THE FUSE

Developer Embark has released another cheat-busting patch to its extraction shooter Arc Raiders, just a week after the last. Responding to widespread player annoyance at the amount of cheating that really seemed to kick off over the winter break, the studio made clear it had become a big priority, and really seems to be delivering on that promise. The latest patch addresses two big issues that were spoiling the game for many: people shooting from out-of-bounds, and those who had found exploits that let them shoot through the game’s geometry. It also takes care of a naughty duplication glitch.
