Buy hacks and use them to find ways to check players

Suggestion: Can the devs perhaps start buying whatever hacks they are able to find on the market, run it in a closed network and find out exactly how it differs in a detectable way from standard data...

Hey @Vhalei

They already block new account creating for known cheaters.

They even throw hardware bans out to make sure they don't come back to the game 😉

How they improve the anti-cheat is a secret but my guess is machine learning and maybe some inputs from known cheat sources.
But who knows 😳

I'm sure they will not stop the war against cheating and will continue to improve the Anti cheat.
Keep reporting as this will not only make sure they get banned but you also improve the Anti cheat a bit.

They haven't even caught many of the oldest cheaters. There is one account that I played against today which I have played against months ago too. Hardware bans aren't working because free software can change the ID's on them. They need to intercept it at the code or review the reports at smaller numbers because at this point it looks like the whole game is just aimbot vs aimbot with a few unfortunate lost souls thrown in the middle. Or heres another idea: instead of banning people, have their ID's filtered so they are only put on servers with other hackers with no actual legit players. Give them a different matchmaking system that pits aimbot vs aimbot to make them waste time fighting each other before creating a new account. This is absurd to expect people to just put up with it while they try and find a gentle fix. Spend the money, have full time spectators banning people quickly or get the cheats and reverse engineer them in a constructive way.
