I am a part of this new august ban wave as well. I was in the middle of my game and got booted. It took until 1:00 AM until they notified me by email. It is the same response everyone is getting. I am hoping that this will be fixed as I have 600+ hours on pc in this game and have never though of ever cheating. Check my k/d lmao.

@Wazzatay1233 this is happening to me too, I got around 200 hours on steam and got falsebanned for cheating, my user is Dh4rkX and I think my KD is like 0.8 or 0.9?

I run ZorinOS 16.3 with GE Proton 8-11

@DharkIsCwacked That why I feel like there was no further review or whoever reviewed it didn't care to look much into it, my kd is in the same boat as you. I was hoping to enjoy the new revenant this weekend and now I cant ☹️
