I wish I could react these posts 🙂
You will when you get a level up!
Oh ok. I haven't seen any reactions, so I thought it was a just a server level setting
Also, Elden Ring sucks. There, I said it. I think it's over-hyped and has terrible gameplay and UI. And I think that if it came from literally any other developer that didn't already have some clout, it would have been negatively reviewed.
want access to arc
Don't hate me 😰
Gib access
This is the chillest server ever, no one's going to be bothered by video game opinions tbh 
Thanks for posting that one ;;
stop fishing bruh
My controversial gamer opinion is that I like Monster Hunter World more than MHRise
Bro thats not controversial, thats facts
Ok but monster hunter is bad
^ Now that is controversial
we all want it my friend
anyone know if its ok for somone to say their in the test or not lol? just wondering if anyone in here got accepted
You can look into the discord members on the right sight and see that some are already playing
so did the arc raiders beta start?
Apperently
Alpha!

Hey Contestant! I see you're interested in becoming a Raider, as well.
This the Discord for THE FINALS, so if you'd like to talk about ARC Raiders in general, please go to #🏓┇other-games.
:warning: Please remember that we do not allow Closed Alpha playtesters to talk about their experiences, yet! By participating in the Closed Alpha, players agree not to disclose impressions, video, images or stream their gameplay. This is a game in early development and we don't want to share it openly before we think it is ready.

Thank you for your cooperation, Contestant!
The faq says 1 key extra
cool discord moderation lol I think it detects automatically if we are trying to ask for a key lol
I know I cant post videos/screenshots, is talking about it not allowed either?
Okay thanks for letting me know
Absolutely not allowed
🙏
Make sure to delete any comment you've made elsewhere as well.
Embark has to the count of 3 to give me access to arc raiders
I will not say it again
i want access 
Same here
#donatesparekeys #sharingiscaring
yes
you do what you have to do 🫡
only 1 key tho, and this time it’s very limited, so harass ask politely
Good friends should expect it. 
true tho, and i got them all into finals 
all my friends are losers they didnt even request access
its not good to be the only gamer in da grp
i reached diamond in the finals with my friend and we haven't got access to ARC 😭

time to get better friends 
I've been testing The Finals since the Alpha, last year. Didn't get in either. Guessing it's just random.
it is the same system as finals aka steam generated and random
they only control region
Embark is a ray of hope in the game industry
Hey
I need the arc raiders discord if anyone has it I got access to playtest
Otherwise I gotta look it up myself it's from the same Developer Embark that makes the finals

Do note that the server's currently in read-only since it's a small Closed Alpha
i wonder if they will keep giving out keys during the whole weekend or only today
hopefully whole weekend
@bitter barn will there be an announcement in the Arc server when the CAT goes live? I want to make sure I don’t miss anything, or be certain I didn’t get an invite if so.
If you look in the user list on the right, some are already playing and as steamdb says, there are 600 users currently playing
The CAT is already live friend. Means of accessing it are the same as THE FINALS beta, so playtest with a friend keys or random access given by Steam (request access)

That was impressive fast 😂
Do remember the CAT is under NDA, so no screenshot sharing or streaming please.
Of course, dw I know how NDAs work.
time to figure out how to leave work early
oh crap I accidentally posted a picture of the CAT

i cant find how long the CAT will be...
KEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i want key 😓
until the 3rd
want the access
hope you get in
i saw alot idiots that selling invite
how they get it?
why we have don't have access?
playtest with a friend is active for this alpha, although you can only share with 1 friend
had to turn off my activity show thingy, getting spammed
that's unfair
it's rng
ty
yeah i've been given like 5 dms already 😭
At what time did the finals open servers for testing?
Will trade car rides for access. 
no playtest for The Finals rn
No im saying for the previous one
hmm should be an announcement somwhere when they opened the servers
14th around 4PM CET
Im guessing we can expect the same time for arc raiders then?
arc raiders beta already started like 6hrs ago
Huh, but there havent been any updates on socials yet
idk not that important to them ig
just look at the sidebar, there are 100s of people playing
myself included
does they just sending access to player in usa?
no USA and europe
but like game is so much different in comparison to the finals
embark really decided to go on a fully new path
do they really do ban to invite seller?
i hate them they take up places without play
have someone a key for the finals
but i didn't see anyone who get banned
dont think u need one anymore xd
ended up
If there's another closed test, I'll send you one of mine.
I need a key for AR too if anyone got a spare one let me know 🥺 🔑
Are they doing the same system as the finals? In the sense that keys are given out every hour or so
No clue. I've only heard about the people getting them at the same time, earlier today.
want a key for arc

idk, we just know it's in waves
Thats so dumb how they dont notify us about the alpha being open tho
they do notify you, you are emailed about it when you get access
beta for finals is over there is no access atm
Yes, but its very limited the actual people who get access. Im talking about a general announcement that the alpha started like how they did with the finals.
Hopefully they open up another one, or launch soon. I'm going through withdrawals.
why would they, its a small alpha and its all under heavy NDA
they actually didn't with the finals alpha. this is the same
Looks to me like it's a really closed alpha - and they did publicly invite everyone to sign up to playtest so
they dont want discussions about it
Embark are doing it exactly as one would expect, frankly. All someone who is interested has to do is join the discord/follow the twitter for news, and sign up for the playtest, that's it really
Guys, does Arc Raiders have a discord??
Welp if anybody has a spare friend key il be chilling in the meantime

anybody got in or they didnt invite yet?
seems they don't take request that sign by asian
It doesn't say the playtest is specifically LIMITED to EU or NA region
Man I got a key but idk if I should save it incase a friend wants to play with me, or to give it to a random person
Is it limited to NA and EU?
no, it's not. It's just players outside EU and NA will have more ping
And some are playing from japan...
i'd say ask your friends and if their not interested then consider giving one to a random
Bro, you may want to turn off DMs, posting something like this, in these shark infested waters. 
They're all offline...
@viscid star hayyyyyyyaaa
well you can ask them and wait till they respond
people are playing already?
is the playtest under NDA or something?
thats so weird there is not even a social post
ah that explains it
do they expect people would randomly check their email? lol
Yes
It's not that heavy, if you can tell people you're playing, and let discord show the game
if you want the game then yes
YOINK
If you dont mind giving it out I wouldnt mind
@mint belfry its not about players wanting to play, more than the devs want people to test the game, it doesnt make sense
up to you tho
I see what you mean but that's legitimately it.
anyone truly interested in testing would keep checking
we are literally doing free QA
The really heavy NDAs ask for government issued IDs, and forbid you from even mentioning your involvement.
it also still shows you on your steam page afaik regardless of email or not
That is just the system of steam, they can't do anything about it
I mean, I'm talking in the video game sphere here for NDA here :|
Yeah what Lincuxe said, it will show up in your library regardless of whether or not you see the email
They could give the keys out on a website, that way they could make it serial
It's cool of them to give out friend codes, tbh.
If you want exact details, check the website, and however you deem it is up to you! :)
Is it possible to play a party of 3 in ARC Raiders? 😄
you cannot discuss arc
delete the msg your revealing some stuff
how?
Besides, they want to keep the player count to a minimum since it's closed alpha, hence why there is NDA to not leak any footage or information of the game
Will you get an email or will arc just appear?
Both
Alpha/beta testing, without pay, is essentially free QA for devs.
does anyone know how many people are allowed into the arc raiders playtest cause ive had the game on reequest access for months and didnt get access does that mean i cant get in at all?
QA testing is way more than just playing and giving feedback
@dark swift might want to delete this, kinda revealing a bit abt the game
yeah? it is only a question 🤔
Its a question, probably based on THE FINALS squad size
fair enough
the response of cant discuss was more directed at nobody can answer your question
I understand what is involved in an actual QA role, I was explaining what the guy meant. It's still a form of QA, albeit a very weak one.
i can tell you right now, as an actual QA tester, this isn't even close to what QA is
See my follow up message... I'm well aware.
anyone?
And you cant get better feedback then the consumers themselves
not really. developers are testing based on game philosophy mostly
wrong
they can omitt our feedback entirely if they want to
for QA, a build/product is not allowed to release unless QA approves lmao
Yes but the developers might have tunnel vision and a players insight might be very helpful
feedback and qa are different ballparks though
i can assure you that developers know more than we do, about their own unreleased game
realistically youre not sat in a room doing the same thing over and over and over for hours as a beta tester
^
its not all rosey in dev lol
What is this discussion even about?
Splitting hairs
that alpha testing is a form of QA, which I don't agree with at all
How so?
you can read up on it by scrolling up a bit. i'd just be repeating myself
We can cease the discussion at this point and agree to disagree
dominance asserted, anger pacified
does embark have a QA team?
yeah
When is the deadline of the alpha?
Alright folks, back to begging for keys.
Guys, the steam summer sale is up rn btw
I...just preordered Armored Core 6 yesterday...my wallet is throwing hands rn
as if it was full of money anyway. you got debt to pay to tom nook
Meet your maker has a free trial rn for 3 days
Don't forget to check current sales against past prices. Isthereanydeal
Make sure it's acshually a deal.
Thats very sane advice, I've been deal scammed before
Steam does that shit?
wait, sekiro is at an all time low rn
wym, if number down brain buy
it has NEVER been 50% off i swear??????
Same
mistake #1, checking
steam key for sekiro costs like 20 USD on g2a
yeah but im talking on steam store
i always see it at full price
also g2a is a scam site
there are other sites with the same price as well
yes but that was not the point my friend
true
We're also not having keyseller discussions here please.
steam store or ban
A lot of those key markets use stolen credit cards, its a very grey area.
Not something we want to talk about here.
sorry. i meant steam store or bwater t-pose
can someone reasure me that you can still get in cause ive been waiting a long ass time to get into arc
you can still get in
maybeeeee
invites are still going out so yes
bet
If one person gets a key and gives it to a friend cant that friend give another friend a key and they just repeat the cycle?
itll be subject to availability if so
It is 1 per person, but the person who gets the key just gives another to somebody else
and so on
Nope
😦
Dang, there go the last hopes of test access. Lol
Hey, anyone got into the beta of Arc Raiders ?
Happened with the finals, still doesnt hurt less the second time tho. Just gotta keep on that copium
Its a Alpha and yeah
You could key train with the CB1, I thought.

Nope only if you got invited and want to give one to a friend
The keys are not available to share anymore, at least for me
Oh ok
Ok then nope only if you are invited 😄
the things id do to get invited

I have a friend that’s in
🤨
👀
Can I get in too ?
ayooo
return of the access begging
Me too !
But sometimes it's all you've got to work with. 
Im not gonna beg to anyone Im just asking how it works
There is a difference between begging and asking tho
nobody is forcing you to give out keys lmao
Im just asking I don’t wanna get accused of begging …
Im not giving any Key i’m asking how to get one beside the steam whist list
You cant
prey
Damn
i wish they had a private discord so people with access could discuss
I got into the finals on the 1st day of The finals CB1. So I won’t get that lucky again Ig
That breaks NDA aprntly, I asked the same question with SOT insider but they said they cant have a discord server
ah fair enough
🚨 Beg alert🚨 - Need AR alpha key please send if you have a spare one 
Idk why not. I've been in plenty of testing phases that the companies created private, test specific, servers for.
I like this one
theres no need to, the game is gonna have in game survey for feedback
Ik its abit weird but they did have a forum for stuff like that just couldnt on discord aprntly
the NDA is heavy for a reason ig, its the devs wishes and its cuz leaks can make poor first impressions like when GTA VI was leaked twitter exploded with negativity to an unfinished product
Does that mean that all keys are gone or just friend keys?
time to get into the cbt 1 day before it ends
No clue
Just up to each company, if they want to manually verify people for discord access.
i might have a 100% luck stat with alpha and beta tests 
got in?
day 1 of finals and arc raiders
and meet your maker
insane
Mines pretty hit or miss. I really should just spam steam accounts to play the numbers game.
Same, both my brother and I got given access at the same time for both the beta on the finals and now alpha for arc
Mine is just miss 😭
Idm that much tho I just go back to doing minecraft tech modpacks
I have murder thoughts
same

yippee
I need the arc raider

not the gosling 😭
Anyone know where you can get the keys to share?
Don't see anything this time on https://id.embark.games/
They are already empty, so no more keys for now. If i remember correctly
rip
have they said how long the alpha will last? arc raiders
July 3rd
damn that short af
yeah theres no way Im getting in, even if I did I couldnt even play it as I go out of town tomorrow until the 5th 💀
The Cycle Frontier server will be shutdown forever in september 🤔
have you brought it up in the contact us section in the official discord, they may post a solution to it later https://discord.gg/arcraiders
@heady kraken you don't, its a measure to avoid images being leaked.
oh that’s good

you’ve got it all planned out
Will there be more friend codes/general keys handed out for arc raiders?
Not sure, would recommend asking on the contact-us section of the ARC Raiders Discord.
they did say only whilst supplies last so if it’s already ran out then it might not restock
it says not to do that
not to open a ticket unless you have access
yeah i saw
Oh I see, then I'd just wait for updates
but will more general codes be handed out during test?
if they’ve run out per say then that might be the end of the friend code sharing
only time will tell
I don't have that information directly, this being THE FINALS server. While we work together, we keep things separated for the most part.
also if by general codes you mean invites sent by steam then yes
kk good to know
I really do hope they still give invites through out the beta duration.
they will, probably
how many more is the question though
i doubt it'll be more than are currently playing
that’s not info we know about
if i remember someone saying The Finals alpha had like 3k ppl max so the Arc playtest might have a similar player count
Then i don't really see them giving out codes through out the beta, since match start times would be really long.
If they would've slowly rolled out all of the invites
but no they give out like a bunch for people who arent gonna play it because they dont like the pvpve so now im sitting here wondering if this game will last longer than hypscape
well the whole point of this is to receive feedback from people with different tastes so if those people hopefully give feedback then i would say it’s worth it, even if it’s harshly negative
I mean this is just an alpha, but i'm still sad 
I can already see myself not getting acess to this alpha aswell 💀
i mean since they changed the style of the game people have been complaining but yet they insist on changing the style of the game people wanted i mean im not complaining about the game genre im complaining about the fact that people have the nerve to complain about crappy topics including the games genre, like why not the gameplay or the graphics or the bugs
it wont let me say what comes after the period for some reason
arc has peaked 789 players, so basically 800 players. Logically speaking, that is enough to gain feedback for the game but who knows, might be 3k like it was in the finals
game was pve, people complained about no pvp , gets pvp , complain about pvp etc etc etc
see thats the proeblem i was talking about after the period is that the other amount of those players is the people could be the ones that dont like the way the game plays out now
thats also kinda what i was getting at i just didnt say it
average people moment
Can't really give my opinion of the game but all I can say is that pvp should definitely be a part of the game
so real no one is ever going to agree with eachother even if their opinion is invalid
i would even stretch so far to say that no opinion is invalid
yeah i do believe you would get a very large player base gravitated towards it if pvp and pve are two separate game modes
That would be dope if there is both pvp and pve mode
the definition of opinion makes it so technically an opinion cant be invalid but sometimes it is so bad that it cant even be considered one
yeah that way no one can complain lol, both communities get what they want
trust me bro there will always be that one person who cant agree with anything
There will always be complaints no matter what
those kind of opinions are usually based/wieghted towards ones own agenda or speculation regarding things a person has no experience with
im to tired to understand what this is saying completely but i partly agree
i like to think a good discussion between 2 people with different opinions need a open mind and understanding of both views
dw, im to tired to understand what i am saying myself
as someone who keeps nearly falling asleep in english class i also agree
i like to think about that aswell but tbh thats very rare considering some peoples minds can be stretched by things and people to the point where they cant have a solid opinion and semi-decent discussion with another human because they think their always right
yeah, ive just stopped discussing with people who always need to be right
ty for a nice convo Man, now time to game
speaking of english class, my mf teacher failed me because I forgot to turn in one of my assignments that I was unaware of. Otherwise I would have gotten an A 😭
bruv i got access to the arc raiders playtest when i dont even know what the game is about 😭
id ask for the extra 🔑 but i dont want to get banned
im very desperate
Going to sleep rn, prayin ill wake up with access😭
As i understood it, friend keys are out of stock
damnn
the only way to get arc raiders is from steam?
how is arc raiders, for people who got in
NDA so 🤦
its [redacted]

they need to open up the discord cause I wanna know how the game is
wish there was at least a channel for the ones who got access to discuss the game tho
would be nice
You're literally not allowed to know how the game is unless you got in
im starting to think that im bad at games
Literally against NDA
thats so stupid tbh
It's called closed for a reason and they get to decide how closed it will be
[redacted]
guys I got in, this game is [redacted]
Truly
Soo freaking [redacted]
truely one of the [redacted] moments of all time
Is it just me or are they not being so transparent about the Alpha. I wish there was some updates about when the Alpha will end and if there will be more keys going out over the next few days. Hell they didn't even announce that the game went live.
Well you get in or you don't
No need to announce to get your hopes up and end up not getting in 😂
Yea I know it's all random but I mean when it came to The Finals they told people things. It's just in general. I had no idea that they had a discord still today. I always looked and never found a link.

Hello, Contestants!
As we want to keep this server true to its purpose, we will only be sharing news and answering questions about THE FINALS.
Please visit the official ARC Raiders server to stay up to date with all the info about the game!
I agree
I just wanted a new chill PvE to play with people
Cause I'm not really into the DRG aesthetic
Or have 3 friends
I Hope everyone who got into arc today is enjoying themselves (no commentsss ndaaa have pleaseant play test dont ruin the suprise 😉 )

Is it a game where you shoot guns?
Doesn't the trailer show them with guns
The steam reviews are making me sad, Some guy is complaining because he couldn't pause the game and came back and lost his gear (An online game) 🙃
Ah yes, a certain un named online game
Are there steam reviews from Raiders ?
Feels bad man. Had a few friends, from different groups, get in, after friend codes had already dried up, but none of them are going to play because they don't want to play pvp game solo. 
Also surprised the player count is less than 400 right now.
So you're breaking NDA
It would be cool to do something like what the division does. Have PvE in the main world and have different areas PvP like the dark zones. Plus they can always have an extraction mode on the side making it optional for the player. COD has DMZ as a standalone mode.
Let the CM do their job, if they want to put anything under their responsibilities
Need those good boy/girl points. 
Idk man, I don't even care if anyone gets banned, at least I'll be able to get a sneak peek, not my fault
Steam summer sale. What we buying?
All/none of them
tempted to grab myself a steam deck while it's -20% off
Lol, why was that deleted?
Yeah that subreddit has to go
because we don't want to give attention to those type of people
I mean, I didn't link to them, but, sure.
maybe, just maybe
I love the Steam Deck. It's nice being able to play my fav games when i'm out
Diablo 4 has been fun to play on there
sell my switch -> buy a steam deck
Then put the switch games on the steam deck
become a chad and have both
could do but then the switch will still just be a paper weight
fair enough
Unless you really like Nintendo exclusives
I played a bit of Animal Crossing but that's about it
and some Zelda but everyone who owns a switch has Zelda
wishlisted arc raiders, looks interesting ngl\
yuzu
Mayne the Callisto Protocol is such an ass game. Was hoping it would be the next type of Dead Space.
Really wish there was somewhere I could freely talk about Arc Raiders
But oh well, that's what alphas are like I suppose
in due time i hope at least it was fun in its core
Man would have been sweet to wake up to accsess to it :/ sucks to suck
any one buy some games on steam sales? what ya'll eyeing idk what to play next
idk i still love 1 so much everytime i play 2 i just wanna go back and play 1 lol
Fair lmao
I feel like the parkour is a lot better in 2, especially after today´s update
i'll have to try it out then for sure gonna look around steam for a new fps tho to fill the finals void 🥲
I feel you 
GTFO looks cool and spooky
is arc raiders sending out invites in waves throughout or is it just that first wave
we don’t know the exact details but we presume it’s being sent out in raids
hmm
Patiently waiting for my Arc invite 🙂
Same
😢
Hopefully tmr we get a few more invites
I cope with THE FINALS withdrawal by playing Battlebit remastered 
Wishlisting Arc Raiders = registering for alpha? or is there something else to be done?
You need to do it on their website I believe
Yab! did it via their webpage 🙂
Still no key🥲
the NDA in question
I would highly recommend deleting aladat
err
ur not allowed to give your take on the arc raiders experience
(its kind of the main thing it says)
yes
saying you are in the alpha also counts
dont ask me thats their NDA
u can read it on their website
Yes
You undertake to hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence and not to disclose the Confidential Information to any third parties including, without limitation, sharing images and/or videos from the playtest or disclosing that you are participating in the playtest, unless you have received our prior written permission.
During the playtest you are only allowed to communicate privately with other participants of the playtest.
:/
If you say you got in I don't think it's a huge problem, but saying what you did before that could potentially be
Yes, but you saying you are in it seems to be okay...? Like it says, they can choose to ignore or deal with it it's up to them but uh I don't think you want to take that chance
Yeah I think it's a bit late for that
You can say public info though, so stuff announced on twitter or in the discord etc
Was ARC always going to be an extraction shooter? I remember seeing a bunch of people shooting at robots in the trailer. That made it seem more like an open world co-op shooter
Initially no
is there any ARC's sctivation code or where i can get?

Reminder that there's a server to keep up with all the info
Basically the game is mid at best, It has been done a million times recently. will likely do a cycle frontier. I can see it generating zero profit. Like how are you gonna profit from it? Because cosmetics aren't going to achieve that for it? V concerned
I'm sorry you dont have access to it. But its super lame man 😦
Sure man, whatever you say
👍
i would believe you tbh... extraction shooter feels so overdone
The only thing cool about it is its free to play. But there is no incentive to even want cosmetics or boosters in a game like that. How it will stay alive I have no idea what they have planned. it feels like a waste of dev hours and $$$
Nothing original about it
is the gameplay loop just ur average extraction shooter?
Have you played Marauders?
Isn’t the whole point of the closed alpha not to talk about the game?
You dont know what i'm talking about
not to send images/videos* i believe
If you have an issue bring it up with the community managers to help get it logged.
You’re right, because I understand how an NDA works.
I know the CMs watch this chat. Be careful with what you’re saying.
but true tbh id rather dont discuss ur experience here
im still in doubt about this game's success but.. i think this is still not late for you to give very critical feedback
to them ofc, not the public
Yes, like we've said, sharing any footage or discussing info about the game is forbidden. I guess you can say if you like it or not but this is not going to be productive conversation at this point, so I'd keep it to the friends you're playing with who are also under NDA
Hey @void smelt, are the CMs who respond to the tickets for the CAT the same CMs who manage this chat?
Yes
....CAT?
Closed alpha test
Ah 
This server - yeah usually
ARC server - not really
But if necessary, we can pass things on
@void smelt
what happened to arc raiders saw it go up to 800 players then went to sleep and went down to 200
everyone probably sleeping or working
Yeah this kinda curve happened in CB1
Probably the fact that it's noon on a work day
Yeah
Everyone logs in at the start, then it evens out
i mean it started declining at 10pm which is prime game time
every other playtest ik has gamers gaming til 8 am
I mean 10pm is like bed time for people who work 
it's the weekend coming up, numbers will probably go higher
maybe if you work 9-5 but i don't see majority of testers being 9-5'rs
I work 9-5 (ignore the fact I'm always on Discord)
CB1 had 13k day one then dropped to like 4k daily
just give me access so i can do proper testing and fix the game for you
Low-key beg
I'm not even interested in the other game after looking into it more 😅
Hopefully it doesn't effect the finals launch
is the game fun? they have not accepted my playtest request so i cant play yet.
Folks can''t really share their impressions at the moment due to NDA. Hopefully, you'll get to experience it for yourself 
Some german streamer already had an oopsie. 
Arc definitely is a game made by Embark.
Somewhere deep in nate’s nest, there are 3 keys
To my house, my car and my mail box 
What? You are a literal mail box yourself so the third one is an arc raiders key 
vigilantly refreshing major streaming sites waiting for an oopsie
I am a mailbox? 
i mean all my friends that got into arc raiders alpha quit playing after only an hour so idk
FYI yesterday the "invite a friend" link ran out of Arc Raiders keys yesterday, but I was able to claim one for a friend this morning
How many can one claim?
1
Ah, i see.
I have an extra friend key if you haven't got an inv. Not sure if i'll get in trouble but w/e. Not trading or selling it.
nah i'm good i'll wait for one from them
Kk
Ye I understand.
I can't say anything but I feel it
aii fair
Blad3z you have PMS on?
I think so?
sent
do you i would totally take the key
whats the link for it
see if one of my friends can get me one
big rip you missed it by a few mins
They'll have to sign in with their steam. And go to the tab that says "Play With Friends"
Hope they can get you a key!
also, I only see the link on Desktop, not on mobile for some reason
from the FAQ in the Arc Raiders discord
'We want to show ARC Raiders to the world….when we are ready. This is a game still deep in development. We are willing to take a risk and let people. This is an exciting time for us, and the culmination of years of hard work. We ask that you don’t record your gameplay, steam, take or share images and screenshots, or even talk about your experience in the game outside of our surveys.'
There's also this in depth article here that I found very useful: https://arc-raiders.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/articles/11723396949277-Terms-of-Use-ARC-Raiders
The yt critics are wyld for arc raiders
? No one is allowed to talk about their experiences with arc raiders
yeah but people don’t listen so it’s to be expected :/
its under NDA right?
yes
Yes
thank you for the invite btw (whoever is responsible)
yes, and only a few got access (since it is alpha). My Squad got kinda lucky
Hey guys
Hi there
Can somebody give arc raiders key 🥺🥺
what yt critics
If anyone have more invites please let me know
where do you check for invite keys
Can someone give arc key 🥲
beggin aint gonna help you, wait like the rest of us
got one aswell
day 2 no AR code
no1 has arc codes yet
Day 2 of no arc invite 😐
Goddamn, this place has become another key begging channel?
There's gonna have to be an actual channel for that at this rate
Also I find it odd that Embark's Arc Raiders server is STILL not letting people chat
I wanna talk about the game without breaking nda
there's an NDA?
Yeah???
It's an alpha
Ofc there's gonna be an NDA
i had no idea what arc was so i was just curious
Most alphas have NDAs because they're too experimental for public release, so they test the systems and ideas with a small group of players
screenshot - no1 has keys yez
Give me friend key pls 😭
Anyone know if they are still rolling out invites to the arc alpha or if I don’t have one by now I won’t have one?
I can’t they are out
I think so?
Looks like they are still rolling out invites
Alas. There is hope.
Bc there are more players today than yesterday
Hopefully that’s still rolling out and not just people who all got it same time trickling in now that it’s Friday
so why no1 streams gameplay or upload played matches
For finals? No current beta so nothing to stream. For Arc? NDA
nda?
It’s not allowed to share content of Arc
lol
ty
What does NDA stand for?
Non-disclosure agreement
two friends of mine got invited today
Non disclosure agreement
Meaning those invited accept an NDA. Part of that is they can not stream it, take screenshots, etc. it is for them and only them to see and know about
So if i get invited, I cant stream in discord for my friends?
Aye, no streaming to even friends and no talking about the game to your friends
lol well it already got leaked by some1 :c
sad people get the opportunity to have access and then abuse it
That is indeed unfortunate. They put a lot of work into it, can at least respect the NDA, jeeze
yeah but embark dusty told him while streaming to shut it off
Really ??..
yea but he didn't got banned
what about if you are in a duo and in a call together playing the game
can you not communicate as that would be breaking NDA
like if you and your friend got in you cant talk to the person who got in/ others who got in also?
wait does the arc raiders alpha also have the playtest with a friend code system? i didnt expect that from an alpha
I’ll be vague just so I can make sure I don’t break NDA but what I’m going to say I don’t think is confirmed but you should be able to talk with friends who also have access. Might want to ask the mods though because I’m in no place to give you a proper answer 
crazy concept but if you're in a private call with your friend and talk about the game nobody will ever find out
true
Anyone got into Arc raiders ?
Yep, as long as it's a private call and you both have access to the game, all is good 
I wanna talk about the game to fellow alpha players
yay
You can talk to anyone that has access to the game albeit privately, you aren't supposed to disclose that you have access to the alpha except when you are giving that person an invite to the game then it's fine
And then anything that goes on in the conversation is also confidential and under NDA
Yeah and Im looking for friends
I have no clue if you can take screenshots to show friends who are in the alpha, it's a little unspecific but in general I'd assume taking screenshots or videos is not allowed
I dont wanna take screenshots
I wouldn't take any screenshots or videos
I just wanna play the game with people that arent randoms lmao
There are plenty of people here who have disclosed that they are in the alpha, perhaps ask them
Ill try
god i wish i could record gameplay
god i wish i could play embark games
god i wish i had friends
god im lonely and keyless
i need to consider buying that game and/or street fighter 6
I'd recommend 7Remake, hearing decent things about SF6 so I think you won't go wrong with one or the other, should both be on sale too hopefully.
sf6 came out way too soon for a discount
maybe next season. i need to save money for other things besides games atm
i want to buy ff7r because ff16 hype means i gotta get in somehow (although i'm avoiding ff16 until pc release and only then not without heavily modding the game)
because i just want to break my immersion as much as possible there
ARK RAIDERS
anyone interested in some tf2?
for those of us who arent in the know of thaat sweet sweet embaark playtest
Found a really cool game trailer in my YouTube recommendations https://youtu.be/YJHVb5XsJwM
i swear the "random" selection isnt even random it just gave it to specific people cause ive waited forever and got nothing
arc raider pve when
^^^
they just remove pvp it just doesnt fit
its supposed to humans vs machines not humans vs humans
how do you know it doesn't fit
they promised PvE and then almost last second added PvP
Its JUST right stop crying
and why do you know that
they promised PvE and instead PvP
a bunch of PvE fans followed this game only for it to shift to PvP
Well that doesn't explain how you know it doesn't fit
Cause you don't know how it actually is
I think PVP make that game more challanging
from what the first trailers showed us
the pvp feels broken
Only for you
feel broken how
no repercussion theres nothing to make players second guess their actions
like you should kill a player only for desprate messures
or if you really need loot
So thats why you need to make friends or something like that
I dont know how IT works in game
judging from how other extract shooters are like, sure
but if they think it fits then let them do so
bro I just wanna shoot big robots with a bunch of people
not always be killed on sight by everyone
just don't get seen
and how do you know that
what map
big cool tower thing i guess
oh sorry i forgot
dont you rember
its big cool tower thing i guess
no i don't
bro my bad i slip up some times
Me asking myself why I haven't played a team match in ARC yet, then realizing I prefer to play solo anyway
bruh lol the NDA police
well do you think it's a bright idea to break NDA in one of the studio's official servers
like I said my bad
yeah i know
just didn't really know if you were talking in extract shooters in general or what so i couldn't warn ya
Any recomendations for Steam Summer sale?
yeah
you looking for something similar you already play or just in general
i want it to still be an extraction shooter just with less focus on PvP
Anything. I play almost anything 🙂 From CoD to SC2 etc 😄
Last thing I played and cant stop is The Riftbreaker. Amazing game.
my page is filled with roguelikes😅 so i'll just recommend you RoR2
Thanks! Have 500h in it 😄 roguelikes are my drugs 😄
me fr fr
@native salmon guess i'll recommend you carrion, rain world, and ghostrunner
Thanks! Got Ghostrunner. ❤️
ror2 is crack, check out crab champions
helll yeahhh i bought it on release
new update kickin my ass
eternal punishment
day 3 no AR code

embargo pls new wave of invites pls
My Luck of getting key Is low

LETS GO RISK OF RAIN 2
Yea but i didnt pray today
Not me tho. I got in 
Quite a few of my close friends got access tbh
Just got a steam noti and man did i got baited hard
Get them to give you a key from the playtest with friend program
already got it yesterday
. Still thanks tho, some people might've missed this
Awesome, enjoy 
so how is ARC raiders going for yall?
Folks can't exactly share details, but I hope everyone is enjoying it
true sorry forgot
Quick question, is it okay to share things to other Closed Alpha Participants?
In private conversation if you both know the game yeah, you are both under NDA
alright thanks. Exactly what i need to know 
And if you reveal anything in here, I will pick up @void smelt and launch him towards you at the speed of light
no worries, i'll remain radio silence

@obtuse oak , did you got into the alpha?

I know
Oh I cant ?
I thougt I just could not give info about the game

if you love CoD-like shooters, don't buy CoD, don't buy anything in XDefiant, buy this instead! it's "tactical" purely for marketing reasons.
Boundary is a multiplayer tactical space-based shooter that puts players in the role of a heavily armed astronaut, called an Astroperator, engaging in fierce team vs team zero gravity firefights and executing low-gravity operations on orbiting space installations against other enemy Astroperators and other entities.Powered by your EMU suit, you ...

If some1 has a friend share key for Arc – please!!

doesnt it have like 200 players only
some games have like only 30. kinda sad this is the state of the FPS market though
only alternative is apex mixtape only
played it for like 30 minutes and this was my review i left on it:
EARLY ACCESS REVIEW
The gunplay feels excellent and the way mechanics such as healing and the minimap work is great, but the atmosphere (or lack thereof) is *very* bland which makes it hard to stay interested in for longer than a match or two. I also do not like the specialist system this game has. Additionally, not being able to turn down the extremely annoying voice of the announcer is.. annoying.
shooter in space sounds cool but the atmosphere just isnt good for a fps
well considering you're not in the atmosphere
lol
punny
fast paced game in a silent environment doesnt mix well
I noticed some folks playing ARC Playtest, how long is that test for and where can I follow for more info on future tests?
Rat gameplay
In the trailer it said until July 3rd CET https://youtu.be/61adghS9aps.
Here you can join the Discord which has more info
Hello, Contestants!
As we want to keep this server true to its purpose, we will only be sharing news and answering questions about THE FINALS.
Please visit the official ARC Raiders server to stay up to date with all the info about the game!
Ive been playing Arc. If the Finals is a 10/10, Id say arc is currently a 8/10. Not goated but definetly some solid potential
I really hope they send out more keys tonight / tomorrow
Have all your friends apply
most dont care - I just hope for my luck or someone who has friend-codes
For the folks who had played Arc and The Finals, which one is better?
I think based on what we've seen on Arc so far: Difficult to tell cause they're different!
If we are talkin aesthetic or ambience, Arc has some incredible potential
Is Arc a pvp? Extraction shooter? Or just tdm
Cause idk if they have unique game modes
Last time I heard it was PvE
PvPvE
Both pvp and pve it's a extraction shooter.
Nice, I think the Finals will be more popular cause of the competitive side of the game
Arc is also third person afaik
yes third person pvpve extraction based shooter
I am LOVIN Arc Raiders. Bravo Embark making two games I am absoutely hyped for.
wish Arc had solo / coop campaign with first person view
in fact the world would be perfect for a new RAGE game
anybody have code for Arc raiders 
Idk how to get the friend codes
has anyone seen Starship Troopers: Extermination
One key would be good 💀
Would love for 1 code 😦
Checking my email like every 2 min to check if i got invited
IS anyone Cpt Blitz




yeah key would be great :c
Whos on the WBG3 (Waiting for Baldurs Gate 3) train? 
we only WTF and WAR here
tried to check in relevant discord but can’t see any info on it, is there any info on how long arc beta will last/end date?
Tomorrow mornin' CET its gone gone

battlebits remastered is holding me over, wish they would announce release date here soon
that game would be fun without the boring healing mechanic
for a very heavily arcade inspired shooter in terms of movement and recoil etc its so dull
