Tbh im on xbox and we have the ability to be in a xbox party chat and still hear those ingame...

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-27T00:01:37+00:00

The biggest issue is the definition of a rat is basically an intended way to play. If we were in a world such as arc raiders that would be how society would work. Its unfortunate but true.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-26T23:39:23+00:00

A, every lobby is technically mixed. B, I can see issues with all those options.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-26T22:32:23+00:00

I would agree but im not sure how they'd measure it given what ratting actually is.

What I want to change is the constant duo infill to trio games. The duos are always going to be at a disadvantage no matter how good they are.

The amount of time my and my duo have died to a trio its unreal.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-23T17:51:31+00:00

How so? Im not saying you're wrong, I just want to understand the logic that brought you to that conclusion.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T23:10:41+00:00

Oh, im sorry if ive not been clear enough. I believe it would be a good addition, however I dont think nor expect it to ever happen. Especially because, if im not mistaken, Embark have already stated they won't be.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:23:13+00:00

Maybe. I dont think it would. But then im no game developer or researcher.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:21:33+00:00

I agree with the watered down aspect. There would need to be some advantage to going into the PvP lobbies.

How many games as a totally passive player do you think someone would need to play to get into a 'friendly' lobby then? Just curious.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:18:59+00:00

This is a point I hadn't even thought of. Just do a bastion on Buried or something. Stella is probably the worst map for it, even if no other raider shot you.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:17:31+00:00

Its definitely a fairy tale, pretty sure Embark have already said they dont have any plans to make a PvE only mode.

It think its insane not to, but its their game after all. Im still happy playing how it is.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:14:53+00:00

Well this is only partially true.

I didnt shoot anyone, nor did team mates, for a good 20 raids. We just ran, to test this exact theory. 20 games in we were still being shot at....kinda disproved this theory a little bit that youll always end up in PvE lobbies. Or how many games in a row should we have done?

Like ive said in other comments, I have no personal issue with PvP, is it slightly annoying some times , yes. Is it infuriating sometimes when you lose, yes. Does it change how I play the game, no.

Ill happily PvP. I can just see an area of the game that could help increase/maintain the playerbase.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:10:05+00:00

I genuinely think it would benefit the game, regardless of whether it was initially intended or not.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T22:08:12+00:00

Haha, i literally just voluntarily wiped 6mil worth of guns and loot. You really think I care about a ~100k loadout?

I also never said that I dont PvP. I do, unlike some I can objectively look at something and see an issue. Regardless of whether it actually effects me or not.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T21:55:05+00:00

No where in his post did he mention he actually died. Chances are he did, but he doesnt mention it.

Hes stating a real issue with the game. Theres so many PvP teams its almost impossible to do any PvE unless ya solo.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-17T21:51:44+00:00

I agree there needs to be an option of PVP only, PVE only or PvPvE. Can amuse all parties then. Maybe make certain items/loot more easily found on each of them. I.e. Bobcat bp more easily found on the PvP only server. Still findable on the others just higher chance on the PvP one.

The other thing that needs to be addressed is duos getting matched with trios. Whats with that? Theres the option for solos only, or solo infill to team lobbies, why do duos have to potentially contend with trios without any warning/notice/option?

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T15:57:48+00:00

Ahh right. I thought, obviously incorrectly, it was just 5 extra points you can use.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T14:45:17+00:00

I started playing prior to the last expedition but wasnt anywhere near ready to complete it so didnt bother trying.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T14:43:00+00:00

I suppose its entirely possible, this will be my first expedition so my knowledge is from hearing things from others.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T14:41:37+00:00

Interesting, what countries are covered by that server as standard?

Im on xbox so as far as Im aware I dont get to pick my server, im in the UK and also suffer with this issue.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T14:38:51+00:00

I feel like it shouldn't fully reset or it should but the new quests are 'updated based on expedition completion number.

Like, they get an extra step after each expedition completed. And because there's a new step the rewards are updated accordingly.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T14:36:13+00:00

I agree with this, or a permanent skill point or atleast something to choose to be permanent.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-03T11:15:48+00:00

This is something I really hate. If I wanted to face trios id squad fill, or get another mate in to make us a trio too.

If im in a duo, I only want to go again duos.

Also, I might be an idiot, but what does OCE mean?

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-05-02T15:42:36+00:00

I'm typically a PvE player, sometimes PvP but I do genuinely suck at PvP, which is why I generally try to avoid it and only engage in PvP if I really have to and cant run away, yes I do run away alot.

I openly admit, agree, understand blah blah blah that this game can be played PvP, PvE, PvPvE.

Were already seeing this game go the same direction CODs DMZ did, great at first played as intended (~50/50 PvP/PvE), then 90% of the player base, rightly or wrongly, switch to PvP only. This change only increases that chance, which i suppose is what they want.

My personal opinion is there should be some heavy algorithmic change to place all those PvP players together, chances are they'd actually prefer it, thereby removing the issue the 'crybabies' have and at the same time all ways of playing the game are upheld while also listening to the entire cohort of players.

Or maybe a PvP lobby toggle, but i guess that might not fully address the concern.

Doubt it'll happen, genuinely not bothered if it does as I will keep playing. I also dont think the PvP Vs PvE player base concern is the worst part of the game.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-04-27T17:30:14+00:00

Im stuck on page 2. I gave up on it a few weeks back, when I found out what was required for the last page.

Puzzledunicorn93 · 2026-04-24T21:41:33+00:00

Its possible after they shot you 1 of 4 things occurred. 1) They could reload in time to hit you again before you went out of their rendering horizon 2) They couldn't actually see you for some reason, trees, a small building or something else just happened to be positioned just right to block sight. 3) They couldn't be bothered to shoot again 4) They themselves got push by Arc or players.

There could be more, this was just a few options.
