@DC_Draino @grok Please look up Todd Blanche’s record when it come to supporting the second amendment and compare it to Pam Bondi’s.

You nerfed energy ammo craft? You guys do realize that having craftable items which require farming large ARC which sell for high dollar amounts drives people to kill ARC right? I get you want to slow the money grind down so people spend more time in the game, but at this point the items with the most money are guns….which means the fastest way to make money is to kill people for their guns….which I thought was not the ethos of this game? Funny how you are driving people to kill each other more through game design choices.

📡 Attention, Raiders! The 1.20.0 update is now live, styling some fresh new trims for your Raider, plus a variety of fixes! 🛠️ The Il Toro has been terrorizing Topside - this update aims to bring it in-line with weapons of the same rarity by adjusting it’s stats and making it more dependent on upgrades/mods. For an in-depth breakdown, read the full patch notes here: arcraiders.com/news/patch-not…

So let me get this straight. You don’t want people to only PvP but you still didn’t nerf the white and blue guns enough to matter AND you added cost to making the stuff to kill the bots……yeah that will make people PvE more 🤣🤣🤣. Why PvE when kill the bots is so much harder than killing the people who are brining in all the stuff to kill the bots.

📡 Attention, Raiders! The second Expedition window is now open! Prepare to start a new adventure in the Rust Belt with a fresh Raider, kicking off your journey with extra buffs and bonuses... what kind of Raider will you be this time around? For second-time Expeditioners, the Patchwork outfit has been adapted with unique additions to celebrate your story. Get up to speed with all the latest Expedition info in our blog: arcraiders.com/news/second-ex…

@ARCRaidersNews Sounds like aggression based match making is the problem. Also the rewards for killing them are meaningless and have no impact on gameplay.

Embark thinks the Queens and Matriarch are too easy ARC Raiders' design director said: "Even though [they are] huge and deadly, they're not intended for the full server to go up against and get equally rewarded." But they're supposed to be tackled by a couple of dedicated squads, maybe working together while also dealing with other players

@StoneMountain64 Night raids are only worth doing for the BPs.

Night raids not having the hatch makes me want to skip them, is the loot really worth it? I have found that there are certain blueprints that only spawn at night, but once you have them, there really isn't a need to go.

@CamEdwards Submitting bills which are on their face unconstitutional, should have legal repercussions for said politician.

This bill is already dead, at least for this session. Unanimously pushed to 2027 for consideration by Senate Court of Justice a week ago. But it's good to know Salim wants to infringe on First Amendment as well as Second Amendment rights.

@ARCRaidersNews It’s too much arcade for me.

I'm always bitter THE FINALS didn't go viral like ARC Raiders. It's made by the same studio that made the hottest 2025-2026 game. Like ARC Raiders and FPS? Try THE FINALS now.

@aimkeyx Maybe dial back the amount of PvP you engage in. You act like this mechanic was not intended. PvP is a choice. You don’t want to get third partied don’t PvP unless you have too. It’s not hard. @embark This thread is why you don’t listen to no life streamers.

if embark wants to fix 3rd partying they got to lower the amount of teams that spawn per game, you can kill 5 teams and theres still more spawning

@TheRooster Marathon is going to be trash. Please don’t draw from what they do for ideas. Most of your ideas suck as it is we don’t need worse ones.

Trials in ARC Raiders are boring. This is what we should’ve had instead 👇

@ARCRaidersGame This guy is streaming his chests right now stating your anti cheat sucks.

@ARCRaidersGame Don’t miss out. tiktok.com/t/ZT913bMpBkgX… Please get these people banned and find a way to block this.

It’s tough as a solo when a loot-hungry squad picks up your scent 😬 Careful planning can get you out of a tight spot when your back’s up against the wall, all you need is a little foresight and a well-prepped loadout!

@ARCRaidersGame No one in North America with a life can do this event. Also the rewards are not worth it, like most of the rewards. Although the new project is better.

Bird City’s hiding a whole flock of new unique rubber ducks, waiting in nests for Raiders to poach them! Getting elbow-deep while looting chimneys is a risky job, but highly profitable. How many varieties have you collected so far? 🦆

@TheARCcentral This is dumb and it’s not ever going to happen. Either get good or stop playing.

Seeing a lot of discussion in my mentions about this so I wanted to ask, would this be a good idea?

@ARCRaidersGame Solos vs squads is stupid. Don’t cater to streamers if you want this game to continue on. Streamers ruin games, not make them better.

📡 Attention, Raiders! The ice has thawed - Unprepared Raiders have fallen, the hardy survivors must press on. Here’s what’s coming tomorrow when Headwinds launches! Solo VS Squads • A new matchmaking option for LV40+ Raiders, take on full squads as a solo Raider for higher risk and higher XP. Trophy Display Project • Turn the tables and hunt down the ARC, fill your trophy case, unlock valuable rewards. Bird City Map Condition • Loot-packed nests appear as flocks of birds return to Buried City, watch your back on the rooftops. Read the latest blog here - arcraiders.com/news/headwinds…

@Reave Don’t sleep on “insert gun” which I have 100% accuracy with. 🤣

don't sleep on the burletta

@TheTacticalBrit Dude you’re crazy. You’re looking at this content drop from the perspective of a streamer. People who have real jobs will be fine with the road map.

I feared Arc Raiders success would struggle to push content fast enough. One map by April is not great. The arc threats and conditions are a nice to have but I don't think that's enough really to tide it over

@Kreeped @JakeSucky Without a strong PvE incentive the game will die. DMZ proved this.

As I've mentioned in other posts. It's awesome Arc Raiders turned into a 12+ million copies sold success but based off the CEOs own comments the "Ethos" of Arc was always PvP. I'm sure that they'll cater to PvP to some extent. But it's pretty clear Marathon will embrace PvP and build off of it with each of the factions. I'm ready for Marathon.

ARC Raiders: Aggression based matchmaking, you decide PvP or PvE Marathon: We have a death cult

@JakeSucky Base the game in world that feels real. This feels like a cartoon.

What does Marathon need to do to succeed in your eyes?

He is encountering cheaters because all he does is PvP and that’s what the cheaters do as well. So the matchmaking system is putting them together. It’s not rocket science. Then you have those who put people down cause they want to PvE and avoid PvP when they can. Who are you tell tell someone else how to play the game they paid to play?

Ninja thinks that because 99% of the ARC Raiders player base doesn't encounter even a fraction of the cheaters he does, his concerns are falling on deaf ears. Many in the community simply dismiss the frustration as unnecessary complaining.

@StoneMountain64 You can greatly reduce your spring needs if you farm Bastion cores. They break down into 2 advanced mechanical components per. Advanced mechanical components were my single largest user of springs and green mechanical components.

Springs are the biggest bottleneck for crafting good attachments and advanced mechanical components late game. My best solution so far is big arc purple drops and mechanical spawns. Any better spots for springs?
