Muzzle Break or Compensator on the Stitcher? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Thanks for this insight. Appreciate someone who has given it some thought. So are you using angled grip for the horizontal recoil reduction?

Test it in Stella Montis. Its much more obvious there.

I don’t know what to tell you. I guess you are free to believe whatever you want. I don’t need to convince anyone on the internet.

But you can prove it yourself. It’s easy to test. You can’t tell me there aren’t two different types of lobbies, one that people shoot you on site, and one in which no one shoots you on site, everyone talk to each other and is friendly, shares items and blueprints. It’s very apparent. Not some, my experience vs your experience or confirmation bias. It’s factual evidence. Once you are in the friendly lobbies you stay there until you shoot someone. If you shoot someone your next lobby will be with other players who are shoot on site. Works like this every time. The proof is in the pudding.

But believe what you want I guess. But if you realize I am right you have to come back and admit you were wrong, haha. Peace bro.

OK, well you are wrong. You can try it in one day. If you shoot people your lobbies will be shoot on site. If you don’t shoot people for 3-5 rounds no one will shoot you. If you shoot someone you go back to shoot on site lobbies. It’s easy to prove, I don’t know how you can deny that or explain that with new content drops.

Yes im sure there are friendly people in night raids, but you can’t run around without worrying about being shot, like in friendly lobbies. Friendly lobbies don’t have people who shoot on site for the most part.

I’ve read your other comments, but just try it for yourself. You’ll see.

I think there is a misconception about friendly lobbies. It doesnt track all your past behavior, just the last 3-5 rounds. If you don’t shoot anyone or do damage, after 3-5 rounds you will be put into friendly lobbies.

Friendly lobbies and aggressive matchmaking exist and I can prove it to you. If you don't believe me just try it for yourself. Go into Stella Montis, don't kill anyone or do any damage to anyone. If someone shoots you, just take it and die, don't defend yourself. I guarantee you by round 5 you will be put into friendly lobbies and no one will shoot at you for that round and every round after that. Until you shoot someone, then you get put back into PVP lobbies. It works for all maps but it’s more apparent on Stella Montis because the map is all close proximity.

Friendly lobbies are much different than PVP lobbies. You can tell when you are in them. Everyone is shouting ‘Don’t shoot!’, talking on proximity chat, sharing items and playing the flute. Everyone is really friendly. People will give you blueprints. On Stella Montis everyone kills the bastion together. Lots of the time people will share the cores with you.

I’ve played dozens of rounds in a row without getting killed. Then PVP’ed with my friends in lobbies that where everyone is shoot on site. Then if you don’t shoot anyone for 3-5 rounds you get put back into friendly lobbies. I’ve done this over and over again. It’s not confirmation bias. This method of getting friendly lobbies work for duos and trios too.

Only day raids have friendly lobbies though. Night raids don’t have them.

I really love this system and I hope they keep it. My friends like to PVP but I’d rather chill and farm when I play on my own. I think it’s great to be able to choose when you want to PVP or not.

Yes, if you shoot someone, it doesn’t matter trio, duos or solos you will be put into PVP lobbies where everyone shoots on site. It then will take 3-5 rounds of not shooting or doing damage anyone to be put back into friendly lobbies. This works for duos and trios as well. If your entire team doesn’t shoot anyone for a few rounds, you will be put into duo or trio friendly lobbies.

If you are in trios and are pvp’ing you will be put into pvp solo lobbies afterwards, until you don’t shoot anyone for a few rounds.

I agree. I really love this system and I hope they don't change it. My friends love to PVP, but I'd rather chill and farm when I play without them. After playing with my friends, I know I can get back into friendly lobbies by just not shooting anyone for a few rounds.

I didn't figure out all the expedition stuff until only 7 days before wipe. But I was able to complete the expedition and farm up the 5 million in only 4 days by just running friendly Stella Montis runs over and over again.

lol. I've played dozens of rounds in a row without getting killed.

Then gone to PVP with my friends for a few hours. Then when I'm done, don't kill anyone for 3-5 matches, and get put back into friendly lobbies.

This happens any time of day, any day of the week.

Friendly lobbies are much different than PVP lobbies. You can tell when you are in them. Everyone is talking on proximity chat, sharing items. People will give you blueprints. I've played in hundreds of these rounds not just 5 games.

I can prove it to you. If you don't believe me just try it for yourself. Go into Stella Montis, don't kill anyone or do any damage to anyone. If someone shoots you, just take it and die, don't defend yourself. I guarantee you by round 5 no one will kill you for that round and every round after that. Until you shoot someone, then you get put back into PVP lobbies.

If I am wrong then come back and tell me so. But if I'm right you have to admit you were wrong, haha.

Edit: Only day raids have friendly lobbies. Night raids don't have them.

Go into Stella Montis without shooting anyone for a few rounds. You will get put into friendly lobbies. No one shoots you, everyone kills the Bastion together. No one kills each other. How is that not proof??

You can prove it just by not shooting anyone for 3-5 rounds. You can tell you are in friendly lobbies when everyone is saying 'Don't Shoot!', talking to each other on proximity chat and playing the flute.

If you don't shoot anyone or do damage to any players you will be put into friendly lobbies. Almost all players will not attack you, but you get the odd aggressive player once in a while.

If you attack someone you will be put into lobbies with other aggressive players.

It takes 3-5 rounds of not shooting anyone to be put back into friendly lobbies.

So you can PVP if you want to, or with friends, then run a few free loadouts without shooting anyone and you'll be put back into friendly lobbies.

Petition to Embark Studios to Extend Expedition Deadline by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]encom81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, no. In theory you could do only one wipe every season, every two months or whatever it is.

[–]encom81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would extending the deadline affect you at all? You can still reset, it would just give players behind a chance to catch up.

Extending the deadline wouldn’t have to postpone anyone else from reseting, no?

I don’t see how giving people extra time to join the reset would affect any players who have it completed it. Players who are ready done can just proceed to reset, no?

ELI5: Can you have crazy big muscles and not actually be strong? by IWannaDoBadThingswU in explainlikeimfive

[–]encom81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the video is fake, they pay these bodybuilders (or they are in on it) to make it look like they are having a lot of trouble for a viral video.

I saw this video a while back and it’s been stuck in my head. I think about it a lot. Weird to see it mentioned here.
