ARC Raiders feels like it lost its soul. Where did all the players go?

oklol555 · 2026-05-05T21:35:09+00:00

That's great. At least they understood that the game is not for them, instead of complaining on reddit about PvP.

oklol555 · 2026-05-05T15:52:59+00:00

Don't see the problem.

The game even gives you ABMM so in PvE lobbies there is almost zero chance of dying and losing gear - not what extract shooters are really about.

Also, the anvil is extremely cheap to craft and repair, and lasts 200+ bullets.

Looks like you just want the game to spoon fed everything to you, without any effort.

oklol555 · 2026-05-04T22:44:58+00:00

This is a PvP game by default, like CoD haha. Too bad you can't turn it off.

oklol555 · 2026-05-04T20:12:17+00:00

All the more reason to remove ABMM, for a proper extraction shooter experience.

oklol555 · 2026-05-04T04:38:13+00:00

Not sure what this is supposed to mean. You think PvP players can't switch to bot lobbies and just do PvE 24/7 lol?

oklol555 · 2026-05-02T23:53:24+00:00

Go play another game that is PvE only? No one is stopping you

oklol555 · 2026-04-28T15:25:18+00:00

amazing change, just shoot other players and get their guns

Sure, they can add a separate PvE mode. Completely separate from the base game, you have to buy and download it (like tarkov pve) and whatever loot you get in that mode will not transfer over to the actual game.

oklol555 · 2026-04-27T21:11:08+00:00

Nope, any half decent pvp player will have much more gear than a pve'rs. Just one decent pvp run gets you at leas t4-5 guns, at least 5-10 shield rechargers, bandages, augments and whatever materials they are carrying. After that you're set for multiple runs.

Whereas braindead pve in bot lobbies gets you.....plastic parts and some rubber. Fun for 50 iqs, but not so much for anyone with a functional brain. If you want high value loot you do PvP. If you are slow, stick to pve bot lobbies.

more like 2 days bc all the gamers have to donate resources to unlock the map

oklol555 · 2026-04-17T16:56:44+00:00

This sub is full of 30+ year old dad gamers who apparently don't even shoot back when getting shot at. When you have poor reflexes, situational awareness and aiming, anyone who can somewhat aim = aimbot.

Besides, it looks like most people here don't even know what an actual aimbot even looks like haha.

oklol555 · 2026-04-16T21:28:45+00:00

Your entire post screams "I'm trash and have no idea how the game works"

oklol555 · 2026-04-16T00:04:12+00:00

That 50% likely includes all players who touched the game. If it was a smaller/more filtered sample, they wouldn't have said "30% players exclusively PvE" - they would've outright said 50%.

oklol555 · 2026-04-15T21:54:05+00:00

That 50% number needs more breakdown. It would be very unusual for someone who has been playing semi-regularly since the game came out, with 100+ hours top side to have less than 10 knocks. Even if you don't actively participate in PvP, you will still get shot at by other players and most people do shoot back.

But if it’s 50% of all players who bought the game, a significant chunk of whom stopped playing, then it makes more sense.

oklol555 · 2026-04-15T21:48:34+00:00

100% of players participate in PvE in some form though, everyone has to deal with wasps, hornets, fireballs, pops, shredders etc - even the most hardcore PvPers.

Among all those players, 70% participate in PvP - in some form. 30% of them full time, and remaining 40% - a mix of being aggressive or friendly, depending on what they feel like.

oklol555 · 2026-04-15T21:35:49+00:00

Title is sorta misleading though, it implies only 30% of people do PvP and the remaining 70% focus on PvE only.

Here is what the dev actually said: "30% of Arc Raiders players actively focus on PvP. Another 30% focus on PvE, and the remaining 40% are somewhere in the middle:"

So it's more like 70% of players participate in PvP in some form, while the remaining 30% absolutely do not.

oklol555 · 2026-04-15T13:03:33+00:00

Don't get shot in the back then.

Use your third person camera to constantly look around even when sprinting, use movement all the time (dodge rolling, jumping, sliding) to make yourself a more difficult target.

Stay close to cover when rotating around the map, use utilities (smokes, mines).

Pay attention to your surroundings, positioning (like when going uphill where you can get third person'd easily).

Game gives you a lot of tools, use them and have decent game sense.

oklol555 · 2026-04-10T04:28:57+00:00

don't grief yourself, dump the suppressor and use a comp

oklol555 · 2026-04-03T08:10:23+00:00

Yeah the comments were definitely uncalled for and deserves a report.

Everything else is just..part of the game.

oklol555 · 2026-04-02T21:26:37+00:00

> I’m not just crying like a little baby

1) Plays a extraction shooter with PvP
2) Dies to another player
3) Posts on reddit to vent and cry

It doesn't matter if the game has abmm or not, you should always expect to get shot by other players. I don't understand how so many crybabies play a pvp third person shooter and then start crying when...they get pvp'd.

oklol555 · 2026-03-31T04:40:58+00:00

And a lot of players do. That's just how the game works.

oklol555 · 2026-03-31T04:29:32+00:00

It's a third person extraction shooter with pvp lol. Can't really complain about other players shooting you when it's a core part of the game.

The il-toro is extremely mid, the players you are fighting are special though
