U4gm Arc Raiders Residential Building Collision Fixes

Hotfix 2.4.1, released on November 5, addresses several issues that could make a run in ARC Raiders less predictable. For players planning routes or looking through ARC Raiders BluePrints, the most relevant changes concern the Seed Vault extract, residential interiors, and visibility after a ride on the Ballistic Gondola.

The Seed Vault Should Respect Its Closed State

The update fixes an issue that allowed players to enter the Seed Vault extract while it was closed. That means a closed extract should no longer be treated as an available way out. Players heading there should check its current status and follow the extraction conditions shown in the game rather than assuming the entrance can be used at any time.

This change makes planning more important as a raid progresses. Leave enough time to reach an available extract, watch for on-screen information, and consider another route if the Seed Vault is not ready. The patch confirms a correction to access while the extract is closed; it does not establish that every other extraction issue has been resolved.

Residential Routes Should Feel More Reliable

Several invisible collision problems inside residential buildings have also been fixed. These could interfere with movement where the visible environment appeared to offer a clear path. After the update, players should encounter fewer unexpected obstructions in the affected interiors.

That matters when moving between rooms under pressure. A route through a familiar building should be easier to judge when the walls and openings match what players can see. It is still worth checking corners and doorways carefully: the notes describe fixes to several collision problems, not a guarantee that every obstruction across the map is gone.

Clearer Encounters Around the Gondola

The hotfix also addresses a bug that could make a player invisible after exiting the Ballistic Gondola. Following the fix, players should no longer expect that specific transition to leave a character unseen. For nearby squads, that should make encounters around the exit more dependable.

Visibility remains only one part of a fight. Cover, sight lines, timing, and movement still affect whether an opponent can be spotted. The change should not be read as a promise that all visual issues have disappeared, or that every player leaving the gondola will be immediately visible from every angle.

What to Take Into Your Next Raid

These are focused corrections rather than a complete overhaul of movement or extraction. Approach the Seed Vault according to its displayed state, revisit familiar residential routes with the expectation of fewer invisible barriers, and treat the gondola exit as a normal point of contact.

If something unusual happens elsewhere, keep it separate from the fixes described here. A different blocked passage or visibility problem may have another cause, and this update alone does not confirm its status.

Together, the changes make several familiar situations easier to read without removing the need for careful decisions. Players who browse or buy ARC Raiders BluePrints can still benefit from learning their routes and checking extraction conditions before committing to a final run.
