BF6 rival knows how to ease the frustration of players losing to cheaters. ARC Riders community is very impressed

Embark Studios’ online shooter, ARC Raiders, had a strong start, but like many modern online games, it’s been affected by cheaters. While the issue doesn’t appear to be massive, it’s still spoiling the experience for players who are playing fairly.

Man, it’s tough losing in this game! It really hurts to lose all your hard-earned gear and stuff when you die. But it’s a whole other level of frustrating when you lose everything because someone was cheating. It just feels awful knowing it wasn’t even a fair fight.

So, the team behind ARC Raiders knows cheating is a problem, and they’re doing something about it! From what I’ve seen on Reddit, if you lose a match because of a cheater, they’re actually giving you back any items you lost. Pretty cool, right? Apparently, you’ll get a message on your screen when this happens.

Your items were lost due to unfair play, but we managed to get them back for you!

Embark Studios is building a gaming environment focused on fair play, skill, and teamwork, rather than cheating or exploiting bugs. They’ve told PC Gamer that they aim to compensate players affected by unfair behavior and will punish those who engage in it.

Players praise the creators

Some players are curious about how the game determines if a death was caused by a cheater. They want to know if it happens automatically using in-game information, or if a player needs to report it first. So far, Embark Studios hasn’t publicly explained how their cheat detection system works, and there’s no clear answer available on Reddit.

Even though the issue of cheating in ARC Raiders received some attention, it doesn’t appear to be a common problem. Many players, including those who have played for a long time, report not encountering any cheaters. However, the community really appreciates that the developers are addressing the issue and are willing to restore items lost due to cheating.

The post sparked a larger discussion about how to deal with cheaters, including more invasive anti-cheat software that scans your computer – similar to what’s used in games like Battlefield. While these kinds of solutions are often debated, many players said they’d be okay with them if they significantly reduced cheating.
