Arc Raiders developer Embark Studios is now taking action against players who used the recently patched duplication glitch that saw ducks get cloned en masse and Trigger Nades rain from the sky, but some are wondering why one popular streamer who helped the exploit surge in virality is getting away with a light warning.
While not the first dupe glitch to appear in Arc Raiders, the one in question became essentially impossible to avoid last week before its hotfix, especially after gaining traction following a stream by content creator TheBurntPeanut. The streamer has a massive following, comprised of 1.9 million followers on Twitch and 1.59 million on YouTube, and we noted at the time that his demonstration of the exploit was watched live by 138K people on the latter platform alone. Essentially, if you didn't already know about the bug, chances are you were going to after this.
