Arcade Map Strategy

Arcade-style maps can be visually noisy, which helps hiders but also makes predictable hiding spots popular. Bright surfaces, machines, signs, and shadows can all support camouflage if the hider chooses a matching palette and stops moving.

Hider Route Thinking

Hiders should use busy machine edges and color blocks rather than open floor. A bright palette can work better here than in cleaner maps, but only if it matches the area behind you. Avoid standing where your avatar interrupts a clean line or glowing surface.

Seeker Route Thinking

Seekers should slow down in noisy rooms and search for shapes before colors. Scan machine silhouettes, wall edges, and any spot where a player-sized form breaks the pattern. Busy maps reward patient section clearing.

FAQ

Why is Arcade different from other maps?

It likely has more visual clutter and brighter colors, so both palette choice and silhouette control matter more.

Are bright palettes good on Arcade?

They can be, but only when they match the surface behind the hider.

What should be verified next?

Screenshots of machines, walls, hiding routes, and seeker sightlines should be collected from live rounds.
