Over 50,000 cheaters have now been banned from PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. The automatic ban system takes a hard stance against cheaters.
Those who attempt to hack or cheat in the Battle Royale shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds will face the automatic ban system. This software has already banned over 50,000 players from the game – In June, the number was only half that.
PUBG cheats are not tolerated
In a successful online game, a clear stance against cheats should be shown. PUBG clearly demonstrates that it is against cheats and hacks that provide unfair advantages in the game. A software is specifically designed to kick these cheaters out of the game.
At least 50,000 cheaters have already been thrown out of the survival shooter by the anti-cheat software “BattlEye”. PlayerUnknown revealed this on Twitter.
Since June, this number has at least doubled, as there were still 25,000 banned cheaters in PUBG.
The BattleEye software claims to be the gold standard of anti-cheat services. Looking at the current numbers of banned cheaters, there might indeed be something to this title.
If players use aim bots or wall hacks, the software can detect that very quickly and ban the users. Some are even removed from the game so quickly that they don’t even get a chance to see the cheats in action.
Report function as a second layer of security
If a cheater does manage to get past the BattlEye software, players can report them using a new button in the game. This appears after you have been killed by an opponent. This reporting feature was implemented in the August patch of PUBG.
Recently, we reported that PUBG ranks third in player counts on Steam. It’s clear that some of these players try to play unfairly. The automatic ban system takes the fun away from many of them.
Currently, players legally annoy popular Battlegrounds streamers with their honking
