You are four prisoners sent in by an entity called the Warden to a giant complex filled with mutant zombie like things called Sleepers to perform tasks
Big emphasis (i MEAN big) on planning, teamwork and communication, and stealth
Your main method of killing sleepers will be working as a squad of four to sync up kills in melee
because ammo is scarce and guns are loud
they're called sleepers for a reason
You get a lot of tools like sentry guns, a foam launching gun that can seal doors or freeze enemies, an aliens style motion tracker (my beloved) and a trip mine deployer and you can find other items in runs like tripmines, foam tripmines, fog repellers (fog is THICK in some places and also sometimes hazardous to your health), big flashlights, et cetera
melee is really important both to keep quiet and save ammo, there's a hammer, a bat, a knife, and a spear
There used to be several types of hammer but then we got actual seperate melee options (now the old hammers are just skins for the hammer)

Sentinel feels like one of those slightly higher skill ideas.
Snare mines are cool but are slightly situational. Anti-grenade turrets are also cool but require the other team to remember they have grenades.

I think it will, the flares + the fact bullets still make sound like crazy + open map means very likely longer ranged fights still exist

Yeah, I’m optimistic about that to be clear, I think the map looks dope
I’m good with it having those sections, I think it is good to have a map that encourages bringing both long and short range
Currently outpost can be run with a bully being your only needed option and most engagements are going to be within its range bands.

Arc Raiders is more appealing to more casual audience (not meaning this negatively)
A lot of the supposed design philosophies (saying this cause I can't confirm them myself) basically lead to more casual dip in/dip out experience
Safe pockets, multiple extraction points without a big signpost, abmm, pve being easier and pvp being easier to avoid draws more people who want the more sandboxy-esque experience that dont want to worry about all the complexities other games might require

<@&1474420814979010821> multi part patch notes!
The biggest change we’re making here isn’t to the Misriah itself; rather, we are removing the rate of fire bonuses from Slick Mag magazine mods altogether. While it was an interesting experiment since the Misriah is the only weapon to take those mods, it isn’t sustainable. The idea was Misriah’s main weakness was its slow rate of fire, allowing players to counter Misriah by correctly spacing and attacking in between shots. Slick Mag presented an opportunity to shore up that weakness, but it’s clear it was pushing the weapon and its Prestige mod too far out of band.

I’m curious if the WSTR will get compensation buffs for the loss of magazine overflow chips

I think it is much safer to do so now that you can’t stack in up quite so high

Yeah that’s my thinking
No stack overflow and cloudborn rework means that the WSTR can probably be allowed to 2 shot people better if you’re precise
Without being able to vaguely point it at people and hold the trigger down

Misriah nerfs feel absolutely necessary though, I’m glad they’re addressing that.

pvp lite is one team and rooks
In Sponsored Survival, a single crew will infil onto the new Night Marsh zone. They’ll start as the only players on the map and can explore, loot, and blast their flashlights without fear of repercussion... from PVP enemies anyways. The UESC will still be there in full force, as will some new enemies that lurk in the shadows.
After a certain period of time, backfilled Rooks can enter the map and begin their own scavenging excursions. Perhaps they’ll remain lone wolves, or maybe they’ll team up with each other or the sole crew on the map—everyone's goal is survival, and how you get there is up to you.
In this mode, your one and only ticket off the map is to survive to the final exfil. Each match has an 18-minute run timer, and once it hits zero, the final exfil will spawn. Everyone will have a limited amount of time to book it over and prepare to make their exit. Once there, the decision is yours: Will you negotiate a temporary truce and exfil as one, or turn your weapons on each other in the dead of night?
this is so funny
patent thicket
That’s a really interesting balancing act!

Overrun is a gun that needs recoil control (your part) + treat it as semi-smg range (further out but not as far as traditional ARs)
Then it does fine
placid oxide
Yeah! Thijs linked it above

It's how I laser purple shields with it

Oh oops

Overrun is a gun that needs recoil control (your part) + treat it as semi-smg ra...
Oh sure, I’m specifically excited to see a gun that’s already useable get buffs

Ngl, minty fresh overrun looks the best of the 3 skins

I do think the new survival mode might have an interesting angle of being forced to negotiate if you want out. I know a lot of people will shoot first and ask never, but it does make the option of talking it out at final exfil more of an option.

I'm not going to buy a ps5 just for vandal skin
I will not do it
Nope
No way
I need to say this so I don't do it
placid oxide
That’s an expensive skin, lol
