Arc Raiders’ players have created a bounty system that’s meant to punish unsportsmanlike behaviour but surprise, surprise, top of the list sits streamer TheBurntPeanut
Arc Raiders players have established a community-driven bounty system called Speranza Bounties, designed to track and penalize unsportsmanlike conduct within the game. The system emerged as a grassroots response to persistent griefing, particularly extraction-point betrayals where players are shot by teammates or unexpected allies after reaching safe zones.
The bounty system has quickly gained prominence within the Arc Raiders community as a form of accountability for disruptive behavior. Notably, popular streamer TheBurntPeanut has found themselves at the top of the bounty leaderboard, drawing attention to the system’s effectiveness in identifying repeat offenders within the player base. The prominent placement suggests the streamer’s gameplay or conduct has been flagged frequently enough to attract community scrutiny.
While player-created accountability systems are not entirely new to gaming communities, Speranza Bounties represents one of the more visible recent implementations in a live-service title. The system highlights the broader challenge extraction-based shooters face with encouraging cooperative play while managing toxic behavior. Rather than relying solely on developer moderation, Arc Raiders players have taken matters into their own hands, creating a transparent naming-and-shaming mechanism that serves as both deterrent and social pressure tool.
