Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Enjoying the update. Too bad hackers are still a thing.

Never ran into any obvious hackers until today. Couldn't pick up anyone without being blinded when there was no one nearby with a flashlight equipped. I'll take a stab in the dark and say it was one of the two twitch streamers I went against.

    I don’t think they’ll ever go away. I have seen one maybe two in the past year. I don’t play a ton, but it doesn’t seem like a rampant issue

    Game should be rewritten to be more server sided, that would be the only way to reduce hacking. Wont happen, so have to bear with it

    Or just have better detection systems. Firstly a kill plane all around the map so if you exit the map you insta die and are booted from the game. Second detect if a character is moving over x m/s , healing 2 states in 1 second, hooking to often and so on.

    There are so many simple things that they could have detections for that could just insta boot suspected hackers from the game.

    Not even say put a punishment on it just disconnect them from the game if its detected. yeah some people who lag will get caught in it but thats why no punishment.

    Something like this would reduce the amount of hackers you get.

    Also behaviour should be going after the sites selling the hacked clients. I mean you literally google it and the clients for sale come up in the search results. I'm sure they are breaking some sort of EULA or something that they can get them shut down for if they look hard enough.
