It's weird that Siege doesn't have a firing range or something for testing out weapons/attachments.

This is what I thought you are supposed to do. Solo tourist hunt lets you practice with a character and their weapons/gear without mattering at all.

The problem with that is you don't have any real feedback on your weapons: accuracy, damage falloff, shotgun dispersion, etc. A lot of times you need to pop into custom matches in order to see that something like the AR-33's damage falloff being as little as 13 meters (which is absurd as poo poo, to be honest).

As much as i'd like to see every caught hackers crucified publicly it will mostly not happen according to our community manager.

Gotta say i'd love to see the ingame fairfight messages scroll down for a few hours. I would propose a truce just so we can watch the world burn. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PamLPnXk2ic&t=31s

I don't need names, I'm just curious how many players were detected by BE and are scheduled for bans in the first few waves.

The report button should have your accuracy percentage on how many of your reported players have been banned. That way bads like me will have no excuse when only 1% of their reports have been on players who have been banned.

The community mod said on reddit that there will be a post with how many were banned next week some time.

That article quotes "thousands" as the number of players getting swept out by BattlEye, which is on par with my assumption that about 5% of the player-base was hacking.

It's got a very high skill ceiling so people with no skill turn to cheats to feel good about themselves.

I think siege attracted so many hackers because it's absolutely a game about information and communication. When you can bypass having to actually talk to players and listen for sounds and instead just target wireframes through walls you pretty much hold all the cards


There were also plenty of white knights who toggled on when they lost because surely anybody who gets the best of them is hacking.

Hard, you might have actually fixed your game

Also its a very good very popular game with, until recently, zero cheat protections.

Plenty of cheaters keep them off until they become terrified that they are actually going to lose a videogame once. They have the minds of children.
