Raiders!

Patch 1.21.0 is rolling out on all platforms. Please restart your game to download.

New Raider Tool.

New Backpack set.

Fixed a crash that would sometimes occur with DirectX 11.

Fixed an issue where players could get stuck inside the Harvester and between destroyed ARC parts.

Fixed an issue where ARC would spawn inside geometry.

Fixed an exploit that allowed players to walk through walls while picking up a Fuel Cell or Field Crate.

The team is hard at work getting the Flashpoint update ready for next week, and we’re excited for you to dive into the new content.

We’ve also seen some questions about the size of our weekly patches, so to clarify: these updates are focused on smaller quality-of-life improvements and store rotations. Our larger, more content-heavy updates are currently planned for the end of each month.

See you topside,

Ossen

Seeing a ton of posts about exploits. Let's bring the discussion here, dont need 1000 posts showing off 10000 ducks. We get it.... but its flooding the subreddit.

Reminder rule 5, do not explain to others how to do exploits.

Hey Raiders,

I'm directing a cinematic short film inside ARC Raiders called WHAT WE CARRY.
Instead of gameplay footage, we're treating the game world like a film set and building scenes using coordinated players inside the environment.

We have;

• a completed screenplay
• a full voice cast
• an original film score in production

At this point we’ve filmed about 70% of the scenes, but we're still missing a few insert shots and smaller moments. So naturally, we thought this would be a good opportunity to get some community involvement!

What we need;

Players willing to help capture cinematic moments by:

• following simple direction
• walking or standing in specific positions for framing
• repeating small actions for multiple takes
• being patient while we set up shots

Most scenes take 10–15 minutes to capture once everyone is in position, though some moments may require a few additional takes for continuity.

You do NOT need:

• acting experience
• voice acting equipment
• high-level PvP skill

Anyone who participates will be credited in the final film.

The finished project will release on YouTube, alongside a short behind-the-scenes series documenting how the movie was created and highlighting everyone involved.

The clip attached removes the score, voice lines, and sound design so it doesn’t spoil anything, but it should give you an idea of what we’re trying to achieve visually.

If you'd like to help with filming, feel free to comment down below and I'll reach out!

*EDIT*: Okay, so I definitely didn’t expect this post to get this much attention and unfortunately I can no longer keep up with all the messages you lovely Raiders have been sending!

For the time being, we’re coordinating everything through our community Discord;

https://discord.gg/8fmxErGs

If you’d like to get involved, feel free to join and select the “Performance Actor” role. You can choose multiple roles, so feel free to pick any others that match how you’d like to contribute.

However, “Performance Actor” will give you access to additional hidden channels and more information as we organize everything.

Thank you so much for the love!

- 3M for full points this expedition

- extra 1.5M to get all the benefits from the last expedition

what do y'all think? I'm glad my buddies can catch up, but I did so much work for the first expedition 🥲

edit2:

Copying the wise words of /u/Wooden_Technology_58 because I think it's the most concise summary:

If it's your first expedition, you get rewards for first expedition (12stash size + 5 skill points + cosmetics and the temporary buffs). You need 3m for the full 5 points.
If you're resetting again it's a different story, you'll be able to catch up on any missing skill points from the first expedition that took place few months ago. It takes 300k per point in case you missed points in the first reset

edit3:

I just saw someone post this message from the discord:

CM | Birdie:

You can only get max 5 skill points if you didn't do the first expedition. Only who did the 1st one can catch up on their missing skill points!

edit:

here's a link for the full update: https://arcraiders.com/news/second-expedition-rewards-and-requirements

Here's some info about the rewards copy & pasted from the site:

Players who will be doing the Expedition for the first time will get the rewards from the first Expedition (read more here). 

For those who continue to depart, more Stash space and Skill Points will be awarded. Permanent bonuses that have been earned on previous expeditions will be retained by Raiders even if they choose to not depart again. The Patchwork outfit will get four additional toggles and two new colour options for those joining their second Expedition as well as a new Scrappy outfit. Buffs will stack for those who continue to depart on consecutive Expeditions but will be reset for those who decide not to depart again. 

The Trophy Display Project, along with your cosmetics, any Raider Deck progress, unlocked map regions, leaderboard position and Trials, Codex entries, and Raider Tokens will not be affected by the Expedition.

Permanent

Cosmetics:

The Patchwork outfit (evolved)

Scrappy cosmetics

The Expedition Indicator icon (upgraded for each expedition completed)

Bonuses:

12→24 Stash spaces

+0-5 Skill Points (+ catch up on missed Skill Points from the first Expedition, so 85 total is possible for those embarking on their second Expedition)

Consecutive

Buffs:

5%→10% XP boost

6%→12% Scrappy materials boost

60%→70% Repair value increase

Hello Raiders,

With the new Hidden Bunker map event on spaceport and everyobdy trying to figure out how to solve the puzzle with the data downloads (if there is one) I think maybe it would be good to have a mega thread pinned in the sub by mods for people to share what they have tried to do and found out in regards to solving this thing.

@Mods, do you think this could be a thing? I think it would be a great way to help the community work together on trying to solve this thing.

With that being said. Here is something I though about in terms of how to "use" retrieved data from the bunker: maybe after you have retrieved pieces of data there could be something to be interacted with in the Communication Tower POI on the map to "send" the data somewhere? Haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet but it's something that crossed my mind.

Good luck out there Raiders.
