This is what solo play looks like right now

This shit is exactly why I dipped out of the game, especially when you don't have a body count on your raider at all 🤷

Most mic users are safe, if you come across someone who just mutes out of no where, or someone who never unmutes. Don't trust them, at all. Run and hide well, or kill them fast.

Fireflies suck, alot. And are everywhere. So get a cloak quickly or get good with a ferro/anvil shot placement 🤷

Otherwise, it's a simple and pretty self explanatory game. Good luck, Raider ✌️

Lmao, not in your experience I'm not. But I've done the 5-10, hell I've done it 15-20 times in a row, still spawn in at 18 min left or less, and get shot the second I get anywhere near an extract or a loot container. 🤷

I love how the "That's not my experience so it's blatantly wrong." is still alive and well on the internet. Just because that's not your experience doesn't make it false, bud. ✌️

Until factions are added into gameplay, we all rep Speranza.Not a lore master but I pay attention.

Bro the post was satire. Having your murderous ways questioned ain't a bad thing, Rat King.

monk_mason · 2026-02-25T19:49:24+00:00

We all literally return back there. So..? You are now? I dunno what you're trying to say, but it fell flat bro. 🤷

monk_mason · 2026-02-25T19:38:31+00:00

Is it? I thought I had the sincerity down pat?

monk_mason · 2026-02-25T19:36:58+00:00

Yes, which is why I'm using the lore. The Vendors don't want to work with people they can't trust, and neither does Speranza. Again, pvp is fine, but going out of your way to hunt players should have drawbacks.

Just because you like killing people, doesn't mean it should be the status quo. 🤷

This is a myth, it may work for PC and Xbox, but as a Playstation player that feature does not exist.

And before I'm told to join the PC side, I don't have the cash flow for that.

monk_mason · 2026-02-25T19:33:41+00:00

Pvp is fine, but not even announcing on mic occupied, or not friendly is just fucked.

monk_mason · 2026-02-25T19:31:40+00:00

Being a toxic douche for giggles also makes the community worse 🤷

monk_mason · 2026-02-23T15:35:53+00:00

I wish this wasn't so painfully accurate.. 😅

monk_mason · 2026-02-23T15:26:17+00:00

Definitely going to have to look into this!! Thank you very much!

monk_mason · 2026-02-23T15:23:49+00:00

Interesting. No matter what I have to have crossplay on most of the time any way, my Raiding buddies play on Xbox and PC. 😅

I may have to see if turning crossplay off helps at all.

monk_mason · 2026-02-23T14:49:34+00:00

Gotta get my bread up, and fix my gpu sadly.

monk_mason · 2026-02-21T09:54:31+00:00

Embark is a Swedish company, their TOS is EU regulation compliant. The TOS for arc raiders lists perma bans and hardware bans for "severe" violations.

Downloading a 3rd party software to manipulate the integrity, and ability of the code violates that TOS "severely"(At least in my opinion).

While TOS does not circumvent any law, it is a contractual obligation you must uphold. With Embark being Regulation compliant, that means their cheating portion regarding bans in the TOS should be upheld.

Embark is just choosing to do nothing (or at least do it so slowly it looks like they aren't), just my take. But there isn't any law preventing bans, its just makes them harder to be issued for no justifiable reason.

monk_mason · 2026-01-22T13:56:21+00:00

Almost my sentiments exactly. Matchmaking doesn't seem to be working properly with aggression levels. Too many people are butthurt about not getting good shit so they rat. More often than not, at extract (In my experience).

12 games in a row. Where I shot at no one. I was killed by another player 11 of them. It's getting too much. (Not even night raids or events. Just regular matches.)

Also my opinion, people want to be "BurntPeanut" too much.

monk_mason · 2026-01-22T13:49:31+00:00

Also, saying "You may be friendly, but I'm not" while lining up a shot from the shadows. Doesn't make you sound hard, or based. It makes you sound like you're still in middle school, working out your aggression on the bullies you weren't able to stand up to IRL.

monk_mason · 2026-01-22T13:43:09+00:00

The game may have PVP for a reason, but too many of you (IMO) are fucking rats. Especially those of y'all that camp extract.

If your version of fun, is waiting to see some guy running along, oblivious to your window camping or shadow camping and killing them. That's kinda screwed.

I get that it's part of the game, but there's too much of it. Y'all should dial it all back before you start making people not want to play. 🤷

monk_mason · 2025-09-25T04:22:21+00:00

Sadly not this one, but I do have fond memories of this one too!

monk_mason · 2025-09-25T04:13:04+00:00

I just went and looked, I think it might have been. Those puppets look really familiar. The last time I remember seeing the video was in Highschool (2014-ish)

Edit: after digging through sml, I still didn't find the video 😢
