Arc Raiders didn’t waste any time becoming the most popular multiplayer game of the year. It’s so popular that a number of popular streamers even formed factions and went up against one another in a war, with uniforms and everything. The likes of Ninja, Shroud, and TimTheTatman were involved, pulling in a whole bunch of players in a war of The Bungulators versus the MFMers. Thankfully, it’s now come to an end.
You’d think that a whole “war” featuring some of the biggest streamers would create a whole lot of buzz and come to a dramatic conclusion with bullets flying all over the place and maps littered with Arc scrap. However, this little war has ended in the most anticlimactic way you can think of, a Discord call.
The Arc Raiders Streamer War Fizzles To An End
Unfortunately for everyone, this war wasn’t exactly planned well. As reported by PC Gamer, there were no private servers or anything. People just showed up in the uniforms of the faction they sided with and started shooting anyone who wore something different. It seems that the teams weren’t even balanced, with the Bungulators having way more troops.
In fact, this little event also disrupted the game for those who weren’t part of it. PC Gamer’s Elie Gould hopped in to take a look and was immediately swarmed by Bungulators who demanded that they swear allegiance, which they did. Unfortunately, some poor raiders who had no idea what was going on were met with bullets.
Eventually, the streamers got on a Discord call, where VTuber TheBurntPeanut, one of the organisers declared that the Bungulators had won. There were no stats, achievements, or really any reason shown for why they had won, but that’s how the Arc Raiders streamer war came to an end. May we never see another.

Hopefully, this means that we can head back to Arc Raiders without worrying about somebody shooting us for no other reason than because of the clothes we’re wearing.

I’m wondering if the Bog Walker outfit was worn by one of the “factions” as I tend to get offed by players waaaay more frequently in this outfit. So much so that I stopped wearing it.
