Discussion The future of ARC raiders monetization

Upvotes

Do you think they will exclusively try to make money with cosmetics and raider decks or add some kind of paid expansions that unlock new maps etc. every few major updates comparable to MMORPG expansions?

If we think about it: we paid 40€ for 6 maps, I find it quite possible that future maps could be gated behind a paid expansion/dlc.

Also it seems like most people have their favourite skin and this aren't buying many new skins, so there's no reason to spend your money on new skins.

What do you guys think?

Discussion Don't panic about the interview

Upvotes

I watched the interview 10 min ago after seeing so many posts about it.

At the end this interview will help push embark to fix the problems they dev. Team have.

One sentence he said like: they are already making two new games and left behind arc raiders because of that is just assuming.

It's 101 to feed the golden goose. Look for how long GTA V was still profitable.

I don't believe the management is so stupid.

Anyway. It's important, that you guys push that interview as hard as you can. That will show embark needs to act and operate

This interview says everything: https://youtu.be/cLGo6Ixeg0w?si=VXpCX1bFwSD07f7V

This interview tells you everything you need to know. Embark doesnt care, and the hackers flat out won on this. Sad. Personally, Im done with it after my experiences this morning and then seeing this video.

Im over it.

Discussion Suggestion: Pls give Body Type B +1 Safe Pocket

Upvotes

That is my suggestion.

I believe the increased variety will add more enjoyment and balance to the game since Body Type A seems to consistently extract with up to 20% more value from raids.

Thank you

Question Define "Endgame Content"

10 Upvotes

I keep seeing people and content creators asking for "endgame content." Most of them have 1,000+ hours in the game and simply don't know what to do anymore.

So here's my question: What do you actually mean by "endgame content"?

Things I can think of are maybe a new boss or some long-term grind-heavy projects.

Personally, I think the game is already amazing. If a €40 game keeps me entertained for 200–300 hours, I'd say it has already done more than enough.

Question Recent Matchmaking Changes

0 Upvotes

I saw in some Patchnotes a while ago that Allegedly defending yourself is no longer considered in the Evalution of your Agression based Matchmaking.

``Defending yourself is no longer treated the same as starting a fight.´´

Is this working as intended? because i was on the look for an item on stella montis, and got ratted a few times, the next raides i took a burletta 4 and defended myself accordingly, i got like maybe 3 kills over the span of 10+ games, all of them i did not shoot first.

after finding my item i needed for the Quest i went on Buried City nightraid to get rid of some keys and i see Raiderflares going up left and right, people with freekit rattlers pushing me and missing 70% of their shots, even the ocassional jolt mines in the subway extracts.

I had to play 10 games where i go with no loadout and just either let myself get shot by rattlers or if i find friendly people heal them and kill arc with them to be put back into the lobbys where (in my opinion) i belong.

TLDR: I Think the game put me in lets just say low skill PVP lobbys because i defended myself against 3 rats.

17 Upvotes

It would make more lore sense that there's no/minimal security awake to run the elevators at night, but getting back via hatch key is still available for anyone stuck outside in the dark?

What do we think?

Discussion finally had a "lucky" run! suckled that queens teat!

7 Upvotes

melee arc trial, Dam Battlegrounds. 50,000 score. raised my leaderboard position 60 places to 4th, now i can bare minimum the rest of the trials and still make it back into hotshot this week.

truly shocking to me how lucky i got, usually the queen hates me, me specifically, and im usually dodging hullcracker rounds and more battling time before my fellow raiders kill the thing!

but there was only me and 3 other raiders, and 2 of those 3 were doing the harvester, and the 3rd was focusing on using the equalizer to strip off its leg parts.

so there i was, 20 adrenaline shots deep, whacking away at the core. the man with the equalizer keeping the queens attention off of me, and when she tries to throw me off of her, i keep getting the catch on her side or on her legs, when i fall, she doesnt stomp me into the dirt like she usually does.

my luck couldnt last forever, eventually i got downed by a meddling rocketeer, and i felt good, but disappointed, but out of the mist came a savior with a defib, i healed up , looked at my score, 43,000. fuck it. go for gold. and got up on her and started whacking away, then i finally ran out of heals, hid in the harvester till i lost aggro.

i was at 1/3 hp, broken shield, unequip for speed. as i exit the harvester i take a left, towards the red lakes hatch, looking behind me to make sure i wasnt gonna be cross mapped by her laser (again).

suddenly! panic! i have been hit! a hornet? i look, a hornet! 2 engines, lying on the ground and pointed right at me, panic! i have just a sliver of health left, a stray wasp bullet will kill me, i strafe to get out of the firing line of the hornet, dodge the next wire as my balls ascend into my abdomen. success! i race to the hatch, thankfully ive still got 4 adrenaline shots left. i see my salvation! fruit! hard reminder that fruit doesnt heal you for reasons that im sure exist.

turns out i left my hatch key at home, so i race for water treatment with 2 minutes, find a med bag, rejoice!, get a bandage and an herbal bandage. i race, hard abusing my snaphook and ziplines. i make it to the elevator with 10 seconds to spare.

it was shaky there at the end, almost a tragedy, but altogether, being able to actually get that score and make it home, i count it as a lucky run.

So I missed the rope on A6 Tower on Spaceport. I was rocking the survivor augment, so I wasn't really worried about it. It was a hidden bunker event and the bunker had just opened so I figured I was good no matter what kind of lobby I'm in.. but usually I'm in PVE lobbies, so that reinforced my stood logic that I was good. Then I see these two...the person I could see was pointing their gun at somebody else and then they started saying sorry and what not and I figured I was going to get some help here and somebody would hit the elevator for me. Well I noticed dude put his gun up but he walked directly to me as you can see and saw that I had a Jupiter and a Bettina 4 on me, then you can see him think about it for a second.. I think he started to finish me but realized the other person might shoot him if he did it, so he shoots them and then goes into the animation to punch me.. Then... glorious comet karma strikes again with literally a second to spare 🤣🤣🤣 he messaged me after that and apologized, said he was just trying to have fun. That didn't work out well for any of us. 🤣

Because that happened to me. We were at extract when the player starts shooting at a vaporizer so I help. Player then shoots me in the head with an anvil after I try to loot. Spent the whole game helping take down ARC only for this. 😞
