Matchmaking is a complex series of wires and circuits trying to connect players to give them the best time to match while also providing quality matches. In that complex nest of things we found a bug related to regional matchmaking that is affecting a very small set of players that is unintentionally putting them in matches they’re not supposed to be in. We’re prepping a fix to get in for Tuesday morning 4/21 PT to fix this. Thanks for helping us find this, we’ll work on smoothing it out.

Bungie I’m begging you to remove this hidden SBMM yall added because it actually makes the game unplayable for the top players like pls.

UPDATE: WTF WSTRs We're gonna take a shot at bringing the WSTR more in line. Right now it's become a dominant option and is eclipsing a lot of the other short range options that exist in the game. SOOOOOO... as of Tuesday 4/21 (likely 8AM PT) the WSTR will no longer be able to down an enemy player who has blue shields or above with two shots. The ideal is that in a majority of cases this will force a reload in scenarios where the target has a blue shield, allowing for some more counterplay in these scenarios. What Will Change: - Change will go live Tuesday 4/21 in the morning. Likely 8AM PT. - WSTRs can still down a green shielded target with 2 direct shots at short rang - WSTRs will no longer be able to down a blue and above shielded target with 2 shots at short range. We're still keeping an eye on a variety of balance issues. Thanks for all the feedback, keep it coming and we'll keep hammering at it.

ARC Raiders has lost almost 80% of its players this year on Steam It had a peak 2026 concurrent player count of 466,372 in early January

What in the….

Marathon is officially shutting down this year (allegedly) 70% of players already quit after 1 month. In the past 4 days alone, it lost 9000 players There is no doubt about it. This game is dying and will be shut down

I know you said "most families", (not all). Nevertheless, I find it hard to believe anyone is suffering. I eat well for 300 dollars a month, my mortgage is 800 a month, have a well paying job (here in North Florida, and before that in Georgia). All the people I know are doing well. A bit pessimistic, Matt?
