The latest APB Reloaded blog has been updated, this time by Gamer's First developer Johann aka ‘Aphadon’. The new post deals with anti-cheating/hacking measures being implemented by the team. Johan discusses "PunkBuster" and the passion that the team brings to preventing cheating when APB Reloaded hits live status.
If a player is positively identified as running a known aimbot, he/she will be immediately kicked from the district and a notification message will be sent to all other players in that district. The cheater’s account and PC will be immediately banned for a period of time, during which the person will not be able to play using that account on any computer. If an aimbot is detected a second time, the account and computer will immediately be permanently banned, all monies paid will be forfeited and any upgrades or customizations will be revoked.
This might seem quite harsh, but there really is no excuse for aimbotting and this time around it will be treated with zero tolerance. We believe this policy will cut down on cheating significantly, and ensure a fairer and more fun experience for everyone.
