Javelin Anti-Cheat

Guys, I do not think it is working at all.

Just came out of a game of breakthrough where the top 5 players on the attacking team steamrolled us, 2 rounds straight with very suspicious in-game behaviour. Wall banging, target snapping, enemies TTK very, very short and not registered as headshots, where as defending team despite shooting at them could not kill them, or it took at least 3 players to down them, which didn't happen very often.

Then there is what appeared to be instant reload, as in no cooldown, and weapons breaching geometry when using standard issue ammo. By geometry I mean, a bunch of deployed cover in front of metal crates etc. Another tell-tale way to identify these players I have found is that they always leave before the end of the round and then rejoin. The ones that you do manage to lookup on Battlefield Tracker, well their stats do not match their in-game actions or apparent skill.

    By the number of threads claiming they were wrongfully banned it would appear that the anti-cheat is working, and they will eventually be caught. 

    At least I hope so.

    I've also noticed a number of other differences recently since the latest Anti-Cheat update, the same players that do not stick around until the end, are the same players that do not appear in the SOCIAL tab as recently met / played against. These are the suspicious ones I was talking about... So they leave the game early after suspicious play and they do not show up in the SOCIALS feed to be able to view their profiles or report them.

    The suspicious ones that do, have no games listed and no friends.... which I find odd, let alone no profile on BFTracker.

    Hey, believe it or not, I was actually wrongfully banned. I literally played like an hour or two before I got slapped with the ban hammer, and I bought the game yesterday. Feel free to look up my stats on how **bleep** I performed aswell.

    You can read some of my speculations of the functionality of the anti-cheat below;
    I believe their anti-cheat also flags for stuff it shouldn't, such as obfuscated applications. I also do believe that anti-virus software may influence it aswell. I use MalwareBytes.

    Additionally, it also seems to flag reverse engineering applications, which are used a lot even outside of the cheating market.

    Having a cheater in your squad could get you banned aswell, even if you were put into it randomly.

    The anti-cheat solution seems to just basically scan for any application that may be suspicious on your computer, no matter what it is, when it should really just scan for the memory used by the game. And they should also include server-side solutions (surprisingly many Roblox games have a better anti-cheat then all these AAA titles).
