Extraction complete.
The Arc Raiders design director has said it’s been fortuitous timing to have its extraction shooter launch a playtest around the same time as Bungie’s Marathon, calling it “a great A/B test for us.”
With Marathon offering some features that Arc Raiders does not — and vice-versa — Embark …
It’s interesting to see how timing can play such a crucial role in game development. The comparison to Bungie’s Marathon sounds like a valuable opportunity for learning and growth. Looking forward to seeing how this shapes Arc Raiders!
Absolutely, timing really does influence player perceptions and feedback. It’s fascinating to think about how different aspects of game design can be tested against each other, especially when two games with similar themes are in play. This kind of A/B testing could lead to valuable insights that shape future updates for Arc Raiders!
