PUBG Is Sick Of Cheaters, And Are Taking Major Preventative Steps To Prove It

Surprise hit PUBG has over 24 million players despite undercooked gameplay and a lot of glitches and bugs. No one seems to care, and there are more and more players jumping online every day. The biggest problem, according to PUBG Corp, isn't the laggy play, dipping frame rates or server problems- it's cheating. Now, for me, I don't understand cheating when playing online games. Who cares if you are the "best" if it's achieved dishonestly? Why would you even bother playing? I suppose that for some, the "glory" is enough. To me, it just seems stupid. 

A lot of other players don't seem to think so, however, because PUBG Corp has made numerous posts about it, applied fixes and sent warnings, all to no avail. They now have plans to ban all the players who used a recent cheat, one so widespread that it was used over 100,000 times. Some people are saying this is too dire a response, other people are saying, "Well? Don't cheat then, you hand in the cookie jar asshole."

The top brass at PUBG doesn't want to hear the whining of the cheaters, though. In fact, they are stepping up their cheat detection even further, utilizing data-logs to find the dirty players. Apparently, they are so committed, they said that their anti-cheat team will go through the data logs by hand, if that's what it takes. They have even recently employed help from various governments in order to use the full extent of the law for those who develop and distribute cheats. Not sure what exactly that looks like, but it definitely sounds scary, kind of like an official letter from HBO telling you that they know you torrented the latest season of Game of Thrones, and they aren't putting up with it anymore.


PUBG also encourages players to snitch on those they suspect of cheating, and while I live by the old adage that snitches get stitches, if some punk-bitch tries to knock me off the leaderboards through unscrupulous means, you better believe I'm gonna fink  faster than I can rat.
