Arc Raiders has started cracking down on cheaters, but not everyone is convinced the consequences are tough enough. Players caught using hacks aren’t seeing outright bans just yet. Instead, the developers appear to be using a unique approach: anyone caught with cheats active is subjected to relentless arc spawning during matches.
For those unfamiliar, arc spawning floods cheaters with constant enemy waves, making gameplay frustrating and nearly impossible for them. It’s a creative way to deter cheating without immediately resorting to permanent bans. However, some in the community feel this form of punishment is more of a mild inconvenience than a real deterrent. Critics argue that persistent arc spawning might be annoying but does little to meaningfully punish or remove cheaters from the player base.
The decision to avoid outright bans for now could be read as the developers’ attempt to gather more evidence or implement a more measured response, but it is clear that frustration is simmering, especially among players wanting quicker action against cheats. As Arc Raiders continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how the anti-cheat measures develop, and whether harsher penalties start to appear for those who compromise fair play.
