Cheating in PUBG to result in 10 year ban
Players also have the option to report other gamers who are suspected of cheating.
Web Desk - PUBG Mobile in its ongoing efforts to curb cheating within the game, on Sunday announced a 10-year ban on players who are found in violation of the developer’s gaming standards.
The use of unauthorized third-party apps or hacks that provide an unfair advantage to a player will be condemned with the ban, the company said in a statement.
Players also have the option to report other gamers who are suspected of cheating, using the in-game reporting system that notifies the responsible team, who will ensure that stringent action is taken. This includes publishing the IDs of confirmed cheaters.
PUBG Mobile is addressing the issue on a monthly basis, ensuring its players of a fair gaming environment.
In an unprecedented move, the company had issued a 10-year ban to over 3500 players in September.
Announced earlier on October 2, Battle royale game PUBG’s cross-platform play is now available on consoles for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 gamers.
A new progress tracker called Survival Mastery has also been introduced as part of the game’s update, which displays how a player and his teammates fared in a match with a detailed review of each combat encounter. It also offers gamers rewards for putting survival skills into practice.
Apart from tweaking the effectiveness of some weapons, a new crate weapon—a double-barrelled, pump-action DBS shotgun is now available as well.
