My new favorite activity is blasting nerds metal detecting on the beach

Yall fuckin kidding me with this shit fr? This is Arc Raiders, not ya dads favorite hobby. I load up with a bobcat IV and will ask if some geeks got a lil model ship they don't need and pretend to be slapping on some sunscreen and digging for some pop cans then BLAM! I blast their ass when they dig up a fuckin tick for the 4th time, tossing wind sprites at them as they try crawling away. They always be crying "I'm trying to find my roots wtf" Man how about you root this foot up yo ass.

I can't BELIEVE this is what this fuckn game has resorted to, its despicable.

Every single QT is out of them, the velo section is completely empty and the staff has no idea when they'll get more. Zyn is slowly running out too. They say they aren't discontinuing it but it looks like they're discontinuing them. Do I need to hit up tobacco stores or go online?

First off, I find music to be an insanely grating, sensory overloading and extremely overrated form of entertainment and artistry. The inane expiration of Soundwaves, the vanity of the entire scene, the complete degradation of society it contributes to are just a few of the problems it creates.

Regardless, I cannot stand when some player decides to invade my gamespace with this absolutely useless game mechanic. It's kill on sight, no matter what. If you want to make funny noises in a survival shooter, go to the practice ground and have at it. I am not on here to mess around.

I am a 46 year old dad and I have played this game religiously since launch. I immediately fell in love with the gameplay as I am a big fan of Armored Core and Terraria. I love looting and fighting big robots. I have been getting 3 hours of sleep a night for 7 months in order to meet the needs of my children, my wife and put 5 hours into this game daily. I have completed all the quests, done the expedition 2 times and have every achievement. I fell in love with my routine and it has really brought me out of a deep depression I was settling into, a lot of it dur to Donald Trump and my career in AI finance facing an uncertain future.

With the release of this latest update, everything changed. I could no longer utilize the photoelectric cloak in the same way to run the exact same route on blue gate every match and the increase weapon degradation has caused me to utilize items I had been storing in my inventory that I wanted to keep for a rainy day in Speranza. This has caused me irrefutable and intractable discomfort and anxiety. I could handle the wolfpacks becoming more expensive to use, it was hard, but I did it. I simply cannot overcome this rate of weapon degradation and I no longer enjoy the game that has brought me immense joy these last 8 months. I used to not get upset when I would get ratted, its part of the game, right? Well now I am losing supplies faster than I could ever hope to recover in the 5 hours a day I have to play and now I am regrettably having to rely on free loadouts, which cause me even more distress. I refuse to even try the new map as I have been told by multiple commenter on this sub that it sucks.I am at my wits e

nd here

With all that being said, I have been in contact with my lawyers and I am writing up a lawsuit towards embark for causing me undue stress and discomfort due to their poor management of the game and I will be seeking financial compensation for my trauma. I am diagnosed ADHD, C-PTSD (had a very traumatic encounter with a conservative at Lowes), ASD. MDD and chronic fatigue syndrome. I do not find disruptions in my routine easy to handle and thus latest update has caused am excessive strain on my relationships, my work performance and put me in a constant state of fight or flight. Embark needs to realize we are real human beings behind the monitor, we have feelings and we deserve better. I have requested that Judge David Fleicher preside over my case as I know he will be fair and take me seriously. I hope others take up my mantle and we finally shoe Embark Studios we are gling to make this game fun again. not just succumb to the will pf their development team.

I can never have fun again ating ARC Raiders. The guns are broken, the new map is mid, the photoelectric cloak nerf makes the game completely unplayable, weapons repairing upon upgrade just allows the rats to kill me more, and the map fixes and tweaks do not help me defeat other players in gun to gun combat.

I have put 791.4 hours into this game, I paid $40 at launch and I feel like the devs just don't give a single crap about me or my contributions to this game (which include killing over 5000 Raiders). If the devs don't get their head out of their asses and start making this game more accessible to serious diehard players like me, then I'm gonna have to be forced to only play this game 40 hours a week instead of the 80 I'm putting in now.

Also, I'm a DAD and now I can't enjoy this game anymore. Anyone else a DAD?
