Embark FIX Arc Raiders Matchmaking! No More RATS? PVE Players Fight BACK! Elders Circle Podcast Ep 04

The Elders Circle is back for Episode 4 — and we're diving straight into the biggest Arc Raiders conversation of the week. Embark have updated the ABMM system and for PvE players, this one matters. Self-defence is now tracked separately from initiating PvP. Low-activity rounds carry less weight. And that rat exploit — spawning in and surrendering to game the system? Gone. But does this actually fix things for Old Timers, or is the community already misreading what changed? We break it all down, bust the myths, and ask the question nobody wants to answer — is there a version of ABMM that would ever actually satisfy everyone? Then we get into something more personal. 100 videos. 5,000 on Facebook. A community that started around a game and became something real. A community member asked directly whether making this has ever affected my mental health — and we answer it honestly. Hosts: Dan, Ray, James & Tactical Crumpet
