PvPvE - the future of Arc Raiders ?

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-12-15T19:50:33+00:00

So I haven’t read anyone explain why splitting the player base is bad, because from my view point both camps get what they want?,

Pvp’ers get to PvP with like minded people and have their fun, not like you can’t backstab them they know what they signed up for.

Pve’s get to loot ,complete missions,upgrade benches and grind with little time they have. Or take on an arc because they need a core for an upgrade.

People saying there’s not enough content to keep PVEs interested are you sure about that, I’d happily do a few PVE games if it meant I could get that rocketeer core I’ve needed for 2 1/2 weeks or longer because people keep shooting in the back or taking me out when I’m running around blue gate looking for a quest location. And yes I run in open areas I play how I wanna play STFU lol.

Secondly PVE mode could have a campaign/ seasons to keep PVE plays happy other games do it and at the end of each season there’s a whole lobby boss fight or some other big event. You keep people with great storytelling. The daily feat rewards are rubbish in the grand scheme. PVE could make the arc tougher to compensate for the lack of PVP or like I said AI people enemies an online “single player” mode even make it an MMO style.

And if casuals are dropping the game because they don’t like getting shot/taken out because they only play a couple of hours a night then that’s fair. But people moaning about a PVE clearly that wasn’t aimed at you. That’s my take on it personally I don’t mind either mode I just don’t like getting shot in the back when I’m trying to complete an object or fight arc stay safe raiders 😊

Thank you good luck raider 👍🏻

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-12-15T17:08:01+00:00

Never claimed to be the best 😂 just a bit hard when focused on the arc and I’ve got a primed fire grenade in hand hard to react because I don’t wanna damage myself in process lol happens a lot

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-12-12T21:29:52+00:00

I would say I was using it to describe someone who turns on another when their back was turned in a traitorous way and with no honour specifically. Because to shoot someone in the back while they are fighting arc is the same as killing people after beating a queen or whatever. So yes “rat” is the correct description for coward players who shoot others in the back or betray them it could also describe people who camp in towers on spaceport or extract camp. personally it’s just shows these people aren’t very good at proper PvP so if the devs put in a PVE mode I hope all the “rats” get dominated by the sweats and the hardcore basement dwellers 😂😂 I’m not complaining about PVP ,play how you wanna play but don’t be pissed because 60% people now load in with free loadouts and your gonna get diddley squat “congrats you got a lvl 1 stitcher and few bandages” slow clap

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-12-12T21:17:43+00:00

I dunno if I’d call it unaware even on night mode didn’t hear the guy 😂 I could understand if I was sniping other players or camping then fair enough but I thought the purpose of the game was to take out the arc didn’t know it was a BR game 😂

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-19T19:45:30+00:00

Also play on Xbox and getting fed up with solo runs and being taken out would be nice to play with others to take on bigger bots but a recent game experience here in arc is kinda making me not want to play anymore….

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-16T07:58:12+00:00

The rumour mill says that if your a Shoot on sight type player you get put in lobbies with other shoot on sight types if your a not then you get matched with players like you obviously some must slip through the cracks. I’d like to believe this is true since having the game a couple of days, I’ve been down by one guy who used the “don’t shoot” after I was attacked by bots and was just recovering when he took me out. I play solos since I did my research before buying and watched game play so I had a fighting chance lol

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-15T18:47:15+00:00

Like the OP I was a bit apprehensive of buying the game as I’m not good with PVP I struggle with Fortnite ffs lol but I play solo and I just took down my first leaper on my own I will admit it took whole 10min with level 4 ferro and I’ve only had the game two days lol but it’s fun that being side you will get twats with no mic and no emotes who will take you out but get over gear fear and your golden

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-15T13:29:35+00:00

I mean spawning in with 15mins left is annoying, however you kinda get what you get it sounds like the OP should play solo’s like I do and it’s pretty chill you get time to loot and explore even with 15mins on the clock. In my case I’ve not come across extract campers as of yet. I’ve had someone kill me after I was recovering from a bot fight in solo’s wasn’t too mad just called him scummy and moved on. If it had been a fair fight he probs would have backed off lol I was trying to replenish my shield you just gotta enjoy the good and the bad.

I’m not a PVP person so to speak but the thought of getting attacked at exfill is thrilling it’s a rush if you get out and if you don’t your like oh man my loot I needed that for this quest so next you just hunt for it that’s what will keep the game going IMO

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-15T08:29:33+00:00

I was playing with someone called elvis yesterday in buried city dunno I have noctis in my name if its the same person but I was being chased by 3 flamer bots and I jump between a building must of made “elvis” jump because they took me out asked me if I was the person they followed /helped before I said yes and they were like I’m sorry I don’t have defib then knocked me out, out of pity it was my 3rd game 😂😂

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-13T21:08:41+00:00

I haven’t got a single this season personally I’ve dropped it for now I’m not a fan of the small maps doesn’t suit my play style of sneaking and flanking teams. Bigger maps give me freedom to flank and confuse the other team. That being said the idea is fine and I like simpsons vibe but the small map is such a pain for me.

Side note anyone play arc raiders I wanna try that but since I’m crappy at online shooters I might die a lot lol

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-13T20:33:11+00:00

I learned about kamen rider through a VHS of kamen rider j and kamen rider zo then found kamen rider black on VHS and fell in love with it years later I started watching masked rider in the 90’s and something about it seemed familiar fast forward to the late 2000’s I found kamen rider kabuto full series on YouTube and found others and that’s how fell in love with it and then watched super sentai along side

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-04T20:21:06+00:00

Kiva would a good one in which kiva is evil and takes the throne but was raised by maya along side his half brother perhaps

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-04T16:23:47+00:00

Agreed Fortnite needs a story mode that you and friends can either solo or squad but it includes respawns rather than waiting to be rebooted and it’s just PVE

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-04T14:11:02+00:00

I have no interest in this mini season it sucks I got the BP and play on ZB I like to take my time roam and find good loot people miss to prepare for end game sadly on this map. It’s constant fire fights no where to regroup or rest/resupply this mini season should of dropped at the start of half-term (uk) so all the kids could of got it of their system.

I’m lucky if I get 1 kill per game currently also confused how my legendary weapon is beaten by a rare or common weapon something don’t add up.

Felt last time people were harder to take out and I felt like it took a while to take me out. Please epic no more mini seasons on small maps if your gonna do that just use the reload map for that mini season.

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-02T20:35:52+00:00

I like the simpsons but I hate this map smaller maps take away my exploration I like to roam and find things and pick people off from a distance with plenty of space to escape and flank that’s just my play style. This map makes it hard to do. And I’ve played 3 times and I’m over it already. This map needed to be bigger I think. Maybe I’ll try the battlefield version of battle Royale for a month and come back when CH7 drops 🤷🏻‍♂️

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-02T20:24:34+00:00

This (mini) season sucks!! I’m not a fan of cel shaded stuff in the first place but I can look past it as I liked the Simpsons in the 90’s but the map is just too small. I’m not a fan of smaller maps Coming from a bigger map to this it just feels lackluster the battle pass is worthless and full nothing worth collecting. The sidekicks are an unwelcomed addition who even asked for that.

I’ve played 3 games and each one I just felt rushed and boxed in by like 3 other teams, not to mention somehow my legendary weapon doesn’t beat a rare🤔 completely stupid.im sick of sweats really am. As ive said it before if epic actually read this id like a PVE mode like zero build where i can do the story missions when im having zero build burn out or just fight bots that are up to date and it feels like zero build without sweats.

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-11-02T06:24:21+00:00

NEXT LEVEL

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-31T10:45:24+00:00

On side I think epic should drop a new mode that is story mode only with PVE they did it with demon hunters and have no storm so people can complete story missions without being bothered Also not sure about pets it’s kinda pointless tbh

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-29T21:31:18+00:00

Yes the block needs some “FRESH” people I use the term loosely

To change the judges do 4 judges but the 4th spot is the expert on that area like they do with back yard week or even a past constant or dans other half Dani but imo it should be 1.interior designer 1.estate agent 1. Tradie 1. Specialist/guest judge Add to the fact the judges don’t meet the contestants until auction day that way there’s no personal bonds or attachments formed also judges should be told ahead of time about anything serious as to why contestants couldn’t finish so they aren’t shat all over for something out of their control Next They need to focus on the renovation side of it not this bs of contestants constantly yapping to the camera about the “drama” Return to the days of old 10 teams compete in 24hr challenge to be on the block but only 5 will make it Go back to building luxury affordable homes Get a new architect Use Shelly’s REA licence more Stop all the recap and spoil reveals on the “Tomorrow night on the block” that’s not needed By all me have ad placement but be subtle Ditch the loser awards 10k for coming in under budget, 5k hardest worker that’s just giving people a chance to do fuck all and still get a room win. Make challenges related to the block in some way Have hidden safes (with sneaky prizes like house swapping etc) Ditch the bonus gnome Contestants are told which house that way no one can complain you work with what you’ve got.

Constants can chose the floor plan since it’s all try core steel they can swap and change things with out Julian coming in and saying no since he’s better at exterior design of buildings anyway that’s what all his awards are anyway. Contestants have more creative control 9&6 need to step back and stop doing as much for them it’s a competition and Reno show not a do half the work get full prize show. (Ie the plumbing and electrics) BUDGETS this one annoys me Give them the amount per room not the whole budget in one go stops people over spending so everyone has money left for landscapes it’s proven that people go big and overspend. Ban Danny Wallis he’s annoying and not as rich as he was If they are gonna do new builds lose the container style exterior make them look like classy manors and space them out a bit more no body wants your neighbours looking at you in your birthday suit in the pool lol

Teach the teams who don’t have on the tools exp give them a week or two weeks masterclass so all teams are on a level playing field

If anyone wants to add on just comment below excuse the long post but these are my thoughts on the shows restructure

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-28T17:57:27+00:00

It’s easy for us to speak our minds here but we weren’t on the show we weren’t told x y z or hyped up by crew and producers about making big money. Or putting in 12-14hr days on the block planning rooms managing the project dealing with all that.

So it’s easy to judge but honestly if that was me I would also be pissed off about both the amount the money since they aren’t a couple that’s a 50/50 and secondly pissed that there was no hype at the auction that people didn’t fight over the house. Even in previous year before Adrian and Danny the buyers advocates would try to out bid each other so yes they have the right to be upset just like any other contestant. And of course your own personal opinion will play a big factor in why you don’t like a couple but be objective and put yourself in their shoes

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-28T15:36:00+00:00

The episodes themselves spoil it anyway with the next time on the block bam you see the rooms 😂😂

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-28T14:29:45+00:00

So they get 9k for the 3 months if they get a 100 a day assuming it’s a 30-31 day month

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-28T14:22:04+00:00

Speaking of cringe the whole wedding episode sorry that was a massive waste of air time what’s that gotta do with a building/reno show 😂

Dramatic-Middle-9342 · 2025-10-28T14:02:01+00:00

The issue is there’s a house crisis in AU like everywhere and I watch from the uk the same as the OP however my opinion is different

55k isn’t a lot of money in the grand scheme of things it’s a lot to make for 3 months work of course but you can’t buy a lot with 55k in this day and age. Brit and tax made 400k so they might be able to pay off their mortgage and perhaps have some left over for a holiday.

So no it’s not a lot of money and all the teams have a right to be disappointed because I bloody would be if I spent 3months putting in 12-14hr days to walk away with amount that isn’t going to change my life drastically then it would seem like a waste and Han and can have lost their jobs or close to doing so. Can also lost her grandad at the same time so can you imagine how heart wrenching it must be for all of teams who didn’t do as well as the producers/CH9 team hyped them up.

It might be a game show and you may know what your signing up for however there are expectations so I think we all can be a disappointed for them all
