    You guys even dealing with CHEATERS?

    Last i heard, we cannot name the cheaters on forums. It's really great you protect their rights. How about doing something about cheaters? Some cheaters get reported , but still we get to see them appear in matches. If you haven't figured it out already...cheaters ruin the game. Since you chose NOT to implement a good anti-cheat mechanism, how about dealing with cheater reports FAST? Like in this century?


    Aimbot, speed hacks. Do you guys have any pride in your work, or do you just don't care? If you don't..keep in mind that word of mouth is a powerful thing.

    Problem is some players are better then others. Without anti-cheat software, they have to depend on us to do their jobs. With as toxic as this game can be. You have plenty of players get hurt feelings and some that set out to grief. If you get your feelings hurt and can't get even, then those players start reporting players and cheaters . Maybe they are maybe their not. With all the issues with the game sometimes it is hared to tell a cheater from just a player who is better then you.

    I get that. Some players are better than others. I'm not new to the game.Been playing since it came out. I can recognise the difference. Seasoned players in the team agreed this guy was cheating...and has been for a while. He also had been reported multiple times, by me and some of the team members. Have been playing the Last Stand for a while now, so when i see the player list before the match starts, i know which players are really good (because they whooped my butt )

    This guy however, was shooting from sniper distance with an LVOA.. Head shots on all team members. Poof poof. Couple bullets...dead.

    I'm not saying this guy wasn't. My experience is I have gamed with some players, that everytime they die it's because the other player is a cheater because they are too good to die. I have also seen things where players have been focus fired on and the run right through it and take down my whole team and never lose any health. I have also seen players in Survival shoot a pistol and it looks just like when I use a fully auto smg, lmg, or ar. Most of this I have been told be cause by lag or latency. So at this point if it hasn't been fixed, they have no intention of fixing it.

    When the developers tell you they aren't fixing the game unless you spend money on microtransactions, they really don't care about stopping cheaters. Cheaters might spend money on microtransactions, so cheaters won't get banned.

    They are not dealing with cheaters. I can tell you this first hand I know for a fact they are not doing anything about no matter what they say.

    That is simply not true. Way back in 2016 we announced that we had perma-banned 3800 accounts and taken actions against 30,000, and we haven't stopped banning since then. I'll still let the team know that you guys want to see faster and better anti-cheat, and to see the results more clearly.

    Any cheater report sent to https://support.ubi.com will be investigated, and bans do result from these reports. Video evidence of the incident is extremely helpful!

    Maybe if we leave it upto you and just quit playing when we have had enough. Then maybe you guys will get around to actually doing your job and we can get back to playing the game for fun.

    If you feel we need to pay you to fix the game, maybe we feel you need to pay us to continue play testing your Beta release. After a 1.5 years we have supplied you with enough.

    To start with, thank you Massive for being worthless!

    They don´t care. For example I sent in a video in May where you could clearly see a player using aimbot and teleporting all around the map. We ran into the same player yesterday, still aimboting and teleporting like crazy.
