If you’re still glitching through doors in Arc Raiders, good luck making it out alive

Embark Studios has certainly put a lot of polish on Arc Raiders through its numerous playtests and overall dev time on the game.

Of course some sneaky bugs have slipped through the cracks, though, with the most profitable of all to raiders being the ability to glitch into locked rooms that usually require a specific key.

It’s something that players have been asking to be fixed so that their keys aren’t worthless and there’s actually loot behind those aforementioned locked doors.

Embark has answered those prayers but instead of stopping players from entering, they’ll get a fiery surprise instead

You’ll now be burnt to a crisp for using the Arc Raiders locked room exploit

Video game bug fixes aren’t always as straightforward as hitting a button, and sometimes, due to the nature of how they’re built, it may not even be possible to correct the issue.

When it comes to the Arc Raiders locked door glitch, instead of going through the rigmarole of finding the root of the problem in the back end, Embark has chosen to punish those who want to take advantage.

After the 1.4.0 Patch, if you attempt to bypass locked doors without using the required key, you’ll be met with a plethora of flamethrower-type devices that will ensure your raider will be roasted.

There is no possible way of surviving this unless you actually have the key and unlock the door from the inside, disabling the ‘security system’.

Not only is this incredibly funny and entertaining, it’s got the ‘fix’ out right away instead of the devs having to do a bunch of digging, giving those who are exploiting the issue more time to do so.

It’s also great to see a studio acknowledging there is a quirk with their game and offering up a creative solution rather than shutting it down completely.

For those of you who have been using the glitch, you’ll have to find those Humidifiers for your Expedition Project in normal spots like the rest of us schmucks!
