Embark Studios レビュー 45

Arc raiders is great! The look, the feel, the experience is unmatched in my opinion. The game is PvPvE, but somehow I have enjoyed the PVE aspect way more. The story, the quests, looting, crafting weapons, inventory management, and character building are all the key elements of this game. Yes there is tension when it comes to PvP, but it helps with the experience. But nothing is better than meeting random strangers and teaming up with them to battle the Arc, or helping one in need of a revive, or tracking down the Rats. I believe the reason for my awesome experience and 5 star review comes down to who I am. Im a 40 year old mature adult. I casually play arc raiders. I can easily escape from reality while playing this game. The immersion is so surreal. Sure there are some days I can sit for hours playing the game. And sometimes go 3 to 4 days without playing, because i do have a life outside of gaming. In fact this is the first game ever where I sat a played for 12 hours straight. I had to rethink somethings about myself after that day. Haha. And with that being said I do not burn thru the games content like most gamers do. You have plenty of time to do all the mission, find all the blueprints, and participate in the weekly trials, within each season before expedition reset. I believe that Embark is doing the best they can to meet customers demands, complaints, and wishes. I applaud them 100% for their efforts thus far. I believe most of the negative reviews of this game come from a particular type of person. These people have gaming addictions. It is real and can be serious. They burn thru the games content, play non stop all day long, everyday, become try hards and grind as fast as they can. Only to be left with nothing to do for the next 50 days. They get bored, and start to demand daily updates, and new content every week. They yearn for it. They have a gaming problem. It's not Embarks fault for most of these bad reviews. These people do it to themselves. Im sure most of them are kids, or grownups with no family, or no jobs. Which is why these negative reviews shouldn't be taken too seriously. Like I said, im a casual gamer. I love Fallout, wreckfrest, and world of warships legends. If you feel like you are someone who is like me, and loves relaxing to games and getting lost in the immersion, then I absolutely recommend giving Arc Raiders a try!

Honestly, the game just isn’t fun right now. The audio is terrible — you can barely hear enemies properly, which makes fights feel random and unfair. In a game like this, sound is one of the most important things, and right now it completely fails at that. On top of that, the ARCs are absolutely garbage and make the gameplay even more frustrating. The community is also toxic as hell — players can insult people nonstop without any consequences or proper moderation. The game is just frustrating and annoying to play.

Es ist katastrophal, ich hatte 3 Monate Spielspaß und dann wurde ich ohne verständlichen Grund gebannt worden.
Erst einmal nur für einen Monat lang, doch als ich nach diesem Monat zwei weitere Spiele gespielt hatte wurde ich mitten in einer Runde (als ich von einem Arc getroffen wurde und mich heilen wollte) für immer gebannt worden und hab also 30€ in den Sand gesetzt. ;(
ich habe den Support angeschrieben und nach dem zweiten Bann, angeblich von einem echten Mittarbeiter die gleiche Nachricht wie den Monat davor bekommen. Ich hätte gecheatet habe ihr anticheatbot erkannt und sie könnten mir aus internen Gründen keine nähere Erklätung geben.
Echt krass schlechter Support, die Nachricht war copy and paste 🤦‍♂️.
Ich habe nie gecheatet und spiele freundlich.

Constant bugs and issues with games – yet no support whatsoever.

The latest bug, following the Riven Tides update, prevents crossplay with other platforms. This means that groups of friends playing together aren't able to do so.

Contacted support – no response.

Pathetic.

Loved the game, but severe bugs have caused me to lose pre-order accounts, and now the pre-order skin on my final account. Support takes over a month to respond, and when they do, they won't help you. This makes me feel bad whenever I want to play the game.

The company is also designing around FOMO, with no real catchup mechanic for expeditions, and last minute changes communicated poorly.

Embark Studios, discriminating against disabled players who cannot play without adaptations and not returning any money.
Disgraceful company.

ARC is dead
AI anti cheat
AI support
CM ignore us on Discord

FALSE BAN for thousands of players and cheaters stay alive not worth to buy u will grt ban from the ai anti cheat system for doing nothing

Horrible support. Even worse - support doesn't exists at all. AI-based loop where regular player can't reach any live person.. just never. and youtuber with 1M+ viewers get live review instantly. AI-based anti-cheat that ignores real cheaters and band legit players with hundreds hours of gameplay (and AI-based support who trust 100% to AI anti-cheat). Tons of bugs (bcuz of vibe-coding?) that are not fixed after months... Studio create good games (480k online on start, 250k on start), but kills them itself (35k after 6 month, 6k after few years). Best real life proof why "AI can't replace human"

After over 350 hours played in ARC Raiders, I was hit with a false ban and sent into a perpetual loop of AI generated responses to my support tickets, being given the cold shoulder while watching big live streamers receive VIP treatment in support tickets due to their big audience and overall bigger microphone.

Embark stole my money and your account is not safe if you choose to purchase and play their games. Both of their titles, The Finals and ARC Raiders have had this false ban issue and they are not interested in addressing it, engaging in mass censorship of everyone posting about it on the official Discord.

This company should not be trusted with your money. They do not value you as a customer and will treat you accordingly.

Terrible customer service. They make great games but dont waste money on cosmetics. There anti cheat system is made in house and has falsely banned tons of players.

Just release Game to sell much copys ap, dont care about Hackers and dedecting them.
Arc Raiders is full of Hackers and Cheaters and the only thing they do is ban them after 200 hours playing time and ruin other player experince for one month.
I am Done with your Hacker Policy and your Games!

I've had my steam account for more the 20 years and have played online multiplayer games for that entire period, not once have i received a ban until embark decided to falsely ban my account, I have appealed it more then ten times to the same copy and pasted response about "thorough investigations" which is absolute nonsense, I will never spend another penny towards this company and will advise everyone I meet to do the same, utter idiocy.

Bought the game ARC Raiders for PC on Steam platform, game cant be launched due to at fault... I have use and tried every guide, and just to clarify my PC will be able to run the game on Epic settings NP.

But since I have not played the game. I guess I will never know due to very slow / bad costumer service!

Also es ist zwar ein geiles Game aber es kann es nicht geben das Mann in pvp Lobbys kommt ohne jemanden zu töten Mann wird abgecampt am exfil und stirbt geil Mann verliert alles ihr müsst das fixen bin neu in dem Game seit Der ersten Runde nur pvp im Solo und im duo oder Trio pve was soll das

I purchased ARC Raiders for 40 Euros based on its original premise as a cooperative experience. However, the game has been transformed into a toxic environment that rewards "extraction camping" and griefing. The extreme difficulty spikes in recent updates, combined with a mandatory PvPve structure, have turned a potentially great game into a source of constant frustration.

The developers (Embark/Nexon) seem to ignore the community's plea for a dedicated PvE mode, choosing instead to cater to a niche of players who thrive on ruining others' progress. My time and investment have been completely disrespected. If you value your time and seek a fair cooperative challenge without being bullied by campers, stay away from this game. It is no longer the product I paid for.

I am a 43-year-old veteran gamer and I have never cheated in my life. I was recently slapped with a 30-day ban (until May 2nd) for a "false positive" that I couldn't even control.

The Reason: I was dead and spectating my teammate. My teammate accidentally fell through the map due to a geometry glitch (a bug in the game itself). Because I was spectating him, the AnyBrain AI anti-cheat flagged my account for "abnormal behavior."

The Support: I contacted support (Ticket #774523), but I only received automated AI responses from "ChromeHearts" claiming the ban was correct. There is NO human review, only bots talking to bots.

Warning: If you play this game, you are at risk of losing your account simply by being in a squad with someone who glitches through the floor. The "guilt by association" logic in this game is dangerous for innocent players.

I loved this game, but I cannot support a developer that punishes loyal players for their own technical failures. Stay away until they fix their AI moderation.

Terrible customer support, false temp bans because of AI Anti-Cheat.
Support does nothing. Offered them to do full PC check but they ignored it.
Save your money because you will 100% get banned unless you are a bot.

Banning for no reason 4 h after game bought, support refuse to do anything

I have over 400 hours in Arc Raiders and was abruptly banned due to their "anti cheat" system detecting abnormal gameplay. I have never cheated in any game in my life nor would one expect to play this long and just now be detected. There is no logic, specific behavior, or scenario provided with there system for the ban.

Embark Studios is a joke. One of the worst studios out there at the moment. They do not care about you. They only care about profits. They grossed over $400 million off of Arc Raiders and they use AI for their anti-cheat, their support and take a hands off approach to doing literally anything a dev studio should be doing. They do not have a human team.

Who's bright idea was it to have a wonky automated anti-cheat that will ban you for something as simple as plugging in a mouse or using an app on your PC in the background that HAS NOTHING DO DO WITH gaming or exploits. You will be banned for no reason, no reason at all no matter how much money or time you invested in their product. You get nothing but the same automated response. They will not give you a reason of why you were banned...only an automated response along the lines of "you violated our TOS". Okay, how? Explain, explain what I did? Don't give us an automated AI chatbot and put our ticket in a multi-month hold or ban use wrongly. Embark will ban a disabled player using a Quadstick but will not ban the actual players using legit exploits or hacks.

They want you to pay $40 for their product, buy their overmonitized slop in-game and when you get falsely banned they basically tell you to deal with it. Absolutely one of the worst dev studios out there at the moment. Do not give this studio any more money. They do not deserve it.

4/07/2026 update:

It happened to me finally.

They really do have a problem with false bans and AI automated support. I'm bit of a sweaty player, I know. But I haven't really done anything against TOS? I don't even really VOIP too much unless I need to. I don't scream slurs or foul words but I do take out Raiders and take loot. At most I make baby noises to them and tell them to have good luck next time. At most my strats are "toxic" but it's all within TOS of the game. No clue what I did here to deserve it. Last 2 matches I killed people and boom, automated ban mid-match. I reached out to support and I know that AI didn't review anything on my account. It was an automated response, it didn't look at a thing. You can't even talk to a human being. I didn't even do anything man.

"Observed behavior results in an unfair advantage over other players. Because it undermines fair play, it interferes with other players' use and enjoyment of the game, which is a violation of our TOS". Okay, but what did I do? I did nothing to break TOS.

If I could give them 0 stars I would.
