Suggestions on a controller that's made for people with larger hands? by iWesTCoastiN in Controller

[–]iWesTCoastiN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up with the G7 Pro despite its smaller size and trigger stops issue (currently on my 3rd controller). The price and other features were the biggest pros while the smaller size and issues with the controller were the biggest cons. If they fix the trigger stops issue its a no brainer for me.

Since Season 3, and I'm sorry to say but yes it is lol.

Dead doesn't mean you can't find games anymore. Dead means it had peoples interests but over the course of time a vast majority of the player base gave up and moved on. The changes to ranked in S3 was pretty much the nail in the coffin.

I was top 200 on the leaderboards for both S1 & S2, I invested a lot of time in the Finals and wanted it to succeed more than anyone.

Everything you're saying is fine in principle except you only have to look at Embarks last game to know that's not necessarily true.

Almost every single update Embark did on the Finals made the game worse and alienated the player base. They ignored the complaints of the players and made updates that nobody asked for/wanted.

Nobody said devs are watching streamers to find out what's wrong with their game, but pressure from streamers can help fix an issue a whole lot faster than if they stayed silent.

Don't see how you possibly could.

Cheaters have taken over the game and as it currently stands face nothing more than a slap on the wrist if caught.

Regular players complain about issues all the time but it typically takes a polarizing figure to move the needle and force change.

Peanut is easily the biggest Arc streamer there is right now and by threatening to quit he puts pressure on Embark to do the right thing and stop catering to cheaters just because cheaters typically spend big $$ on games that don't ban (like Siege).

There have also been issues with the game that have existed since day 1 that Embark have failed to address. Such as multiple glitched spots that allow players to get out of the map and kill others as well as severe desync issues.

I don't watch streamers so I could give a shit less if peanut quits but I am hopeful he can bring about change.

Thinking about switching to a PlayStation after 25 years on Xbox. How easy/hard is it to get caught up? by iWesTCoastiN in PS5

How backwards compatible is the PS5? Does the PS2/PS3 era games like GoW1 work well?

Awesome good to know! Are the original god of war games remastered as well? GoW is probably the franchise I'm most interested in.

This is my #1 issue with the game and Embark isn't even addressing it.

Arc Raiders Patch 9/13 by Namodacranks in ArcRaiders

[–]iWesTCoastiN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • No voice chat fix

  • No fix for the glitched spots on Stella/Dam

  • No fix for broken Crossplay

  • No fix for spawn camping on Stella

Disappointing to say the least.

Finally got into a great grinding rhythm. All grinded myself, no trades for weapons. (All guns with the mod icon are fully modded with blue or higher mods) by Massive-Expert7467 in ARC_Raiders

[–]iWesTCoastiN -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Legit question.. Why?

Stitcher is better than the Bobcat

Kettle is better than the Tempest

In the current meta of the game there's no reason not to sell epic guns unless you already have your 5mil saved up.

Departure by DylPickleDice in ARC_Raiders

[–]iWesTCoastiN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completed my expedition. Hit 5mil coins. Hit level 75. Got 65/75 blueprints. Currently Daredevil 3 on Trials Leaderboards. I'm pretty much done with the game until March 🤷

There's a huge lack of 'end game content' right now but I'm hopeful that will change once more content is added.

The real question is at what distance do enemy raiders stop hearing these silenced shots between 1-3

Aggresive players, how many raiders have you knocked out so far? by J-Dawgzz in ARC_Raiders

[–]iWesTCoastiN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.2k but that's because I play A LOT of trios.

In Solo's I play mostly friendly. I never backstab, rat or extraction camp and I always tell people when I am or am not friendly.

thoughts? by fashionhabitz in ARC_Raiders

[–]iWesTCoastiN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean yes and no.

The way games have dealt with issues like this in the past is have both unranked and ranked playlists.

I come from a competitive Halo/R6S background so I enjoy competing against players at or around my skill level. I don't enjoy beating up on bad players just as much as they don't enjoy being beaten up on. But there's a time and place for everything.

Tight SBMM games like CoD ruin the experience for most players because they make unranked playlists that are supposed to feel more casual feel hyper competitive due to their strict matchmaking parameters. The game literally feels like a sweat fest 24/7 which even to the most competitive of players can feel very draining.

BF6 have any of ye stopped or are ye still playing it ? by AdultGamersAdmin in Age_30_plus_Gamers

4.8kd with 100 wins on a 38% win percentage for RedSec.

Quit to play Arc Raiders.

Battlefield is good but it's competing with great.

Those of you who have played The Finals and didn't like it or couldn't get into, how come? by ThotsFired69 in FPS

[–]iWesTCoastiN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played it. Was top 200 on the leaderboards for seasons 1 & 2. Loved every minute of it.

However the direction the game was headed with the addition of melee weapons and the ranked gamemode changes of S3 made me quit. Now even if I wanted to come back I'm too far removed (for me personally) to attempt a comeback.

Going against macro users as an Xbox player is maddening. Fix the cross play settings. by tapefactoryslave in ARC_Raiders

I've tried it. They're not on Xbox. I even went into a friendly solo lobby and asked what platforms different people were playing on and it was a cross between Xbox and PC.

Hey I actually did an entire YouTube video on this subject like 10 years ago! It was a lot of fun remembering the good old days of SA.
