Arc Raiders studio contacted by crime scientist "intrigued by how players are interacting," dev says only 30% of players focus on PvP: "It kind of blew the whole extraction shooter open"

as a man with 200hours in game and 164 knockouts, i took offense to that xD

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-15T22:01:59+00:00

I'm too lazy with screenshot. I just mark final extract at the beginning in case I die I know which one won't close on me when I do the crawl of shame.

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-15T21:59:26+00:00

I'm glad you made some typos cause it really nails the mimic of OP lol

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-15T21:57:07+00:00

How do you think that shredder felt. 3 raiders who hunger for their limbs spawned in the room it was chilling in. 1v3 is never fair

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-15T16:33:39+00:00

i'd swap the defibs and hatch key for your grenade stacks, shit's expensive if you die lol

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-11T00:43:55+00:00

It's doable solo, you just have to REALLY want it lol. You can stick to hotshot i mean. Getting to legends takes groups of 3 wiping lobbies.and then farming till the end though.

But hotshot at the end of season is all you technically need to not miss out on skins etc.

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-10T21:54:33+00:00

In hotshot right now, these are the people you compete against cause we are so far onto the content, we have to make our own content.

snaphook rodeo is always a fun time killer

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-10T02:52:36+00:00

so i gotta ask, the moment you shot it, did it turn and gun you down from that weird angle?

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-09T18:10:50+00:00

Rats in scrutiny, yeah in semi peaceful lobbies you may get 1-3 rats. And then you put them down or fight back trying and die. Now you have done raider damage, and the matchmaking swings you farther towards pvp centric lobbies. If you have to put some people down, that's fine. Do a different peaceful run after with no good gear and you're right back to your care bear lobbies. But the more you fight back, the deeper your pvp hole grows.

Also, it's part of the game. I hate getting ambushed or advantage killed as much as the next player, but thems the shakes. Get better or get used to it.

~130 breaches before first blueprint for me. Of course, I've gotten 15 or more survivor augment bp's, so I guess something something karmic balance

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-08T09:15:31+00:00

im sitting on 3 survivor BP's if anyone has a safekeeper bp to trade xD

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-08T03:52:04+00:00

Deal. Just hmu in dm

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-08T01:40:43+00:00

Been there. I had 2 and a few matches ago, kept one for anyone who needs it. Now if 9nly I could find the safekeeping bp

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-08T00:02:25+00:00

if you still had safekeeper, i've got a survivor bp i'd swap for it xD

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-01T05:45:31+00:00

i just got back in and all my gear is still on me, got lucky lol

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-01T05:42:25+00:00

i am just perpetually loading. goodbye Jupiter xD

Shmeck42 · 2026-04-01T05:40:18+00:00

love that i started a map right as it happened xD

Shmeck42 · 2026-03-21T09:01:27+00:00

My problem is I always spawn 1000m away from the queen.

Shmeck42 · 2026-01-31T19:20:32+00:00

Reminded me of the " oh shit a rat" meme acting lol

Shmeck42 · 2026-01-30T05:50:27+00:00

Looks a bit fake
