Poperon 141 Posted July 5, 2018 For reals, since Battle Eye started the ban waves, i haven't seen one thread here from that typical "ERMARGHERD I WAS BANED IM INOSSENT PLS" Am i not seeing threads like this because Mods do their work in a blink, or because effectiveness has finally hit APB? Either way, im fine with it! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seedy 324 Posted July 5, 2018 ive not seen any cheaters in game (maybe 1 but i wasnt sure). LO seem to be doing a good job. Good for them and us too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salvick 248 Posted July 5, 2018 I just suspected a very few wallhackers and noticed couple of macros, but what was more noticeable was the amount of these idling in Social that eventually disappeared and haven't seen them again since more than a week or two. That made me think where would they be...never posted on FFBans myself but used to check there frequently in search of known miscreants. ('miscreants' I don't know why, but I love that word...'miscreants'... lol ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SelttikS 224 Posted July 5, 2018 from the stand point of someone who refreshes the forums way too much... yeah there just isn't a lot of people complaining about being banned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Before, they had the chance to complain that Fair Fight is garbage, and claim false positives all over the place. Now LO has just closed that breach. Because now if someone gets banned, that's probably because they really made their way to it. Edited July 5, 2018 by Poperon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mynd 120 Posted July 5, 2018 There's been rumors of private cheats available to certain cliques, but no idea how true that is. Personally, I've not seen any cheaters in awhile. Also, certain "god-like" players have been less than god-like lately; I KNOW I've not gotten any better, that's for sure lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always will be private and low slot number cheats, that's how you reduce the risk of it being patched. if one of those members get caught, sometimes manually sometimes from insiders selling out, then all that work goes away and everyone gets banned. Lose lips sink ships and all that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CookiePuss 5378 Posted July 5, 2018 Unpopular opinion: Maybe there werent that many cheaters to begin with, and BE has just lessened our paranoia. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was on Citadel :s A few familiar names around that I see are still cheating, somehow already have that BE bypass but LO are implementing anticheat features one by one I think? So not too concerned anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can tell a bunch of these I was expecting them to kick my butt really surprised me going negative or even finishing with 0 kills against my average casual player game style. ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookiePuss 5378 Posted July 5, 2018 Ive not really seen cheaters nor a dip in player skill at least on Jericho since BE was taken off its leash. If anything there are more good players lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A few names here and there will always be pretty obvious, but all the people I used to hackusate suspiciously seem much easier to play against now, hmmm.......... Overall APB has become much more enjoyable and playable. Now we just need servers with proper DDOS prevention and mitigation, ping is pretty much the only thing causing me to get salty now lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sayori 311 Posted July 5, 2018 Or you don't see threads like those because nobody has been banned. I see more and more blatants everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keshi 436 Posted July 5, 2018 There is 1 thing i DID notice besides those posts being made on forums... People that used to play blatantly suddenly plays decent... idk if i'm the only one that notice this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So we need to figure out why you see so many blatants when almost everyone else is not. Is it that you have some superhuman ability to know that every that kills you is cheating? Or is there some other strange reason that no one can imagine? The world Needs to know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CookiePuss 5378 Posted July 5, 2018 Unless there is some automatic feature preventing "I was false banned" posts from showing up, there just arent any being made.
