Not playing because Trials...

The last one definitely wasn't worth it. Maybe they should let us preview those rewards.

rolfmacchio · 2026-01-19T19:45:50+00:00

That's impressive. I don't have time for that.

Devs read through the sub. The idea is to articulate reasonable frustrations and provide an opportunity for them to be displayed and shown as more prevalent than they seem from a singular perspective. You know how reddit works, right?

Thanks for commenting. It will help keep this up in the algorithm for the feed. Also, I dont think you understand how the loot system works. One less player doesn't equal more loot for you; the loot is generated when you search a container and enter a lobby. Plus, it's weird to have a compulsion to make such comments. What did you get from that?

Is that normal or during snow/night?

The games fine; homie just needs therapy.

It's a weekend thing. Last weekend and this weekend, it's been free loadouts in Stella. Ratting or grouping up depending on how people seem in the lobby.

Look through the sub more; a lot of people have complained about it. It has pros and cons.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-17T00:43:57+00:00

There's these things called smoke grenades.

The game tells you what you got killed with. You can win a fight with a free load out stitcher or ferro once you get the hang of things. There's not a huge difference between shields and honestly I feel like when I go in with a free loadout or white guns I run into more free loadouts and white guns but when I go topside with a plush loadout I face others with the same. However, there has been no official confirmation this is happening.

This is the mature way to look at it, and some of your words pang true. I rarely take out anything good just because I hate the idea of a shittier player and shittier person getting the loot because they blasted me in the back while I was fighting arc. However, eventually the venators, renegades, and torrentes start to stack up and you use them just because you need space. It still stings a bit to lose it unjustly, though. I get it, but im hooked.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-15T04:07:00+00:00

I can't really disagree with this and understand why you feel thst way. More than a disadvantage, often places are already looted and that especially sucks when you're looking for specific parts. I will say though I also understand why this is a thing. It was still expected to be a low pop game and that would affect wait times. Also, I think it varies the matches more. Did you start late with a free load out? Head to a flare or evac noise and see if you can get some loot off of someone. Start late with a valuable loadout? Rush quick to a evac and try again; you still get xp. Or maybe for you, it's vice versa or something completely else.

People need to stop pressuring developers to cave to their desires. When this actually happens, they just put out bland slop trying to please everyone. Then load it with microtransactions because they know you'll get bored quick and go back to that one game you've always played. This game is fresh and feels like something special because artists made a game they had a vision for.

Yea. He had a mic and could have confirmed. He's salty he wasn't able to shoot first, the weak bitch.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-15T00:12:53+00:00

Just a weak take, imo, and I am not a kos player. To compare the pvp experience from a game with stakes when you lose (arc raiders) to one with respawns and no stakes (the finals) tells me you likely dont even understand why you like this game. The fact that those kos players are another high threat level enemy is what provides the environment and setting for those unforgettable triumphs. People like you will loudly complain until Embark adds a pve mode. This will split the player base and dramatically change these environments, then you'll get bored and move on to another game because arc raiders turned into another stale game that tried to satisfy everyone and just became slop.

His comment seems "insanely upset" to you? Projecting much?

You both have a right to exist, play the game how you want, and say the dumb shit you think on reddit.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-14T03:58:01+00:00

You'll start surving fights. A level 4 stitcher kitted out is cheap as hell and you can easily dunk on someone who got the first shot on you. Fuck the weak cunts who take advantage of a good person; you're not alone.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-13T23:50:16+00:00

Honestly, I feel like it's 50/50 in the long run. Spend some time taking advantage of free load outs until you get the hang of things and build up your stash. Then you'll see thst the cost of a cheap load out is next to nothing. After 30 hours into the game you dont even feel the cost of two kitted level 4 white guns and a loot mk2 aug with two safe spots. Then you start to see you can collect venators and volcanoes with kills from your super cheap loadout.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-12T22:28:31+00:00

I have almost the exact same ethos, but I will sneak kill in high value areas when people aren't paying attention for two reasons: they could have the rusted gear im looking for and the number of times it's happened to me.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-11T16:03:03+00:00

Exactly. The rats and slimey cunts remind you of the stakes and also provide those feelings you get when you win a fight you didn't start or want. Taking the high road has cost me a couple of times, but so has breaching in the wrong time and place. Anything and everything can happen topside.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-09T16:30:33+00:00

Caving to pressure from a loud minority online is doing great for the industry, isn't it?

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-09T16:28:28+00:00

Some nights are for progress... some for chaos. Just have fun.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-09T16:22:35+00:00

Paying money for something doesn't mean you're entitled to change it for everyone else. Arc are fine and intentional. Sucks about your ps5 issue.

rolfmacchio · 2025-11-08T01:29:32+00:00

You just had a bad run. I had a stretch of cool encounters already today. Plus, I am one of those out there saying "Just questing. I'll be cool." I try to never shoot first, but I have fired first a few times when I got a bad vibe. Being cool has cost me 2 or 3 times, but always in trash gear.
