ARC Raiders 1.12.0 update patch notes – Item and ammo duplication exploit fix

ARC Raiders 1.12.0 update is now live on PC and consoles, and this small patch fixes popular exploits that were being used by many.

The second patch of the new year is pretty tiny as far as changes are concerned. However, it will ensure fairness for all, as players won’t be able to use the item and ammo duplication exploits anymore. Let’s quickly cover the changes in this patch.

Complete ARC Raiders 1.12.0 update patch notes

ARC Raiders 1.12.0 update can be broken down into two major parts: store rotation and fixes. The new store rotation is now live, and you can find new items available in-game. You can choose to spend your Raider Tokens if you’re interested in acquiring any of them.

Here’s the list of fixes that are part of the patch.

• Fixed an item duplication exploit.
• Fixed an ammo duplication exploit.
• Fixed some cases where players were able to damage others from behind geometry.
• Fixed various out-of-bounds map locations on Stella Montis

The first two changes are notable as they were popular. It allowed you to use an exploit to duplicate ammo and items that you already have. Naturally, it was immensely useful (especially for items). If you had one item that’s required for Expedition 2, you could just duplicate it. The same applied to ammo types that you already had.

Thankfully, the exploits have been patched now. There were also instances of certain map locations going out-of-bounds in Stella Montis. That problem should cease to exist once you’ve updated your client version.

Unfortunately, we have yet to have any confirmed news about when the next expansion will be released in ARC Raiders, and what content it might have.

What to expect from Bladesong

If you’ve been playing video games for as many years as I have, you must have used plenty of swords. In Bladesong, you can craft swords without any limits. Thanks to its modular crafting system, you can craft a sword of any design, shape, and size.

With warriors and nobles seeking your services, you’ll have to meet specific needs and expectations. Making a sword will be easy, but giving it shape and turning it into a masterpiece won’t be so simple. You’ll also have to discover secrets in Eren Keep as you spend most of your time smithing the next perfect sword.

There’s a Campaign mode available for those who want to enjoy a narrative journey. Alternatively, you can simply try out your imagination in the Creative mode. If you want to check out the core gameplay, a free demo is available on Steam.
