I’m in love with Arc Raiders<\/a>‘ terrifying machines. Not literally, of course, most of the time they’re viciously chasing me with tasers or blowing me up with rockets, but they’re all remarkably creative and reactive. You can delay Shredders from eviscerating you by blasting their propulsion, legendary energy weapons rip off the armour from elite Arcs, and flying robots struggle on as you take out their engines.<\/p>\n

Oh, and you can ride flying Arcs like a floating chariot<\/a>. I’ve never seen it happen myself, but this feat of bravery isn’t exactly news anymore; get to high ground, jump on top, and hope it doesn’t buck you off.<\/p>\n

What I didn’t realise until I took a dive into Arc Raiders’ achievements on Steam is that there’s a challenge to fight an enemy (Arc or player) while riding a Rocketeer.<\/p>\n

Death From Above: Deal 50 damage to an enemy while atop a Rocketeer.<\/em><\/p>\n

And yes, it’s just as absurd as you think it is in practice:<\/p>\n
