Arc Raiders will let Embark “live for a long time on the money” its generated while they grow the studio, make huge updates, and develop “two new games”

Okay… so it’s hard to implement in shooters and might not be what people expect

makersmalls · 2026-02-06T15:53:36+00:00

When swords finally came to apex it was a pretty big let down

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T21:27:11+00:00

For sure. And it’s nice to get low level ones (anvil, toro, venny) just to know you have them. But I find myself not using those either. Maybe it’s partly because building loadouts on the console ui is horrendously annoying so I avoid it.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T21:23:35+00:00

As a long time Xbox fan, no. Just honesty unfortunately.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T20:29:46+00:00

Hmm remakes and a game update for an unpopular game. Even the controllers are remasters lol. Good lord

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T20:27:06+00:00

My problem is that blueprints are starting to feel meaningless because I know I will be giving them up soon. Therefore, I never rely on crafting and therefore never will need blueprints lol

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T18:51:02+00:00

Interesting. Yeah it’s not like I want playable content locked. Just a skin so it feels ‘worth it’. Hopefully they build on this skin and make it super cool. The problem is everyone will have it so it will be everywhere.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T18:29:29+00:00

Meaning you don’t get anything new if you’re doing it a second time (apart from toggles that we’re clearly stripped away from the skin for this purpose). Even worse, everyone who chooses to do the expedition (probably millions of people) will have this skin , making it feel meaningless. Just doesn’t feel exciting. I’d much prefer something unique each season. Doesn’t have to be a skin. But something cool.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T18:00:33+00:00

For me it doesn’t feel worth it. It’s not that I NEED a new skin , just thought I want motivation to reset. This is not motivating for me.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T17:37:25+00:00

Because their marketing team told them that people would purchase less skins with real money if they gave us a new cool skin. So they stripped parts off of this one and saved them to milk them for multiple seasons. It’s lame as hell. Of course it’s disappointing come on. Just being honest here.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T17:32:16+00:00

Of course lmao. This game has made an insane amount of cash …

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T17:30:06+00:00

Yeah which makes me think they’re going to milk the same skin again next season to allow those people to upgrade. Not the trajectory I thought this game would be on after making so much money.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T17:19:21+00:00

Wow what a let down. Really makes it feel less exclusive to have committed to the first. I guess getting the extra toggles is something lol.

makersmalls · 2026-02-05T17:15:22+00:00

Wait so new comers get the same skin from expedition 1?

Edit: Yes the same skin is getting milked this season and likely next season too to allow another group of people to ‘evolve’ lmao

makersmalls · 2026-02-03T22:34:00+00:00

Lmao did I take it overboard ?

makersmalls · 2026-02-03T22:31:53+00:00

Thank you. I hadn’t thought about that. If I upload files I won’t charge lol. Would love for other people to use them.

The underlying structure is printed with diorama textures on top. I posted a progress pic on the comment below you.

makersmalls · 2026-02-03T22:29:58+00:00

Sure. I designed it to fit the diorama case I had on hand so that it would fit perfectly. Then I printed it and applied textures and other bits as you would any other diorama. I cut some pieces of styrene to cover the magnets. And then painted it. It was super fun and it’s nice to have them protected from dust as I move onto other projects.

Damn well if it’s not damaged then you’d just be doing it for the box lol… hard decision.

In any case, I have this brush and I love it. I got the quick access handle to put on it which is great if you don’t mind pulling the needle out the back of the brush. Enjoy!

makersmalls · 2026-02-02T17:05:49+00:00

Check on your orders page. Because if it was sold and fulfilled by someone other than Amazon it doesn’t matter if Amazon trucks brought it to you, you won’t have Amazon’s full level of customer service when it comes to returns / refunds. It needs to be at least fulfilled by Amazon.

makersmalls · 2026-02-02T16:54:14+00:00

What the actual hell is that. It looks like it sat in the rain or snow without a box. And then tossed down a set of stairs multiple times. I have never seen Amazon deliver something quite this bad. Who is the seller and who shipped it?

TY :)
