Shame the PS4 version seems to be having even more trouble.

edit: So apparently DBG has implemented an :siren::pcgaming: auto-ban system :pcgaming::siren: that evidently only tracks performance in-game. The new meta is to make a new character, record yourself from character creation onward, and get banned for playing legitimately. Here's a guy getting banned in 11-and-a-half minutes:

Better yet, they've banned the main account linked to the one they got speed banned on and are now refusing to unban their main.

The ones who got banned did it in rapid succession 6+ times in a row from the same IP. I don't know what they were expecting. Once to test it and report back is what playtesting it, doing it over and over and over and over is playing with fire

Probably, but if they do it'll be because of the mercy of Radar_X and his sway rather than anything else.

I can tell you personally that getting a ban repealed after getting autobanned even when there is no reason and the system generated no documentation is literally impossible if you just go through CS. If the higher ups don't pass a request along to whoever is in charge of CS post-buyout then I can tell you with 100% certainty that they are hosed and will never play this game without spoofing ever again

I love how all the IVI spergs cry about the community hating the 'good' players, yes it has nothing to do with you being horrible excuses for human beings its your skill we hate!

If they can see the account chain and it links to someone whos been playing for loving years then they should really double check. This is a huge problem because i've gotten lucky and had the same performance they've gotten before and now i could be PL'ing or just playing and i'll get a loving ban that will take literally weeks to reverse just because i'm playing the game. Lib gunners could be loving banned, snipers could be banned--when tory got his crazy kill streaks they sent a GM not an automatic ban.

Don't give me poo poo about how the system works this is DBG nothing is beyond them.

I think it's wrong and unfair to ban people for playing the game legitimately without using hacks.

I also think it's wrong and unfair to punch people in the face for no reason. Doesn't mean that seeing an absolute turdbag get randomly clocked in the street wouldn't give me a good chuckle.

The guy was SinistLordofMattherson, so I'm skeptical that his ban on his main account was for violating the Skill Limit and not just hacking.

So far he is the only person who is claiming to get an autoban on an established account and hasn't posted the session stats or video.

Pretty sure that's Traseros, who makes new alts all the time because he likes playing from BR1. He's done that for at least the last year. How do you think we found out about the autoban? He was just playing normally and ate a ban.

We have a terminal case of "haven't played with pubbie outfits" here. The community actually pretty much does actively revile skill (and mostly doesn't care about them being lovely people irl) because they just want to ghost cap with platoons against a squad. Only reason you don't notice more players who are terrible people is because they're awful at the game so no one cares what they think.

He's been banned a few times and then unbanned each time on his main account IIRC, except for this time. :soe:

No as I said it's the guy who posted the video of himself deliberately trying to get banned by the new system.

It seems one person has a legitimate problem due to their really weird play style and that's fair, I didn't know about them. But everyone else who was "Speedrunning" were just being idiots. We shall now gather around and laugh at the misfortune of idiots, as is our way.

Edit: Oh it seems Traseros was speed running too. They lifted the original unfair ban (So far so good) and they felt an appropriate response to this was to try get banned as many times as possible, eventually ending with them going "Okay, if you really want to be banned then you're banned for good now"

I mean. That is a stupid thing to do right? It's not just me?

Most people don't know how to play the game and create their own way to play, GOKU/BAX are doing it right AOD just doesn't want to try so they create their own game to play. When you take a base with 40% pop or defend a base with 40% and you wonder how the gently caress its working its because the majority of that pop isn't playing the same game you are.

Its true PS2 can support every single play style but the problem is the only play style currently implemented is large scale team play. When/if they add battle islands and dedicated conts then you'll see every play style working but as it is all 4 conts are geared towards large coordinated groups.

I just think it's kind of odd they didn't go an extra step to check your HWID. "Oh hey there's another account on this HWID, the KPM checks out with the other account on it, let's not ban it." Just seems like Daybreak being lazy as gently caress. :soe:

I think it would be totally :soe: if they had a system to ignore /reports against certain "Known Legit" accounts that ended up ignoring hits from their VAC-Clone.

Then they go to a new account which doesn't have the protection and trigger it.

I love that if it's between "grand conspiracy to push MLG tier players from the game" and "maybe people don't give a poo poo about me or my stats" it's always the former.
