Embark slaps Arc Raiders dupers with bans and drains their vaults: "Suspensions for the severe cases, particularly, where exploit usage had a significant impact on the in-game economy"

Following an especially egregious wave of Arc Raiders dupes, developer Embark Studios has dropped the ban hammer on even mild offenders, in some cases suspending accounts and seizing ill-gotten goods. In a post on the Arc Raiders Discord server, community lead Ossen says, "Following last week's fix for the duplication glitch, we've been banning accounts that gained a significant advantage from exploiting it. That effort continues this week, similarly to how we handled it in February." "Low-severity cases where abuse" of the dupe was limited will get off with a warning, but any coins and items gained from the dupe will be removed from accounts. This resulted in a rather amusing wave of players who woke up to a reverse-Christmas situation: suddenly, all their goodies were gone. "Dupers in a stupor after punishment rolls out," chimes in Reddit user CWGM. Additionally, Embark's doled out "suspensions for the severe cases, particularly, where exploit usage had a significant impact on the in-game economy or other players’ experience." This punishment was presumably reserved for the folks unleashing endless grenades in PvP, polluting the economy with infinite rare weapons, and similar exploits. If you stumbled upon a curiously generous raider (or, inexplicably, the body of an incredibly wealthy one) in the past few weeks, you may be alright. But as ever, if you go looking for trouble, you'll find it. "Players who deliberately exploited the glitch but didn't gain a major advantage will not be suspended," Oseen concludes. "And if you simply received a few items from someone who was duping, without knowingly exploiting the glitch yourself, you may receive a warning. Our goal is to only take action against those who significantly and deliberately abused the exploit, not to catch players who were incidentally affected." Arc Raiders update brings one of the "most requested matchmaking features" that lets you switch between "friendly questing" in solo "to adrenaline-fueled PvP Trio games" with ease. [/url]
