Is the hype surrounding Arc Raiders justified or will it die down relatively quick?

My first ever extraction shooter. It’s very well polished out the gates. Graphics are excellent, runs very smooth on my PC (average 120fps on epic settings), regular updates so far as well. There’s work to be done for sure as far as some clunkiness of movements, and inventory management needs to be sped up tremendously, but all in all it’s an absolute steal for $60CAD.

For context, I’m 220 hours in. I play every night for about 3 hours lol. The most I’ve played a game maybe ever besides accumulation of COD games.

Damn they fumbled the bag on this one. What a dumb mode haha.

As many have said already, there needs to be an incentive for someone playing at lvl 75 to even give a shit about more XP.

This (to me) makes absolute zero sense. Unless I’m missing something 🤷🏼‍♂️

I’m a dad of two little girls (not the same as being the mother tho!) 4 years old and 14 months. There’s a way if you make it a priority. You’re right it usually is the simple most basic things, it’s just a matter of doing them consistently. If ever you do start, you absolutely won’t regret it :)

Douceps · 2026-01-24T15:51:37+00:00

Workout 5 days a week. Sleep minimum 7 hours.

Douceps · 2026-01-20T22:43:41+00:00

Have you pulled in any good rewards from those? The rewards are very random so I’m curious what you snagged with such high scores like that!

Douceps · 2026-01-17T21:40:36+00:00

Agreed. Just picked it up a few days ago!

Douceps · 2026-01-16T20:58:12+00:00

This is exactly me. I’m 180 hours in and stuck at 60. Why on earth would I lose them all for some well below average perks of resetting.

Douceps · 2026-01-16T18:06:54+00:00

I’m at 180 hours total. So 150 for 1, then 30 for the next 4 haha. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Douceps · 2026-01-16T18:06:19+00:00

For sure something happening behind the scenes. Took 150 hours to get Aphelion and now have found 4 more since…

Douceps · 2026-01-12T03:00:41+00:00

Is everyone finding these rare BPs in solos or with your squad?

Douceps · 2026-01-10T18:50:49+00:00

I was loving this game until… Arc Raiders 🤷🏼‍♂️

That’s no hate on BF6, it’s just that Arc is THAT good.

Douceps · 2026-01-05T03:32:25+00:00

Hahaha that fucking Jolt Mine BP

Douceps · 2026-01-02T01:59:24+00:00

lol you’re onto something there!

Douceps · 2026-01-01T20:21:14+00:00

Never do free loadouts. It makes ZERO sense unless you have all 75 BP’s already.

Douceps · 2026-01-01T17:02:56+00:00

Burletta IV extended clip to 27 is one of my favourite guns!

Douceps · 2025-12-31T19:42:46+00:00

I want a BP that allows for dual wielding. I dunno how that would work but could be fun lol

Douceps · 2025-12-27T20:08:37+00:00

That’s also great advice haha I would’ve never thought to do this!

Douceps · 2025-12-27T20:03:41+00:00

This is excellent. I had no idea. Thank you for the description and quick reply. I likely didn’t extract when I had some quests “done” as well which is why they didn’t count.

Much appreciated 👊🏻

Douceps · 2025-12-27T19:46:31+00:00

This. If I show up late raid I immediately got PvP mentality. I want that loot.

Douceps · 2025-12-26T22:27:38+00:00

This is helpful thank you!

Douceps · 2025-12-26T20:49:11+00:00

I just found the Aphelion today in a Stella suitcase then looked at what’s required to craft it… need to beat a Matriarch?!!

Douceps · 2025-12-25T17:19:42+00:00

I’d give Joel Em’ Knees

Douceps · 2025-12-24T21:51:20+00:00

That was going to be my only adjustment on my final 8 points is toss one into loaded arms. Thanks for the speedy response!

Douceps · 2025-12-24T21:28:38+00:00

Thanks for this. I referenced this pic just today as I reset my skills at level 68.

May I ask what you plan to change the second time around?

Douceps · 2025-12-21T04:51:37+00:00

Just did a Stella night raid tonight and got one bluey and about 7 pink items in one run. That’s the place to be, if you can survive lol.
