@KingQuack Hey, thanks for the post. I'll need to remove the link to the video as it counts as naming and shaming, which breaks our rules.
Not that you did anything egregious in this case, but not all videos are as, uh, unambiguous as this and we have a hard cut-off on hack accusation videos.
The weird error at the end, did it re-occur at any point later or was it a once-off?
Thanks again for the post and evidence.
I got this error randomly 2 minutes AFTER stopping matchmaking- i.e. i was just editing loadouts, not even in game or queueing.
I'm not very good at the game, can I get some assurance that false positives like this aren't going start matching me with people actually cheating?
edit: to clarify I am not suspended/banned and currently able to queue as normal.

Thanks for the update. To throw some speculation it sounds like a bug when (i assume) the obvious cheat was caught.
Unfortunately I have no control over how the anti-cheat is implemented, nor any specific info, but it sounds like a once-off bug and as long as you can matchmake and play normally it looks like your account is in good standing. I absolutely understand being concerned about this, though.

Sorry for the delay, with all that's happened this week 🤓
Doesn't seem do be doing it recently, Tried with just recording via GeForce Experience
I tried with the instant replay - last 5 min, last 10 min options = result no problems
I tried 2 times with just the record options = result no problems- 9 years ago
To add - since this happened to me I've played a further 10~ hours of multiplayer over the course of this week with no issues.

I just got the Your "fairfight category is incompatible with this gameserver" after AFKing at the end of a game, (guessing it started auto searching) and when I came back I was greeted with that message, I clicked the multiplayer tab and I got the same message again, tried multiplayer once more and I could join matches and customize my pilot like nothing had even happened.
Is this just a one off bug or am I playing in a cheaters server or something, bit concerned to be honest.

That same thing just happened to me. Awesome, I haven't cheated once in any game and I get a message about it.
