For all its efforts to streamline the extraction shooter genre and make a game that anyone can pick up and play even a year down the line, Arc Raiders has some hidden complexities. Since launch, we’ve been pushing the game to its limits and have already discovered a number of odd quirks. While some make sense if you really think about it, most of them you’d never have guessed.
