Reducing Friction in ARC Raiders As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance your experience in ARC Raiders, our development team has prioritized eliminating unnecessary steps that disrupt the flow of gameplay. One of the primary concerns raised by players was the time spent on crafting, which often felt tedious and disconnected from the core action of raiding. This feedback highlighted a critical need to streamline the crafting process, ensuring that every moment you invest in the game is meaningful and enjoyable. A recurring theme in player feedback was the frustration associated with gathering missing materials for crafting. Many players noted that while they already knew where to source specific items—whether through recycling existing resources, purchasing from Celeste, or other methods—the process of accessing these materials was unnecessarily cumbersome. Navigating through multiple menus to acquire the necessary items created a barrier to immersion, often leading to interruptions in gameplay. This friction was identified as a key pain point that needed to be addressed to maintain the game’s engaging nature. In response to this feedback, we’ve implemented a significant update to the crafting system. A new feature, the “Acquire Resources” button, has been introduced directly on the crafting screen. When you’re missing an item for a craft, this button becomes visible, providing a clear and centralized list of all available sources where you can obtain the required material. These sources include options such as recycling unused items, purchasing from Celeste, or other accessible methods. This change allows players to resolve material shortages instantly without leaving the crafting interface, preserving the flow of gameplay and reducing the need to navigate through multiple menus.#arc_raiders #crafting_system #celeste #ui_ux_team #player_feedback
