ARC Raiders Hotfix 1.000.009 Released to Fix Matriarch Spawn in The North Line
Just hours ago, Embark Studios released the first content drop for ARC Raiders with the North Line. Unfortunately, not everything worked as intended with the content drop, which necessitated a follow-up hotfix to be released.
This is another client-side update, which console gamers will see as ARC Raiders update 1.000.009. Expect this to be a small download, and it is intended as an emergency hotfix.
ARC Raiders Receives Emergency Hotfix for The North Line as Patch 1.000.009
According to Embark, the follow-up hotfix is for the following:
We have just pushed a hotfix to address the Matriarch not spawning correctly. Keep an eye on the map conditions if you’re ready to face the Matriarch, good luck out there!
In the notes earlier today, we missed the Security Locker drop rate changes. We understand that this change affects those of you who specifically aimed for that skill tree spec. We’re exploring the possibility of adding a skill reset mechanic. Balancing is important for us and both overperforming and underperforming skills will be adjusted over time.
We also noticed some of you are reporting achievement and quest issues – the team is investigating.
That’s about it. While we expected a follow-up patch to be released, we didn’t expect this to be out this soon. Once another one is pushed out, particularly for achievement and quest issues, we’ll keep our readers posted.
