Do You Think There Are Cronus Hackers On Console?

Im on PlayStation turned off crossplay months ago due to blatant hack’s from the pc side and I have over 1k knock’s, started noticing real questionable shit these last few months. Big reason im taking a break is pre teaming in squads that shit is cancer, duped economy doesn’t help cause everyone just buy’s bags of purple fully kitted guns for 5 bucks i grind solos to build solid kits but that shit feels redundant when everyone in high tier essentially takes the pay to play route.

Im seeing some questionable shit tho not necessarily wall hacks but definitely kronus/macros and some crazy shit where bullets go through walls. Even some invincibility(take with a grain of salt it could’ve been lag) dumped a full vulcano clip into some dudes head point blank at buried dude ate it no shield break holds r1 for like 5 seconds and im dead.

People pulling a full 360 spin with no telegraphing (don’t see the head turn prior basic animation when you observe your surroundings) they flip and beam you instantly with a duped bobby shit is garbage. I know saying this about console would just be chalked up to skill issue but im hearing the same thing from other players and i know some seriously cracked players on console who are bouncing because of this. Alot of this shit i saw back when i had crossplay on but im starting to see similar shit on console now.

My step away is mostly cause the duped kits and pre teaming i could stack my inventory with purples i get off killed opponents but the loop im used to is grinding for kits in solos then taking that gamble in solo vs squads or squads. Fights teams that really got nothing to lose and gank gets boring alot of the technical aspect of pvp is kinda out the window at the moment n that was the funnest part about pvp in this game.

2 Arakure’s And A Hitokiri Join A Lobby

Story time children, Ive been clean off for honor for 2 years and relapsed yesterday due to rage quitting arc raiders after months of dedication. Came back to the same shit but I can’t be mad, after arc i will never complain about lack of balance in a video game ever again.

Played for about 3 hours on dominion surrounded by pc players (im on PlayStation) regular rotation between matches only two ara’s and a hito remained first off i washed them hard that first match so much so that they proceeded to grief me whenever rotation put us on the same team.

Slapping me out of finishers and such swiping at me when i came by, mind you i had 3 hours in rotation with these guys and it was bad blood off the rip. These dudes solely ganked never saw em actually win a 1v1, so the last match i got with em i decided to be of absolute no help i simply spectated them running 1v1’s with other players and getting slapped. Other team was good at splitting them apart and washing accordingly. needless to say they couldn’t do a damn thing without a handler with them.

I was the last alive fighting bots just waiting for the other team to kill me when one of them finally spoke up. Blasted on comms about how i was dogshit raged bitched and moaned about how i got no kills in the match in a calm demeanor i reminded the raging kevin that they have yet to win a match where i am on the other team. I washed em in 1v1’s and when they tried to gank.

That shit sent em lmao the other two hopped on comms and they were raging so hard i couldn’t even understand what they were saying removed my headset and proceeded to rage bait on the mic without listening to the clusterfuck and bounced.

I lowkey missed this game😆

Post update glitches

I have been experiencing this glitch since the latest update and it’s only gotten worse,my character appears frozen in place and there’s nothing i can do about it. It only seems to trigger when i am looting containers, it isn’t my internet i have ran tests and checked with my provider and both my router and modem are running at full speeds.

Im on PlayStation plugged in via LAN cable and im wondering if this is affecting other players.

Nice lil fade with a rocketeer.

I been stuck in KOS lobbies for over a month, so taking down a rocketeer in these feels 10x more rewarding.

Arc Raiders Isn’t Ending It’s beginning.

I for one am extremely happy at the drop in player count, we need quality players not quantity. I myself am new to extraction shooters, and have since even engaged in hunt showdown because i fell in love with the extraction shooter setup.

Over 600 hours topside and play a mix of PVE and PVP, when im blessed with balanced raider interactions i can maintain well within the mixed lobbies without having to reset my abmm like many tourist’s, because i like others love the mixed experience.

That being said i feel like the players currently still engaging as i am are the true dedicated fan base and the tourist’s are leaving.

Finally and i hope the doors smack them on the ass on the way out.

Game hype has to die in order for the game to actually flourish, from my understanding this is the first game to actually push its way into mainstream gaming. So naturally many entitled gamers entered into arc with an expectation to cater towards what they believe the game is supposed to be. As a longtime dark soul’s player i witnessed the same thing when Elden ring first released.

That being said embark has wasted far too much time trying to appease care bear’s and rat’s the talk of clan systems and chinas traitor system gives high hopes for future balance adjustment’s along with added content which can only be appreciated by players who truly engage with the game in every aspect.

Imagine how much could get done if embark didn’t have to constantly tweak matchmaking and make accommodations for pure pvp or pve players? They could direct the resources to actually tackling the real problems like hacking and duping.

In my headcannon the arrival of the turbine, wiped a drastic number of raiders topside destabilized speranza and the survivors are left with the aftermath biding our time while celeste plots on the next move all we have to do is endure.

My lobbies are mostly aggressive now despite my friendly calls on comms, and defibing of topside victims. Although i prefer a nice 50/50 balance it comes with the territory, still loving it still knocking corner campers and one day i hope to actually land a snaphook deadline on a rocketeer.

Let the game begin🍻

Mixed Lobbies Are The True Lobbies

Im sick of these bitchy care bears and these neck beard sweat’s, if you ain’t in mixed lobbies you are not playing the game correctly.

Care bear’s fear a challenge and sweat’s can’t fight without third party’s, camping corners or abusing blatant exploits like aim assist (which is based on fps).

As a console player running at a humble 60 fps, i have to actually aim vs these pay to win sweat’s that bump they’re heads under a desk to buy a 800 dollar TV just to win. Yes i have a job and it pay’s well however i need to use my money on actual tangible things, like ibuprofen for the arc induced migraines i get from fighting some neck beard sweat that couldn’t wait to third party me after fighting off the bot slop that is the firefly and it’s brigade of bot shitter’s.

Care bear lobbies are too boring and lack variety all they do is cry and bitch whilst playing the part of friendly, but immediately go full blown adolf when someone shoot’s them for breaching their key room.

And what sucks about being a mutt (mixed lobby enjoyer)/(actual game formula player) is that we have to do mad work just to maintain in this style of lobby. Because cuck ass embark just can’t embrace the style of game they chose to create, so they created the cowards based matchmaking to separate the braindead player base that just can’t seem to play the game correctly.

Make it mandatory mixed lobbies, no more abmm the bears’s need to feel the tension that we feel or go back to skyrim if they want a powerplay fantasy.

Give Close Scrutiny To PVE’RS

Fun for fighting arc, absolute dogshit for actual goop hunting.

Apparently the devs are hinting at a pure pve mode, which is absurd and breaks the game because knowing these guy’s they’ll fuck around and make separate matchmaking entirely.

I volunteer close scrutiny as a test run because it’s dogshit, every one calling for a pve mode just wants to fight arc right? They can have that bot slop. Make it a map condition but NOT a matchmaking mode.

My biggest fear is the dev’s splitting matchmaking at the flip of a switch, because that destroys the game for those of us that play both. Ya’ll call it mixed lobbies but these lobbies are actually true to the game more so than KOS and care bear lobbies.

Let’s say they make PVE and Pvp toggle able in matchmaking, where does that leave us? The people who actually want both elements. We get the shaft cause pvpve would no longer exist, since everyone could just run away to a friendly fire off lobby. Lobbies wouldn’t be mixed since all friendly’s would bounce and the rats will stay in "regular" lobbies.

Point blank the game would lose it’s essence entirely, you get the choice of an asinine sweatfest; where everybody third parties eachother because they can’t get a kill without shooting someone already engaged in a firefight.

Or you can cue up with the Berenstain Bears and sing kumbayay while they all loot your key room/ARC and there’s nothing you can do about it since these bastards whined enough to get a mode with no consequences.

As a community get your shit together, i swear to god this division in the fanbase is going to be the actual death of the game.

KOS Torrente?

I hear certain skins/weapons like macrame outfit the sheisty and stitcher as a good enough reason to KOS another raider but i never hear this about the torrente.

Personally everyone i have encountered with a torrente is only in the lobby to mow people down, and since i have started shooting them on site i tend to find multiple shields and augment’s when looting the bodies.

So i just gotta ask what are your thoughts on this? Have you noticed the pattern? Or am i the only one running into hella torrente shitters.
