This bull**** needs to get fixed somehow. Those people driving around with the truck are annoying as hell. In addition they are almost invincible and deal massive damage, that's not fair regarding players with "weapons".

Then buy a truck
this is not the first and it won't be the last topic about this stuff..
soon enough ppl will stop driving through them or they won't...probably not something that can be "fixed" soo yeah deal with it?
So i'm assuming that people playing this game don't really find humor in running giant bugs over? I think it sounds kinda funny when ya run them over. Granted when going into an Arkfall i'm not gonna stop my vehicle at the edge and walk in... i'm gonna driver in smash some things and do an action roll out the door before i start shooting.
I've seen very few people just driving in circles around the arkfalls that i've participated in. I can see how ppl feel the need to keep killing the skitterlings and that gets annoying because they help destroy the crystal...
i just think some ppl are taking the game a little too serious when others are clearly using their $60 purchase for fun.
Sooo where do I get this truck ?
one of the Vehicle Vendors
Which one of the vehicle vendors then?
yeah what he said
It's just part of the game and not game breaking. They like driving, you like shooting. Oh well.
Oh well, they just deal 10k dmg with one crash oh well. Hopefully i can compete with my 180x16 shotgun oh well. Oh well, I think you are one of the stupid vehicle drivers as well, oh weLL.
In addition, the only way to get this truck is to do one of two story missions. The second one is in San Francisco, but unluckily I have finished the story the day before yesterday so I cannot participate in this ridiculous bullsh1_t right now. I may take it too serious but that is annoying the crap out of me. (Not that I cannot take part but the stupid drivers)
I don't own the game and when I played Alpha + Beta I would drive to the zone then roll out and go crazy healing with my BMG, that's *ALL* I do so...meh :P.
I was being a tease in my last post. Honestly I don't get bothered by them driving around doing that. If they want to play that way then they can.
In addition the ark falls are a fundamental element of the competetive coop of defiance. Due to the facts constituted above, there is no balance and fairness at all i.e. if some fu_ck3rs were driving around with tanks that wouldn't be fair as well I think
I'm sure just driving around during a arkfall would eventually get boring, but it does sound like fun running over bugs!
50-man Truck raid on the next ark to fall. GO!
All it takes is a few ***hats to ruin it for everyone. Odds are they will disallow vehicles inside active Arkfall areas. That's the only thing that can fix this. And it is a problem, I watched one truck push a Monach off of a cliff and outside the Arkfall area. It needs to be stopped.
Yea but if they disable vehicles in arkfalls, it's annoying for Time Trial people who just happen to have an Arkfall infront of them. Suddenly they get out of their vehicle and boom there goes their Time Trial. It's annoying but vehicles do eventually get damaged and they have to spawn it again.
I get a kick out of seeing ppl going buck wild during an arkfall. Cars/Guns/People crawling around trying to get a rez LOL.
Especially during those big big arkfall events. Like the Hellbug Mother LOL oh sheet fun times to be had seeing those cars getting blown up and the person driving that car gets thrown across the screen.
Well you're right. Atleast the vehicles shouldn't deal any dmg in these areas then. Then the time trial players wouldn't have any problems as well- of course that isn't a 1min-fix. But it must get fixed as soon as possible- because it is a major abuse -well,in my impression.
The wonderful advantage of an MMO is freedom. If they start restricting things because someones raging at it then the game starts to lose its appeal.Vehicles tend to explode anyway when they hit larger enemies(Except from maybe the truck but there isn't really allot of them driving around).
Sure I hate fools running over skitterings as much as the next guy...When it comes to bigger enemies though it's not even a problem. The fact that they explode is the fix to what could've potentially been an abusive situation. Seriously could you imagine if vehicles where indestructible?
If this complaint was about a vehicle killing a matriarch(Or whatever those bigger things are) in one crash, then I would see the point.
The problem is that the vehicles push enemies around in addition to damaging them. This can lead to problems when they are pushed outside of the zone. Not to mention it makes shooting them that much more difficult.
Restriction does suck, but when people can't use self-control, there isn't much of a choice.
i hate people that drive there cars around why doing arkfalls and mega boss it suck and need sorting out
Freedom needs to get restricted sometimes. Just for example an arkfall today, a guy only driving around with the druck dealt 1.5 million dmg the second player only 150k dmg. So the 1st player did 15 times more dmg with a truck than a player using a weapon? That's not fair! And the most annoying thing about it was that THIS guy wrote "Truck driver 1st place" in the chat. This stupid idiots know they aren't playing fair and they dont do it because of fun - they just want to annoy other people and gain top scores in a very unfair way.
They will get tired of it eventually. They figure what they are doing is smart, but what they are really doing is actually really incredibly stupid. Not for the reason that it is annoying, but that they are leaving a mountain of potential experience points lying on the battle field. They aren't getting any weapon specific experience points, or the best general experience points. Let them mow down a couple hundred cockroaches. They are worth all of three points a piece.
I got cass's truck and went to work on a few arkfalls before, it's really fun lol.
Fair enough I can see your point there, However a better solution than disabling vehicles is needed. I don't mind there being no damage to creatures or even noclip in the arkfall zone. If they force people to walk across the zone to the ammo box rather than drive and get back in time for the boss then that would be more frustrating than someone squashing bugs.
So what you're saying is that rolling up and pushing the monarchs to the other end of the map is an effective trolling maneuver.
This is an easy fix, just disable vehicle summoning as soon as you enter the arkfall circle.
I have gotten rewards for like no work. I got to the last Arkfall and AFAICT never hurt anything yet got XP and a couple of pieces of equipment. Perhaps I never finished first (outside of beta) and don't know of a special benefit, but I'd say if the deadline was beaten then all's good.
What's BAD about vehicles is when some moron parks on top of the spot where the crystal was and prevents you from picking up your items...
so back to where you can get this truck...
