Arc Raiders Tech Test 2 Trailer

Always been interested in this game during its long gestation, but I had been thinking Marathon might completely overshadow it. Obviously not anymore. As a multiplayer experience to hopefully jump on with my mates, this looks ten times more enticing than the Bungie roblox game.

I immediately see an issue with this game being 3rd person... 3rd person perspectives make camping around corners not only more viable, but en extremely OP strategy.

I could see this becoming an issue in an extraction shooter unless the TTK is very slow and allows people to react to campers.

Roughly around DMZ TTK if you ever played that game.

This really grinds my gears.

Campers would be effective in real life, which means you would want to limit exposure as much as possible.

Same, I was in the previous playtest but i got in through and invite from a friend. I don't seem to have been granted access to this one just yet, hopefully it'll just go live tomorrow.

Can't say I really care much about extraction shooters.
But at least on a surface level I find this game a lot more interesting looking than Marathon. Not only do I prefer the aesthetic, but these clips of fighting big mech enemies look a lot more appealing than anything I've seen from Marathon
 
It does look good, artistically and graphically. The synthy tracks are a great 80's dystopian future sci-fi vibe as well.

Is it an extraction shooter? Or more like The Division?

Im really curious about the content in the final version. They went silent after may and barely posted anything. That sound video is excellent tho. The sound design is just amazing. Marketing should start soon so they have to show something new

This was their last update (before this sound one) Sounds like things will kick into gear imminently.

Raiders, The team here in Stockholm is in full gear, getting ready for release on October 30! Our focus is now on polishing and expanding the experience, and putting all the learnings from TT2 into action ahead of release. Just so you know, we're not planning additional public tests before launch. We've learned from our last announcement that it's crucial to keep expectations in check, so we also want to be clear that we won't be at Gamescom. But don't worry, our launch campaign will kick off before you know it!

We'll have many more updates for you in the lead-up to launch. Thank you for all the support and encouragement you've been sending our way! It means the world.

Really like the vibe of this game, the graphics, sound, music and overall atmosphere of the game look amazing, old guard DICE rarely disappoint.
Too bad it's PVP, I love playing some PVE Tarkov but PVP extraction shooters are really not my thing unfortunately.
I'm looking forward to listening to the soundtrack though, so far it sounds amazing.
 
Im extremely hyped for this but If they don't fix the stuttering and performance issues that were present in the beta then this game will be dead on arrival.

My pessimistic concern is that they didn't have an open beta because they haven't been able to fix the performance and won't be able to by launch.

I really hope I'm wrong!

I'll be watching from afar to see what the final version looks like to see if it's worth my time. I was hyped by the initial reveal trailer, but it doesn't look anything like it now.
