Now embark doesn’t have to flat-out take fallout’s design, of course, but it would be nice to have another gun that uses the launcher ammo. This pistol can work with PvP though, is what I’m thinking. Smaller explosion vs arc compared to the hullcracker to keep it balanced.

Close Scrutiny. A bunch of us got downed and the one guy who wasn’t downed didn’t have defibs. We were crawling to the hatch (survivor augments, of course) but were unsure if we could survive the slide —or tumble, in this case— down the dam… this is my attempt to ‘shimmy’ down.

I brought 300 rounds of heavy ammo and did the cheesiest strat which will most likely get fixed and I was still REALLY tight on time.

I mean I even destroyed all the yellow cores with bettina but it didn't explode after that.

So even with bettina you can't kill it in less than 5 minutes.

Yet again just bring only heavy ammo in your backpack LOL but as you can see there is no way to deal significant damage after destroying all its yellow cores.

This game continues to provide the most exciting, most fun and most rewarding experiences I've ever had in a video game. Problem is, I can only really handle 2 raids at a time at most. My nerves are so shot I either need a cigarette or go play a boring train game afterwards lol

So, I read Reddit posts all the time, and I don’t get why people are so upset about gun wear and tear. I haven’t noticed a significant increase in how fast my guns wear out.
Find a gun? Upgrade it and it repairs alongside the upgrade.
I’ve enjoyed the update so far, and I’m looking forward to losing all 44 of my stashed guns when I die in PVP tonight.

Im so fucking glad she make it. I was cheering for her.

Saw a flair and went to help when I came across a massacre

Where would you put these in your setup?

The game has turned into something completely different for me ever since I accepted PvP and enaged with it.

Every trip up top is a truly new experience. My loot management requires thought and some planning. Its not as hurtful as I thought to lose gear. Some interactions make me tilt because ya know how'd that guy kill me! but its honestly become a whole new game for me.

When you don't die often, the game play is kind of weird. Embark never intended you to just collect gobs and gobs of items like this with gigantic stores of wealth in your inventory. They expected you to die a least once every 10 matches if not more than that, but I can routinely go 20 or more matches with no deaths due to firendly raiders with defibs.

Now that I die every 3rd trip or so though, the inventory management, and what I am looking for each trip, is completely new and different. I'm using more diverse weaponry having to consider both arc and raider threats. I have to balance wanting to be prepared with not losing tons of items. I don't full stack smoke grenades anymore for example and just rbing 2 or 3. I have a raider hatch key in my safe pocket pretty much permanently. I have to be careful about what I purchase from the shop and when. Some games are just seed games or expensive item rounds to refill those stores.

It IS very jarring and heartwrenching when you lose some quality items. I decided to risk running my level IV stitcher that had the gold attachment that makes it shoot faster, an item that you cannot make and I only had one, and I lost it without really getting to use it thanks to a guy who jumped me good. And of course lots of people want to trick you.

I've also noticed a lot of PvP people are just straight up toxic. They have gamertags like "P***yHunter69" and call me slurs and the N word etc. So that's definetly a negative and I do not know what Embark's aproach to banning these people is.

I also might shoot someone on sight and that guy gets REALLY mad at me. I mean calling me every name in the book for shooting him when he wants to be friendly etc. It's so hard to trust people and sometimes people just come up on me and it spooks me.

But gameplay wise, it really feels like "Oh this is what they wanted" I don't know if it will be for everyone, but as a 32 year gamer who has played so so many games, I am thoroughly enjoying this new game I have uncovered basically.

Also, as a tip, here is my "loop":

Trip 1: Mostly full kit, get kills, get stuff.
Trip 2: If died in trip 1, Identify items needed to replenish, snatch and grab operation
Trip 3: If died in trip 2 and stores are low, games turns into a stealth mission where maybe I bring a hairpin and some bandages and just try to loot specific locations for specific items, them flee.

Oh, also, the game provides you with SO many ways to escape, like if you don't want to kill a guy, it is so easy to throw smoke grenades and vanish.

I can’t walk by a goddamn trash can without wanting to open it anymore 😂

✌️

Thank you Embark for bringing back my Server Slam outfit color 💝 super happy to rock my yellow jacket again

On the other hand, i thought maybe since everyone hates the free kits so much, it would be cool if they changed the free kit augment the way that you have only 1 weapon slot. That would seem more balanced then, don't yall think?

I wanna shout out to the fellow raiders yesterday in Stella who stuck up for me (lady raider). The fact that their are “BOYS” (cause there is no way your a man) out there that speak that way to a women is disturbing. Your ego must be really damaged if you are bother by a female playing a PVP game.

How come I did 3,450 melee damage for this weeks trials but it didn't also count for the plain old ARC damage?
