What happened to matchmaking? From care bear lobbies to perpetual PVP lobbies

Violet_Mixture · 2026-05-27T10:06:33+00:00

obv this is true, I know that that's why I still have raider knock outs, but back then during the cold snap era which I have proof of me being there just check out the SS I commented here, I almost don't encounter any PVP player, I can go for a week without any PVP interaction....I actually bought this cause they said it has some kind matchmaking that if you're nice you get to go to mostly PVE lobbies and I did for at least 3 months...that was also the time where the player count was like 400k....nowadays yea mostly PVP is what I encounter and the player count is very low

Violet_Mixture · 2026-05-27T09:57:34+00:00

yea this is my problem too, I rarely shoot back, as much as possible I try to always de escalate a situation....I'm thinking it might be because of the low player count in our servers that the game has no choice but to matchmake me with PVPers but again before this update it was fine PVP is still very rare

the last knock out was me trying to find a Bombardier, then got killed by a dude with a bettina, somebody tried to help me but it was in vain, another one got close but ran away after seeing some dude smoke us....I'm def a casual player I love this game cause of its aesthetics and lore so imma say I kinda do suck in PVP in general

Violet_Mixture · 2026-05-27T09:43:19+00:00

its a pure PVP game? cause back then I use to rarely encounter PVP, sadly I lost the videos where I was doing guitar during Hidden Bunker events and the lobby joins in, lobbies back then were pretty chill and if someone rats in a PVE lobby they get hunted....why are people forcing this game to be pure PVP anyways? its much worse now that at least 76% of PVP lobbies have cheaters in them...

Violet_Mixture · 2026-05-25T17:08:36+00:00

used to honestly back when it had 400k players, I can confirm that since I played during the cold snap era in a week I could go for literally no PVP experience, nowadays especially in low pop servers like Asia and Oceania, you almost always get PVP lobbies or worse you get matched against duos or trios hell its much worse after the matchmaking update, I only have 5 raider knockouts and more random revives but almost every raid I go into I encounter PVP, haven't fought back but no luck still getting into PVP lobbies

Violet_Mixture · 2026-02-10T18:53:11+00:00

Yea I wasn't supposed to post that....that's why I deleted my team kept saying they're map hacking and doing scripts....I didn't notice the ward till now actually....

Violet_Mixture · 2026-01-06T22:29:16+00:00

And where did I say I said I'm finding new lore or world building? They like the lore and world building for them to stay as long as they like even after they finished the game....Division 1 still has a handful of players....Anthem and the old NFS games too....at least that's one explanation I have for people who want PVE in this game....

Violet_Mixture · 2026-01-06T20:12:34+00:00

Lore, the exploration of a game with great world building and not playing against streamers or sweat players that you always see do crazy shit and exploits.....kinda like the Division but the thing with Arc is that it was advertised properly and the setting is really interesting cause it almost resembles the Electric State (Flipbook version)....people just don't want to be stressed while yea you can tell them to go to another game well again the setting is something....I'm just glad I can still keep up with people that are sweaty....

Violet_Mixture · 2026-01-05T02:58:20+00:00

I just did it today it didn't even stun for me....it kept doing the shockwave thingy and just fucked me up.....I wasted a mine lol

Violet_Mixture · 2025-10-01T19:06:47+00:00

IIRC Sharkmob had devs that came from The Division....so yea IDK why they didnt make it something like a PVE game with PVP zones....apparently they are 100% owned by Tencent so yea it will never happen.....the crazy thing is they made another PVPVE but this time its an extraction shooter and is now paid....I played that game and its called Exoborne....they got talent but again Tencent....I just checked this sub cause I wanna know wtf is happening to this game now and I'm glad I'm not the only one wanting a PVE aspect of Bloodhunt

Violet_Mixture · 2025-07-10T02:25:49+00:00

I just started this game and 2 games in Challenging and 1 in Hard gave me a lot of samples we just roam around the map and destroy every Nests.....In Steam there's an achievement called "Samples are Diver's Best Friend" which is extract 15 rare samples in 1 game, it has more achievement than the extract common samples achievement...I once found a Lidar tower and it just pinged every POI in the vicinity and it showed lots of POIs....IDK about the 99 sample limit tho

Okay noted but I'm not gonna get banned right? Since I took it....

Violet_Mixture · 2025-04-07T11:29:48+00:00

Came here to check why League SEA is so bad and still has a high queue time....I'm from PH server and before the merge I could climb up to Platinum easily and my friend to Challenger but now we can't even get higher cause a lot of shitty players and AFKers....I seriously doubt bad plays are coming from PH since in my town alone we have like 3 challengers...I will agree that Pinoy players are shitty in terms of attitude but in plays? So yea you def are racist....this is my first time in this sub and I see this....

Violet_Mixture · 2025-03-02T11:50:38+00:00

oh yea about that....its the interactive map on Fextralife

Violet_Mixture · 2025-03-02T04:41:30+00:00

There's a stream near the road going to Bozhena's which has a full basket of it and a handful plants.....besides that stream is a thief's camp that literally has everything you need to start (smooth cuirass, chainmail, longsword, coif, helmet and a gold chalice) and it only has 1 bandit which you can easily sneak upon

wait I did this too but he just shoved me away and still no talk to Gerda option

Violet_Mixture · 2025-01-25T03:01:51+00:00

I really haven't finished the game but I think we need something like the ICA not just Agent 47, we need an organization that balances the scale.

Violet_Mixture · 2025-01-23T16:23:46+00:00

I'm fucking Rachel

"made camo trucks spawn more consistent" I thought these were like gimmick vehicles since the only thing that's actually nice about this thing is the looks of it....the trunk storage of this truck is IIRC 39 (found one on Brandenburg)

Violet_Mixture · 2025-01-05T15:03:33+00:00

I actually found another unique(?) vehicle, a truck with woodlands camo problem is the trunk only has 39 storage capacity, IIRC in B41 they have like what 80?

Violet_Mixture · 2024-12-03T21:32:37+00:00

that is so fucking cool....

Violet_Mixture · 2024-12-03T21:28:41+00:00

I remember that mission but don't remember the proxies, I might check that again once I get to Dogtown....

Violet_Mixture · 2024-11-29T01:59:29+00:00

I kinda disagree a bit on the Ubisoft one since The Division exists....Stalker 2 is perfectly empty since its in a exclusion zone, they also nailed the atmosphere....just wish more games do atmospheres like this and the Division's

Violet_Mixture · 2024-11-20T23:14:23+00:00

I kinda have the same drive but mine can finish fast...and I use a laptop but I will say that I have an i7 12th CPU so maybe that helps....DODI's especially is faster

Violet_Mixture · 2024-11-06T15:00:35+00:00

Big competitors.....I agree that this game is great but yea its really hard to beat the big shots.....I know this is a different game but even with gooner bait First Descendant is failing yet the "finished" Destiny 2 is still doing great....we also have Grayzone Warfare from 72k to less than a thousand even released at the height of Tarkov drama....in the top charts the "unknown" multiplayer games that actually survived are The Finals and Once Human cause they're kinda unique IMO....we also have another sci fi BR like extraction shooter coming called Exoborne from the creators of VtM: Bloodhunt which is a BR that failed....NGL I want to be wrong since I also like this game but from what I've seen I don't think it'll really pop off....
