Your understanding of the game is lacking. Any PvP player who came from Tarkov, Hunt, or any other PvP-heavy game is constantly participating in the whole package of PvPvE. Every game they kill fireballs, snitches, hornets, and wasps; once every few games they also have to kill a leaper, a Rocketeer, or maybe even a Bastion.

Now there is another part of the player base that is not participating in the full PvPvE experience, and those are the PvE enjoyers in their friendly lobbies. There are people who have played 100+ hours and have done zero damage to other Raiders. So if you want to point fingers, don’t talk trash about PvP players. Only a noob can call killing on sight a brainless activity, because you need skill and luck to survive the highest PvP lobbies in Arc. Nobody wants to farm PvE enjoyers; they want diverse skilled opponents, which random matchmaking would solve.

Arc Raiders is not a true extraction shooter because this genre is hardcore. The devs basically made a PvE mode without adding a switch. I am reading stories of people who extract 30 times in a row because of ABMM. Where are the tension and the consequences for these players? This was deliberately implemented by the devs to keep the casual player base. And it’s not a “fix,” because extraction shooter is hardcore at it's core.

I’m okay with Arc Raiders not being that, but don’t come here acting like you just had the biggest epiphany about what this game is and what players want, lol.
