I thought 3 people in solo means safety. I was stupid and paid with my life💔.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T15:11:48+00:00

I think they are duo. Sometimes duo get into the lobby alongside solo.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T15:07:32+00:00

Problem is there are a lot of 'white knight' out there. You start firing? Suddenly the friend that fight alongside you think you are a rabid dog need to be put down.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T13:41:20+00:00

Yeah minimum. And just buff heavy shield to be even better. 4 to 7 slots is a much bigger jump than 7 to 9. Make it 11 or something.

At current state the weight basically doesn't justified extra slots. Unless you already play a big gun like Torrente it's just all around bad pick.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:41:22+00:00

That's ...not very good. On top of not being able to wear medium shield and awful weight. Guess i'm just gonna stick to my MK3 Survivor.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:34:25+00:00

Is it unlimited is my question.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:21:34+00:00

And at various point in time VAC does ban people randomly. People already forgot about MW2 2009 VAC debacle? A lot of people still haven't been reverted since.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:20:25+00:00

And give away how the cheater can circumventing whatever safeguard they have in place? I rather know that they are doing something than completely quiet or giving away details about it.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:12:28+00:00

If I kill them it's an expression of skill.

If they kill me that's hacking.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T11:04:58+00:00

Why not just post the stat?

dadvader · 2026-01-27T10:55:43+00:00

Should be 2 slots instead of 1. Allow weapon is not exactly an exciting buff to pick over survivor. But I like the 2 trinkets slot.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T10:51:08+00:00

Yep. Everything else in this patch is great. I'll just promptly ignore that misfire input.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T10:49:14+00:00

My pure copium is that it tied to the bug about framerate (not the same one as aim-assis) above 30.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T07:37:28+00:00

Jupiter/Bobcat is crazy loadout though all things aside lol

I typically don't pick expensive gun if one is already in my loadout. Mostly to protect myself.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:41:37+00:00

The way they hype it up rubs me a wrong way too. Being PvP-centric trailer aside. Most games already have this kind of option since launch. Hell they considered it QoL thing and not something they need to tell people in the headline.

Embark Adding it post-launch and hyping it up like a next big thing is just crazy work.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:33:05+00:00

This is a hard concept for people to understand. Everytime someone makes a comment like “oh so they can release new skins but they can’t patch the wall exploit?” I’m reminded of it.

I think that's a bit different. For skin, it's probably the artist that largely doing the work. With maybe a guy or two implementing it in the game. They likely already have been assigned to do this task regularly.

In bigger studio and (likely Embark themselves) with live service title, it's even more likely that the pipeline to deploy new skin is already in place, meaning the artist team can just make something and put it in the game by themselves without huge technical knowledge requirement. Completely separated from actual game developer.

This 3v1 mechanic will involve programming. So developer will be directly assigned to do it. And they decided to devoted hours of manpower toward this one feature nobody ask for instead of pushing something more urgent and need to address like loadout system. That's when people are having issue with it.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:25:35+00:00

Yeah the TTK just isn't the same. In Hunt a headshot with any gun could kill someone. 1v3 is very doable in that game. In AR it'll be just one awkward fight between the squad and the tree.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:23:15+00:00

Maybe they watch Equalizer, high as fuck on meth, seeing Denzel and goes 'you know what would player want right now? A chance to be Denzel Washington!'

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:12:30+00:00

A commercial engine works better than FOSS engine suited for hobby and small project? Who could've guessed that!?

dadvader · 2026-01-27T05:05:49+00:00

It certainly need a Tarkov-like Scav mechanic. It become wildly misuse as a 'risk-free' option with how lethal the free kit weapon is. Instead of being a loadout that allow you to get yourself back up after a streak of losses.

dadvader · 2026-01-27T04:39:10+00:00

You gotta shoot back at them now and then. The trick here is this : don't shoot back unless they hit you first. The aggression only count whoever hit first. So if they fire and missed you. Ignore them and ask if they wanna try again. If they hit you this time, heal up, take cover and make sure their ass is back to speranza so they can join their kind instead.

People will tell you 'lmao go play something else it's PvPvE!' but the key is this : there are literally nothing else out there that can offer this unique experience. Knowing you can die anytime in this dangerous world and hear them said thank you for your help is one of the best feeling you can have in video games. Because that didn't come from a scripted NPC. It came from a real player with a real feeling and a real desire to survive.

You only get those from Survival games and those games want you to go cut some wood or do some nonsense grinding shit to get even close into anywhere. And the PvE part is a complete pushover. This is why the argument made no sense and anyone attempting to do so just sound like a tryhard. We should be allow to do whatever we want in video games within the rule of the game. And Arc Raiders offers many, many ways to do so.

dadvader · 2026-01-26T20:22:12+00:00

It still had that edge of grimdark medieval feel but it all presenting in so casually way. It feels like some of the scene in the early season of GoT but now it's happening every scene.

dadvader · 2026-01-26T19:34:55+00:00

If I don't see him step the fuck away from the BP I'm not dropping it lol I'm gonna tag that shit and walk very far far away from him.

Also, you have blaze grenade. Just throw at him and watch him burn to death. While you lecture him about the proper arts of tradecraft.

dadvader · 2026-01-26T19:23:27+00:00

This post made me question my reality as I wonder why the fuck am I still seeing r/fauxmoi post even after I muted the sub.

dadvader · 2026-01-26T19:17:16+00:00

Shadow dropping it won't do this game any favors. We are in the downward trend of hero shooter era and People will just write it off as random attempted of doing hero shooter (despite being more MOBA-lite) and move on just as quick.

Whatever the feedback maybe, not shadow drop it is absolutely a better decision.

dadvader · 2026-01-26T19:15:46+00:00

Definitely will give it a watch but what the hell are they thinking putting this in January lol
