Delta Force: Devs Not Considering IP Bans for Cheaters at the Moment, Will Update Anti-Cheat System to Combat Cronus Users

With Team Jade and TiMi Studio’s Delta Force being a free-to-play game, the chances of it being infiltrated by cheaters is a huge one. Possibly one of the best deterrents would be an IP ban, though for now, that’s not being considered by the devs,

This was revealed by Team Jade in an interview with MP11st. Design Director Ricky Liao along with Publishing Director Jesseca Zhang answered our questions regarding cheaters, and whether an IP ban is needed.

MP1st: With F2P games rampantly attacked by cheaters, what’s the studio’s plan of attack for it? Has the team considered IP bans for it?

Jesseca: Our top priority here is to create a fair game for all players, and we have committed significant resources to achieving this goal. During the alpha test, the team issued a total of 3,665 ten-year bans and intercepted 11,584 cheating attempts. We also identified and blocked 343 cheat tools. This is a long and uphill battle, but we are determined to keep fighting. We are not considering IP bans at this moment since some players share IP addresses. For repeat offenders, we do have more severe measures in place, including hardware bans.

We didn’t stop there, as we also asked about Cronus/XIM users as well.

MP1st: Continuing with that, will XIM/Cronus users be targeted as well when it comes to cheaters?

Ricky: As controller support is not yet live in the game, we haven’t encountered such issues. However, we do plan to address such devices with a future update of the game’s anti-cheat system.

If there’s a scourge of the gaming world, it’s none other than cheaters. While these type of people infiltrate almost all online games , most of them slither their way into free-to-play games. Let’s hope that Team Jade can somehow find a way to stomp these people out before they ruin the fun for people.

Stay tuned to our full interview with Team Jade hitting the site very soon.
