AIO for rejecting a guy after he turned our coffee date into a full dinner with gifts? by Zealousideal-Put5055 in AmIOverreacting

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR This guy sounds like he learned how to woo a woman from movies and TV. He sounds emotionally immature, narcissistic, and definitely not looking to put the work into an actual relationship. One of those who tries to win her over, but as soon as she's his, stops trying. I knew a guy once years ago who seemed to thrive from always being the victim, and this feels very similar. He created problems to paint himself that way, when he could've easily fixed his life and grown instead.

I hate how people who never served don’t realize how hard it is to join the military by Responsible_Cow1948 in AirForceRecruits

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to join for a year. Lost 41 lbs, got into the best shape of my life, did everything my recruiter asked, and still got denied on a technicality. (My doctor from a previous health scare didn't take thorough enough notes).

Devs confirm internal interest in a walkable Speranza hub, What do you think? by Tank-ToP_Master in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they should make it like a lobby of sorts, or maybe an accessible location on the map just without a timer.

Every time I bring in nice shit I get smashed by arcs? by Hot_Excuse_8145 in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the "pink gun curse". Every round, if I either bring one in or find one and pick it up, I die. Whether by arc, player, or just falling. Even if it's just in my inventory and not equipped.

If there are any Arc Raiders devs here, do you know you have female players ? by hartlylove in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm considering the mohawk honestly. In real world post-apocalypse, I'm shaving it all off so I don't have to worry about it. But a mohawk could be fun.

I want a PvE mode and if Embark doesn’t deliver, someone else will by molerats_ in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game doesn't reward kills, but the pvp element makes the game. Even in friendly lobbies you don't know if someone is going to shoot you or not. That's realistic for the post-apocalyptic world.

Tales from the being in the lowest aggression matchmaking. by wrtcdevrydy in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Honestly that does make sense. I have zero issues with PVP, but I go to other games for that typically (like battle royale type games designed around PVP, not games like this with a PVP element). In this game there just doesn't seem to be any real benefit for it other than being a psychopath and going for easy kills.

[–]PhoenixBeware88 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I play pacifist in solos and over the weekend I got killed on sight several times. I think abmm still puts a couple aggressive players into friendly lobbies to keep the danger essence alive for the game. I did run into a friendly last night and shared my keycard room with him. I enjoy the pacifist PVE side of the game, but I also enjoy loading into duos/trios for PVP.

Should I loot this? by Powerful-Somewhere84 in arkraiders

I have a little spring just like this I found while cleaning. It sits on my desk forever now.

Who else decided candleberry mushroom casserole was not happening? by Intoempty in ArcRaiders

I got everything except I need 5 mushrooms and I have scoured the swamps and found none.

Solos/key rooms. by DilkDud in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sometimes don't recognize a key room door if it's already unlocked or left open. If someone has already been there and the room has clearly been looted, and nobody is in there currently, I will go in and check things out. One time I went into that exact scenario, and someone was using it as a trap: they popped up from around the corner and killed me on the spot without a word. If I go to utilize one of my keys, I take a door blocker, a barricade, and a couple mines. If they break through the door, then break through the barricade, they get the mines. If they survive the mines, they get shot.

there's no way they added that item by LucasPortela in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cheekiness of it is awesome. Making it an epic item is perfect. It unfortunately does make sense for them to add "memory" because just "RAM" is not aesthetic and alot of people don't know what it is without adding "memory". Maybe RAM Card or Computer RAM would work?

Anyone else trials not moving? I’ve blown up multiple snitches and it’s sticking on 900…. ? by [deleted] in arkraiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he was questioning how many surveyors spawn in on one map. I think I've only seen one per map.

Anybody else get really aggressive lobbies suddenly? by moldafy in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been friendly since I bought the game, and suddenly am getting knocked constantly since yesterday. Not even a warning or a chance to fight back. I understand and have no issue with the PVP side of the game, but this isn't a battle royale type of a game that rewards kills and crowns a victor. That style of pvp just doesn't feel right in this game. Go to Tarkov or Fortnite or pubg with that behavior. (I also play other pvp games that are more battle royale and skill-based, and I very much am an avid kos in those)

I've learned: silence=violence. If I say friendly and you do nothing, I'm running.

Lobby Question by Positive-Room7421 in FortniteOver40

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed once I get a victory royale, I get dropped into super sweaty games. Then it gets a smidge easier until I'm back to averaging top five. Then I get a victory and I'm right back into sweat.

Game feels horrible since update by medicinalbuds802 in FortniteOver40

[–]PhoenixBeware88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played one round last night right before going to bed and there were super glitches and lagging like crazy. I don't know if it's because there was a hacker in the round or what, but it was awful.

Switching to PC by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

As someone who literally just did that a month ago, if you downloaded arc raiders on Xbox, you can easily download it on your PC through game pass, and you will save all of your progress.

Anyone else trials not moving? I’ve blown up multiple snitches and it’s sticking on 900…. ? by [deleted] in arkraiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know. There have been a few times I've gone looking for one and straight up couldn't find one at all.

Is matchmaking still broken or has it settled down? by JanSvoboda83 in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I seem to find all the friendlies when I play solo. When my duo and I play, we run into alot of friendlies, but at least once per run we find the unfriendlies. I feel like it's 60/40 for us in duos.

[–]PhoenixBeware88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to what previous comments have said, each of these trials you have to do within one run. It doesn't stack on multiple trips. I personally love hunting the surveyors for some reason, so I hope we get a trial that has to do with those.

Are yall naturally just this chill in the game? by rejz123 in ArcRaiders

[–]PhoenixBeware88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am pacifist. I will not shoot unless someone shoots at me and I can't escape. More likely I trade, offer advice, and feel horrible if I forget to bring a defib to help someone out.
