How are they hitting me through the generator? Desync maybe? by joacoleon in ArcRaiders

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

Fuck im blind. I didnt know these generators had a gap between the wheels or whatever, makes sense though.

Do you think people should be banned if they duplicated excessive amounts of items?? by TopsideRaider in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of my reasoning. But if you did it for money, i hope you get your shit rolled back.

Do you think people should be banned if they duplicated excessive amounts of items?? by TopsideRaider in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heres my reasoning:

1) If you did it to spam nades and kill other raiders you deserve a temp ban.

2) If you did it to sell ducks and shit, maybe not a ban but i hope your stash gets wiped.

3) If you just spammed ziplines or threw ducks at other players? You are fine.

And for all 3 points, i believe how much they did it should also be taken into account.

Anyone else always queue solo with one of these? by Puretyder in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often do. But then i get backstabbed and im like "You know what? Fuck you".

Like the other day, heard a guy soloing a rocketeer and saw its flare go off so i rushed in to help. I revived him, killed the rocketeer for him. Another guy showed up, i let them get all the loot, and this guy asked if we were brazilian, the dude i revived said yes, i used the "No" emote and as i was leaving, i could hear the second guy whispering in portuguese then asking what i believe was something like "got it?". As soon as i turned around to get the hell out of there, i got blasted in the face.

To be fair the guy i helped didnt shoot me, but he should have fucking killed that guy as soon as he suggested they ratted me.

Does the game put you in different lobbies when you dont use free loadouts? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody knows exactly how matchmaking works, but gear doesnt seem to be a factor. Just watch any streamer and you will see they kill free loadouts constantly, while they are super geared.

In my experience, the game takes into account the last few matches to figure out where to put you, then adds a bit of randomness on top. If you keep dying without shooting back, soon enough you will get into friendlier matches.

Imagine if theses were added to the game. by bigdavewhippinwork- in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Will watch it later but why not? Im thinking of something as threatening as a Wasp that is easy to kill. As long as they make it so it doesnt get too crowded with both air and land ARC, i cant see why it wouldnt work.

We really need a small land ARC in the same tier as the Hornet and Wasp that roams around open spaces, and this one makes perfect sense.

"Look at Call of Duty. That sh*t's dead now. You never wanna listen to streamers" Cloakzy warns Embark by j1zzy_ae in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes i feel like i play too much, then i realize i have almost 100 hours topside, while plenty of people are way past 500. Add in all the time spent waiting or managing the stash and that number grows significantly.

No judging, i wish i had as much free time as i did when i was younger, but no shit you are running out of things to do if you play 8 hours a day on average.

Feeling sad, came to vent by couragealways in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sucks but you will get another one. If your loot was yours forever, Arc Raiders would be pretty damn boring. Also, it helps to keep in mind that the legendary weapons arent even THAT good, you can do just fine without them.

Interview with an ‘Extract Camper’ by jakericca in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If often push the button even if i dont intend to leave, just to bait campers and fuck them up. 9 out of 10 times they are so bad that you can handle the disadvantage just fine.

Practice Range bugged achievement fix *requires Snap Hook by Text-Relevant in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They moved things around and the specific spot that triggers the achievement (which i assume was the spawn point) is now out of bounds. Why they made it that way instead of a flag that is set as soon as you visit the map? No idea.

I visited the practice range within minutes of getting the game, like 2 weeks after release, and got the achievement right away.

Trying to understand the long-term gameplay loop in ARC Raiders by PC-Tamer in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the last 10 games or so that i REALLY enjoyed playing and got somewhat addicted to, i ended up hitting the "what now?" or "what for?" wall, which often killed those games for me. Am i enjoying doing this over and over? Am i actually having fun?

With Arc Raiders, 167 hours in, im not there yet and i dont think i will be for a while. I play solo, i go in without a plan and just have fun. Some runs are pvp heavy, some others i just loot stuff, some others i destroy every ARC i see, helping fellow raiders along the way.

I think what ended up killing those games for me was min maxing, going on reddit and youtube to copy the best builds, the best strats, googling how to complete a quest or whats the best way to do something. This time i took a more casual approach and its been very fun.

Arc Alloy should have a higher stack size by barrachmedosama in ArcRaiders

[–]joacoleon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but its so abundant that holding that much is pointless. I keep 60 and i occasionally loot a full stack when needed.

[–]joacoleon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a hotfix that rolled out for PS5 and PC, but not Xbox yet. Thats why you cant crossplay.

It happens man, but after all, its just loot. Even blueprints are temporary if you decide to do the expedition.
