nah this gay shit sucks asshole

>>725050508
god i wanna punch this faggot so much

no blueprints and not the juiciest raid but it's honest work
game is amazing apart from a few minor issues with the UI/out of raid experience, and that the maps feel a little player-dense relative to their size
also there should be somesort of lootable or craftable gadget that lets you scan for knocked out raiders so you can't grief when you go down and try to sneak off and disapear

>>725050286 (OP)
Someone suggested this to me a few days ago, is it another flavor of the month twitchslop game or is it actually fun?

>>725051170
>is it another flavor of the month twitchslop game
Just look at it.

>>725051170
fomo twitchslop, will die in a month or two, if thats enough gametime for you then go ahead

A 40 dollar game giving you hundreds of hours is a bad thing now? Not every game needs to be a forever game. Your fat ass spends 50 dollars ubering mcdonalds every day for ten minutes of gluttony and you hesitate to spend 40 bucks for something that will last hundreds of hours? GTFO with that shit cuh.

>GTFO with that shit cuh.
Hang zoomers from trees

>>725051663
It is literally a live service forever game. The loot is meaningless because there are no stakes. You will play this for a month and realize there is no point to anything you are doing because the game is designed for you to never feel the stakes and be discouraged when losing. Eventually you will grow tired of pretending to be nice to Internet strangers and then realize there's no point in shooting them either. Then you will quit the game because it has zero staying power.

>>725050804
personally I did a 360 on the guy and find him funny now. dudes like him are a diamond dozen but something about him is different

>>725052459
nta but speak for yourself faggot, the game is not for you and you 100% don't have friends to play the game with and that's why you're so miserable, just play a genre more fit for your depressing self, me and my friends have been no-lifing this shit every day after work for the past week

zero chance it will be dead, check playercounts

what is your argument?

>>725050286 (OP)
Everyone is realising it's woke slop with no real gameplay depth or high end content.

>>725052623
Casual games die quickly because they beg players that wouldn't normally be interested in them to play them by design. The very things Arc Raiders removed or dumbed down from the extraction formula are the very things that are appealing about it in the first place. You are feeling FOMO right now but you said it yourself: by the time you can buy it, the game will already be dead. If you were interested in extraction shooters you already have good options but you aren't actually interested in extraction shooters. You are interested in feeling like you are part of the zeitgeist. If it will be dead by the time you can buy in, then it was never worth buying at all.

>>725050286 (OP)

>>725052856
300k playercount on a weekday and all the big streamers are still playing the shit out of it
>YEAH BUT EVENTUALLY THEY WILL STOP PLAYING
yes no shit, no game can forever hold the attention span of someone who put in dozens if not hundreds of hours

>>725052723
Then you're not enjoying the game, you're enjoying hanging out with your friends you colossal retard.
>>725052832
You won't play this game for hundreds of hours. You will stop around 80 because you will realize the lack of stakes makes everything you do in the game pointless.
>>725052841
Everything you do in Arc Raiders is pointless within the context of the game. The PvPvE design they have doesn't mesh properly and once you stop letting your emotions control you, you will realize that the lack of stakes makes it a pointless and unenjoyable video game.

>>725053135
Cope.
The game is not bad in gameplay but it has no high end content and the ARC robots are just meh after killing them a few times.
ARC has no real hook that will keep players playing long term.

>>725053135
Tarkov and Hunt both prove you wrong, retard. You FOMO bought a game because everyone else was doing it and are now trying to rationalize it after the fact. Game is dead in a year just like The Finals.

>>725052623
It might actually hold out for a while if the devs deliver on their roadmap.

>>725053442
>Cope.
Cope? Cope what? The numbers are on my side, not yours. You're the one that is delusional. The hook is that its a fun game to PLAY. Wow imagine that. A game being played because it is fun. Not everything NEEDS to have carrot on the stick to keep playing. How do you think games used to work in the past?
>>725053561

Kek
>Finals: 12k players
>Hunt: 17k players
If the finals is "dead" so is the Hunt. You dumb fuck. According to you, all Arc has to do is maintain 17k players and it won't be dead. Tarkov probably has 50k players too.

>>725053561
nobody but RMT bugmen plays tarkov nigga tf you talking about
and hunt has like 20k players LOL

>>725053779
You are totally deluded. See you in 2 weeks when you are content starved. ARC is no Tarkov.

>>725053923
kekerooooo
had to back down from hunt after seeing its own poor numbers, according to you, and can only cling to tarkov and since its not on steam you can imagine all sorts of numbers for it.
a gorillion players on its own launcher. trust me!

>>725053923
tarkov is not a game
tarkov is a russian grift so a fat retard can make his dream game where he literally just copies a decades old IP in STALKER

>>725053816
Cope. Tarkov is also about to hit Steam.

>>725054583
there is literally not one person who still cares about tarkov in 2025

>>725054123
The Hunt has never been successful.
In it's prime Tarkov was pulling huge numbers and it isn't even on Steam.
It's coming to Steam soon with the singleplayer mode.

>>725054746
>In it's prime Tarkov was pulling huge numbers
Too bad we can't verify that info because that rat russian grifter didn't want to pay steam tax until he had milked every last possible coin from his retard fanbase before moving to steam.

This brown retard is STILL seething over the game??

>>725053561
I'm playing it with my younger brother and his friend retard.
We already got our moneys worth, no matter if it only lasts another 2 months or two years.

It is really good?
It is playable solo?

>>725057003
yes

>>725052459
>mfw I used to play cs1.6 every day after school for years simply because it was fun
What happened to just playing because its fun, why is fun now tied to progression and 'chase'?

>>725057670
>What happened to just playing because its fun, why is fun now tied to progression and 'chase'?
Because that is how they got kids hooked to gacha and mtx battlepasses.

>>725052459
>there are no stakes
Anon there are bosses roaming the maps and the endgame is defeating them with three or more guys. Die to those bosses with all your suped up gear and it's all gone. Unless you literally grind a hundred hours into it none of the good enough gear for killing bosses are attainable save for a lucky loot drop.

>>725055223
It's not about you though, narcissistic retard.

>>725052459
>casual game
>half the enemy roster can two shot you from a distance
>other half can close the distance in seconds
And no I'm not including rocketeers.

>>725057670
Because the average gamer buys 1-3 games per year and you need one of those games to both be YOUR game and to have enough of a content drip to keep them playing and spending money on MTX to sustain your business. Otherwise they will go back to whatever they were playing before and you won't be able to maintain the game without enough whales being hooked. Economics doesn't give a shit about your 1.6 nostalgia. Different market. Different era. Different consumer psychology. Cope.

>>725057003
I think its really good, the pvp and pve both feel very good and the game looks and runs really well. We're already getting more robots to shoot this month too so I'm sure the pve will stay fresh as they add more and more.

The game is super solo friendly, maybe to solo friendly. In 3 mans or duos other players are almost always shoot on sight.
Solos though people are almost always friendly, especially on night maps to the point I haven't even seen pvp on night maps. It's probably because on night maps theres more arc and theres more stronger arc, and because its night if you see another players its most likely because you're close and if you're close you can talk to each other in prox chat.
People are so friendly in solos its normal to see a team of 5 or more people hanging out working together or just casually loot next to each other. Solo feels way more like a pve game.
>>725057670
Zoomers brains are fried and if they aren't on a progression treadmill drip feeding them dopamine like a rat in a skinner box then they can't understand the appeal of playing a game for the sake of playing it.

Hypocrytic retard.

>>725058203
And what is the point of the PvP element then? You are playing a PvE game with the PvP flag flipped to enabled but there's no point in doing the PvP because to get anywhere you need to play cooperatively. It's retarded and you will soon realize it.

Literally the dumbest design for an extraction shooter.

Imagine paying $40 to play on 3 tick servers. The game is running on Runescape tier servers.

cool reddit post

>>725060346
no refunds dumb cunt

>>725060246
This explains so much. 90% of fights are dumping your entire mag into a guy and then waiting a second to see if they are going to drop dead or not. Feels like shit

>>725060241
Because you're retarded and confuse having fun with your friends with the game being good. You have no ability to parse your own emotions or critically think about anything so you just assume that because you are having fun with your friends that it's the game which is good and not the friendships. You attach the emotions you have towards your friends to the game because you are a subhuman ape incapable of stepping outside of his own myopia to objectively appraise anything in his life. There is little difference between you and a beast of the land.

>>725050286 (OP)
For being a streamlined extraction shooter, they sure dropped the ball fucking hard on inventory management. Such a tedious pain in the ass.

>>725061068
>just sell 90% of the shit you pick up
You don't know when some random trash item is going to be necessary for a quest or not, and it's tedious to check all the time. Beyond that, there's so many ways they could make the inventory system less like busywork--like, having a quick-sell button (with a way to filter the types of items you want to sell) or a way to create loadouts/instantly top off stacks of items in your loadout so you don't need to tediously drag items over to restock/set up after every fucking raid. These are all things plenty of other games do. One particular gripe I have is that clicking on the quick-use slots in your inventory will bring up your quick use items, but as soon as you drag something over, it instantly switches off of your quick use items, which is fucking annoying. There simply wasn't much thought put into the inventory system beyond the absolute basics.

>>725060860
And you're a retard for thinking that you disliking a game makes it bad.

>>725061612
>You don't know when some random trash item is going to be necessary for a quest or not, and it's tedious to check all the time.
I felt the same but I've realized there really isn't anything you can't quickly get for quests or upgrades to workshops aside from the level 3 high lever arc stuff

All the blues etc you really don't need to worry about holding onto unless there is a specific blueprint you know you like to build a lot, and you quickly remember what those items are.

It really isn't that bad. Jumping between the shops and workshop and inventory trying to get setup is shit though I agree. I wish you could craft directly in your inventory somehow

>All the blues etc you really don't need to worry about holding onto unless there is a specific blueprint you know you like to build a lot, and you quickly remember what those items are.
Fair enough, but the other part of the problem is that everybody has their own mindset with regards to inventory management/hoarding items, so even if you've got a handle on it yourself, when playing with friends, you still end up waiting all the time while they set up their own inventory and try to figure out what to keep/not keep. That'll get better as time goes on, but still, I think it could have been a lot better (especially since this game was targeting a more casual audience).

should be pretty easy to disprove by the devs, all I got so far is some streamer saying "my father works at embark and told me it's not true"

>>725051170
To me it makes me feel the same as the finals. Extremely good game held back by a few retarded design decisions. For the finals it’s the OPness of lights. For arc raiders it’s the fact that pvp is way too present because or the amount of players in a run. They should divide the amount of max players in a map by 3 or 4, and add more dangerous arc. Im not against pvp I like good duels, I just think it should be a one time thing at max, per run. Last night in solo I fought against 5 different players in the span of 8 minutes.

>>725065128
Is that what it is? Because I've had two game now where I could swear I got spawned on a map already going for a while. I ran to the first loot area and there was a dude already in there deep into looting it.

>>725065128
>Last night in solo I fought against 5 different players in the span of 8 minutes.
Ok, the next run you see no one. Don't act like you see 5 players all the time in your runs, it's completely randoms and this is what makes it so fun, you never know what will happen in your next run, this is what makes it highly addicting

>only webm itt is a cancer 3pp fight with massive desync

>>725061593

>I got spawned on a map already going for a while.
That's how it works for the first 15 minutes, when raiders die or extract new raiders will spawn in to replace them, its a retarded system.

No I never see no one.

>>725065309
>I got spawned on a map already going for a while
This is when you start looking for fights to kill the loot pinatas.

klean hates that nikita wont listen to his advice (former heckin marine btw) on how to make tarkov so now hes hitching his wagon to every tarkov competitor hoping something sticks

>>725061128
>biggest arc raiders paid shill
>just trust me bro

>>725065128
Well that's not been my experience at all. Solo play has been relatively chill in regards to pvp. Nothing even close to Tarkov or Rust. I think the arc being a genuine threat helps with that. Even then you have so many tools to escape a fight. If you really want to fuck up someone's day, stick a lure on someone then chuck a snitch core. Then just sit back and enjoy the Benny Hill ass chase.

>>725065807
Oh even worse, everyone spawns at the same time then what? everyone shoots the guy next to each other, right? wow so smart, great idea dumbfuck

>>725065808
klean is right tarkov moved in the wrong direction and has retarded balancing and game design

>>725065830
ofc, these are the people with contacts to embark, who else should say this? what a fucking retard you are

>>725065830
>some random reddit user
>just trust me bro

Why doesn't the guy with contacts just tell us the real tick rate? Other games do that right?

>>725065808
wasn't he shitting his pants and crying for them to remove inertia and didn't they reduce it by 80% or something with the last patch?

I justed tested the Arc Raiders server tick rate and found it to be 69hz. Trust me because I said so.

Is it worth buying to play for 5 hours untill the new zelda muso game comes out?

>>725066398
Yes, also kys tendie

>>725066029
Everyone already spawns at the start of the map you dumb fuck, then they get replaced up to the 15 minute mark. So your retarded cope makes zero sense in any way. It's impossible to get spawn camped if you spawn at the start of a map, it's very possible to get spawn camped if you spawn late.

>>725066291
He and every streamer that ever played the game. Which is weird considering he was always gung ho about making it less like COD and more "realistic and tactical"

>>725065972
nta but he's right, one of my few gripes with the game is how it feels very saturated with players relative to the map size
solos are generally p friendly which can be fun but that's not the point
i've played more tarkov raids where i never encountered another player than i have where i did
today even in arc raiders i spawned into one of the buildings on Dam and moved into the first room and within 20 seconds someone was breaching one of the doors into that room so he got iced
no reason for you to encounter another player within 1 minute of spawn, partially because neither of you has any fucking loot yet, so there's even less incentive to fight in a game where the value of loot and tough arc enemies already disincentives pvp compared to other extraction shooters
idk about a factor of 3 or 4 but at least halve the number of players on a map imo
i can count on probably one maybe two hands the number of times i've extracted alone at an extract as a solo, and lots of those times is me waiting for another person or two or three to extract who got there just before me
feels like you encounter players way more often in arc than other pvpve games because of the sheer number of players on each map

It's likely the tickrate is variable like most servers. So you can't really say it's X or Y without a bunch of internet autists "UM AKSHULLY"ing you. Whatever the tickrate is, it's currently not enough to feel good. That's what's important.
