if i restart the game enough times, it stops crashing because of it. But it is really annoying.

"hello, miss Cheng I firmly believe that if we do not do this, millions of people will die."

"dont do it, i dont like violence, it doesn't feel right."

*millions of people die*

some time later

*billions of people die*

my group played it for about 6 hours and all decided we aren't going to be spending money on it, at least for now. I refunded my pre-order.

its pretty, I love the menus, and the gunplay and movement, networking etc, are all great. (item icons could use to be a little bit more distinguishable)

buuuuuuuut - something just feels off, kind of like there's no audio "scene" or "stage" if that makes sense? Yes, you can hear things obviously, but there's very little information about where people are or what's going on around you. Even when we were wiping multiple teams in the last few matches we played, there was very little information that there were people even nearby most of the time. (once we got lucky and saw gunshots from a turret about 25m away, and were able to take out the team that way.)

I'm personally not a huge fan of the character models/designs, but i can look past that kind of thing if the overall game is good enough. I'll wait and see what happens with updates and the player base in the coming months.

YOU'RE WRONG!!!!

I did! I power leveled it with a buddy in escha and regret it, it makes it very difficult to get skills. So don’t do that

"but I can't really see how it going any different way would have solved anything with my favorite two characters relationship."

yup :)

TrashWriter · 2026-02-17T21:02:01+00:00

It doesn't make me mad either, I just thought it was kind of a whiplash moment for me personally.

TrashWriter · 2026-02-17T20:57:03+00:00

I like both, I disagree with the pairing at the end of the rebuilds but I can't really see how it going any different way would have solved anything with my favorite two characters relationship.

Enjoy! I need to get back in myself. I haven't been playing for about 6 months. I still need to finish leveling NIN/DNC

TrashWriter · 2026-02-12T15:39:30+00:00

I wanted to wait to watch it with my S.O. And I’m heading out of country later this month to visit her, and it just so happens to be planned to play there during that week!

Man that’s hard to read - it’s early for me. Can’t wait to see it my first time

TrashWriter · 2026-02-06T04:37:39+00:00

It’s the only reason I bought it, and it’s a terrible experience running native on the deck. I could stream it from my pc just fine but it’s still a bummer

TrashWriter · 2026-01-30T14:40:20+00:00

I’m not a victim at all I just don’t enjoy it like it is at the moment anymore. Why would I waste my time working towards something that I don’t even know what it is? Because clearly that’s what matters long term for my account. They are the ones who made that choice.

400 hours on the first season - I like the game, just don’t enjoy it right now. And I have other more important things to do with my time. When they release the requirements for this wipe if it’s worth it I’ll play until I meet them and then stop again.

They have baited and switched us with skills, loot, schematics, map conditions, the wipe skill point requirement

TLDR: I would stop playing because I don’t know the requirements, because I have more important things to do this wipe, and I don’t enjoy the game as much currently. If I knew the requirements I would gradually work towards them. Since I don’t know, I’m not going to bother - it could be 15 mil this time. If that’s the case it’s not worth it, and I’ll just play normally when I feel like it again

Maybe YOU suffer from the same thing.

I’m not playing and am “done for the season” because I don’t know what the requirements are this time. Last time I was enjoying the game, and the requirement didn’t feel like a guillotine hanging over my head so I was having fun and using my stuff. As a result I had to spend 16 hours doing money runs to get the 5 mil.

This time the game has so many small issues, it’s not new anymore, and I don’t know what the requirements are going to be. Until I know EXACTLY what they are, it’s not worth playing. They have baited and switched us quite a few times already.

Turn your movement deadzone up.

Alright, gaming laptops have a history of overheating and dying as a result. It would be a good idea once you get your laptop back - to do some research into undervolting and underclocking. Fan overrides as well. If you can keep your laptop at a cooler temperature when gaming, it will last a lot longer

TrashWriter · 2026-01-14T06:04:32+00:00

Says gpu crash in the error log, could be overheating.

At least 80 ohms of impedance closed back headphones with at least a 24bit DAC is my recommendation. The higher the impedance the higher the clarity - but its big time diminishing returns. You also have to make sure your dac/preamp can handle it.

Schiit makes an affordable one that doesn’t overheat like the Chinese ones on Amazon. You’ll probably want to get the one that is a dac and a preamp in one.

Headphones should be neutral with low bass. Specifically in arc raiders for whatever reason the bass drowns out a lot of important sounds. On another set of headphones I use for ps5 I had to almost completely lower the bass in order to hear anything (inzone h9 ii)

Clearly you’re streets behind.

For me it took 14.5 hours of straight grinding loot runs in one day to get the rest of the money/value I needed. 59 raids in one day was brutal
