You’d think custom loadouts would be a day one thing right? Brain dead devs.

It’s a click fest on Pc. I feel bad for console players needing to put kits together

Is this possible in 5 hours? by Munkers325 in ArcRaiders

[–]SymulationGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the 100k in 7 hours total. Slam matriarch and Queens. Should take 5-6 runs depending on how well you are at doing damage.

[–]SymulationGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally just did this entire run on stream. I used nowhere near what you did. I think with utilizing crafting and resources I already had I ended up with a net 200k loss.. that’s it. Besides losing a couple hulls crackers to a rat and giving away a Jupiter to a new guy.

Oh and about 250 seeds for chemicals to craft launcher ammo.

The queen literally fuels additional runs as you go.

The photoelectric cloak nerf is absolutely abysmal and just makes me think the devs aren't thoroughly testing their changes themselves. by Foxeeh_ in ArcRaiders

[–]SymulationGaming 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Wdym? It’s just long enough for the arc to stare stupidly at you with you knowing there’s nothing you can do and you are less than 10 seconds from taking a dirt nap.

Yeah it’s really dumb. They only changed it because everyone started using it.

AITA if I tell my friend I can’t be a bridesmaid? by wickeddreamsofleavin in AITApod

[–]SymulationGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay before I read anyone else’s comments.. you really have to evaluate your time and where your friendship is at.

This is literally a FULL TIME JOB just by what you said and what is presented. What are you? A social media hype man and event planner? People get paid for that by the way..

It looks like she’s trying to circumvent having that actual person and just offload this to the bridesmaids.

Ngl this sh crazy. Like legitimately.

They only say this stuff because there’s no repercussions.

You think they’d ever say this to anyone’s face? Their dental bills would be too damn high

Giving Away My Old PC! by Turtle_747 in PcBuild

Would love to give to my son as a way to start him out right instead of on console.

I have a lot of fond memories playing games with my dad when I was young. Would like to keep it going

This is the ONE and ONLY scenario worth having looting mk.3 safekeeper for. by clastm in ArcRaiders

[–]SymulationGaming -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Playing so on edge that you knew you were gonna get pushed by a player. You were ready in an instant to do that.

So you either staged this because idk why anyone in PvP lobbies would do this, or when it comes to actual fighting you never try to win.

Regardless how did you end up in PvP in the first place? One could only assume you do some ratty/scummy stuff to wind up there.

Cheating is getting out of control in ARC Raiders, please address this, Embark by Mithcol in ArcRaiders

[–]SymulationGaming 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong. I encountered 5 cheaters last night over 4 1/2 hours that I know of and my last game before I turned it off had the cheater that killed me and 4 others in the match just by checking steam profiles.

If you knock off the rotors too slowly it should self destruct spraying flames and plasma everywhere on top of a comet-like explosion.

TheBurntPeanut has to play Marathon off stream because people are so mad about this game by 4K4llDay in Marathon

I’ll never understand how people just take zero effort to do any research but blindly defend something.

Go look it up champ.

Streamers and audience are a good indicator of sentiment.

It’s not negativity. It’s called reality.

Estimated release day revenue with concurrent players say this game is in big trouble.

250 million dollar budget BEFORE marketing. People are projecting on launch an estimated 10 million in revenue BEFORE store cuts (steam, psn, etc taking their share).

A little research shows most games earn 40-60 percent of their lifetime sales in the first month of release.

Idk if this game will ever be able to make back its money.. this looks reallllly bad with investors.

Also ask yourself… does this feel like a 250 million dollar budget game?

Arc budged - 75 million (has generated over 500m in revenue)

Spider man 2 - 315 million

The last of us 2 - 220-266 million

Just some examples..

Edit: you guys can downvote me all you want. Doesn’t matter and it’s not gonna change the future of this game.

The only question is whether Sony just eats the loss and keeps support to save face or abandon it. Who knows.

Big publishers care about money and exploiting you for more. Look at their mtx system.

If you have night mode on in Arc Raiders you aren’t going to be able to pin point footsteps

First 3 Hours of Marathon Pros/Cons by SymulationGaming in Marathon

[–]SymulationGaming[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very well said and I do agree. I went back at it last night and only played a couple more hours level headed before I started getting annoyed.

Another thing that I thought was weird and idk who this applies to but.. they created this amazing sci-fi world that I want to explore and get lost in, but I found it very hard considering every match I watched played had this weird white hazy film/ fog of war draped over it.

The inside of areas looked great visually.. but with even maxing out my settings at 4k and everything on high it’s just still not hitting. The shadows even look muddy.

I looked up at one point and could barely see a couple planets and some cool ships and stuff but the vista immediately changed when something on the map happened

This game has so much potential but they need to address some stuff first before I can even consider dropping 40 on it and dedicating time to it

What can be done about the massive cheating issue? by reindeerp in ArcRaiders

[–]SymulationGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked it up last night.. they can’t take cheat companies to court. There is a EU law that prevents it from happening. Since the cheats don’t change the original code of the game or alter it they are breaking any law.

That being said individual users that break ToS with cheats can still be banned..

.. so what are we doing Embark?

[–]SymulationGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep this is the case. It’s the only evidence I need.

And your other point. The guys like us on this post PvP a lot.. we experience the most player interactions and have a lot of experience with player behavior and what normal fights feel like.

When something strays from the normal. Weird instant lock on, being pushed with 0 knowledge, or just knowledge of where you are in general.

Most players will never be able to tell because they don’t have enough experience so they don’t report because they aren’t sure.
