ARC RAIDERS New Beta Gameplay Demo

Just a reminder that anyone who does get a friends code working you will get 2 more friends codes at your Embark account to pass on so help out other GAF members if possible please :)
 
Maybe it's because The Finals sucks and this just is mediocre?

It's not like you have a valid opinion, because you don't even have one of your own.

Killjoy-NL Killjoy-NL has Embark Derangment Syndrome. The reasons are not clear, but his opinions on their games should be passed through that lense.
Yep. You know what they say about opinions. As for me I've thoroughly enjoyed THE FINALS for over 1000 hours, something like 4500 matches played. I believe I have enough experience with the game to be able to say that it is a solid shooter.

As for Arc Raiders, it's good but definitely needs some refinement especially on console.

Finally got a code through a friend. Excited to play with the lads!
It is more enjoyable with friends

I tried playing one match with randoms and while we did work together fairly well I had one guy with an open mic that was a loud mouth breather that sounded like he was 350 lbs and had just walked a flight of stairs and my other team mate also had an open mic and heard a baby crying in the background the whole time

I mostly just run solo and look for fairly rare stuff to stash in my safe pockets and when I don't really want to try and fight I just go in with zero gear to lose and only care to save a couple of rare items upon death
 
Same. :messenger_pensive: I think there might be something on their end. Some getting codes on steam and only requested yesterday.
I know I feel like the who where excited from the start and wish listed it got looked over by ppl who signed up this past week. Still waiting for a code. Did anybody who actually requested for the beta access from last year get one?????
 
Not about how many people got Arc but more like gamers didn't abandon the game Marathon.
Yeah but I don't think Marathon invited anyone new and I know ARC is still letting people in

I originally felt the same way was interested in player retention but we have no idea how many of these players today are new or returning players.

I think a decent metric is Twitch viewership as Marathon fell off there very fast as well and ARC still going strong with 80k+ watching right now
 
Definitely want to play this, wish there was a first person mode though. Any one with an extra code....help a brotha out.

You couldn't even find someone playing Marathon live on Youtube right now unlike Arc.

I would love a first person option

I actually would love a PVE mode for just exploring their world even if it meant something like half loot/XP gains or some way to tune it

Oh its dead without a doubt

Its just hard to take anything away from a game that had one batch of invites and no friends codes to another sending out waves of invites and all those people can invite 2 friends

And as I found out getting a lot of my friends in I could daisy chain invites with dummy accounts

I love third person games for single player stuff and non competitive games but being able to corner peak with a third person camera is kinda lame for these kinda games. Maybe they'll pull a PUBG and add a FPP down the road.

Yes that's what Chris was saying on LSM about arc is that with third person that PVP gets a bit cheap. Camping seems like it will be an issue in Arc is another Problem. Chris from LSM said camping doesn't happen in Marathon it just doesn't work as well or something I forget his reasoning.
