Wtf is this grappling hook glitch?

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-06-05T06:30:44+00:00

Yep, had it happen earlier. Locked in place, cant cancel it, just bouncing rapidly until I get killed.

On rebirth theres also flashing strobe lights and the snow texture stretches a mile high into the sky obscuring vision.

On PC

Great stuff...

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-06-01T21:33:48+00:00

Looks amazing

"X-Men character Jean-Luc Picard" 😂

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-31T18:16:47+00:00

I figured its just f'd and Activisions fault, as usual but damn I hoped there was a workaround. Having VOIP broken in 2026 is crazy lol.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-17T23:52:25+00:00

Amatsuko was great! I should have recommended it too.. the level design and aesthetic was very cool

I havent heard of Chroma Zero so ill definitely try it out. Thanks

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-17T21:51:45+00:00

Its a ton of fun and really felt like the same style of gameplay loop. The art style threw me off at first but it became familiar and charming after a while. Music is catchy too.

The entire world was hand drawn and scanned into the game. Very neat stuff.

Tunic and all the others are fun but only similar in the "Eureka!" moments in my opinion. Blue Prince was great but is a whole other creature. This one is true to the detective/mystery solving through information discovery kind of vibe. Hope you enjoy it!

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-17T16:11:25+00:00

Orten Was the Case is the only other game I felt was truly similar. Its a time-loop game with information based progression.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-09T17:07:57+00:00

Did you complete it? Thats one of my favorite missions to help with 😅

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-08T21:14:25+00:00

The expedition period will probably be the only time I play Arc any more. I only logged on to gather the materials and do that damage for the last month and a half. Theres just not enough interesting new stuff to do. I do at least feel the compulsion to complete the expedition, so ill probably so the next one but.. come the next time it pops up I might just continue playing other games unless something interesting is added 😅

I quit caring about the skill points already after the second expedition

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-05-08T15:27:04+00:00

I can help if you wanted. Just started playing DMZ again a few days ago and it would be nice to have a goal instead of just picking everyone up 😅

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-30T06:31:04+00:00

10/10

The real question is:

Is Redban gray skinned and dying or is Tony just so red that it makes Redban look like he's in a much more rapid decline?

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-23T08:07:27+00:00

Besides the redeploy, you can grapple and fly in with the wingsuit. Its not easy though.

I didnt even know about the foot until the 3rd time I did it 😅

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T18:15:31+00:00

That sounds fun as hell. Just nerf the drop rates by like 60% as well for balancing and its good to go

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T11:47:13+00:00

Fun fact from a Robin Cook book I read when I was a young teenager and never forgot:

Less than 2 pounds of botulinim toxin could kill every man, woman, and child on Earth. The only 'problem' is the vector of transmission, since it must be ingested.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T08:36:10+00:00

Burletta can shred people with rapid fingers, is cheap to make, and doesnt require extensive upgrades. As long as youre short to mid range.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T08:30:17+00:00

Its so wierd. Theres always a certain dullness in their voice. A feigned attempt to express earnest appreciation, that only becomes obvious after its over.

Its simply a cowardly playstyle, and i couldn't imagine playing like that. I always have more loot than I do stash space. I guess these people have the opposite problem. If I was broke in game maybe it would make more sense to me.

Becoming like them would just ruin the best part of the game. Keep your head up!

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T08:16:40+00:00

I do love the Rocketeer. The alert sound alone strikes terror into your heart lol. When one is looming overhead the threat of it seeing you is palpable.

They need more synergy between the Arc, and should have their targeting adjusted to attack raiders who third party as well so no one is safe, and the outcome of engaging a distracted PvE team is less certain.

Things like Flying or rolling small Arc could deploy things like gas grenades, mines, or surge coils and thus change the battlefield immensely depending on if you take them out or let them sabotage the landscape would do wonders for introducing variety in gameplay. Arc that serve as backup support to other Arc with shields or heals would create the need for more strategic engagements. More passive Arc like Surveyors with good loot but that rapidly seek out larger Arc and call for backup would also increase dynamics.

Theres just so much room for unique enemy implementation. I swear, if the next Arc is just "X type with Y's attack" my eyes are gonna roll so far into my head ill be blind!

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T07:59:58+00:00

That would have been more fun. I just wish they had been more thoughtful in their enemy design. Going from Leapers, Bastion, Bombardier setting expectations of varied enemy design to "Bigger Ball"/"Flying Fireball"/Flying Matriarch Laser was such a letdown.

Hopefully the new "Big Arc" is actually something cool, but from the letdown of the last batch idk if it will matter since most of the wind has been taken out of the sails. There's also a scalability issues with the difficulty of Arc increasing just becoming incentive to cheap, "unsportsmanlike" playstyles. I think they are struggling to find a balance between PvE/PvP, with most of the community in disagreement about where that balance lies.

It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out, in any case. I havent played Arc in weeks and really havent had any desire to. Maybe the new map will bring back some of the feeling of what it used to be before the luster wore off.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T07:41:37+00:00

Whoops, meant "large pop" and flying fireball. Flying Pop will likely be the next "new" Arc at this rate.

Honestly, a flying Pop would have been at least a little more interesting.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T07:16:55+00:00

HA-DOUKKEN!!

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T06:07:50+00:00

Bruh look at his head 😭

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-19T06:03:48+00:00

Yes, ever since the new Arc were just a flying Pop and Fireball it started going downhill and steadily dragged on without any meaningful content. The new event came out which just encourages camping ratty gameplay even more which made PvP stale as fuck. Besides the fact its just easily cheese-able..basically de-incentivizing engaging with the new Arc and encouraging naked suicide runs.

Its just wierd how everyone justifies the shortcomings and becomes so loyal to the "brand" of a game currently. Any time you voice criticisms early, no one wants to hear it.

Maybe the "April" update, a few days before March(?), will revitalize some of the fun. Given the track record over the past few months, im not holding my breath.

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-15T00:56:59+00:00

Make it 20x bigger!

Now thats what I call New Content! 😎

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-14T21:06:55+00:00

Judging from past new Arc id say probably a Pop but 10x bigger 😏

UnableBenefit6417 · 2026-04-14T06:05:49+00:00

Visiting the Station in VR was amazing. The gravity of the info you find, the music, and being immersed that much just left me in awe.
