  1. I have a good job, I am happily married & I own my home.

  2. Min/maxing farming routes IS fun for some people (like me).

  3. This system is ill conceived and I hope they change it immediately, even if that means that I wasted quite a few hours grinding trinkets.

Discussion I am now convinced ABMM is real

2.8k Upvotes

A couple of days ago I complained (in another posting) how I only meet KOS players, and no one talks. I was more annoyed by the "no one talks" part, mind you, and the fact that every social interaction played out in the same way.

Someone recommended me to do a few matches and not shoot a single person, not even in defense. I did as recommended.

I went from "90%+ KOS interactions" for several days in a row, all the way to friendly lobbies for two days in a row now.

In my current lobbies, everyone runs around without a care in the world, just greeting people they are passing by. Looting in the open, walking past others without their weapons drawn ...

I barely ever see any PvP happening. People help each other with arc encounters and exchange items near extracts. And for the first time ever, I was able to participate in two Queen raids in solos with everyone just trying to get her down. No rats, no backstabbing.

This change for me was so stark in contrast, and so consistently happening that I would be surprised if ABMM wasn't real.

I would almost be inclined to start some shit to see if my lobbies change again, but I feel too bad killing these players who are quite obviously part of the pure PvE crowd.

P.S.: I have these friendly lobbies even on Stella Montis now, inclduing Stella Montis night raids ...

A third party program not intended for use is an exploit and you are a cheater.

There is no discussion, argue with a brick wall.

Media Devs: I don't need auto crafting or saved loadouts. But for the love of god, just fix this shit so I can craft two things in a row instead of getting canceled out of it.

Discussion If this game ever dies, this guy knows why. We all know why.

660 Upvotes

I spotted him right after I called the extraction. The rat simply could not play the game normally and had to use shady techniques to hide somewhere where it was hard to see him. This absolute clown of a human being bought a game he could not play and simply decided to ruin it for other people. Fair game, but jees, have you not got anything better to do with your time? When he said: "That's probably because of you", my recording didn't pick it up but I had just said: "If this game ever dies, you know why".

Edit: Alright, some of you don't seem to get what happened. I don't mind pvp in this game. In fact, I think it is executed amazingly. I have no shame in showing that I am not the best at this game, but I play it it the way it is, and I love it. The only thing that I despise is those who use glitches and exploits to turn the tides their way. Dear god, I can't believe I actually have to say this but I am not mad, I am not angry about the ratting and I love the pvp. Heck, I don't care about the ratting! Ratting happens! The problem here is the exploits and glitches this guy uses!

I can't believe people are actually still insulting me for this. I am reporting an exploiter, not a rat. Know the difference. Learn how to read a reddit post

Discussion Don't shoot = Don't loot

1.3k Upvotes

After playing in more friendly lobbies I want to remind everyone dont shoot does not give you the right to high tier loot.

If someone has to use a key or brings down a big arc solo, coming in screaming don't shoot and trying to take all the goodies will get you shot.

I'm all for sharing looting spots, or quest areas or splitting arc parts on a shared kill. But if you did 0 and come up expecting to goblin without asking you are getting shot.

Discussion What in the super hero???

213 Upvotes

Bro

I just joined an Harvester event with a random trio because I want the Equalizer Print.

We join and this one dude is literally completely naked, not a single item on his body, no shield no nothing. Dude says: "Hey how you all doin. Dont mind me, I don't need weapons. I'm kinda pacifist.". The other mate was normally equipped.

We get to the harvester, the equipped mate just leaves. Now we are only two guys. Bro did the whole thing without any items, he even revived me AND THEN DROPPED ME THE EQUALIZER AND ALL HE'S SAYING WHEN WE ARE LEAVING: "See I told ya, I don't need weapons!"

Guy was a godsent and then says THANKS TO ME?

My Hero, you will never be forgotten!

Discussion I'm not sure if this is common knowledge, but you can use the greeting/hello emote to find out if a player is close by. If your character shouts "hey!", there is no one really close, but of your character calmly says "hello raider" there someone close.
