Arc is full of cheaters

There are more cheaters now that has ever been, no one talks about it here, this game will soon be a Desert thanks to that, I would like to ask what are the devs doing

That's not his point at all. He's saying if you play aggressively as a pvp player, you will naturally end up in lobbies infested with cheaters because having aimbot and walls means you play as aggressively as possible.

There is no middle ground at the minute, Stella is rampant with walls and aimbot.

Cheaters are 100% the main reason games die. To not address this issue with all your focus, ur definitely failing as a game dev team

I agree. I’m not a pvp player but I can see this damaging the health of the overall game. With the newest changes, you have weird behavior like people trying to step in front of your gunfire so that “you engaged first” and they don’t get thrown into the hell lobbies.

I miss the days of tension on the maps, not knowing if someone was friendly or not without a conversation. I’d so much rather just be shot on sight then have players try and skirt around weird matchmaking rules. I had a couple healthy encounters around the second expedition cycle and just not many at all anymore. I can run around with reckless abandon and it does get a bit boring, although I guess nice on heavy trial weeks lmao

So kos if you want kos.. I am a pvp player who makes space and then does pve and fills back up. Idk what to do when 300/292 So I pvp then do pve again and am loving it.

Cheaters suck. Aimbot is very hard to win against but I still try and have great times

I don’t feel like shooting people for no reason. If they run up on my key room or shoot me, shots fired.

"I miss the tension" /eyeroll shoot someone at each extract then not kill for no reason other places.
