And, with both the Expedition and the Trials season complete, I have completed all my personal goals in ARC Raiders, so I believe I'm done playing it for at least a while! 
Feeling ambivalent about the game as a whole, need to ponder some more before posting a review 
After 250+ hours only playing friendly I decided to spice up my #ArcRaiders runs.
PVP is decided with a 1d6.
1-3: No PVP (initiating)
1. Always disengage (run)
2. Either run or fight after getting shot (situational)
3. Always fight aggression with aggression (mirror)
4-6: PVP Forced
4. Warn people away, no chasing (initiate)
5. No warning (situational)
6. PVP is the mission (use all advantages)
PVP is never a backstab by faking friendly.
Would you ever roll this playstyle? Why or why not?
If you're repairing, upgrading anything in #ArcRaiders for the upcoming expedition, don't bother. Just sell the component instead. Every repair and upgrade path I've tested loses you money. Examples:
Jupiter = $27,500; crafting resources = $37,500; -$10,000 crafting
Hullcracker = $10,000 LVL1; LVL1 crafting resources = $10,350, -$350 crafting, -$1,300 upgrading to LVL4
3/3 Hardcores hit 5M easy, dominate points/stash system. Long-term? They steamroll casual raids with even more edge. I was looking forward to experimenting will all the gear I amassed after seeing the expedition details, instead it will continue to sit in the inventory and not be used.
Devs, fix for us normies! Who's pink-farming rn? Who's out?

2/3 Nope. Game pitched as casual, but this rewards hardcore grinders farming PvP kills for the goop.
Use gear and die? Lose it, stay broke.
Now? Stop using best stuff, sell everything to scrape 5M before Dec 17 window? Or skip & get perma-edge'd? 😩
🧵1/3 #ArcRaiders devs just confirmed my worse fears: The HOARDING META for expedition!
Need 5M coins + stash value for max 5 skill points on your fresh Raider.
After 267 HOURS, I've got ~1.5M total (gear and credits). Was burning cash on traders, using mediocre gear—saving top weapons thinking it'd be casual-friendly!
There's a guy going around #ArcRaiders playing as a photographer, I love it. This game is so much fun.
Perhaps third times' the charm. Thanks FriendlyRaider for letting me know about turning off crossplay and setting region settings. Hearts' still racing from the 25 adrenaline I brought topside.
My first attempt was ended by some thirsty vampire claiming I wanted to fight them. "You want to fight me?" No opportunist, you shot first from my Baron breach, I hid and tried to protect myself. You chased. You won. Thank you, good job, feel superior? Not the way I play or interact. #ArcRaiders
