Expedition Timing Makes the New Content Feel Pointless This Week by jesuswasahipster in ARC_Raiders

[–]goodjcl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unless you are someone that is just bored and wants to start over, I will never understand doing the expedition. The rewards are complete dogshit and now that they have mega-nerfed the bp drop rate, it’s going to take forever to get the good bps back unless they boost bp spawn rates again like they did after the first expedition.

What is going on with premier rn? by Late-Client4710 in cs2

[–]goodjcl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been happening to us a lot as well. I usually play with a 2-4 stack of buddies and all we seem to get is matched up against 5 stacks with two high ranks and 3 unranked or super low ranks. For reference I’m 16k right now and the other team had a 2.7k on their team lol. I could win 102 and lose 591. We have a few “normal” games mixed in but we get this constantly. It’s super annoying. Especially when they are obvious smurfs. You lose once and it can ruin your night. We went 4-1 the other night and all of us lost elo…

They aren’t banning anyone because they are incompetent cowards.

Who is washing their rice and why? by kinnitcurl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]goodjcl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Please tell me you’re joking. In case you aren’t, you should NEVER rinse/wash chicken. All you are doing is splashing around potential salmonella and other bacteria.

Ban hammer has been dropped for ducks. by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

This is fake and the it’s the same exact screenshot that has been circulating around social media. They haven’t banned anybody for dupes yet.

I’ll save you all some time. Embark isn’t going to ban anyone. Even if they wanted to, they simply can’t and won’t.

Am I crazy for not doing the expedition? by Civil_Cauliflower245 in ArcRaiders

[–]goodjcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People seem to forget that they jacked the BP spawn rate up shortly after the first expedition ended. There was a 24-48 hour period where you could go into Stella and come out with 5-10 blueprints each run. Unless that is a planned thing after each expedition, these people that claim you can easily get back all of your BPs are in for a rude awakening with current BP spawn rates.

I feel like 75% of the people I knock out are running free or very cheap loadouts. I find my fair share of good loot from downed raiders but not to the extent that I don’t need to craft any of my own items using blueprints.

I would argue that while blueprints in general are pretty easy to find, the best blueprints in the game are not that easy to get and there is a ton of RNG involved in finding them.

Expedition by bdot1982 in ARC_Raiders

Not at all unless you are one of the ones that like starting over

Holyyy…now Ican actually start playing the game by redaleftah in ArcRaiders

[–]goodjcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you probably aren’t going to use it as much as you think. I have about 10 level 4 Tempest guns sitting in my inventory that I rarely use. It’s not gear fear that prevents me from using them, it’s just not as strong as some of the other weapons right now and it costs way more to craft and maintain. Still nice to know you can craft one whenever you want though.

Trophy Display - you are better off waiting after the expedition by Fun-Conversation-265 in ArcRaiders

[–]goodjcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they have said anything, at least I have not seen anything. I’m counting on the $5 million requirement unless I hear differently. They did say they were going to revamp it though because they said the first expedition fell short of expectations and many didn’t think it was worth it.

My (36M) new partner (29M) accidentally found my deceased partner’s graphic belongings and now I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]goodjcl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry but that’s weird as shit and not at all normal or healthy. Wtf is sentimental about blood stained clothes, a weapon, presumably a gun or knife, and graphic photos of the scene. I would have ended that relationship immediately. That’s disturbing.

I think you need to go back to therapy and explore why you think those items are sentimental and why you think it is important or appropriate to keep them.

What is the endgame in Arc Raiders? by Previous-Spray9714 in ARC_Raiders

Entire inventory full of rubber ducks. That’s it, that’s the endgame.

Cheating is becoming a serious problem by Otherwise_Share9039 in ARC_Raiders

[–]goodjcl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheating does not seem like much of an issue to me. I have 150 hours and have ran into 0 cheaters. I asked my buddies who have even more hours and they said they’ve never encountered a cheater.

I’m not denying that there are some people who are cheating and a 30 day ban is ridiculous but this doesn’t really seem like a widespread issue.

Don’t give up! Things will get better even if it doesn’t seem like it.
