you can always capture forts and do the three daily PVP faction quests. No need to wait for races. Even on low level. I do these quests every day since level 20 and I have yet to encounter some PVP. Most people are nice enough to let you do the quest when you stand there capturing the fort and you are not max level yet. Everyone eats :-)
Watchtower control increase the rate of influence earned from the PVP quests. I've won the right to declare war for my company by doing one round of PVP quests during a race while dozens of other folks were busy skirmishing over the towers. If you want to scrum, fight over the towers. If you want to take territory, do PVP quests during races.
They're great. I loved it a while back and joined a couple. But all of a sudden the Marauders, which I'm part of, didn't go to races anymore. And now I'm just solo a lot getting my ass kicke. :/ sucks.
@BraidedZero Yeah we're getting a server merge this Monday, hope that'll change things! 😁 Otherwise I might choose a new server, console can start switching worlds as of Monday too. :) How's your world? Would you recommend? ^^
I have a little advice, maybe you don't know.. You should try and use the auto lock on to targets. Will make it way easier to hit your targets in the heat of the moment. If this is possible on PC ofcourse.. Thanks for the vid! Time to do some races soon.
I refuse to auto lock! I think it takes away from the spirit of PvP. Of course I understand it's like people who say using a mimic in Elden Ring is cheating or something like that, but it just feels like cheating lol
The xp seemed janky last night??? I wasn't getting any XP unless I specifically got the killing blow...albeit I am a support build and I'm a group, and we battles many and won, It did not render xp for every player we killed, though there were plenty of bags laying around. I did get 500 for the capture.
Every one of your videos, detours me from even buying this game, although I really want to try it. But with every video, I become less interested. I'm just going to go back to being depressed.
That's sad! Don't say that. It really is a fun game. Just limit your expectations lol And honestly, this video should get you excited. Races are so much fun!
If you have tried it and hate it, maybe. But even then, if you don't like PvP but want to earn PvP rewards (PvP track) this is the stuff I would recommend, not OPR or Arena.
@@BraidedZero if You hate it means you've tried it. And if You hate it and want pvp track rewards, you should run Great Cleave faction pvp missions like everyone alse.
Completely wrong you should try every part of the game a decide for yourself don't get online and tell people not to do something. You never know if this is the pvp you like rather than in other games. You are the master of your own destiny in new world go experience it for yourself
@@TheFearGrizzly mate, if you HATE new world PvP it means you have tried it already and should not force yourself to do races. But yes, I agree that if You did not try it, you at least should. On other hand EVERYONE will try it, eventyaly, because of the coconuts hunt :D
I think there is a big difference between Arena PvP, OPR PvP, open world PvP (just you out questing while flagged), CK PvP, and Faction Race PvP. My intention with this video is to encourage people to try Faction Races. Even if you tried Arena or OPR and hated it, maybe you'll like this kind of PvP. All of the different PvP modes in the game are different and just because you tried one and hated it, doesn't mean you'll hate this one.
Races are peak Dad content- Coming from a dad
Ha! I agree! Coming from a dad
I'm listening 😅

It's great to hear you're able to do that! You definitely don't need to wait for the races and even during races you may not get a chance to do quests
Yes but whats the point 😅

Good advice. I'm one of those people out fighting lol

That sucks. Find a company that does PvP and get a group together

I enjoy Arctica. Community is very active and PvP is fun. Would recommend.
I m not a pvp player but yeah races are pretty fun
The first two of the night always seem to be packed and fun. The others are a hit or miss
Are you on Arctica or however it is spelled?
Arctica. Yes!!
@@BraidedZero I am on the same server and green, lol.
Probably seen you around then
@@BraidedZero we just won Restless Shore today, so we are on the map now, lol.
Oh nice we play on the same server
Nice!!
@BraidedZero I'm still trying to get max lvl so I can start participating in everything that's happening
You can join a faction, company, and do faction races even at a lower level. So join those!!
@@BraidedZero oh shit I didn't know that I'm already in a faction and company. I'm lvl 59 rn so I ain't got much more to go
@@dylanosterhoudt9514 yep! You can do races. I would just recommend you stick with a group.
No man’s sky coming back when?
Ha! I'm not sure I'm ever going back to No Man's Sky. Wonderful game but it just isn't my thing anymore.

@@BraidedZero Yea thats what im pointing out

That's interesting. I'm sure it was just bugged out with the event or something
No i don't! I hate when playing 10v 1 .. there is no balance in Facton race. In Nysa Eu happened offen. Sp usually green dominant now all race ...
One color/company is dominating the server? Are there no wars happening?

Races were always uncontested on my old server. Some of the most boring content ever.
I'm sad to hear that! Join Arctica. They're active here
No. If you don't like PvP you should not do PvP.
