Warning to Cheaters: BattleBit is Enforcing Bans – Destructoid

The Art of Maintaining a Just War

BattleBit Remastered has taken the gaming scene by storm as the latest indie sensation. Its simplistic low poly graphics may not catch your eye at first glance, but this game offers an addictively immersive experience in a destructible world.

Unfortunately, the game’s popularity has also attracted cheaters and hackers who aim to ruin the fun for others. However, BattleBit Remastered is now bolstering its ban hammer to put an end to their reign.

BattleBit Remastered vs. Cheaters

Cheaters and hackers have been persistent problems within the realm of BattleBit Remastered. Developers have been engaged in constant battles against devastating and prolonged DDOS attacks that disrupt server functionality.

While I encourage you to visit this blog for more details, here are the key takeaways:

– Major issues on April 8th have seemingly been resolved.

– No estimated time for playtests as we experienced massive DDoS attacks during a Stress Test on April 21.

– Public testing will now occur more frequently, eliminating the monthly big event. https://t.co/maAkyQNtAn

Previous game updates have acknowledged the presence of DDOS attacks and the developers’ commitment to recruiting specialists to detect and eliminate cheaters. However, despite these efforts, dishonest players continue to wreak havoc in the game.

BattleBit Remastered Tightens Security Measures

In the ongoing battle against cheating, numerous suspicious accounts were recently banned en masse in July. This ban wave resulted in the removal of hundreds of accounts, including some during active matches. Although this action has helped cleanse the game, a few innocent players, including popular streamer @SureFour, have unfortunately been caught in the crossfire.

In addition to the ban wave, the game developers are implementing changes to their anti-cheat software. While BattleBit Remastered has been utilizing Easy Anti-Cheat, they are now transitioning to FaceIt, a widely recognized anti-cheat software also utilized in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

This announcement initially sparked concern as FaceIt is not compatible with Linux. However, developers have reassured players that the game will use a modified version of FaceIt that supports Linux, ensuring Steam Deck users won’t be left out in the cold. This software switch, combined with the ban wave, will significantly enhance game security.

Remarkably, the onslaught of DDOS attacks hasn’t hindered the success of the first-person shooter. Priced at a mere $14.99 on Steam, BattleBit Remastered has sold almost 2 million copies, largely due to positive word-of-mouth and influential streamers captivating their extensive audiences. In a time when mega triple-A games often dominate the spotlight, BattleBit Remastered triumphantly proves that simple yet innovative ideas can still thrive.
