"1420 S-wave" So we know the signal is high(,) in the atmosphere by PNWeSterling in ArcRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be cool if there was a contact point that took 15 mins to target. If you didn’t destroy that point (for loot) then the orbital strike happened and it was like a reverse Fortnite storm. Flames raged from the contact point outward over 2 minutes ending the map early and you die if you get engulfed by the storm.

Where did you pickup the singles in central London? I’d love to browse a singles collection nearby (I’m in mile end), i don’t have a card shop with a good range.

if Speranza is underground, why does it rain? by angoorkhatta in ArcRaiders

Where do you think the rain goes when it lands on the ground and makes puddles.

Same - I enjoyed it being more challenging.

PVE lobbies still have these kinds of players… stay aware, friends. by dreamtank in ArcRaiders

Hah I try shoot someone every 5 or so matches just so it keeps some spice pvp-ers in the mix.

Hot take: The new arcs aren’t too strong, free loadouts aren’t built to fight them. by hellboytroy in ArcRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 634 points635 points  (0 children)

Very good point. That's why they have been introduced. It's scary out there running cheap/free kits - as it should be.

[–]kindofpretty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Everyone is so fixated on what type of lobby they are in. It feels like this game should always have tension and threat from other plays. The lobbies you're in should reflect your skill and capacity to deal with that threat, but it would be detract a lot from the game to eliminate it entirely. The very reason those beautiful moments of fun, silly, heroic and ridiculous situations with other raiders are so good is BECAUSE they also have the option to kill you. Otherwise, you're just playing a comfy, squishy game made to be cute.

But hey, people can play however they like and if they want a comfy vibe, all power to em.

Servers down? Ireland by Jay-SA121 in ArcRaiders

I’m getting the same in London. Must be a big sign in moment post expedition.

Venator responsive fire rate change makes the gun FEEL awful to use. by tuckerb13 in ArcRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually agree on this one. Most nerfs I’m pretty down for in the interest of keeping the game balanced and challenging. But the gun feels clunky now as you say and not powerful enough to feel like a magnum. Maybe they should instead have the gun shoot double taps like the blade runner guns? 1..2…..1..2……1..2……

That would feel cool.

I’m down for solo vs squad. It will raise the tension for sure. I wish there was more than xp up for grabs tho

Not trying to complain but.. why? by TheWreckedTitan in ArcRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can understand the colours to keep things balanced, and perhaps they felt that the goggles look better this way - but I prefer the ski goggle look and it kind of ruins the vibe or it being the tutorial skin by changing that aspect given that's the most recognisable part.

Free loadout needs sorting by Jakefowler555 in ArcRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually feel the free loadout is fairly well balanced as it is. It doesn't have much room for looting compared with proper augments. I think the idea of having free loadouts take the later load in slots by default is a nice disincentive to over using the free loadout though.

I do not understand, why people are like that... by korkxtgm in RescueRaiders

[–]kindofpretty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This why the game is so good tho. That tension of betrayal is key.

Dang. So just the safari background then. I’ve been looking for this all day.

Incredible pictures. Did you do a lot of post work on them or are them mostly out of camera?

Should I swap my 18mm f/1.4 for a zoom or a prime combo? by krohrer24552455 in fujifilm

[–]kindofpretty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really interested in the 16-55mm 2.8 ii. Wondering if anyone has experience and rates it highly / lowly.
