    The Streamhouse bans this morning should have the community in an uproar.

    While it was fun watching a few obvious cheaters getting insta banned, all this video shows is the futility of catching/banning cheaters. I mean, is a player report with accompanying video the only way they can track cheaters? Sure seems that way, and if that's the case, they will only catch an insignificant amount of cheaters.

    Even more sad is that Hamish had to feel cheats on his own back to do that.

    I don't believe it has anything to do with that. It has to do with that they needed to respond quickly to all the hacking/cheating posts and comments etc so they did this right away to show they are listening.

    With Update 1.1 now behind us, and Update 1.2 in the works, we also want to briefly mention our ongoing work related to bug exploits.
    We are currently adjusting our processes and policies in order to better track and deter exploiters, in line with industry standards and out of fairness and respect for the larger The Division community.
    Expect more details on this in the next days.

    Quickly? I'm of the opinion that had Hamish not gotten killed by a hacker, this "ban wave" wouldn't have happened. I'd imagine that hundreds of reports with videos have been sent in by now, and they've done nothing, UNTIL he experienced it first hand.

    Prior to that they had a head in the sand mentality, and thought that the outcry from their customer base was bogus.

    That is probably part of why it took this long. I am sure a good chunk of those 100's or reports were false positives.

    You think? The ones I watched that were linked on the forum (before they were removed for naming and shaming lol) were pretty damning. When you're getting shot through cover and watching the guy teleport, seems to me that it would be a slam dunk.

    I'd imagine a metric *** ton of /report XXXX were filed, but if they're providing videos, seems to me someone wouldn't go through the trouble of jumping through all the hoops that UBI/Massive require to report if there wasn't something shady going on.
