So Matt, does that mean we will have a other unban wave, to let people who got banned, a other chance?

eac isnt busted like ff was, it just sounds like they can't get a part of it up and running, i doubt there will be a mass unban

 

its not like there was a mass unban from battleye to eac either

For someone in SPCT your cognitive abilities are weak. Its not working properly because its banning silvers. That;s why we should unban everyone and start again just like we did with fair fight 🙂 Everyone was happy about that.

What are the down sides?

please never ever more unban. The unban from ff bans was the biggest mistake already from LO. Cheater destroy the fun for other players and kill the playerbase.

Hi all,

 

We're going to be making a change to the anti-cheat soon, and I want to walk the community through it instead of brushing it under the rug.

 

I'll start with why we are no longer sticking with Easy Anti-Cheat.

 

When we negotiated the deal with Kamu (Epic Games), the service was supposed to be client and server side. The critical reason for moving was their management tools and the server side piece which we didn't get with BattlEye. However, we also agreed to pay more to get that. The client side integration was fairly smooth, but the server side integration hit immediate snags. We spent months trying different configurations with the networks to get them talking properly, and when that didn't work, both sides dedicated programming support to fix the issues. When it still didn't work, we started exploring other ways to possibly fix it, but Kamu said based on our concurrency we wouldn't like get good results anyway. More recently I was finally contacted by their head of development with the news that they could no longer justify the resources to finish the server side integration. So then we attempted to work out a reduction in pricing. But we couldn't come to a compromise, so we have mutually decided to end the agreement. 

 

Clearly, we will need to keep evaluating server side solutions or build our own, because I have yet to see one that works well enough.

 

During my discussions with various providers, I also went back to BattlEye. Their solution has had some nice improvements since we left, so we're going to give that a try again.

 

Next I want to talk about the current cheating issues in APB.

 

While we do have some private cheats for EAC floating around, I will say that is still in the low single digit percentages for our entire population. However, we do have a problem right now with scripted triggerbots and aimbots. These are an entirely different category of cheat, because they are typically built with the hot key/mouse scripting systems. They are easy to spot, but they are easy to false positive. There are many legitimate uses for scripting systems, and players don't often realize they are enabled by default when they enter the game. 

 

With all of that in mind, once we switch to BattlEye we are going to start taking measures against the systems that these cheats are written in. This may be a little bumpy, and I guarantee some players will not read the forums and find themselves very frustrated. But I am taking this step to let all of you to know in advance, that you need to disable your macros and hot key / mouse scripting systems.

 

Anti-cheat will always a work in progress.

We will continue to iterate on this.

We need a level playing field for players to have fun.

 

Thanks,

Matt

Respect we need an anticheat well done matt

Mass unban needed. 

This will be a great way to raise online at the expense of old players, and those who use cheats will be banned again.

I want to return to the game, Matt must give one last chance 😘

...аnd then maybe I'll change the icon to Matt's portrait! 😃

Will this have any effect on individuals like me who shoot with the mouse wheel? Which increases rate of fire for my pistol or semis.

It does not increase the rate of fire. Nothing can let you exceed the max RoF.

everyone was unban and that was the second chance? did they not learn from their pass experience. NO, seems like cheaters cheat again and again. soo noo more chances unless there was a fault EAC work perfectly. If u cheated u deserved to be banned.

The hacks and macro user was much more then i had ever think. To day the game and it makes fun is easy and i have see some people who use alltime the .45 and was op with it now playing with nano 😮 😮😮.  Now i can see who was Legit and who not good for me to know. THANK LO
