ARC Raiders players on PC can use a trick to manipulate the game. They do this by changing their system date while in the game, forcing the state forward and tricking the game’s internal calendar. By doing this, some users have revealed future map conditions, trials, and other additions.
I’m enjoying the game so far but I feel like no matter how many hours I’m able to put into it I’m just going to keep being so far behind everyone else. I’m glad they’ve implemented ABMM because getting shot in the back all the time was getting old.
Same here. It has seriously been an amazing game I’ve played the shit out of strictly based on that. Now if they’d adjust the blueprint drop rate a bit…I’d be ecstatic.
Abmm?
Sorry, “aggression based match making”. As I understand it: The more you PvP the more PvP players you’ll play with, the more you help and PvE the more you end up in lobbies with people that do that. It’s not a science or exact but I’ve noticed a lot less people shooting at me the more matches I’ve played.
That’s a pretty cool mechanic tbh
I’ve only taken friendly actions and still keep getting put into matches with PvPers that shoot me on sight and keep shooting after I tell them I am friendly. Had 3 matches in a row where I was ganked and lost everything each time. Their matchmaking is still trash. I uninstalled.
It takes 4-5 matches to graduate out of pvp
112 hours of gameplay and still being shot on sight after stating I was friendly, don’t shoot.
Post your in-game stats.
I mean clearly you’re doing something wrong. Or not describing things accurately.
Sorry to hear that. I’m speaking from experience when I’m telling you it gets better. I got ganked probably a handful of time and since then haven’t run into them. I’m telling you you should really give it a shot again. It may have been this was instated after you gave up as I’m not sure when it was put into place.
I gave up last night. I wrote a review in one of the gaming forums if you want to see what I thought about it. Jimquisition also wasn’t impressed by it. I gave up last night after a total of 112 hours of game play. I don’t think it’s a fun or good game. Clearly I’m in the minority of players, but I won’t be back until there are strictly PvE lobbies.
What a trash article ngl. Not even an effort to pretend any sort of objectivity or rational arguments.
Bro is mad about AI so game bad. Saved you a click.
aggression based matchmaking. the game puts you with people who pvp as much as you do.
So if I only pve, it will place me with other non violent players? Neat!
Yes. I play stealthy and non-aggro and most of the time my lobbies are full of people dicking around with no fear of aggression from other people because the rats are busy killing each other in the aggro lobbies.
For the most part, yes. Not a guarantee but I played like ~50 some hours over winter break, all solo, all peaceful. Ended with like 3 deaths due to players.
It is, however, not smart enough to separate solo and party behavior. So if you play aggressive with your buddies but peaceful solo, there is a very painful transition period.
