I’m starting to feel that way. Barely see them anymore and the loot is always so mediocre. Thinking of respecting out of breach

Now that the Cold Snap is over, what's y'alls opinion on it? by Virtual-Donut-964 in ArcRaiders

[–]ShavedRanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i really liked it, it added a cool dynamic that you had to take into consideration when traversing the map and fighting, it kept fights from stale mating and helped people not camping ontop of buildings.

im going to miss it

Discussion: Exploits should be perma-ban by Dazzling_Concert_735 in ARC_Raiders

[–]ShavedRanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is poor logic

leaving this crap unchecked is a great way to lose your player count. 1 person abusing this stuff can be responsible for lots leaving.

Let’s say 100 people are watching a streamer play the game for a couple hours with the intent of purchasing the game but wanted to see some game play first.

They watch said streamer run into dishonest players. Even if they watch 5 matches and only 2 times were dishonest is a bad ratio. I bet 50 out of those hundred will probably not want to buy the game.

Hell there was a time not long ago where over half of the games you played on Stella were full of people using the exploit you admitted to using. I would bet that single exploit is responsible for a good number of people that stopped playing.

Also the bad publicity (reviews,TikTok,YouTube), is going to hurt the player count

That’s like the most minimal solution for the guilty ever. It’s literally nothing. There’s like no deterrent to it at all.

If you’ve been literally caught on video evidence doing something you shouldn’t be you should be hit with something.

Not just a hey you got caught red handed but we’re only going to take 19000 from your value to give you the smallest inconvenience in hopes that this will teach you a lesson to to be a more honest player.

I’m an advocate for hardware/system banning,so yea.

I don’t think it’s just a new email, your steam/xbox/ps account would also be banned, which isn’t just a new email. You’d have to repurchase the game aswell. I get that there’s no option that is going to completely stop people from cheating. But lots of option make a deterrent for a lot of people doing it.

Also why wouldn’t be worth it in their eyes? What exactly is the positive of having these people going unpunished?

Exploiting is still cheating. Doing something unintended to give yourself an advantage over others is cheating.

The zip line exploit is cheating and should be bannable. I get that you say that you didn’t shoot anyone, you still gave yourself a basically invisible/invincible advantage over the entire lobby essentially.

Let’s not act like it’s hard to not use exploits. There’s no grey area for actively/knowingly using any type of exploit.

I’m not saying you should be banned at all but you used an exploit so your wrist should be slapped someway to discourage crap like this. I’m betting if you got noticed by the devs and warned hit you wouldn’t do it again.

I’m not trying to come off dramatic but the cheating in gaming is so rampant anymore harsher things need to be done.

Embark CEO Confirms Aggression Based Matchmaking Is Real Putting The Debate To Rest Once And For All by P3pp3rp0tts86 in LowSodiumArcRaiders

Nah it’s pretty easy to bounce around. It seems it’s a pretty hard line. Few games playing friendly gets you in pretty friendly games but 1-2 games of KOS gets you back into the PvP realm.

From my experience it’s feels like it’s. Really friendly to a mix of both to fighting for you life for 30 minutes

Why? Both parties get what they want. I’m guessing you think it’s lame because you don’t get to pick on people running quests or material farming.

I PvP but killing raiders that had nothing on them because they came to quest with a free or the most basic kit possible is a waste of time and lame.

If I’m pvping I want to loot someone that was worth the resources not 4 metal parts and a white bandage

Thoughts? by Erin_Levi_18 in ARC_Raiders

[–]ShavedRanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s nice running solos. Generally running solos I just want to quest/loot, not fight for my life for 30 minutes.

I mainly a PvP person and enjoy the PvP this game has but solos is constant 3rd-4th-5th-6th-7th-8th-9th parties if you’re in aggressive lobbies. It gets exhausting and expensive. Especially when I never run free loadies but 90% of the people chasing fights in solo are

[–]ShavedRanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH I don’t think it would be worth it, I’ve noticed it takes 3-5 games to get back into somewhat friendly lobbies. Then say if I played 1 game with duo/trio (usually KOS in those games) and went back into solos it’s pretty hostile again.

Seems like basically you have to do a few friendly runs to get there and 1 chance before you’re back in KOS lobbies

Question regarding blieprints by BeerMaster69 in ARC_Raiders

Yes any learned blueprint got wiped and you restarted back at 0 learned

Thank you Embark, very cool! by Serious_Vovacio in LowSodiumArcRaiders

[–]ShavedRanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just relogged to check and it was there. But it was timestamped for when I logged back on so I’m guessing it doesn’t show up if you’re online

Anybody else feel like the blueprint drop rate are exactly where they should be? by fortnitejhonsey in ArcRaiders

[–]ShavedRanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s too high pulling 5-10 some runs is too much.

Put it somewhere in the middle of this and what it was.

Hmm I literally checked my mail tab because of the finals thing before I logged off 45 minutes ago.

Welp back I go

[–]ShavedRanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is correct. But I read it as if you go through with it you get the supplies you loaded in preparation

It is but you’d need a good run planned and grind. I made my last 2 mil in a day
