In a new post, Embark Studios put out a call to action for its community, asking for feedback and general opinions on what they think of the game. Players can participate in surveys centered around the map ARC Raiders and how often players engage in particular playstyles, such as looting, engaging in PvP, focusing solely on loot, trying to socialize, or waiting for unsuspecting players to attack.

For many players, it's also a chance to give Embark their opinion on every map in the game so far. Players will have the opportunity to rate and provide opinions on each map currently available, whether they like it, neutral or dislike it. Embark hopes that this data will help the company shape future content and design based on feedback from its community. Interestingly, some players are reporting that the survey is suddenly ending early with a “maximum number of responses” message. At the time of publication, Embark has not yet commented on the potential lawsuit.
