‘Reacting to both developments, members of the Japanese patent community, including Japanese patent attorney Ryo Arashida, IPDefine CEO Aaron Mollin, and Satoshi Watanabe of Sagacious IP, clarified to ip fray that the patents in each case are completely separate – but that the decision by Mr. Squires comes as a huge surprise.

‘“A major factor behind this situation is the strong criticism in the U.S. toward granting patents on game rules or gameplay mechanics, which creates a particularly strict environment for such subject matter,” according to Mr. Arashida.

‘Meanwhile, in Japan, stiff competition means game companies are looking for other ways to generate revenue, and what was once a space dominated by the likes of Nintendo, is going to become a lot more interesting in the coming months, Mr. Mollin commented.’

Hi all, just wanted to share the news, our game Skopje’83 that we have been working for 6 years is finally out on Steam and Epic Store.

For all interested there is also a demo you can try. Hope you give it a try :)

EMBARK please make duos mode, thats in my opinion only thing this game is currently missing. I am really tired of playing against trios while I want to play with my friend.

Raiders gather together and make this post blow up so it cathes their eye.

See you on top side raiders.

DON’T SHOOT ✋🤚

I randomly met 5 other people on spaceport while questing. We teamed up and wiped every single Leaper and Bastion from the map before extracting together. There’s literally no other extraction shooter where stuff like this ever happens and it creates so much more dynamic and interesting situations compared to everyone just shooting each other on sight. Seems like ARC is the real enemy after all.

EDIT: It is so interesting and fun to hear all the topside stories you experienced. I see a lot of discussion about possible PvE modes, general hostility, rats etc. and wanted to share my thoughts about it too.

I think moments like I referenced in this post are really special because they seemingly happen against the odds. If it was a PvE mode where PvP would not be possible or if cooperation was the default and nobody would shoot on site/betray/ambush each other, this moment would not nearly have been as magical as it was.

There has to be uncertainty about someone else’s …

34 GB for the full game is insane, also very surprised my 3060 laptop runs 1080p 110fps avg insane for a 2025 game.
For those asking:

DLSS set to quality using CNN

I made it! Sold everything for my next adventure. Now the only thing left to do is take down the queen, fully upgrade scrappy and workshop stuffs and the skill tree. See y’all beyond the Rust Belt raiders!

Half of the raider skill tree is garbage. Nodes dont tell you what they actually do, there’s no numbers to anything, some skills straight up do not do what they say, and if you got baited early on you are just permanently down 15+ points until the end of December.

Just let us respec. It doesnt give a crazy advantage, it doesnt need hardcore balancing since we commit every raid anyways, and it will help with player retention.

Pay to respec, refund all points and re-allocate. Easy. Don’t lock it behind some random late-game crap, just let it be repeatable for a small input everyone can do. We dont need to punish level 15 Timmy just because he didnt Google “Arc Raiders meta build” and watch a 20m YouTube video testing which skills dont work.

Don’t wait 3 months, don’t punish people who cant commit large amounts of time to the game, and just let us have this piece of QOL to enjoy the game more. Thank you.

Edit: Yes we get it. You Googled “Arc …

I have felt that a lot of my battles something feels off. I definitely have known I’ve been getting killed through walls. But I think this clip sums up how bad it’s actually been! I even went back out to test if I could get hit markers on the guy shooting at me, because I was like if he can do it maybe I can. Nope! This part of the game definitely bums me out. Let me know if you are having similar issues.
