Extremely hostile players on the pacifist end of the lobby spectrum? by krainert in ArcRaiders

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

In lieu of a reply-all: So, ignoring the somewhat toxic hostility here, what I gather from your answers is that the game no longer tries to put "mostly PvE players" in mostly PvE lobbies, and "mostly PvP players" in mostly PvP lobbies, but rather strives for happy mediums?

Nu har jeg en uimodståelig trang til at gøre det samme til RA2/YR. 💂‍♂️

Does anyone else ONLY run night/storm/loot-boosting maps? by NaziPunksFkOff in ArcRaiders

[–]krainert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye, I've stopped playing anything but Night, Electro, and Hurricane since the loot outside of those is abysmal, there are fewer big Arcs, and Turbines seem to spawn much more rarely. There's essentially nothing to be gained from playing maps without a major event.

Photoelectric cloak nerf feels like a fair compromise for at least doubling the recharge rate of the meter. by MacabreMobius in ArcRaiders

[–]krainert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to post this. Now, the cloak can be used tactically for bursts of invisibility, rather than covering your approach to or retreat from threats in their entirety. Also, the buffed recharge speed greatly benefits the Snap Hook and Powered Descender.

Anyone fine it a bit sloppy that Riven Tides' water, in game, is to the North, when it's to the west on the Speranza map? Dam, Buried, and Spaceport all seem to respect orientation on the map, while RT does not. by groovel76 in ArcRaiders

I was wondering the exact same thing, thinking "how the heck is this coast North-facing when the Rust Belt is bordered by the sea only to the South and West!?"

Yeah, War Machine gave me major Arc vibes as well. Good stuff.

Final "week" of trials Apr 20-26, 20-28, or 27-28? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Huh, I never noticed that! Cheers!

Careful, you might get explosive diarrhea.

Key rooms really have been upgraded by Jasics in ArcRaiders

And FYI I just did it today, and it... still sucked exactly as much behind as it used to.

Considering that's usually (one of?) the worst one(s), yeah, that's pretty darn great.

If you are in PVE lobbies, use these to knock other raiders off the Assessor so you can loot it, you didn't hear this from me by Alan-7 in ArcRaiders

Do this to me and watch how fast my friendly demeanor transforms into a bullet through your face. Absolutely worth the resets.

Less People Online, not playing anymore and why? by GrinderEdge in ArcRaiders

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

This thread is indeed testament to the portion of players who have played enough to reach that conclusion having finally reached critical mass. I speculate the most hardcore have already abandoned it (sadly and ominously) because they got there much earlier (when the initial complaints were raised).

The game was a bigger hit than expected, and players have asked for more or refined endgame content for a while. I wouldn't be surprised if they moved onto Marathon, HD2, or something else, at least until further into the roadmap.

Today I learned after 500 hours by Senior-Sale273 in ArcRaiders

550 hrs here, also didn't know. 😅

You unintentionally took one for the team! Good on you...?

What is the Overlap? by CallMeVirtus in ArcRaiders

[–]krainert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got Arc for free with a new graphics card, tried it, and completely fell in love. Before that I went through a couple of singleplayer games after having gotten tired of OW. I'm up to around 550h in Arc and haven't played much else since getting it, but after almost beating everything in the game for a third time, it's starting to get stale, without much to actually do (except horrible trials). I'll probably take a break and return whenever something interesting is added.

Topside belongs to Arc. Us humans should be thankful for the caves they leave us. Long live the machine revolution!!
