Arc Raiders<\/a> is a multiplayer extraction adventure in which players scavenge the remnants of a devastated world. The main threat is Arc\u2019s machines and, as developer Embark Studios puts it, \u201cthe unpredictable choices of fellow survivors.\u201d But one Arc Raiders player, hell bent on killing relative newcomers, casuals, and those who have next to no loot or even none at all, has gone viral for killing others for sport \u2014 sparking a debate about what is and isn\u2019t acceptable PvP behavior in the process.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with a brief primer on how Arc Raiders works. You can play solo or in parties up to three, working as a team to progress through the game. However, other players are a constant threat, and while Arc Raiders\u2019 explosive launch has seen a number of wholesome, viral clips of players coming together to help each other out, some players just want to watch the world burn.<\/p>\n

Taylor “THump” Humphries, a retired American professional H1Z1 and Apex Legends player, who has taken it upon themselves to hunt down teams of players and kill them for, well, sport. In a clip viewed 4.8 million times so far on Twitter \/ X, THump kills a group of players, one of whom pleads: \u201cwe just started. I have nothing.\u201d THump is then called \u201cscum\u201d and \u201ca piece of s**t.\u201d THump responds to say: \u201cyeah, I killed every single one of you by the way.\u201d He then laughs.<\/p>\n

THump\u2018s post reads: \u201cI love killing grown men that have jobs and children as they are trying to get 5 million credits for the expedition. Killing all teamers in solos, live now.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2014 THUMP (@THump) December 18, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The post sparked a strong reaction from a large group of players, some of whom hit out at THump\u2018s actions, some of whom backed him up. \u201cI come from a place where PvP is not optional,\u201d THump said. \u201cIt\u2019s a way of life. You want optional PvP go play WoW.\u201d Then: \u201ccouldn\u2019t imagine spending my Friday night getting mad at a random streamer on the internet enough to comment under his tweet because he killed people in a PvP game.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother toxic streamer,\u201d one critic posted. \u201cYou should try helping them instead, it might make you feel good about yourself for a change.\u201d Another said THump was demonstrating \u201cpsychotic behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there’s something uniquely anti-social about people whose only enjoyment in games is ruining the fun of nice and friendly people,\u201d said X \/ Twitter user Mizutamari<\/a>. \u201cThere was always a difference between people who trolled guys that were yelling slurs or slamming keyboards and people who only trolled guys that were friendly and seemed to try and keep a happy disposition.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

In the months since Arc Raiders\u2019 release, a sort of PvP etiquette has emerged<\/a>. If you encounter another player and have no intention to PvP, call out that you\u2019re friendly. It\u2019s considered not cool<\/em> to say friendly and act friendly then shoot, but of course that does happen. In Arc Raiders, PvP is always on.<\/p>\n

In truth, this griefing debate has been around for as long as competitive multiplayer games have existed, but Arc Raiders has certainly brought it back to the forefront. Who cares if you pretend to be friendly then shoot to kill? It\u2019s a video game, right? \u201cYour fellow human who trusted you cares,\u201d suggested redditor ilmk9396.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s a video game. You don’t die in real life when your character dies,\u201d countered MachinationMachine.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere’s a real person on the other end spending real time and effort playing the game and they trust you not to steal that from them after you say you’re friendly,\u201d responded ilmk9396. \u201cThey let their guard down and then you take advantage of that like a coward. Be a man and shoot on sight if you want the loot.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then, from MachinationMachine: \u201cit’s a competitive PvP videogame where you role-play as a ruthless post-apocalyptic raider. How is being honorable good role-playing?\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

And so on, and so forth. But isn\u2019t this exactly what Embark Studios had hoped would emerge from Arc Raiders? \u201cIn the end, only you decide what kind of Raider you are \u2014 and how far you\u2019ll go to prevail,\u201d reads the official blurb. Here, the developer is essentially handing over Arc Raiders to its community. Do what you feel is right, basically. The game is designed for tension. But is it designed for relentless PvP?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe game is designed for you to work together, as there’s typically enough loot in the environment to go around so that everyone can rise up and you can have a good time together, with the occasional PvP,\u201d iNteg suggested. \u201cThe second lobbies only become about PvP you lose most of your playerbase who wants to enjoy the other aspects of the game and not just PvP. Going in with a mindset that it’s only about PvP takes the charm and fun out of the game completely and also ruins the experience, you lose any sort of potential magic that could have happened because oop, see person must rat and gun them down without an interaction.\u201d<\/p>\n

This one isn\u2019t going anywhere, and neither is THump. Undeterred by any potential backlash, he has doubled down on his playstyle, posting a similar clip with the comment: \u201clove loading up Arc Raiders on Saturday night to show the blue-collar workforce of America what a real professional gamer looks like.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\u2014 THUMP (@THump) December 21, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And alongside another more recent clip, he posted: “Logging in with a full inventory of trigger nades and killing everyone trying to get re-looted after the expedition is a joy.”<\/p>\n
