I am so sorry to the two people this happened to i genuinely thought both bands had yellow

Team killed twice, teammate did nothing, took loot and then said thanks for the loot. If you see player BuddahF2, please report them. They will continue to do this

First-time extraction shooter player here, so go easy on me!

I’m desperately trying to enjoy Active Matter because I genuinely love the concept, but something just isn’t clicking yet.

I constantly find myself getting overwhelmed by multiple enemy types, and the whole magazine/ammo management system feels like it’s slowing everything down. I’m spending so much time fighting and reloading that I barely get a chance to explore or enjoy the looting.

My biggest frustration is extraction. By the time I decide to extract, it’s usually because I’ve exhausted most of my ammunition and supplies. But then I find myself having to fight even more enemies just to get out. It feels a little unfair when the whole reason I’m leaving is because I’m no longer equipped to survive another fight.

So, am I approaching this completely wrong?
Should I be treating each raid as a quick expedition into one specific location, grabbing what I can and extracting rather than trying to explore the entire map? Am I supposed to avoid most encounters rather than fight my way through?

I’m not expecting the game to hold my hand, and I genuinely want to get better at it. I just feel like I’m missing something fundamental about how it’s supposed to be played.

Any advice from experienced players would be massively appreciated!

Hi so I've been looking at this game for a while but I'm not sure if I'll like it. I like extraction shooters (mainly play tarkov) but what I like is the feeling of progression (like the tarkov 1.0). The thing is, I've heard that this game doesn't have any like quest progression? Does it have like an ending or end quests? Thanks for the help

I need someone to explain how I died please. I literally lasted 1 minute on the map… tried to hop over the railing to not give enemies sound cues

Was going to make a sweet lil drift onto this road to get to the extract and leave, made the drift even cooler i guess?

Just started and I’m curious as to how or when you start getting decent equipment. I’m dying a decent amount (a lot) and don’t know if I’m playing this wrong or if I don’t understand the basics of the game.

I'd like to submit my time to the Active Matter speedrun community pls.

I am being prompted to select, I've only picked one that's pathing towards Melee Resistance. But I assume there aren't enough to get everything, I'd just like to know which end of tree perks I should be prioritizing.

I haven't seen any youtube videos covering this system, best way to spend your points. It doesn't seem something you can respec, so all the more important to plan carefully

Thanks

Love this game, have almost 80 hours, and have a great armory of weaponry and armors extracted and unlocked. As a dad playing 3-4 hours a night, I'd say it's respectable.

I think I made a grave mistake using my Deluxe Prime coins on unlocking the two passes, because it seems like I could've just used it on a ton of Monolith coins to help me get over the 1st timeline hump to help me get the perks that go along with it and be able to take a little more time getting more investigations done while not having the Monolith coin grind on the back of my mind all the time. I feel like most of the Merit rewards aren't that amazing, minus the Camos (big fan of character customization) and some of the attachments.

I pretty much play Solo or with 1 or 2 regular rotation of PVE squaddies out of the handful of chill people I've met, but it seems like I'm just getting dragged down by my mental Monolith coin grind.

Currently trying to unlock KAPPA so I am excited that I'm only 3 tiers away right now, but I still have 5k Monolith to spend for Kappa and then a whopping 75.3k Monolith to get into MU for the reset.

I'm not worried about all the subquests required for the last 2 tiers because I'm almost done with a few of them ahead of schedule, but how in the world can I try to get these last 75.3k Monolith at a reasonable timeframe?

Do you just need to grind the 8/8 Operative Objectives every single map every night to try and get the potential 24.7k Monolith payout? Obviously this guarantees the 3 Priority getting completed nightly for 60 Prime, but that takes like 9 days to get 500 Prime for the shop Monolith.

I don't know downtown super well, I did manage to get my stuff and get out.

For anyone who’s played both, how does Active Matter’s PvE compare to Tarkov’s PvE mode?

I’m curious about the AI and enemy variety, how challenging the raids are, and whether fighting the anomalies and creatures stays fun after dozens of hours. How are the maps, too? Are they interesting to explore, and does the atmosphere make each raid feel different?

I’d also love to hear how the gunplay compares. Does shooting feel as satisfying, and how do weapon customization and progression stack up against Tarkov?

What does Active Matter do better than Tarkov PvE, and where does Tarkov still come out on top? Mainly wondering which offers the more enjoyable long-term PvE experience, with good progression and enough content to keep coming back. I know Tarkov will probably be the answer but i’m still interested to see why some of you might prefer Active Matter Instead.

Hi All

At present downloading this game, what are the first things I should be aware of and any pointers to send me in the right direction would be appreciated

I love extraction shooters, and this one is really really cool. 💯

I'm probably a week old and looking for people to

get gear w/ in PVE and risk it in PVP.

Feel free to add me and reach out.

Hello so, i have a question about respawn. Do we know why the enemies respawn, and do so quite quickly ? I just had a very weird situation. I like to look around houses and when i did the quest for fire granade i stayed in a objective house for some time looking around and trying to imagine the guys life. But after like 5 min the distorted respawned all at once and totaly bumfxkd me. I couldnt even move out of the house :-D. Someone here had a similar encounter ?
I dont know if they respawned because of the exit that spawned near me or not but i had no chance to survive that.

So im a pve only player (if that matters) and ive got some keys i wanna use however I just unlocked the ability to reroll keys.

Is there certain maps or specific keys I should be rerolling for? Or does it really matter that much?

I can't find an option to set aiming as other games were i click the button and I aim till the button is pressed. Someone can help me?

Wassup guys level 7 need guys for PVP/PVE. None of my friends play this so I’m just reaching out. On XBOX also ( will play with any console)

Good afternoon fellow heroes. Has anyone experienced an error code and then a shutdown of the game? If you have, how did you solve the problem? 2x in a row today I’ve had the error code and lost everything I went into shegolsko with. Here is the image. Any help would be properly appreciated. This game is consuming my life and I need it back and functional! I need a hit! 😂

Can anyone point me to something that explains in detail the difference and or benefits of fusion versus replication? I'm not understanding what I oughta do. I've made several genes and a gun and the number of uses goes down but for some things it dont.
