ARC Raiders is often described as a cooperative extraction game, but in my experience it feels like the game constantly pushes players toward mistrust.
The ARC machines are overwhelming, so teaming up makes sense. But at the same time, killing other Raiders and stealing their loot is often the most efficient way to progress. That creates a weird tension where cooperation is useful, but betrayal is sometimes more rewarding.
So I’m curious what others think.
Do you feel ARC Raiders encourages teamwork, or does it ultimately reward selfish play?
