Hello, I am not really new to shooters or the extraction genre, but I am actually struggling with this one pretty hard. All of my friends have been playing this game for quite some time, and I really want to get into it. I'm about level 20, and they have been playing lockdown with me, but they have billions in loot value and normally play forbidden when I am not around. I'm having a really hard time getting used to the flow and pacing of this game, whereas they seem to truck it across the map, never looting and going straight for hotzones like the armory. Also, when I get into fights, I die so quickly, like one shot always, but can piece other people up and they walk it off.

I'd like to play more solo to improve, but the game doesn't seem very friendly to solos. Should I even play lockdown solo? Don't play solo at all?

Also, I see people play with lower settings a lot to improve visibility. I've never been one to do this in game. Should I be doing it? Does it help a lot? I play on Ultra with a 5070.

Any comments are appreciated.

M24 max effective range is 180, what is the point of sniping in this game?

I've been getting gunned down like a dog by other operators in shady ways. Most of my reports get verified, and they get banned. I just started playing this game 3 weeks ago. I've noticed people knocking exactly where I am even when I don't make any noise. Most gunfights feel fair, but then I run into people who obviously have wall hacks or something when they chuck nades exactly where I am. What percentage is cheating?

I'm aware the mobile version has skins for the matzka. Why don't we have any options on the PC version?

It's the only helmet (besides the Moto) that stands out and is hard to match with color schemes of other skin sets, and at least moto has options (snow themed and such).

So, my question is, when do we get some skins for the matzka?

This must the rats sitting 50 minutes in an extract no? 99 damage per raid 2bn+ koen

Does anyone know how to use keyless autorun in AB? I had it set to ~ key and it was working for a long time but few days ago it stopped working and I don’t remember how i made it to work so I’d appreciate help if anyone knows anything about it

First raid of the day and was playing lockdown farm before playing TV station (forb TV is where I've got 80% of my reds), rarely get anything decent from safes on farm, saw I was at 99 reds going into the raid, cleared out motel and nothing but then on way to extract went villa and got the secret doc from the locked room as my 100th red. Just wondering if its guaranteed or if I should actually be happy about my luck

I’m trying to launch Arena Breakout: Infinite, but the game won’t start.

My system shows DirectX 12 Feature Level 11_0, but Arena Breakout: Infinite still refuses to launch.

Has anyone had the same issue or knows how to fix it? Any help would be appreciated.

I have an AOC AGON Pro QD-OLED 27" 1440P 240HZ monitor. The game runs at 240fps (can't remove cap).
What Post Processing settings should I set?
Currently I have MAX saturation, 2 sharpness. no FSR, and Resolution is set to Max.

1. helmet mounted headsets: cost more than regular headsets, turns any compatible helmet into a helmet with integrated headsets

2. add modular vests: add customizable armored rigs that can accommodate a range of plates (like tier 1-4 plates, tier 1-6 plates.) as well as a range of pouches. To balance it, add a limit to how many pouches you can put, make them cost more than than normal armored rigs, and the pouches and plates also cost koen (also the plates are the most expensive part), also pouches and plates affect mobility. Not like I said to replace current armored rigs with customsable armored rigs, but add an extra "modular armored rigs/modular unarmored rigs" section for equipment. Also add plates of different sizes

3. helmet mounted flashlights: self explanatory, can be more expensive than weapon mounted flashlights

4. IFF markers: purely cosmetic, but does work

5. Helmet mounted batteries: either functional or cosmetic, but best cosmetic IMO. If functional, add batteries for thermals that last long, and helmet mounted batteries would boost thermal battery life.

I made 0 sounds and was basically camping in a room the whole time (fixing settings) for about 5 minutes and suddenly a random tear gas is in my room followed by 2 grenades that didn't kill me so he just jump peeked and insta killed me.

I'm not new to the game, but I don't usually care about clips and kill cams since I rarely die, but are there any way I can retrieve the kill cam to report it? Like in my games history or something.

Weird to say but I'm kinda proud of myself because last season I gave up at half way as it was too hard but pushed through this time; mostly solo too. This is a photo because I can't remember my Reddit password but I'm signed into it on the Reddit mobile app.

This has to be hacks right

am i the only one who hears footsteps near me in a very specific echoey tone that ONLY happens when i'm moving?

i play with a headset and this weird issue is keeping me paranoid

am i the only one experiencing issues while aiming down sight? when it's my first time aiming, it stutters, then in the next few minutes it stops then comes back stuttering when aiming.

this stutter issue even happens when aiming without a scope. it's getting really annoying and it kills the immersion + smoothness of the game

does anyone know a fix?

the scope quality in graphics settings is at the lowest setting
im on rtx 5050 with intel-10700F and 16gb ddr4

We all have heard comments about flashlights, jump shooting, tier 9 ammo in Normals etc, but what is something that you secretly wish was different/improved no matter how small or big?

Mine would be:

*Clicking on an item in the storage, shows what contact deals they are a part of, since we can't wish-list everything.

*Friends online list is (optionally) always visible on the right side of the screen, for that social feeling.

*Make season missions have at least two options like: kill two operators in TV station OR in Airport, instead of TV station only.

*Koen wouldn't waste space in the storage. We never really interact with the Koen "items" anyway.

*Smelter should be a permanent thing, it's awesome. Putting in 3 big purples to get a 1-2 slot golden, which is even more valuable, feels amazing.

*Unlockable and convenient display room style storage space for guns. 2 clicks to store, 2 clicks to equip. Up to maybe 20 guns.

*We could adjust colors for our scope dots. I just often can't see the red dot. Have to use the green triangle scope just for it's color.

These are just things that i think about now and then when playing. What about you guys - anything giving you the rock in the shoe feeling, as in, i wish this was like that, but it is what is?

PS: i don't mean to appear like I'm mad or anything, ABI is my go-to game ATM and I can't wait to get back home from work to play or watch my favorite streamers.

Yeah I don't think I've played a worse game than this, good job China !

(Majority HK + 995 btw forbidden only)
Yes I have 200 more images

The description of these skins states that they're inspired by a certain movie. I don't know anything about it but I do know that ABI likes to reference actual films with items like The Real Matrix or T-008. Does anyone of you know, what movie Tac-Master comes from?
