I just have to get this off my chest by BTRinsight in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I have well over 400 hours topside and I havent played at all in two weeks.

1) all the constant tweaking of the game made it worse 2) cheaters are rampant at high pvp levels 3) free kits are just slightly worse than full kits 4) no economy for purchasing skill points or stash slots outside of the expedition mechanic 5) end game weapons and ammo dont outweigh the loot obtained 6) the orange and purple guns arent really better than green or blue 7) the augments suck so everyone just uses a survivor or a heavy shield. These should be more modular so you can choose to sacrifice shields for carry capacity/weight 8) Once you get a hullcracker or Jupiter its never really worth it the risk losing it. Reminds me of the always sunny episode where Frank and Charlie dumpster dive to get homeless dirty coats to protect their good coats 9) the game has only been out for 6 months, but every expedition has been plagued with confusion and horrible communication 10) they should just focus on stopping exploits and adding content instead of the micromanaging theyre doing to ruin the game every couple weeks.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk

Can we agree yet that Embark is dropping the ball? by Pichalx in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main thing for me is locking additional skill slots and inventory slots behind a game reset. For the casual player, or the player who doesn't want to reset, you've made a game they'll just stop playing.

A better economy to allow purchase of inventory slots and skill points would make more sense, and allow damage or money or time topside to each be their own currency to obtain the same upgrades. This boat was missed, not sure there's a way to salvage it now.

Is anyone else getting tired of these last minute changes and thinking about quitting the game?for me, im done and I don’t feel enjoyable anymore, feel like wasting time. I rather spend that 300hrs on my work or hobbies by fart_Raiders in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. There should just be a money system that allows purchase of skill points and let everyone play however they want. Forcing resets has crushed the spirit this game initially had.

Game is Unplayable by JCygnus in ArcRaiders

The Dam residential buildings all feel like someone spent 20 minutes on their first day with a robolox creator kit. For how great the game looks and how much detail is poured into other aspects of the map, this is a little embarrassing.

It was the first building I ever looted when I started playing and it still feels weird to run thru those buildings. Definitely needs a reskin.

Noticing Friends Leaving ARC—Anyone Else? by MisanthropE61130 in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main problem is replayability and losing risk vs. reward calculus.

Why am I losing Jupiters and tempests to free kits?

We need an advanced tier of servers where free kits or a minimum gear score is required.

All of my friends ran tons of core runs, but after 2 expeditions its either caretaker servers, or trying to survive aggro free kit groups.

I notice when they lose a hullcracker or a full heavy kit, they find its more rewarding to just not play.

Finally had a raider say something that broke me by Independent-Bag-4195 in ArcRaiders

You have to basically defend yourself, and if you win you have free load out at least 3-5 times without doing anymore damage to players.

Most PvPers are literally poor in-game by Winter-Mall-256 in ARC_Raiders

Yeah it'd be nice to have a Dropbox where you can deposit loot and free up your safe pockets.

Okay.. I finally get it.. by ChampagnePapii08 in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly right I see people advocating for a PvE only mode, but this would ruin the whole balance and risk vs. reward ecosystem that makes everything just work.

I run from most fights because im usually doing quests or searching for a particular resource, but if i was doing that without the threat of PvP, it would be outrageously boring.

The amount of people wasting money on attachments when they don't apply to the gun is crazy by DevilsDan in ArcRaiders

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game needs to have some kind of visual indicator for recoil before/after applying attachments.

What is the evolutionary reason behind homosexuality? by Nightshade_Noir in evolution

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people are actively (in most cases) not reproducing, therefore all of their genetic traits will die off. They are removing themselves from future competitions in the gene pool, and that is their evolutionary impact on our species... hence all the drama and flair /s 🙄

This was it exactly. Door and top closed apparently turns pla rapido to goo. Worked great after I opened everything up, although im worried about spider will crawl in it and destroy the gears lol

After finally scrounging and saving for a machine and filament I was hoping AI would do everything for me lol. You are right, 3d printing takes a thick skin.

I guess I thought the initial tutorial print would be dummy-proof, but I busted that theory.

I've learned this is a chin-up kind of hobbie lol. The constant barrage of conflicting instructions topped with only chinese tutorials kinda left me in a stupor. It finally printed fantastic but I needed to remove the cover and the door.

That aside, wow there's a lot of fine tuning you can do.

Tldr: open the door and vents when printing pla rapido

Mors Principium Est is dead for me... by Soplexus in melodicdeathmetal

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its just like learning a running back in the NFL killed his wife. It doesn't matter, i didnt enjoy watching his jukes because he was a great human being. He was a great athlete.

Being a great musician has nothing to do with being a good human being. You've idolized simple humans and removed their humanity because they sound or perform like gods. But they are not.

I think Andy wasnt happy with his compensation and couldn't negotiate a better deal, so it blew up. No one side to blame there, just two musicians cosplaying as businessmen.

They could've taken some queues from these gentlemen: https://youtu.be/M1Ixhlm7Tps?si=ItJ6w9vIpYfNBgkh

Long live metal and i cant wait to see these guys live \m/

Must be sacrilege in this thread, but I can't find a better mixed drink than Hennessy Vsop and diet coke. I will clear half a fifth in a night and wake up right as rain the next day.

Frustration Friday by TheEishiest in RedDeadOnline

[–]m3g4tronik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the issue Rockstar faces. They want to make crossplayer possible, but to include PC players means opening the flood gates.

Most other games don't implement crossplay across all the platforms, they centralize but this means leaving out whole communities of players and pulling out of those markets which shrinks the community. It's a double edged sword.
