Podcasts about arc raiders

Our trio screws around a lot and I guess at some point they talk about Arc Raiders.  More importantly they pay a small tribute to a friend of theirs who is gone.  Farewell, Nariko.

Shooters are having one of their best summers in years, and every major franchise still can't agree on what to do about it.The crew runs through the battle pass shakeup hitting Call of Duty, Battlefield and Overwatch, breaks down why Battlefield is quietly beating Call of Duty on Steam, and picks apart Apex Legends' run as the most consistent live service in the genre. They also dig into Gears of War: E-Day's beta results against Helldivers 2, unpack why War Bonds aren't actually battle passes, and argue about why Western studios keep playing it safe while Eastern developers experiment their way to the top.Topics Covered:• The battle pass shakeup across Call of Duty, Battlefield and Overwatch• Why Battlefield is outperforming Call of Duty on PC despite the franchise's rocky years• Ranked play, Battlefield Labs and the Elite Top 250 leaderboard• What's next for Battlefield now a new mainline entry isn't landing next year• Call of Duty's tech unification and the tradeoffs it created down the line• Apex Legends' revenue consistency, live ops machine and collab strategy• Apex's growth potential in China and Japan, and the case for reviving Apex Legends Mobile• Why battle royale modes outperform arena shooters on retention• Gears of War: E-Day's beta numbers and the inevitable Helldivers 2 comparisons• The PvP versus PvE tradeoffs facing E-Day's live service• War Bonds versus battle passes and how Helldivers 2 redefined seasons• Why Arc Raiders can't copy the Helldivers playbook• The West's monetization risk aversion versus the East's willingness to experimentCHAPTERS:01:13 Battle Pass Shakeups02:33 Battlefield Engagement Surge04:13 MAU Charts Breakdown05:28 Why Battlefield Retains06:47 Ranked Mode Returns08:44 Battlefield Next Moves11:04 COD Tech Unification Lessons14:19 Extraction Mode Debate15:35 Apex Revenue and Consistency17:00 Apex Live Ops Machine29:18 BR Movement Thesis30:20 Why Arenas Feel Worse31:17 Social Sandbox vs Zero Sum33:15 TDM Translation Problem34:06 Gears E-Day Catch Up34:54 Market Size and Modes37:07 Helldivers Comparison Debate40:51 Live Service Monetization Risks44:40 Battle Pass Changes Roundup47:51 War Bonds vs Battle Passes52:58 Arc Raiders and Extraction Limits54:33 Western Monetization Fear59:13 Next Episode Tease

If George Clooney walks into a coffee shop, everyone looks up. If Banksy walks in without the mask, nobody does, and the work outside is worth millions.That's Nathan Lindberg's description of the gaming creator economy, and he's spent twenty years inside it. GamePro through the print-to-digital collapse. Curse, before it became CurseForge. Seven years at Twitch convincing people that watching someone else play was a real business. Epic, building the NFL zone inside Fortnite. Now VP of Global Brand Partnerships at Overwolf.His argument is that the creator economy we photograph is the smaller one. Sixty-six games account for more than eighty percent of all the time people spend playing, most of them are a decade old, and what keeps them there isn't the publisher's roadmap. It's thousands of people whose names nobody knows, building mods, add-ons, wikis and private servers on top of games they didn't make.We get into what the ladder from first dollar to first million actually looks like, why advertising stopped being a toll, and the single sentence that finally moved publishers after years of losing the argument.In this episode00:00  Intro02:19  Nathan Lindberg02:34  GamePro, Curse, Twitch: what changes and what never does10:24  Triple-A, indie, and where a creator lands after building something good11:15  George Clooney walks into a coffee shop.

Overwolf shares 50 to 70% of revenue with creators, sometimes up to 80%, and its in-app ads carry an on-screen line saying 70% goes to the creator. The largest apps on the platform have sold for over €40 million. Every department in the company is measured against one metric: creator payouts.GuestNathan Lindberg is VP of Global Brand Partnerships at Overwolf, the tools and services company behind CurseForge and Tebex.Mentioned: Hytale, the Krafton partnership bringing mods to PUBG, Gamer Grid, Arc Raiders, and the proverb Nathan took from his time at Curse: if you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together.If the CFO conversation is one you keep losing, we built a free Academy program about exactly that.

Deze Gamekings Daily is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/eOJt4FpI_T0 Welkom bij Gamekings Daily. De gaming vodcast waarin twee Gamekings-hosts spreken over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld der videogames. Het is dinsdag en Jasper is aangeschoven om samen met JJ de ontwikkelingen van de afgelopen dagen door te nemen. De beide mannen hebben het onder meer over de bizarre neergang van live service game ARC Raiders. De game kwam uit in oktober 2025 en scoorde al snel een piek van een kleine half miljoen spelers concurrent. Van dat aantal is er nu, anno augustus 2026, nog maar 10 à 15% over. Hoe kan dat? Wat heeft developer Embark Studios gedaan om deze neerval te veroorzaken? En is er nog een redding mogelijk? Het antwoord op deze vraag krijg je in de Gamekings Daily van dinsdag 11 augustus 2026. ARC Raiders is 90% van de spelers kwijt geraakt Een ander onderwerp dat de beide heren bespreken, is de mail die meldde dat Blizzard de best verkopende studio was binnen het arsenaal van XBOX. Met welke games hebben ze dat voor elkaar gekregen? Plus, wat betekent dit succes voor de toekomst van de befaamde developer? Check de Back to School-acties met dikke kortingen op diverse laptops van Lenovo Lenovo is de vaste partner van Gamekings Daily. Tijdens de uitzendingen van de vodcast gebruiken we de Lenovo ThinkPad, de absolute bestseller van de producent. En of je het nu wilt of niet, de zomervakantie gaat ooit eindigen en dan gaan de scholen weer open. Lenovo speelt daar op in met de Back to School acties die dikke kortingen bieden op verschillende laptops die handig zijn voor scholieren en studenten. Daarnaast is er, speciaal voor de kijkers en luisteraars van Gamekings die geen student of scholier zijn, een 15% discount op alle laptops.

Erik from Imaginary Game Studios joins Ben this week for, to Norah's chagrin, a math-free conversation about curved paths. After discussing a little game design philosophy as it relates to the games Ben has been playing (Stellar Wander DX and the Pragmata Sketchbook Demo), chatting about Erik's first viewing of the 1983 movie Brainstorm, and dispensing with the miscellaneous “what have we been up to” pleasantries, they move on to the definition accompanied by a brief homophone detour. In the video games segment, they apply the Kübler-Ross model for processing grief to Ben's experiences with the multiplayer third-person extraction shooter developed and published by Embark Studios, ARC Raiders. To close out the program, Erik asks Ben to share the life lesson he learned from the 300+ hours he invested in playing the game.  *** 00:00:20 - Germ factories, the next project, cosmic horror gardening, and a dumb memory joke 00:05:45 - Getting older, an unorthodox method for attracting bats, and stale game mechanics 00:07:56 - Ship combat, pastry mining, lengthening, pushing buttons, and minimalist games 00:13:28 - Getting out of hand, Ben's thoughts on the Pragmata demo, and production costs 00:17:57 - Crayon fingers, different big daddy, compact level design, and accidental purchase 00:22:01 - Douglas Trumbull's divorce from major film directing, and renting a laserdisc player 00:28:39 - Tackling concepts in relatable ways, way too high, CQ, and not choosing favorites 00:32:16 - It's a sled, a math-heavy definition, stocks, Canadian energy, and the homophone 00:40:04 - Watch-along videos, misunderstanding the premise, and lucrative retirement plans 00:44:25 - They prefer sandwiches, SURPRISING NO ONE, copyright law, and arc versus arch 00:48:46 - Erik's excitement, Billy has depression, texts from Ben, and the Kübler-Ross model 00:52:27 - Denial, anger, 65 minutes versus 300 hours, Warframe, and exploring and collecting 00:56:27 - Erik gets Ben back on track, bargaining, industrial plumbers, and on to depression 00:59:34 - Acceptance, Buddhism, psychological healing, the Hairpin Bandit, and matching 01:03:04 - B.F.

Modern Warfare 4 got revealed, 007 First Light is finally out, and the Hell Let Loose: Vietnam beta dropped — so naturally we spent an episode on the franchise we swore off, a Bond game that isn't quite Hitman, and a beta that can't hold a frame rate. We get into the HLL: Vietnam open beta (the rubber-banding, the keybinds that won't stick, the studio's track record) and whether it's worth grabbing at the June 18 launch. Then 007 First Light: it's sitting at 88 on Metacritic and "best Bond since GoldenEye," but is it actually a let-down if you came in expecting Hitman? We break down why the reviews and the disappointment can both be right. Then the big one — Modern Warfare 4. Korea-but-modern is a genuinely cool setting, Ballistic Authority gunplay, DMZ is back, it skips last-gen. We also get into the death of the Warzone era, where extraction shooters go next (Tarkov, Arc Raiders), and a detour into Elden Ring. And we close on Aliens.gov: the site the UFO community thought was disclosure, that turned out to be something very different. Two friends, zero corporate takes. Jake's still open to it, Raz wants the whole thing to burn. 0:00 - Intro & what's on the docket 1:40 - Hell Let Loose: Vietnam beta — first impressions 8:54 - Will it survive a rough launch?

In this episode of The Inner Gamer, we pull back the curtain on the widening gap between stylistic hype and mechanical execution. We kick things off with a raw review of Mixtape, balancing its immaculate stop-motion aesthetic and killer soundtrack against a disappointing lack of player agency and core gameplay systems. We then shift our focus to the reality of live-service development sustainability through the lens of Embark Studios, discussing why their recent dev schedule slowdown is a necessary reality check for titles like The Finals and ARC Raiders. In the second half of the show, we tackle the macro-economics of the industry, tearing into the chaotic fallout of PlayStation's aggressive live-service pivot. We connect the dots between executive misalignment, a $765 million Bungie write-down, the quiet commercial stagnation of Housemarque's Saros, and the emergency roadmap shifts reshaping Marathon. Finally, we head into the occult streets of the Interzone, bringing on a 500-hour veteran to deconstruct the exact mechanical hooks and high-level meta shifts that make Valve's Deadlock such a dominant, rewarding competitive obsession.

As always, the opinions fly fast and heavy! Look out for this super-sized show, as the seemingly smallest conversation veers off into a multiverse of chit-chat. Sounds cool, huh? That’s the fancy way of saying “derailment.” And there’s plenty of that to go around! Let’s dance, Heroes of the XMB! In a bit of big news that would make the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles proud, iHeartRadio, Pandora and Spotify host episodes of Trophy Whores.

Then Ben brings on Charles Pulliam-Moore from The Verge to discuss the delights of Pokémon life-sim spinoff ‘Pokopia,' its significance for Switch 2, and the Pokémon franchise's 30th anniversary, evolution, and future, plus a second “Rage Quit” about the Trump administration coopting video games like ‘Pokopia' to make memes.
