While its efforts to stamp out nefarious Raiders began last month, the message arrives as a sign that it shows no signs of slowing anytime soon.<\/p>\n<p>Embark promised to subject those who utilized exploits to \u201cfurther review and possible penalties\u201d with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/arc-raiders-gets-pve-focused-event-and-new-rewards-as-embark-squashes-duplication-bug-in-new-update\"><u>launch of last week\u2019s 1.15.0 update<\/u><\/a>. Today\u2019s message follows up on that promise, offering a detailed explanation as to why it\u2019s taken the team some time to issue a response. Now that reports of exploit usage have been confirmed and their impact on the in-game Arc Raiders economy has been measured, the studio is ready to act.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"ignvideo\" data-slug=\"arc-raiders-official-headwinds-update-release-date-trailer\" data-loop=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>\u201cWe want to act once, with intention, and with confidence that we\u2019re doing the right thing,\u201d Embark said. \u201cThis is the first time we\u2019ve handled an incident of this nature at such scale in ARC Raiders. Rather than rushing, we chose to take the time needed to fully understand the situation and make sure our response was consistent with our values and expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Players who took advantage of glitches such as the dupe exploit to a limited degree could find a warning on their accounts as soon as today and through the next week.

It\u2019s unclear how many warnings or suspensions Embark plans to deal through the week, or how long suspensions will be. The Arc Raiders team tells players to report new exploits and glitches on its official Discord.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s our hope that this response provides a platform for future action, and we\u2019ve already improved our detection and tracking, internal review tools, and safeguards to limit the impact of similar exploits,\u201d the message continues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe take this incident seriously, and we\u2019re approaching it as both a corrective effort and a learning opportunity to strengthen the systems that support fair play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Arc Raiders has continued as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/arc-raiders-publisher-boasts-that-the-game-has-significantly-exceeded-expectations-and-now-sold-14-million-copies\"><u>one of the most popular games of the year<\/u><\/a>, Embark has found itself facing a stream of technical issues.
