@thepichugger@The_x_news_@ArcRaiderAlerts@TenaciousTek I think you're misunderstanding. Someone who is good at a videogame can choose to be an asshole *Specifically* to be an asshole. Not because they're bad, not because they want loot, just to troll and annoy people. The term which has existed forever is called griefing.
@College88358391@NinjaTank25@ArcRaiderAlerts This isn't just an arc raiders thing, in basically every extraction shooter the bad players are just loot bags for either Rats or highly skilled players.
@thepichugger@The_x_news_@ArcRaiderAlerts@TenaciousTek This is only half true, not everyone who trys to get in PvE lobby's are bad players. Some of them are people who, in spite of being good at the game, have more fun when they are making their opponents mad (exhibit A would be any Call of duty player)
@Eithrail@lordvictor True, I just felt like steam punk has had pretty consistently unique guns, this felt like more of a hate on Future Sci-Fi and less like Alternate present/past
@HiggsTugsten@VagabondCipher@lordvictor Even better, if you want a unique feeling gun to use make the cylinder hold three batteries and each battery holds several shots, then have it spin to swap batteries
It would be reminiscent of this weapon below (which I think would be a good sci-fi gun itself) ๐
@JermSeventy@imablock3@lordvictor I think future guns should go down the crazy unique guns route.
Like the Vector SMG with an anti recoil system and the AN94 with hyper burst.
Just make these but stronger, like a vector made using rifle caliber rounds (which could be possible in a world with future tech)
@LizardNettle@ItzRileyMan@ignor3th1s@GMShivers Enforcing people's rights by arresting people trying to break them isn't the same thing as forcing someone to supply something to someone else
@__C_a_l_e_b__@JohnnyLeinny@PaulTassi@Epic_Amans Marathon was also vilified right up until release to the level of Concord & High guard. The fact it survived is impressive in its own right. I adore Marathon so I'm glad it did.
@logicxburner @cin_Aamon@sc0nesandc0ffee You're right, but you're not accounting for the fact that people like me who haven't touched this mode have to go against hyper sweats who got purple and gold loadouts in their first few games that aren't even trying to loot anymore since they just hop in this mode for gear.
@ferrozaf@PaulTassi@JoseButWithPH I mean doing the contracts is fun, but no most people are in it for the gun fights. Me personally I just enjoy hoarding loot and getting big stashes in extraction shooters. And shooting people in the head with snipers.
@KryDotExe@D1AndOnlyGage What's the point of rage baiting this dude, he's being real. Generally if an online multiplayer game is good it has high player retention, if people do not like your game that means it's not as good. And hopefully Marathon can gain a number of players back for more seasons.
