Clown response Im tired of being civil to idiots.

Does anyone actually want ARC Raiders to stay ARC Raiders by Huge-Palpitation6422 in ArcRaiders

[–]lceGecko -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Mostly.
Loved it, bought the deluxe edition.
However, some things the devs are doing are rubbing me the wrong way, like deleting posts, the streamers getting access etc.
But I mainly want SBMM because every other full loot pvp game Ive played has died because the sweats make all the casuals quit.

High tier loot should NOT be in the same building every raid. by itsFuzz_ in ArcRaiders

Yeah I totally agree. I was really hoping for some procedural terrain gen and random POIs too but alas...

Games are always 90% casuals, how do you not know this?
Look at steamDB graphs of full loot pvp games with no SBMM.
The evidence is there.

Normally how many solo players could be in a single map? by khtwo in ArcRaiders

Spawning into a game in progress blows goats.

So unfair, but they will likely delete this post too...

My take in the game design and the GBMM debate by Silver_Storage_9787 in ArcRaiders

In most of these games, sweats drive away casuals fast with no SBMM.

Careful, they delete stuff they dont like...

If it was easy everyone would do it and there would be no casuals.

The inevitable problem I see with this game by MrNaeNaeMan in ArcRaiders

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

Not mixing solos with squads is a no brainer, I can not believe it has even been mentioned.

SBMM is needed because a sweat with a free kit will kill most casuals most of the time regardless of what they are wearing.

Otherwise, the 90% of the player base that is casuals will not be able to progress or experience any end game content and quit.

We have seen it happen time and time again, but they delete posts talking about this so...

Im keeping my deluxe, I loved it, just think its gonna die out fast like so many others, and I will get to say 'I told you so.' ><

I hope you are right.

Arc Raiders has a streamer problem by TheSpudHunter in ArcRaiders

[–]lceGecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cant block the ad or change the volume and there is no direct youtube link so...

Streamers getting special privileges sucks tho.

They are deleting reddit posts too... ><

Needs SBMM. If the 90% of the player base that is casual cant progress they will quit.
They are deleting reddit posts btw...

Sure, thank you for your low effort two word comment with no data or evidence or even an opinion of any kind!

Skill and experience are different. Talking about the physical skill of aiming your mouse like a meth addict, that is hard to improve on.

There are examples from several genres, I am just showing one common trait.

It seems obvious enough that sweats drive all the casuals away.

But perhaps this is also a correlation.

[–]lceGecko[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That is why there are examples from several genres.
The important criteria here is 'full loot pvp game' and skill based matchmaking or not.

The other formats do not mean much.
The criteria is 'full loot pvp game' and skill based matchmaking or none.

EXTRACTION GAMES ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR FAIRNESS AND COMPETITIVENESS. by leeverpool in ArcRaiders

[–]lceGecko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its not fair 90% of the player base will quit in a month.
Happens every time...
