Arena Breakout: Infinite Will Reclaim Raid Earnings From Inactive Operators and Issue 10-Year Bans for Serious Violations
Repeat offenders will face longer mode restrictions, while inactivity in Supplies Drops and Zombie Endless Mode can lead to Merit penalties.
Arena Breakout: Infinite’s B.D.C. security team will punish Operators who remain inactive for extended periods while still collecting rewards in modes such as Supplies Drops and Zombie Endless Mode. The team outlined the policy in a new Steam announcement.
B.D.C. said it identified a small number of Operators showing this behavior during the previous season and recent testing. In affected matches, inactive players continued receiving shared team supplies and Merit Points from Zombie modes, giving them benefits without taking part in the raid.
Penalties will grow for repeat violations
Possible penalties include reclaiming all earnings from affected raids, deducting Merit Scores, and restricting access to the relevant modes. Restriction periods will become longer when violations are repeated.
Serious violations will result in a 10-year account ban. B.D.C. also warned Operators not to imitate or participate in the behavior, since taking part can lead to penalties even when the account was not the one that stayed inactive for the entire match.
Players can report inactive raid behavior
Operators who encounter this conduct can use the in-game reporting feature or the game’s official customer service channels. B.D.C. said keeping raids fair depends on players reporting behavior that gives inactive accounts an unfair share of team supplies or Merit rewards.
