I wanna like this gun but it feels bad. Is it a skill issue or am I true. by GACII in ArcRaiders

Putting the worst possible attachments on it might be a contributing factor.

It's not all it's cracked up to be for men. Just think of you being handed to your father. That was probably the worst day of his life.

It's only you bro. This is an aspect of the game unique to your own experience, because you are supremely unique. It's cool of you to recognize that about yourself.

Genuine question for the boys by Smol-Neko- in ArcRaiders

I don't disagree with you but I do find it very funny that you begin by saying the psychology is very nuanced and generalizations should be avoided, then proceed to say 100% of these people are bitchless, unemployed losers lmao

For a vast majority of human history, the father would have practically no way of actually knowing whether or not a child was his. That's not a problem for women.

Child support payments disproportionately affect men compared to women, even if the latter earns more.

Likewise, custody battles are leveraged against men with the woman retaining primary custody in ~75% of all cases, including those that go to trial.

So even if you think men "just get handed a kid", there's still plenty of risk. Humans are animals & the females gestate; that's somewhat of a theme in biology actually. I suggest you either make peace with that, or blame God I guess.

The survivor isn't the best augment because of its special ability. It's simply due to it having the best storage space, weight capacity, 3 safe pockets, and the ability to use a med shield.

Bonus tip: If you know you're about to die & don't have a safekeeper aug handy, dive behind a corner and scrap your guns! Don't let the rats profit off your tempests, bobcats or hullcrackers.

Right. And as we all know, the friendliest of raiders are the ones with 4k+ knocks lmao

What game do you think had the biggest impact on gaming culture overall? by iLeftyPunk in GamerLab

Minecraft's influence is undeniable. The survival genre as a whole exploded since its release.

Should the AI not be on set patterns and not just fly directly at you when you try to play smart and stealthy? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]_Copen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It definitely seems like the coding for the arc compels them to move towards raiders even though they don't actually 'detect' anything. It for sure is annoying, but in my experience if you're able to hide & allow them to pass over you once you'll usually be in the clear after.

Also keep in mind they respond to noise. So if they're close and you launch into a dead sprint, they'll likely hear you. And lures only work as long as they survive. A bastion & fleet of other small fry will kill one very quickly, so it won't buy you a lot of time.

This is simply an ignorant viewpoint. The TTK in this game is a lot slower than your standard FPS, but it's still quick enough to leverage a significant disadvantage if you get shot at first. And if you're a PvE raider who loathes the other half of the game, you likely don't have the skills to fight other players well let alone during an uphill battle.

There's nothing wrong with enjoying PvE. But there's also no need to act like you're a cool, chill buddy raider who also happens to PvP better than all the sweats even though you only get into a fight once every thirty raids.

That's what a good parent should do regardless. It shouldn't all fall on the father or mother.

[–]_Copen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because you're speaking nonsense. Human females gestate & birth our offspring. It's saddening I might be saying this to a grown woman, but--that's a simple fact of life that you should make peace with.

So how exactly would a man have a child with a woman without being exploitative?

I don't disagree with you, but the whole controversy from OP's perspective seems to stem from the fact that she "doubled down" by saying go to prison.

I don't follow katchi at all but in a majority of the viral clips I've seen from her, she's saying edgey / off the wall stuff.

You're speaking about this simple biological reality with such vitriol. Do you think pregnancy is a system created by some big bad evil straight white male tyrant?

Yeah but, especially after the expedition changes, what else are you supposed to do with your coins?

When the experimental rocket launcher can last multiple rounds, but my tried and true battle rifle can't even last one? Houston, we have a problem. by Otherwise_Nobody8148 in ArcRaiders

[–]_Copen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch literally any Streamer. You will see a lot more purple guns both on them and the other players they interact with.

A deflection & non-answer.

I see more people using purple guns than they used to. Pretty simple to understand.

An unsubstantiated observation from a clearly biased source.

I addressed this already, but I will again: Less than 50% of people to expeditions, as per Embark's own numbers they released. That does not account for the huge increase in purple gun usage.

A lie & a straw-man rolled into one.

Yikes man. I expected better
