The cheating issue in ARC Raiders is becoming more problematic with each passing day. We know Embark has addressed the issue and is working on a fix, but when will we get a meaningful update? So far this year, we've only had two small patch updates.

If this post gets any traction the entire comment section will be "its because you're in the aggressive lobbies you're playing wrong and deserve it for not looting crates every game"

It's getting bad. Teammates ratting each other now @ARCRaidersGame

No its not haven't came across a single cheater 300 hours played by the way. No saying there isnt cheaters but lets not start a weird narrative cause there are always cheaters in a video game🤒

I think it really depends on how you play. My suspicion is that cheaters tend to get funneled into the hyper-aggressive PvP lobbies. I play in a much more relaxed way, only engaging when fired upon and helping out where I can. In over 300 hours, I haven’t knowingly encountered a single cheater.

The games been out for 80 days today and they all took the holidays off. How about you cut @EmbarkStudios a little slack. It’s their second game ever. Friendly lobbies on console don’t have any of these issues

What I find an amusing irony to this is that only the pvp lobbies have this issue thanks to aggression based lobby selection. The friendly lobbies inherently don't have to deal with sweaty player bases. We win again.

Living up to their name 💀

Cheating erodes the spirit of fair competition hoping Embark delivers that key update soon.

Cheating kills extraction faster than balance ever will. Risk only works if the rules are enforced. Embark needs to move fast and communicate clearly.

Simple fix, play console. Crossplay off. I haven’t been hacked on a single time 😂

The likes of fortnite & COD have ruined gaming. They have large teams of people to work on fixes, will no doubt be prioritised by Sony, XBox etc for server side fixes (which costs money to the dev) They are a relatively small studio & the problem is nothing like other games & so things aren’t going to move as fast as the giants

Stop complaining, cheaters impact the smallest percentage of gamers we’ve seen in the last decade on this game because of the way matchmaking works. They stated the game wasn’t supposed to be PvP yet a small but vocal subset wants to be aggressive and then gets shit on. Oh well

I’ve Never come across a cheater .

“So far this year”, homie we are not even done with January. Cool the fuck out

I’m not understanding how this isn’t an easy hot fix - anyone care to explain?

In all honesty its prob 1 cheater per 2 raids at least. You might not run into him, he might down early, but hes on the map.

200 hours gameplay on PS5, not run into a single cheater, PC is the most anti gaming platform on the market, it will never end no matter what the devs do, at least you die in 4k tho.

I saw this coming when they didn’t announce a kernel anti cheat with the game. Luckily they have been fast with catching cheaters so you can get loot back but eventually it’ll get to a point where it’s gonna feel like u have a cheater every other game.

He said 18 days into a new year…

Bruh the ppl who have not met cheaters r in the passive lobbies. Once u start shooting ppl u will be sent to the unplayable lobbies.

They are proving themselves completely limited. When they set fire to the locked rooms, everyone thought it was cool, but to me, they were just covering up something they can't solve, just like with the hatch; it's all just a facade.

How can they ban someone who uses cronus or macro on playstation and xbox ^^

Just died to this doing trials after a night of bullshit 🤣

How many people slating Embark are game devs? Anyone? I'm guessing they are a small team and are doing the best they can. If the cheating is too much for you right now, leave and come back in 6 months. They're not any of the other big names. I'm pretty sure they didn't expect the game to go off like this and I'm pretty sure they didn't expect lobbies of pvp sweats either.

Every multiplayer game is like this not the cheating, but new updates have been very slow with all the online games I have installed it's pretty crazy, but any day now think they're holiday ended on the 4th-5th somewhere around there even so more glitches popped up recently, too.

Its been *checks watch* a couple weeks and some change from the holidays. It's a small dev team, give them a lil time.

this is what you get for playing PvP enjoy it

I have met 0 cheaters

Забей чувак им просто важно стричь деньги.

Play console bro

just encounter them during the Matriarch event 4 times in a row This is not fun anymore

I be all for Arc Raiders Devs just put out an announcement, "due to the constant whining of players about cheats, we are closing down all servers and taking the game offline until we are 100% certain no cheats exist in the game" sure thats better than people still able to play ?

they really need to start treating people doing this the same way as hackers and handing them permanent bans

People on TikTok just live streaming Cheats

Is anyone else seeing the ocean on the tunnels to exit Buried City?
