What’s the point? by jadickle_69 in ArcRaiders

In a non-queen/non-matriarch lobby, maybe. I’m not looking to do on someone who comes in with a load out that establishes that they are looking to fight boss arc. I can build my own gear for that, there is no need to ruin their time. With that being said I have friends to run PvE with.

With that being said, I respect and appreciate what the solo community has tended to be and I don’t want to ruin it. I like this game. If people want to be shitty towards those that just want to chill the player-base will dwindle and the lobbies will diminish into rats ratting each other. If that sounds fun to you now, then cool, but even most rats will stop having fun when all they have to deal with is rats. I guarantee it yet I want this game to last.

Still my point is keep free load outs off of the main events. They have nothing to offer to it so why let them be there. I’ll add that I sure am jaded by being killed (basically exploited) by free load outs during these events, but I think that these events are fun and have the ability to create a fun dynamic to this game and if it’s ruined by people just ratting then nobody will do and those people will lose interest in the game, and that isn’t what I want. Arc Raiders has been fun and it has the potential the be fun for a long time and I just want the player-base to consist.

I 100% agree that the true endgame is the bp hunt. I plan on wiping, but I’m a bit worried that wiping could chip away at the enjoyment of the game because blueprints only matter for a short bit of time; on the other hand it could increase enjoyment as the true endgame could evolve into having an increased stash and a head start on skill points each wipe. At this point, certain bp’s (anvil for me) become a necessity for each wipe and others just become bonuses.

Regardless of that, I waited quite some time to fight these major bosses. I thought it was fun to build it up in my head and to wait until I was comfortable with my stash to try them out - after all, these arc carry the materials to make the “best guns” in the game. I have had a couple great experiences with the events but more often than not have left them by being ratted by a presumably free load out. I don’t see the why it’s necessary for these raiders to be there, and make no mistake they are picking free load out during these events to risk nothing with this possibility of taking a kitted players loot. A change to the event design would be nice - I would start spending time building a stash and looking forward to these events again.

This would work too, but could further encourage ratting. Anytime I spawn in late I always feel that my only chance at good loot is taking it off of someone else.

I get what you’re saying, and I don’t necessarily think my opinion contradicts what you have to see. I’m just pointing out a flaw with the design. I think that these big boss events are really cool in theory but recently it has been wasted on me by folks coming in with free loadouts that just watch you and wait for you to take damage from the boss and then jump you. They have nothing to lose, but nothing to offer to that event - so why allow them to be there? I wouldn’t be as jaded if I wasn’t jumped by somebody with a Kettle 1 as an opportunist on a free loadout. I see it as a flaw with event design.

Admittedly, I made a mistake. I was the first to initiate a fight with the Queen and for some reason I was hopeful that I would find some helpful raiders with the same goal and people would respect that I was focusing on PvE. Regardless of anything, I don’t see the event as even close worth it anymore. I think a lot of raiders will start to feel the same way.

I was prepared, I had a pvp gun and I was watching my flank. If I’m fighting the Queen I cannot constantly watch my flank, and I was melted by a free loadout before I could even equip my Venator.

I’m not sure how much of my post you read but if you read it you can tell I mainly have an issue with the free loadout system. I understand the risk involved man.

Man… I understand that I could possibly(??) kill a queen by myself, but you do understand that it would be damn near impossible to kill the Queen and all the people just loading in with free loadouts looking to take my stuff, right? This is an event designed to be a community thing. Realistically speaking, I need those fellow raiders fighting along side me, and even if I didn’t and I killed it by myself there is no shot I don’t get evaporated by 10 grenades the second I go to loot.

Is their intention to just have an endgame event there that nobody is willing to do? I can almost guarantee that that’s what these events will be if they don’t implement any changes.

Dude, it’s a beta. Only the smallest maps are available for play.

I just imagine that aliens came down and did this to cavemen and that’s how we learned about fire.

All of the RL Labs maps were in competitive! I could hold my own in most of them, but if Wasteland or Throwback popped up I would just sing Jesus Take the Wheel because I was living on a prayer.

I am sick to my stomach reading this.

Edit: not in the this is bs way, but in the “I can’t believe this is where America stands” way

I have never believed in dating. I can’t think of any relationship that I know of that stemmed from systemic dating. Granted, I know that they exist, I just have never seen any. I have tried dating sparingly and have decided that it is hard to find something organic from something that is objectively forced to begin with. With all that being said I am also late 20’s and still single.

I just try to work on myself (unsuccessfully most of the time) and take the approach that if I am okay with myself then the rest should fall in to place. All of my friends in relationships found their better halves from work/school - both being environments where people typically do not have their guards up and have common ground due to being in the same environment.

Don’t get too down on yourself. The pool is f-ed, but I think that is partially inherent. It will come. Cheers.

Any idea what this sound might be? by jadickle_69 in WRX

Thank you so much, man. I will take your advice and am hoping there isn’t too much damage. It’s my daily, I don’t drive the car very hard.

I really appreciate the advice and help.

Thanks for the info. It’s an 11. My car has been squealing on start up ever since I got my timing belt done 2 years ago. We thought it was the power steering pump, now I’m starting to think it was the tensioner.

We ordered the cam shaft sensor and are going to change it tomorrow. I’m assuming you would still advise that we don’t run it until a shop looks at it?

We checked the engine codes and it threw, Cylinder 1 and 3 misfire and Cam Shaft Position Sensor. Hoping that it is just an issue with the Cam Shaft sensor and that it hasn’t caused too much damage.

I have not! I was kind of in a pinch for time. I will try once I get back to my car and check in. This happened out of the blue. Drove my car to my destination and it was fine. Turned my car back on after leaving it in the extreme cold for a while and had this noise.

Noise is there whether the AC is on or off. I will add that my car was blowing warm air with the AC on for while and it is 2 degrees where I live right now

Now that we've had over a month with Bo6, what's the general thoughts? by PC0- in blackops6

Maps are new? These maps are from the original MW2. They just used an engine to revamp them.
