    better yet , if you damage your ride, you have to repair it once its destroyed.... AND make them targetable during the arkfall....

    Oh I completely agree on this issue. Its a seriously lags the heck out of my game when that happens and makes Arkfalls very frustrating.

    You are standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door.
    There is a small mailbox here.
    To your left is a dead horse decaying on the ground. Next to the horse is a stick.

    > pick up stick

    You are now holding a stick.

    >beat teh horse

    I do not understand the command "teh".

    >beat the horse

    You are now beating a dead horse with a stick.

    I think they're completing pursuit where they have to run over 500 hellbugs with vehicle.

    You can buy a Synergy Mod Cache from the Lock Box Merchant for 16 Keycode and 1,500 Scrip. Or is that not the type of MOD people are talking about?

    Bug & Chug? Seriously, opposite the station, it's just Hellbugs galore and you can do it by yourself without annoying anyone.

    It is, but they're practically always the Brutal synergy which is nothing but melee buffs in a game that isn't designed with that as a viable tactic.

    Yep, this. I have weapons with everything but 'Brutal' and that's all I get in the Mod boxes. Waste of bits and scrip right now unless you have something with Brutal.

    The solution is easy... Make it so that other players can cause damage to the rides. We'll blow them up so quick it ain't even funny.

    You need a better pc then, if your on pc, if your on a console then.. LOLOLOL is all I can say. Nothing lags me in defiance on my pc not even arkfalls with like 50+ people around. My pc is not even that great by todays standarts.

    Meh the game has way worse problems than people using vechicles in arkfalls like: No progression, piss-poor weapon system, poor mod system for said weapons, npcs need to drop mods and they need to be freely removable from weapons without needing to lose the weapon or the mods. Can name tons of other things, but the lack of any progression or feeling of getting stronger really irks me. Warframe a f2p title which is also a 3rd person shooter has a far better sense of progression due to its mod system, and how you can upgrade, and freely add/remove mods at will. Weapons also rank up, each rank gives 1 mod point, each weap has 8 mod slots, sometimes with polarities that make a mod with the matching symbol take half the points. Mods use from 1 to xx points (xx because I don't know how high they can go). Base stats on the weapon doesn't change, but the addition of mods really makes you feel like your getting stronger as you play. Unlike in defiance where it just feels static, all I ever notice is my +duration on overcharge, and my +30% reload if not moving, though if you start the reload, then start moving you still get the 30% bonus, I always stop, hit R for the 30% reload speed bonus, then start moving again the second the reload animation starts, seems reload time doesn't/can't change once the animation starts. Combine this with 30% faster reload when overcharge is active, and well, you can do some obsene damage with a vbi-tacc assault rifle (does 3 shots bursts, each bullet hits for 370, so 370x3 damage per click). It owns, but thats about as far as I feel I have gotten stronger since the weapons never change, and the modding system is such a piece of crap.

    When I first seen a post like this I thought, "that's crazy, just let people play how they want". Let me tell you, I was WRONG. I witnessed this same driving at the arkfalls nearly 8 times yesterday. There does need to be some kinda of fix for that because while these jerks are driving in circles at the falls, it is impairing the other players line of vision not to mention the number of kills we accumulate. I died twice at one arkfall because i was in the middle of a stupid huge truck that decided to drive over me and could not see my surroundings or move. I seen another player suggest Trion should do the same thing that happens when you enter the water on a vehicle. As soon as you enter that little circle for that ark you should be ejected from your vehicle.

    I do this with my car but only on the arks with waves of mobs to kill .

    Sorry, but im leveling my Roller skils (again, seeing as its already reset once due to bug).

    Also, nerf to vehicle health 'solved' some of these issues. I quoted solved because this isn't a problem, and youre just whining for the sake of it, lets be honest now...

    Blame Trion for their crappy Pursuit implementation.

    You forget to activate repeat task so the screen fills with that.
    I laughed. Why because it is so true. Really, with all the broken parts, chat still not working, missing weapons, broken stats, repeating instances, fricking emergencies appearing on top of your mission, you guy are worried about cars crushing hellbugs at an arkfall. Yes its wrong. Yes they are stupid. But let it go for awhile.

    The car explodes when it hits a monarch and help in some of the miniboss events but thats it. Its like Greg on the live stream killing Pows, it wont get fixed because its fun.
    Then again it might because its fun. They seem to nerf fun here.

    Only half decent explanation for this I have seen over the last month (since beta AM3) is the major arkfall bug pursuit (which had a glitch of resetting often before shark patch).

    Although that is a half assed explanation in itself to validate such idiotic behavior, it is what some people use to justify this vehicle shenanigan. Other people who argue for the sake of it point out vehicle leveling or let them play how they like, there isn't rules, blah blah blah

    These viewpoints hold some truth, such I play this game the way I want after paying the same price. However, we can all agree there are much better methods to achieve these pursuits and skills without the expense of others time/resources/equipment when the arkfall times out.

    I was at an arkfall yesterday and some "cartard" trolled it. He drove in circles and smashed all the skitterlings so we didn't complete it. So now, I don't do the hellbug arkfalls.

    Well when sporeshot worked, the spores would damage the car too. It was obviously a bug but it did solve a problem. Oh well love them until they interfer with my mission.

    Take away the cars and these morons will still just shoot all the skitterlings. I must have seen 40+ people doing it this morning, making sure that the Arkfall didn't progress. Its amazing how many stupid people can get together in one place at the same time.

    Thats my main issue..i dont care about people driving around arkfalls.. Its almost amusing.. But when you constantly fail major arkfalls because you cant destroy a crystal within 10 minutes because all the skitterlings are being run over.. Its a joke..

    I think for the most part it fun for the first few times, then you get tired of it and join in the ground fight. I do both depending on the situation. I will initially go in with the car till destroyed and then fight. That just my tactic.

    Yup, I have personally started avoiding arkfalls with these 'cartards' present. I guess for those people on the lines of "stop qq just stop playing" they are getting their wish.

    I encourage others to follow suit and maybe down the line with the lack of arkfall participation and dwindling server numbers, people who try to defend this asinine behavior will be able to enjoy a QQ free environment to drive around in circles.

    edit: I also wouldnt bank on a fix to this behavior from Trion anytime soon. With the rate things are going, we will have in game cash store banners rolling across the middle of your screen before your car explodes getting into an arkfall.

    To all you tools saying your getting your pursuits or kills and it "doesent matter"....

    The only reason you think that, is because you are NOT good at the game. We should ALL fail an arkfall, so YOU can get your pursuit? For real? Go **** off somewhere else and do it, why are you going to do it in the ONLY spot it hinders people? Your either a **** or dont understand (STILL??) how the game works.

    SMH see he doesnt even realize why what hes doing is wrong - if you drive your tardmobile around killing all the little bugs you will fail the ark - they need to live to bite the crystal -

    Some arkfalls have random junk around them to stop the vehicles and provide cover. Maybe all of them need that.

    I think they should make it to where when you're in the actual arkfall's radius (the small circle within the big one) your vehicle should blow up, much like it does when you drive in the middle of the area where the matron spawns.

    That may be true, but at least I will be getting drops from the enemies I shoot, which I don't if someone splats them all with their vehicle.

    I think what they should do is this: The more bugs you run over the more your screen gets covered in bug guts til you can't see a damn thing and have to find a car wash. Just like real life.

    Some of you children will eventually learn an important lesson, and that is while you may think it's smart to abuse the system for your own gain (or to intentionally piss everyone else off), it's not wise to do it to the point where you bring notice to yourself.

    Just sayin...

    That would be true but for two things; 1) you can't usually tell who the person even is in the vehicle and 2) the social system in the game doesn't really allow for any societal feedback against the culprits.

    This is one of my biggest gripes in the game at the moment. The sad part about it is that it's not even a good way to do things... there are easier ways to get the pursuits, and you don't do enough damage or kills to top people just playing as they should for the arkfall. There's literally no reason for someone to do it other than to troll the other people at the event.

    Though I agree, maybe forcing vehical despawn in Arkfalls would be great,
