Ninja, one of the most popular video game streamers ever, says his Arc Raiders runs are plagued by an overwhelming amount of cheaters that normal players don’t have to deal with, and he figures that because of that, his complaints aren’t being heard.
“Unfortunately, 99% of the people that are playing this game are not even coming close to running into a fraction of the amount of cheaters that we are, so it’s falling on deaf ears a lot,” Ninja said on a recent stream (via Arc Raiders Alerts). “There’s a lot of the community that think we’re just fucking complaining, but they just don’t understand, right?”

Whether or not Ninja is experiencing a disproportionate amount of cheaters, developer Embark has recently taken notice of the growing chorus of complaints and promised “significant changes to our rulesets” as well as “new detection mechanisms” aimed at catching and getting rid of cheaters. This is despite the fact that the Arc Raiders community generally has an extremely positive reputation as being exceptionally helpful and friendly.
It’s worth noting that Ninja is primarily a PvP player when he streams Arc Raiders, and due to the game’s aggression-based matchmaking system, he’s probably being funneled into servers with similarly unfriendly players, and it’s hard to think of a less friendly group than cheaters. Still, here’s hoping Embark’s improved systems make a dent in the amount of cheaters both Ninja and everyone else is coming across.
“Will this blow up the server?”: Arc Raiders players are so good at killing Arc that Embark is considering how to “escalate” PvE, dev teases a Shredder escape and “the giant walking ones in the background.”
