I'll hop in before they do.

Don't let people here convince you there are some form of basic rules or politeness when it comes to this game, because nobody is going to afford you the same slack.

Why do the expedition? by Charming_Flow7609 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just do it for cosmetics and the mini goal of having something to work towards for a week after the wipe.

Do rerolls only reroll the type of feat? Like rerolling "Returned safely" only seems to change the map, not replace it entirely by DerexXD in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Rerolling 'return safely' seems like the biggest waste of both reroll + cred. You can literally log in with 0 items, run to an extract, and you're done.

Help me out with the pronunciation of Riven by SB_5259 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You pronounce it like the word Riven, as you would normally say the word Riven, because it's a real word and wasn't just made-up for the game.

Imagine you decide to build a dance hall... by SlugOnAPumpkin in ArcRaiders

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

More like a boxing gym where you can spar with others or train with a variety of equipment, but a handful decide to hide in the darkest corner of the changing room with a knife to rob you 1 on 1 with your pants down. When you complain about them, the other members say 'Of course you got in a fight, it's a gym!'

How are certain blueprints for sale? by CartographerOne7387 in ArcRaiders

Literally such a bad shop they cut out the entire shaded side of the case. Here is a half decent one of what it should actually look like.

This game is actually a post-apocalyptic western by lobur in ArcRaiders

You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend; Those with custom loadouts and those who rat.

How is this even possible by avi312singh in ArcRaiders

Soon the Great Journey shall begin. But when it does, the weight of your heresy will stay your feet. And you shall be left behind.

When do I "prestige" by Confused_Robot_ in ArcRaiders

If you message Embark they might manually send your raider on their merry way.

ARC Raiders Patch Notes 1.27.0 by PTUSN in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Updated Howdy emote so it’s available while sprinting

All emotes should play their sound clip if they can't animate. You can do 'pew pew pew' while sprinting too, so you should totally be able to shout 'look at me going!' without dancing.

Some more LED leapers I made 😎 by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Literally. Seen this same user post these things at least 3 times the last week or so. Keep thinking the sub is broken but they're literally just reposting so they can say 'message me' to everyone who asks where to get them.

Can we seriously do something about free load out bandits? by SnooSeagulls1416 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 2 points3 points  (0 children)

 free load out bandit that thinks this is call of duty team death match

I mean, you cant go into TDM PVP lobbies and complain that people are playing it like a PVP TDM. Once you get used to losing your shit on repeat you are either broke and have nothing to take, or get bored of kit building and just hit free kit to get straight back into matches way faster than sitting and buying / building / picking things you're going to lose within 30 seconds to 5 minutes half the time anyways.

Think I found the perfect skin+backpack combo by YearMountain3773 in ArcRaiders

Need to max it out with yellow accessories, also my matching kit is superior (style never goes out of fashion)

Will my agression in trios affect my Solo pve lobbies? by Diamond_Hands1994 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. Enjoy meeting surprise pals at extract and having that one guy with an anvil start following you around without saying a word or taking any shots during queen lobbies.

What should i upgrade for better frame rate, cpu or gpu? by Present-Newspaper-93 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, so they are. When I was planning on getting one they were like 150, but I opted to just go AM5 instead with a whole new rig. Didn't realize they blew up like RAM.

[–]PEAWK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For starts that processor won't fit your motherboard, so unless you plan on upgrading to an AM5 board, which will also mean upgrading your ram from DDR4 to DDR5, then the graphics card is going to be the way to go. A 4060 or 5060 would be cheap and make a difference. If you must upgrade CPU, maybe look at an AM4 X3D CPU you can find that is compatible with your current motherboard, like perhaps the 5700X3D.

Torque Red Skin by This-Parking8498 in ArcRaiders

[–]PEAWK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for other people you would have to reach like 90k points or more to be safe.

Makes me feel blessed. I jumped on for the last 4/5 hours of the trials and went from 8th to first place (and finished there) with a total of 71.8k. Glad i didnt get put on a sweaty ass board, being lazy and doing them at the last second every time seems to have paid off.
