Raiders Divided - A Clan United More exciting news from Arc Raiders here!
As discussed in our last blog post for the unit I touched on the differences between PvP and PvE playstyles and that both the game and TAW can accommodate both. Moving forward each playstyle within TAW will have a unique faction patch as shown below. Each faction can work towards common goals or diverging goals and can have differing playstyles within the game.
Narrative will be created for each faction to drive their goals and objective forward while allowing players to play any playstyle they want and contribute to one, or both faction’s objectives that will be present on the discord under each faction’s channel.
These factions don’t have formal names yet but it can be something we can iron out in the near future given member feedback.
Each faction will have a lair located underground within the Rust Belt that is not far off from Speranza and Toledo, a base of operations that support the wider picture, an attempt at reestablishing civilization. These lairs will progress over time based on the decisions that each player makes and contributes to their factions. Again, players are not locked into one particular faction or playstyle and can contribute across the board.
One faction envisions this establishment to be based in defense both against the arc and other settlements, as defense is the key to their survival.
The other faction envisions cooperative human settlements specialized and based in agriculture, engineering, power generation, and reestablishing medical sciences to benefit humanity’s efforts more thru welfare and diplomacy.
Now they are hit with severe weather to include a persistant hurricane and damaging winds.
Currently in Arc Raiders we have an ongoing hurricane map condition. A hurricane has struck the rust belt and is ravaging the surface with damaging winds. This map condition is both challenging and rewarding for players to navigate and has in game world implications moving forward. Players have been tasked with creating a weather observation station to better assist their communities in detecting the approaching storms earlier and with higher accuracy.
To tie this into our ongoing campaign players will have the opportunity to submit their completed project to either faction (they must choose one) which enters them into this internal competition. One member at random will be selected to receive 2400 Raider Tokens for contributing to their weather monitoring station to the faction of their choice. To enter simply enter your completed project image into the faction of your choice under our text channels in [EXT] and you will be automatically entered. To be selected members must have at least 4 reported events within 60 days with Arc Raiders. It’s that simple! Hope to see you topside. Will you chose to help humanity rebuid? Feel free to come join us in Arc Raiders channels on Discord and help humanity weather this storm. https://discord.com/channels/578321646100938772/1479919612681523240
