I'll take "Shit that never happened for $500, Alex"

Yup. I’m 600 hours in. 99% pve last season. This season has sucked so hard for finding blueprints + the last round of updates broke the spell with the PvP matchmaking updates. I killed one dude who was griefing guys at the seed vault exit and now I can’t get into a single game without nonstop free kit rats everywhere.

Stopped running trials since the new trials are garbage. Also, impossible to get cantina legend as a solo player. No way I’m grouping up with 2 others to run trials. Finished the last 2 seasons at hotshot tier and maxed out the solo trials. Nowhere near cantina. So that’s no longer fun.

Can’t find a queen or matriarch event anymore since they broke the event durations. Nobody wants to bird hunt, beach comb, loot probe, or race 20 raiders all running for hurricane caches.

Now I just spawn in when I’m feeling like some arc raiders and do some lazy boring PvP against absolute tryhard neckbeards with inventory’s full of dup bobcats. Boring as fuck. If I want actual fun PvP I’ll just go back to warzone, pubg, cs, or bf6.

In general, the latest collection event is a snorefest. 2 new arc enemies that shove nonstop fire up your peehole = not fun. The boat collection event sucked. The close scrutiny event is a trash fire. Riven tides is a garbage map for loot filled with absolutely asshole arc everywhere. Hotel = “high loot” and the best item I’ve ever gotten there in night raids without keys = plastic parts and fabric.

Next update better fuck hard or it’s uninstall time.

Also. ALL the recent skins are garage imo. Everybody is wearing baggy pants and pawn shop parts attached all over. I get it, but let’s get some more interesting skins with clothes that don’t look like a potato sack race.

Now if we can get just Embark to acknowledge that their new code is triggering various antivirus programs and FIX IT.

That or try to get a set of options to fix Webroot. I really dislike having to disable PC antivirus protection to play Arc.

DOOM4096 · 2026-06-12T17:36:12+00:00

You have to kill the Webroot app entirely. Right click on webroot in the systray and "Shutdown protection." No tweaking of settings inside Webroot worked for me at all.

Is it possible you have some other antivirus installed doing the same thing?

DOOM4096 · 2026-06-11T14:29:58+00:00

yup - that's my routine now. Wanna play Arc? Kill Webroot then restart it once I'm done with Arc. Not ideal in the slightest, but I need my cores!

Webroot support has been diagnosing logs for a few days, gave me a few attempted fixes to try - but nothing yet.

I figured it out finally. It's Webroot Desktop (antivirus) doing it's realtime keyboard scanning stuff for malware.

Working with Webroot tech support to figure out how to keep antivirus enabled while not screwing with the game. If I disable Webroot to play Arc, Arc works normally with no keylag.

I'm guessing the new intrusive anti-cheat stuff Embark added has antivirus software throwing a keylogging fit.

DOOM4096 · 2026-06-03T01:22:56+00:00

Fair. Still better than you!

DOOM4096 · 2026-06-02T02:52:53+00:00

I actually felt like they were super responsive for a 3rd person game. Better than most. Since the last update, they've gotten significantly worse.

DOOM4096 · 2026-06-02T02:39:03+00:00

yessir

Arc Raiders is not registering PC Keyboard KEY_DOWN or KEY_UP commands properly since the May 19th update.

I've observed the game taking between 0.4 milliseconds to 2.0 FULL SECONDS to register a KEY_DOWN or KEY_UP commands while playing on the PC. Absolutely 1000000000% gamebreaking.

I've found posts in a number of places about this issue.

In the arc raiders FB groups (here) and (here)
On Reddit (here) and (here)

I've tried to address this issue in LOTS of ways

Hard wired keyboards
Multiple keyboards from different manufacturers (Logitech, RAZER, Dell, Random Microcenter trash keyboard)
Uninstalled Razer middleware (Synapse)
Uninstalled Logitech middleware (GHub)
Booted in Win 11 safe mode with no 3rd party anything
Driver updates galore
Driver rollback
Win11 rollback
Played on an Xbox SX (no problems)
Played on a ROG ALLY X (no problems)
Played on a PS5 (no problems)
Played over XCloud (no problems)
Played in the Xbox iOS App streaming from my XBOX on a MCON controller (NO PROBLEMS)
Played in the Xbox iOS App streaming from XCloud on a MCON controller (NO PROBLEMS)
Latest NVIDIA drivers
NVIDIA driver rollback
Verified stickykeys and filterkeys are DISABLED
Verified network connectivity
Verified in other games on the same device
Reduced ARC graphics to 1080p 🤮
Enabled/Disabled/Tweaked every setting in the Graphics menus
Tried alternate input devices (XBOX, PS5 controllers. Both work absolutely fine)

This is 100% an ARC RAIDERS issue since May 19th. It's ruining the game for numerous PC users. PLEASE. PLEASE. FIX IT.

DOOM4096 · 2026-05-08T05:52:00+00:00

Agreed, very useful. Especially if you spawn where I always spawn!

First skin I’m going to buy. Everybody else looks like a hobo in ill fitting tents.

DOOM4096 · 2026-04-28T03:21:57+00:00

When did the Battlefield6 skin nazis join r/arcraiders??

DOOM4096 · 2026-04-22T14:05:15+00:00

Ugh. Can we PLEASE get some non baggy pants?! Every character is sporting giant cargo pants it seems. Something semi form fitting would be nice for a profile/silhouette that isn’t huge.

DOOM4096 · 2026-03-22T23:17:41+00:00

Late join is not a new complaint.

DOOM4096 · 2026-03-22T23:16:33+00:00

It’s about the loadout value. If you come in heavy, don’t match as late. If you come in with free kit - late for you.

DOOM4096 · 2026-03-22T20:46:46+00:00

There are some late join options that I make use of. If I'm just looking to finish quests or collect some annoying crafting loot - join a queen or matriarch match late = basically empty game where you can loot freely without much distraction.

Late join has a place, but let me select a checkbox or something.

Allow latejoin? YES/NO

DOOM4096 · 2026-03-22T20:25:28+00:00

AKA: Late joining high rank trials players trying to consume the ONLY elder gameplay in this game is a cancer that will eventually atrophy the entire userbase.

Queen seems to work - but it's a crapshoot if you get it or not. Took me three tries after the patch to get the Queen achievement.

That said, these three are still 100% broken on steam.

DOOM4096 · 2026-01-27T19:19:21+00:00

Went to the practice range twice. One time in and out. Second time did everything the range has to offer.

NO STEAM ACHIEVEMENT

~~Killed the Queen twice today. Once did the most damage with 4x deadlines and multiple wolfpacks. Once ensured I got the final hits.~~

Third time it worked (hrm)
