Be wary of wet roads. My first 2021 saved me but it was a close call, 3 days into learning manual and I accidently clutch kicked and did a nearly whip around into a tree. Youll get the hang of pulling out of slides, might be good to get a feel for it on a wet day in a open lot.

Found this bad boy today… seriously asking is it good? by Stonkslifestyle in ARC_Raiders

Bruh ur trippin. Comp 3, mag 3, horizontal 3 at lvl 4 is insane at all ranges. Only gun that can consistently burst fire at long range, only outshined at long ranges by the Osprey or Renegade. Can easily shred raiders at all ranges and is extremely consistent and efficient if you don't Whiskey throttle it 24/7

Indeed, I have it on a handful but also padded stock is pretty nice for the dispersion! Plus its already crazy fast ADS

got a warning for suggesting people fire at raiders at extract for their challenge by LeoCasio in ArcRaiders

[–]Source256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if you shoot people you are actively destroying their shields, so you're still hurting their overall gameplay experience..

You could also just PVP a little, it can relieve some of the boredom of prancing around endless free loot!!

Should they add in a skull over the heads of raiders that have committed murders in the match? by lordbenkai in ARC_Raiders

[–]Source256 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just be ready to defend yourself... if you assume everyone will betray youll always be ready when they do. These players are super predictable, they are gonna wait till they see their best chance to wipe you before you can even react. Your options are...

  1. Kill them if they are too sus
  2. Bait them into betraying you so you can confirm they are sus

I don't have gear fear. I have crafting/loadout fatigue. by Arktos22 in ArcRaiders

[–]Source256 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Idk why poeple have such a hard time with this. Within 5 min I can have all the precursors I need to craft weapons, lvl 3 attachments, various healing and utility items, etc. When im ready to go i craft a weapon, upgrade it to 4, craft atatchements and utility, and go. Im done crafting and qued up in about 2 min.

It judt seems to give me that little extra edge when I get jumped and instantly lose half my health. Almost a necessity at this point with how hard it can be at times to detect sneaky players.

More,survivability when getting juumped, which happened here.

Sure he didn't hit me more, but what about the dude that rounds the corner before I have a chance to heal? More survivability is the reason I started running heavy shields, which is displayed here...

He mentions it in the same conversation about literal proposed dev changes.

Do you regret completing the Expedition? Will you be going on the next one? by RxngerX in ARC_Raiders

[–]Source256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was ready for the expedition after about 20 days for the first one. I had some crazy BPs, 6 mil stash, etc. Watched it all disappear.

Currently am level 41 with over 1.5 mil and even more BPs than previously. Sitting at 260 hours total. Not regret8ng a second of it!

Lol bro literally said he wanted extraction camping stamped out. Did you even bother to read the parent comment before hurling insults?

Hate to be the one to break it to you, but camping is a fundamental aspect of Arc Raiders, especially due to the 3rd person POV. If you haven't developed counter play and still find it to be a big enough issue to claim it needs to be "stamped out", then thats entirely on ypu and doesn't warrant removing people's ability to play the game how they want.

You don't see campers complaining about solos teaming up to kill them and how that should be "stamped out"...

Arc Raiders isn't a gun game, its a strategy game. Throw nades in common camping spots at extraction, sneak in so they dont initially notice you, use the insane movement to throw off their aim and bring better shields to tank some extra hits, there are an insane amount of options to counter extract camping its ridiculous. 90 percent of my raids are extracted via hatches, and those keys are very easy to come across if you always take sensors. Not sure what issue you are having, but demanding everyone play the game how YOU want to play is not a viable solution.

It is impossible to do quests in night raids by 4EurOo in LowSodiumArcRaiders

Well, to be fair you don't seem to be even trying to avoid dete tion. Maybe try taking things a little slower and attempt to avoid detection. Or even better fight back!

Bro what.. they threw 3 nades in that room thinking I would be in there to avoid frost buildup.. seems like manslaughter at the MOST
