It's official: It's totally fair game to blame your graphics settings when you get sniped out of nowhere in Arc Raiders.
You can blame it on the bushes that failed to hide your position against players who have found out that your graphics settings can be a slight competitive advantage. It wasn't that you were crouched in the middle of nowhere with absolutely zero cover. Definitely not.
If you play enough competitive shooters, you'll learn pretty quickly about the tricks graphics settings can play on you. Arc Raiders is the newest shooter with a foliage problem and you might not realize it's holding you back—especially if you're a sweaty PvPer.
Knee-high bushes and other shrubbery can be toggled on or off through the foliage graphics setting, and you probably want it on "low". YouTuber
