Arc Raiders has had its fair share of bugs since launch, some of which were unfortunately pretty game-breaking. Perhaps second only to the recent item duplication glitch was the infamous door glitch, which let players break into locked rooms with just a little shimmy. It was eventually solved not by stopping players from sneaking in, but by turning these rooms into saunas—Embark booby-trapped them with flamethrowers.
After speaking with Embark's Virgil Watkins, design director on Arc Raiders, it's easy to see why this was the team's eventual solution. Really, it was the only feasible one. It may be surprising to laymen, but dealing with wall glitches in games, as it turns out, is "super complicated".
