Let's talk about the long term sustainability of PvE in ARC Raiders. The hard truth for the naysayers is that PvE numbers were overwhelmingly positive during the test and impossible to ignore for the long term health of the game. ARC Raiders blew up the video game scene as a casual extraction shooter (or as Embark Studios coined it, extraction adventure) built upon a PvPvE system. The fear of the unknown was a spice we could all handle - some more than others. And while there are two ends to every spectrum, the game's data will now show that the PvE side is far heavier than the PvP side - or so I think it will. Yes, a significant portion of raiders want the original PvPvE as intended, but within that group is likely a much heavier PvE side. If that nformation is true it means a few things: 1) If Embark doesn't enable a PvE mode, whether rotating map condition or full on game mode, they will cut their player-base. And cut them deep. 2) Launching a PvE mode will retain a large portion of their player-base, but it will also segment the overall player-base, making the original PvPvE an even more unknown battlefield. It could force far more PvP action, making it less attractive for PvE players to move back to the intended game mode. There is no doubt this will happen. With that knowledge, the future sustainability of both the game and PvE is a little clearer. It needs to be added if the largest portion of players are asking for it. It needs to be included in the game in a way that doesn't totally segment the player-base, in an effort to maintain the largest possible count. And on the note of player count, Embark Studios needs to internally define, if they haven't already, what their core metrics are for long term success. I personally think this game will never lean 100% into PvE over PvP. There will always be the original PvPvE game mode and I don't think anyone would think otherwise. I want PvPvE, but I get the complete appeal of PvE for the demographic that truly just wants to chill in ARC Raiders. I am that raider, but I also enjoy the risk and importance of communication in PvPvE. What comes next will most certainly define the future of the game? Full or temporary PvE mode? We'll find out in November.

Took a few snaps last night, and a few more this morning to test out the new Advanced Camera filters. Let me know what you think: instagram.com/p/DfASIFkmrv0/…

Here are the four Advanced Camera filter options: 1) Colour Push 2) Black and White 3) Default (with Grain) 4) Default (without Grain) For night raids, #4 is still the best option in most cases, imo. For day raids, #1 adds a quick cinematic look that’s camera ready for publishing with no further editing needed. #2 and #3 are simple style choices. Not for me, but there will be some really cool content created I’m sure.

The new Colour Push filter for the Advanced Camera adds a cinematic feel to it. Only issues so far is that the darks are REAL dark, so it’s best used in day conditions. See my next post for a side by side comparison of the filters during a Night Raid.

This has to be the saddest looking outpost in all of ARC Raiders. Couldn’t air bnb this place for free to a homeless person.

I love lighting up Stella Montis. The cold interior illuminates brilliantly with a bit of fire.

If I run into this happening topside you better believe the camera will be rolling. This is hilarious.

Filtering through my inbox looking for something and this popped up. Thought it was an invitation I missed 😩 This was actually only the automated email I received for applying for the program back in July 2025. Dream big 😅
