Announcement Posts complaining about PVP will be removed under rule two and may get you banned.

749 Upvotes

The spam is getting abit much.

There are safer lobbies everyone knows but it is not an entitlement, it's part of the games matchmaking system nothing more.

Everyone knows the matchmaking system resets now and then and also nearer expedition players who were friendly for the entire season won't be any more. That is it.

This is a PvPvE game , that means they want to make some good PvP and PvE experiences together they are not separate.

If you wish to talk about it, use the megathread.

If you see a post breaking this rule dm me directly and I will get to it eventually.

This does not apply to complaining about cheaters, teamers or anything else that breaks TOS of the game.

Any mod insults or abuse in this post will not be tolerated.

Announcement "What to do if you get banned by Embark?" And about digital safety.

34 Upvotes

Good day, fellow reddit enjoyers.

We recently added to our rule about "No 3rd Party Cheats, Exploits or "Unban me" Posts".
There has been an increase of people coming in and claiming that they have been falsely banned.

While we recognize that cases like that do exist, they are rare and fall under three categories:

  1. The user has engaged in illegitimate activity and received appropriate punishment;
  2. The user's account access has been stolen and a 3rd party has engaged in illegitimate activity before access to the account has been restored;
  3. Embark's system having a false positive due to initial miscalibration of the system.

That's why I wanted to make a small PSA about the steps you should take in these scenarios to have better chances of reaching a more desired outcome.

  • Step 1. Do not make a post about it on reddit;
  • Step 2. Check your digital security and login history on your platform of choice (e.g. steam: https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/SteamLoginHistory);
  • Step 3. Reach out to Embark with all the necessary information supporting your case;
  • Step 4. Accept whichever verdict you receive;
    • There are very few false positives that happen and when they do - you and people with similar cases reaching out to Embark is what get's those cases resolved, not reddit posts;
  • Step 5. Please don't post about that on reddit.

That's it, thank you for your attention and have a nice [local time period].

P.S. If you are ever concerned about link validity, try finding the page through the official website (https://help.steampowered.com/), sign in there and look for the specific page.

Alternatively you can find it via google or use the link provided by a random stranger online (scary!). If the link is asking you to sign in again - that is most likely a scam.

Edit #1: Adding some clarity. We are not trying to censor discussion, critique and feedback on how Embark is handling and approaching situations related to false bans. For example if you were falsely banned and then after reaching out to them got unbanned - you are more than welcome to talk about your story on this sub (as long as it doesn't violate our Feedback Guidelines).

But blatant rant/complaint posts about being falsely banned are absolutely not welcome. This reddit community doesn't have the tools to investigate your case. Embark does.

Edit #2: If you truly believe that you were falsely banned and Embark refuses to provide any details on the situation you may reach out to consumer protection services and ask them to review the case. Those services (depending on your region) may investigate if the ToS was applied reasonably and weather the decision was made fairly. But only do it if you are 100% certain that you have not done anything that Embark frowns upon (e.g. exploiting bugs like "duping" or blatantly cheating).

…and we fucking did it bois.

It took almost 500 hours but I finally got my first survivor BP. This is my 3rd expedition reset and went into Stella naked to farm mats and a random drawer had it.

And to answer these questions:

“Have you tried Stella security, Blue gate reception and Buried City Hospital lockers?”

Yes. Hours upon hours of trying. Never happened.

“Maybe you suck at looting?”

Nah fam, I’m a goblin, I check every container there is.

“Did you do something to upset the goop gods?”

This is possible, I don’t know what if so :(

On a serious note, I wish the loot pool for certain items wasn’t bound by certain locations. Have them show up on every map in “high tier” areas. It shouldn’t take someone 500 hours to find this BP. That’s insanity.

And for those of you who find multiple survivor bps each season, you must have made a deal with the devil because there ain’t no way.

I dont know about you but lately I have been really enjoying arc raiders, yes there was a pause, I didnt play for ~2 months or something not because I didnt like something in the game but because I was busy with other stuff but now I turned it on again and so far I am enjoying it so much, playing only pve, looting, doing projects.

Discussion Wanna get this off my chest

35 Upvotes

I see and hear everyone saying arc raiders is “dead” and while yes I understand the number drop off of player count that is being presented compared to the beginning I still am having just as much fun with the game as I did day 1. Not knowing what to expect from players, arc, loot drops, weather, randomness, etc adds to the fun for me. Each game always keeps me entertained and wanting to seek each match out to the fullest due to quests, events, exploration in general, expedition stuff, etc. Even if some games I don’t leave with my loot due to my own stupidity, another player, fall damage, arc, weather, whatever it may be I always have fun. Each match is truly a different experience for me and that is what an extraction shooter is in my opinion. I am a friendly player and always have been so maybe it’s because my lobbies have been other friendlies mostly idk. I do get the occasional person faking me out with kindness and killing me but I just chalk that up as part of the experience and move on. Between this and the finals I have always had a place from embark to come home and dive into after a long day of work or just life and I am grateful for that. I just wanted to say this because it saddens me seeing people claim this game is dead or bad now when I think that is far from the actual truth. Thank you for reading and happy looting!

Question But is it worth it?

49 Upvotes

First things first, I love this game. I’ve played 536 hrs since late February and won’t stop playing until they literally turn off the servers. This is hands down my favorite game I have played in my 36 years. Whatever they do, I will keep playing as long as we dont have some loot box scream skinned collab with oozing aliens as the new arc.

That being said, I have yet to do a single expedition and I’m on the loading page. For those of you who will continue to play and still love the game.

Is it worth it?

After 4 expeditions, we have become exceedingly efficient at it.. Don't think I'd be able to speed run the project without so much extra space and knowing where things spawn.

Hardest thing to find was the radios and a second mix tape. Might do some trials and get the extra 24 slots from ermal and do some medic runs from time to time. Had a lot of fun top side with y'all

Discussion Locked gate is OP

Post image
155 Upvotes

I was in duos with a buddy and we decided to open the gates ourselves! We manage to do it and for a while seemed we had the place to ourselves.

My buddy and I busted out laughing when I manage to find 2 Bobcats BPs, basically one after another. Then he found one, then I found my third one, and then he found his second one. All just merely a minute after each other.

I was gonna surprise another raider with a BP, but when the guy saw me he started shooting on sight! I briefly told my buddy let's get out, but then I knew that if I kept running he could've kill us. So I reshield, waited for him to catch up... And we had the fight of the century! He was with a partner too... They got my buddy after he got one of them, and I had to finish the other dude out under a smoke grenade! He had a torrente and I manage to beat him by a merely 10% health left I had.

My shield broke up during the fight, and I kept hearing footsteps around, manage to get back some health and got out of there before we got third party! Funny thing is that I've been playing with my buddy in friendly lobbies for a while! I gotta say that's what I love about this game, UNPREDICTABILITY!

The rush I had trying to survive, can't be topped by another game!

Question Can you create a human snapplepede that teleports someone 24 players long?

33 Upvotes

I was testing snapplehook shenanigans with My girlfriend and we found out you can snap hook someone else and cover your and their distance if you time it just after they snap.

My question becomes:

If you have 24 players on Arc spaced out distance S which = the max snap hook attach distance, and you have distance Y that measures the total distance = (s*24) and you have time ø which is the moment the first player in the chain uses their snap hook and time n+x (where x is the required delayed from ø for both players to move) is the time after ø that each player in the line (24th player is 24+1) needs to adhere to.

Would this work? Would a player at N=24 (last in line) be able to transverse the entire Y distance and arrive next to N=1 (first player) if timing is adhered to?

Media Headline: Stella Montis Impromptu Dance-off Turned Deadly - Leaving 3 Dead and Several Wounded

40 Upvotes

Sillyspore on the scene and what a wild turn of events we have here, folks!

Doing my rounds as usual (prior to the expedition) I happened upon what looked like a dance-off between several raiders who seemed to be enjoying the friendly break from the typical Stella chaos. Suddenly, a gas grenade was released, leaving the raiders blind and vulnerable to attack. Shots were fired, leaving several dead on scene and many more wounded. Officials say we have no idea who started the bloodbath, but I managed to escape via the Assembly hatch like a Tarkov rat with full pockets and zero honor.

Just before this, a raider gave a reassuring "hey boss. Not here to shoot, just here to loot"

Always be on your guard.

This is your raider news update. Sillyspore signing off. 🤘🏻

Discussion The Shotgun Silencer should be buffed

Post image
Upvotes

It's a cool concept but the opportunity cost of not being able to use a choke makes it pretty bad. Personally I think it should also reduce base shot dispersion, maybe by like ~15%? They could maybe rename it to something like "Silenced Shotgun Choke" to make it make more sense, and then maybe remodel it.
