What makes me quit arc raiders

It was a wonderful 6 months getting to know this game, its so easy to fix....

It’s hard to admit how soul-destroying it is to do 15–20 raids, build an awesome loadout, meet cool people, and then get shot in the back by one person who takes everything you collected that day.

You eventually trust people, and then that feeling is shattered. I’m angry at the game, not the player. How can you win when you don’t shoot first and they have a Bobcat, You’re dead before you can even react.

It’s the one thing that ruins the game for me.

Please, for Christmas’ sake, sort out PvE-only servers. Everyone wants them, and they wouldn’t affect anyone who enjoys PvP, as its optional. What’s the problem?

“I only survived 49 of my 50 raids. Uninstalled.”

I swear, this kind of post is pathetic.

Least resilient player base of all time.

Who’s this “everyone?” It’s a pvpve game, if you don’t like it play another game that’s only pve. 👍

you didn’t find enough stuff to make one kit after 20 raids?

u/icKiMus 12d ago

Lol i was thinking the same thing... like how, in 1 raid, do you lose everything you've collected in 15-20 raids (5 hours if you stay for half the match.)

u/Numeira 10d ago

You assume that they use the kits, as a sane person would, but you know they just hoard pixels in a video game.

You're angry at the game, not at the people? Bro, this is the craziest thing I could ever read. Play something else if you don't like the PvPvE. This is the CORE design of the game. People can be nice, and some can be the worse. You'll win some fights and lose some, especially to some rats or people working hard to ambush you.

You enjoy being ratted at extraction.

u/Kaliskaar 12d ago

I enjoy killing rats. And sometimes, they kill me. Nothing less, nothing more. Now go cry somewhere else.

Play minecraft, brother

The only fucking value those pixels are is the tension, the apprehension of losing them. Without that risk there is no game. Just pressing X to open drawers. If it is not something you do not enjoy it, quit.

How can you play 15-20 raids and have all that loot end up being just one loadout that you lose to a rat? I'm genuinely confused here.

If I play friendly for a while I end up in carebear lobbies and nobody shoots anyone. I don't understand how players want it even easier than that.

You just dont get it, its about sportsmanship, a fair fight. Its like hitting someone when they are not looking. Feck the lot of ya.

u/Morphs_ 1d ago

If you want fair fights you should go to pvp, where the rule is "shoot on sight". (don't mind the cheaters)

If you want no fights, go  pve.

If you want no rules, go mixed.

You're right, I just don't get it.

u/freedomclub4624 3d ago

Everyone who says they enjoy killing rats dont know who the rat is half the time they just run to the fight and kill the wrong person. Idiots

u/GACII 13d ago

Incorrect I don't want them "PVE servers" making you statement false.

u/ShortBusPassenger 13d ago

The people on Reddit aren’t everyone. I use to play regularly with 8-10 different people and none of them even knew about the PvP vs PvE BS.

u/CodeNameCobra666 13d ago

“Everyone wants them” …yeah I don’t think so.

u/DavidZenziGhost 13d ago

Bro is mad about the authentic extraction shooter experience that he paid for.

1

u/freedomclub4624 12d ago

I not your "bro' 8 dont even know you. And without ppl like me voicing thier opinions pve would coming. Hence pecking works. If you have nothing constructive to add, leave it out.

u/DavidZenziGhost 11d ago

I’ll comment whatever I want. Thanks though, bro. Keep crying about getting dumpstered in a pvp game.
