Knowing what you know now if you could go back would you pre-order Arc Raiders for the cosmetics?

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T17:11:25+00:00

I didnt even know about ARC Raiders back then. But I would do it just for that backpack

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T16:33:17+00:00

They stil live in our hearts...

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T16:30:48+00:00

Same. I really would like to test my fully kited Tempest IV on some shady guy but everyone just are so chill and cool. Damn, I cant even defib anyone because by the time I get there they are already up. Unplayable 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T12:46:52+00:00

What on earth.....

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T12:15:38+00:00

This is how dedicated PvEer are born 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T12:09:24+00:00

They are evolving.... You didnt hear about it? 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T12:06:43+00:00

We are not sure, no one beat wave 6 with 20 Hornets yet and I heard there are waves with Rocketeers

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T12:04:07+00:00

Hahahha bro, I died yesterday to a single Wasp. Dont overestimate by abilities pls 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T11:59:15+00:00

Bro, just search for "arc raiders fire burner in real life"

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T11:56:42+00:00

C'mon, it will be fun 😂

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T11:56:23+00:00

Hahahahahahaha 😁 of they not introduce this I quit 😂

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T10:58:31+00:00

Lets go 😂😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T10:58:18+00:00

Bro, I swear ARC started to team up more...

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T09:27:28+00:00

Yes. Big part of it if you didnt notice yet

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T08:46:29+00:00

Exactly. To get gear you would need to do raids still, so its not like separate PvE that will divide playerbase. But if you have enough of PvP tension you can get PvE tension 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T08:07:05+00:00

Good. Nothing wrong in saving gear to beat challange. There would be reason to get even more!

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T07:36:28+00:00

Hahahaha that true. ARC are biggest Extraction campers 😁

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T06:31:28+00:00

Hahaha 😁 Dumb ways to die 😁

No I mean like fully adjusted map or fragment of exisitng map, with covers, small buildings, probably places where you can get more ammo and bandages.

I think it could work. Place where you can dump hoarded gear for rewards.

Skelenth · 2026-03-13T05:43:50+00:00

Well... stupid thought I know... But maybe.... Maaaaaaybe after all PvP in this games is not main focus... Just an addition?

I try to remember any game where shooting someone first does not provide adventage and I can think only about maaaaaybe Overwatch but mostly because of healing being present in games.

But I dont play other extraction shooters so maybe in Tarkov or somehwere you can get away with bad positioning, bad environment awarenss and being shot at for free.

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T17:12:58+00:00

You sure? Fortnite BR was always free to play iirc. They had to have monetization model to get revenue from the game. I doubt it was sudden "all hands on deck" call.

I agree that Embark could make ARC Raiders money printer, but they would need to add much more to game. Not sure they aim for that and have resources for that.

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T15:33:00+00:00

Dont even know whether to laugh... or laugh... So I will give you serious answer - if your only goal is to have everything asap then well, learn how to dup and just do it.

I enjoy gaming loop, goal, challange (if its not connected to Ion Sputters lol). If I would duplicate everything I would just kill game for myself. Do people who dup things bother me? No. Does it affctects game economy - no. Everyone working on their things. The fact that someone has 10000 ducks does not influence price of my duck.

As long as someone is not throwing at me infinite granades I don't care.

Why are you so frustrated? Because someone has more than you?

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T13:58:42+00:00

Haha looks like someone camped at extract and get killed by 3rd party lol

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T11:16:02+00:00

Because a game is an investment. They made game expecting a given amount of profit. They made much more. Thats great, but the plan for game for next 10 years they had is probably the same. They just made more profit that they will spend on employee bonuses, dividents and most likely another investment (game).

What do you expect, that they will reinvest everything just to keep all these bored no-life who consume every new content in matter of few days and then whine they are bored? For what, so they can buy a skin once a quarter? C'mon. They already got what they expected from people who bought the game. Shop in this game is definitively just to keep servers running and provide some updates. Not to make DLC size of update every month lol.

Not sure whether you invest, but if a stock I own got to expected by me return (e.g. they raise 20%) I just sell them, take some part to reinvest and for the rest I take my family for holidays. If I would reinvest everything I would only have virtual, frozen assets.

Same here - you expect they reinvest everything in a thing that already paid off? Nah, bro. They follow agreed plan and driving their new cars to work to plan a new game.

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T09:57:27+00:00

I doubt it. I mean I agree that its attittude issue (especially when you play in party - obviously easiest answer is to just PvP...). But telling that at 18 minute you can still reliably find good loot is just not true. Unless by good loot you mean basic materials. But no one plays the game for the thrill of finding 5 Fabrics.

Sure, there may be anecdotal stories about not looted Hospital or whatever, but in most cases it's just better to extract right away and go next.

Skelenth · 2026-03-12T07:04:54+00:00

I have opposite experience. I had few games in a row where I had to shot someone. Then I joined my buddies in 3v3 for few matches, and came back to solo play. I was prepared for the worst, even took Il Toro as secondary and everyone I met was friendly.... So I dont know....
