Felt this needed to be put on main The reason why I think ARC Raiders innovates the extraction genre is because it's the first time PvPvE has been built in a way that perfectly synergizes. All the elements are built to be dynamic and natural Tarkov's PvPvE is bland because it all boils down to "guys with guns" Hunt's PvE, while cool, are still single boss fights in a small, predetermined location Also neither of these games incentivize cooperation in any form, nor are there even mechanics built to allow it All of the ARCs behave differently, must be dealt with differently, and truly feel like a threat. It gives me Halo enemy AI vibes with how dynamic they all feel and how smart they are And the mini bosses??? No Hunt boss will match the experience of a Leaper jumping half way across the map to chase you down, a Rocketeer scanning windows as you hunker down inside, a Bombardier mortaring you as you run through the forest PvP and the TTK allows for longer, drawn out, strategic battles. You don't have to worry about getting insta-deleted from a single headshot. It's far more tense and fun. Using utility to gain any sort of advantage And then when it all starts mixing with each other, multiple Boss ARC fighting, multiple Raider teams deciding whether to help you or the ARC, utilites popping, ziplines and grapples hooks deployed, clutching up and making that last minute extract right as those doors close... ARC Raiders provides you with a giant world sandbox, and gives you, and the AI, free reign to interact with it. Anything can happen anywhere, there are no limits. THAT'S why you are able to have those cinematic insane moments. Because no other extraction shooter allows it to even happen at all I'm standing on ten toes that there's nothing else like it 🤠
