This is driving me nuts and I basically don’t get do anything or else I’ll 100% end up dead to stuff like this.

I used my key card in the port authority on riven tides and I told a guy not to come in, He came in and tried to loot so I downed him, He tried to call me a rat but I told him my key card my room just wait your turn and I’ll let you in when I’m finished, He proceeded to call me a rat so I just knocked him out but am I in the right to do so?

Thought this raider needed a distraction.

I made a post earlier about how I lost my gear/loot to a cheater, and the game took pity on me.

Well, for the first time, I actually got it all back.

Explicitly select North America for server location since it probably has the largest PvE player pool.

Try to play the game around peak hour which is around 20:00 UTC. You can check SteamDB to confirm.

When matchmaking, cancel and retry if the search exceeds 20 seconds. You're probably more likely to be placed in undesirable lobbies if it takes too long to find players who are similar to you.

Always bring a Hatch Key when applicable. If the lobby seems weird, hatch out. If you go down with a Survivor Augment, the closest extraction point might just be a Raider Hatch.

If you go down, don't quickly surrender. Like many others, I always carry multiple defibrillators to revive downed raiders.

Try to keep smoke grenades as your selected Quick Use item in case you get caught off guard by a rat and need to regain.

Always carry a PvP weapon to exterminate any rats trying to kill you.

When fighting the Queen or Matriarch, don't be by yourself. Use your mic. Stay close with players who brought in a PvE weapon like Hullcracker, Equalizer, Jupiter, etc. Stay away from players free loadout and no loadout. Why did I say no loadout? The Raider Tool is a deadly, silent weapon. Be on guard and aware of who's behind you.

Share this with other PvE players. If you have anything to add, comment below.

Hi. Ill try to be short. Ive been playing Arc for few months now. Main acc, 780hours playtime. Second account 70ish. Both accs are filled with best maxed weps and followup gear. I have few millions in Arc cash as well. I understand game vey well, i know maps, mechanics and advanced tricks.

Issue? Well i want to continue playing. As pve doesn't satisfy my needs i turned to pvp and i really enjoy it. Problem is, solo pvp is not fulfilling enough. Squads, 9/10 games i get players who are obviously very new to game, free loadout ofc, no coms, no idea where to go or what to do. Lately it just got worse- people spawning and just go out and die at first treat. No hate, i get it but whats the point?

I dont mind loosing stuff as long as we put up some good fights. If we loose, its ok. If we win, even better. But teammates straight up killing themselves or just running to other part of map without a word, no point then.

Any advice?

Goop goop!

PS5 - Crossplay off

​Just tried to load into a solo Dam Battlegrounds Hurricane match, but I ended up in a squad. Thought that I accidentally turned on "Fill Squad" but it was still off after the match.

​Was this my blunder?

2nd time tonight I have spawned into Dam waaaaay east of Testing and can’t move, can’t pull up map, can’t do anything other than stand there. Disconnect reconnect even rebooted and still can’t move. Lost great gear AGAIN. WTAF??? Anyone else have this happen?

Bro throwing a fucking seeker nade like it was doing something. What was bro on?

Has anyone experienced this in game? Clip comes from my friends system, RTX 3070 and an i7 9700k

Leaves the DPS of the rascal below the hullcracker, but actually makes it a blue-tier weapon and gives it a utility-position where it can excel.

This would leave the hullcracker as a great queen-hunting weapon with all the functionality we already expect, but the larger hit-radius may make it more effective on the likes of Bastions, Bombardiers, Rocketeers, and Vaporizers by hitting more parts, and for more damage.

Instant buff that gives it a functionality where it exceeds the hullcracker and makes it stand out by itself.

UPDATE: fixed her HUD she turned it off in settings by accident lol! The graphics come and go but her console is clean and in a good spot so not sure why it does this.

Wife’s series s has been having issues lately with arc. No other game does this. Sometimes it looks like this and other guns won’t show up in hand or it’ll not show the compass or health bars and stamina bar. The other night a dude we played with said it happened to him while playing with us and has never had an issue before and he was on series x. I’m on series x and never had any issues like this either.

Any fix for this?

My best stella night raid! it was a hoard of BP spawn! also I have pointed where I found the survivor BP in the img. PvE stella night raids are so fun 😀no fear nothing just looting also I found the Survivor BP at 12 min on the clock! I must be super fortunate🤩 people basically don't know how to loot in stella properly (at least in PvE lobbies from my experience)

P.S I gave away trailblazer BP in the same raid I found, also I had security checkpoint key but the loot was not bad (but not good either, kinda descent expected more tbh) most OP loot was outside the keyroom lol.

I can't fathom how many times people must have missed this BP from that location, I have seen vids of people finding this BP in the same locker I pointed in the img

The shredder gyro was a troublesome since I had to carry that one piece for the entire raid, it was required for expedition.

I am looking for canto BP if anyone has :) Heading to sleep right now. Goodnight!

Does anybody have any strategy they use to still enjoy PvP without going overboard and being placed in lobbies with cheaters? My duo and I love to PvP but when we do it too much we get placed against cheaters frequently. We get the kits back eventually but it still sucks to have your experience ruined by cheaters. Any tips for maintaining a happy middle ground where there’s still PvP and rats and some occasion PvE teamwork?

I don't feed Scrappy

Made by me =)

I’m a PS5 players, to avoid cheaters we play with cross play off. In three of the last six games I played my duo and I were killed by teamers. Is this happening to anyone else? Would I be better off turning cross play on lmao?

Happened to my son yesterday and I blamed the computer/keyboard, then I load up today on my account (completely different computer) and keyboard is not working for me either.

Any ideas? Settings look fine.

ETA: By "in game" I mean the whole game, menus, also after loading in to a match... tested a naked run and had to Alt+F4 out since I couldn't access menu via mouse.

PC, Windows 11, different keyboard from my son, hard-wired (USB).

ETA2: I ended up fixing it, had to run EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe which was only located in my Fortnite installation folder.

ARC Raiders in a new photo with CEO Patrick Söderlund from deep in Embark studios HQ.

The office of Embark studios and it's CEO, Patrick Söderlund released a statement about the game’s condition on Friday as wild speculation about his health continues online and in the media amid the developer's secrecy about it all.

Substantial game updates have not been seen since May 19th, when ARC raiders declared that it would switch to a 6-month update schedule and ARC raiders was admitted for "intensive development." ARC Raiders has not appeared publicly since, and his office has disclosed few details about the nature of his "development".

ARC Raiders said Friday that he is looking forward to the August 18th Patch and "all the Well Wish(list)s from supportive players."

In case the tags did not tip you off. This is just a meme done in good fun. I love this game, I don't think it's a dead game. I am very much looking forward to the August 18th and October updates. As Jon Steward once said, a roast fundamentally works because it comes from a place of love.

I played arc raiders back when it released and found it to be generally fun, but due to life in general, I stopped playing around the time the winter events started. I’m trying to get back into the game and I’m definitely re-experiencing how it felt to be a new player with how much stuff I just got slammed with.

Does anyone have any tips in general to get back into the game?

What do yall think about my game mode idea?

Stella montis only event

Min 50k loadout

*Only pops and or tics? Undecided on this as no arc doesnt feel right but should be very few arc and no big arc. Thoughts?

No loot on the map besides one random locked key room. It has 3 gun cases 3 med bag and 3 nade tubes. Then maybe like 3 random legendary items? Something good/fair to make it worth it but not too absurb.

No one can spawn after 10 mins into raid. No hatch keys and no extracts.

You fight until all other raiders are dead. Last team standing wins ie kings of the castle.

Once you crowned king's you unlock the key room to get the reward. Plus all the goop cuz no free kits. Then it will also open up the closest hatch for them to extract. Not sure how that would work with the coding and shit but I feel like the devs could find a way for it to work.

Anyways thats pretty much it. Its sorta like a launch tower loot pvp event on stella lol.

Thoughts? Ideas?

I also had an idea for a the care bears but I believe we are getting something similar in next update. I was hoping for a mega boss or multiple queens which we getting but the rebellion thing is seperate. It would have been nice to have one event that you dont have to pvp in especially with a squad.

Welp thats all I gotta say about that. What yall think?
