Arc Raiders studio Embark may have finally squished the duplication bugs infesting the extraction shooter for months with its recent patch, though cheaters are already trying to figure out how to raise the dead. Some people can't help themselves.
"Success on stopping the dupers... for now," says one Reddit user in a popular thread in the Arc Raiders subreddit, sharing a screenshot from "one of the dupe discords I'm spying in," in which a user announces that they're suspending sales of their Arc Raiders dupe tool that utilizes Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). This particular approach to duping seems to have been addressed by what Arc Raiders community lead Ossen referred to as "a fix for some instances of duplication exploits" in notes for Embark's June 23 Store Update 1.34.0.
Embark also addressed Arc Raiders' apparently endless parade of duplication glitches leading players to infinite ammo, rubber ducks, and debauchery in its June 16 patch that aimed to bolster Denuvo Anti-Cheat. The developer wrote at the time, "We've been focusing on addressing item duplication and taking strict measures against those involved. This means carefully detecting incidents, addressing them directly, and building safeguards to prevent them from happening in the future."
The developer sounds serious – but we've heard it all before. Embark has been struggling to fly swat all of Arc Raiders' duplication glitches for as long as they've been annoyingly buzzing around… which feels like forever. Law-abiding Arc Raiders players are understandably tired. As soon as one dupe glitch goes down, it seems another sprouts up right where it fell.
But this time, cheaters at least seem to be intimidated by Embark's dupe fix. In the screenshot the aforementioned Reddit user posted, the dupe exploiter calls their new attempts to circumvent Embark "a long shot," and they admit, "To be completely transparent, this one is a bit tricky."
The cheater continues to say it'll be "really complex" to develop a new, working dupe tool, and they seem really upset. That's great!
