A Mode for the Unemployed? Arc Raiders Fans Unhappy With the Schedule of the New Event

Not everyone has the opportunity to give the game attention during specific hours.

Recently, the developers of Arc Raiders released a major update and introduced a new condition for the "Buried City" map — birds arrive, and raiders get the opportunity to obtain additional valuable loot.

However, far from all players were pleased with "Bird City," though not because of the concept or the quality of its implementation. The reason for the outrage was the activation schedule for this condition.

"Bird City" is activated for one hour several times a day. Players like Jay-SA121 have found that, in their local time, the event falls during working hours or at a time when they already need to go to bed.

Players joke that this is a mode "for the unemployed":

Embark is telling us: Quit your job, become an unemployed gamer who plays only Arc Raiders, and then you will find time to play with this condition. Or better yet, just become a blogger or streamer — it's so easy, because anyone can effortlessly become successful.

Some participants in the discussion suggested that a 23-hour rotation should be introduced — so there would be a one-hour shift and the schedule would gradually move, giving players from different regions a chance to play with the desired condition.
