Why do people feel the need to cheat online? Well, whatever the reason, the devs of PlanetSide 2 won’t have any of it in their game.
Just days after release, hackers have already created third-party software that have allowed such things as Aimbots. President of SOE issued a statement to all those hackers and cheaters out there.
Haruhi at artificialaiming.com was just banned. all 3 of his accounts. Goodbye you scumbag. Find a new hobby or get good at the game.

This includes any modifcation, no matter how harmless it may be as clarified in their post.
“We do understand there are relatively harmless apps that fall in this category, but if we allowed those they would simply be used as a shield excuse by players trying to cheat.”
Have you run into any cheating or hacking yet in PlanetSide 2?
