New to Sand Raiders of the Sophie, how does the extraction part actually work?

just picked this up after seeing it on a stream and i’m lost lol. i get that it’s an extraction shooter in a desert but what’s the actual loop? you go out, grab stuff, then what? and what is the giant walking fortress thing for, is that my base or a vehicle or both

both pretty much. the mech fortress is your mobile base and your transport. you roam the desert in it, gather resources, raid ruins, fight other raiders, then you need to get out with what you found. the getting out part is the extraction bit

so rust + sea of thieves + tarkov. got it. what could go wrong

u/dustbowl_dan·2 months ago

ok so if i die out there do i lose the stuff i was carrying? that’s usually how these go right

u/nomad_kei·2 months ago

that’s how the genre usually works yeah, but check the in game tooltips for the exact rules so you don’t take my word on edge cases. i don’t wanna tell you wrong and you cry over a lost gun lol

unpopular opinion but solo is rough in this one. other raiders show up at the worst moments and you have nobody watching your back while you loot. find even one friend and it feels like a different game

tom plays solo every night and complains every night, he’s a loyal customer of pain

i hate that this is accurate
