Player Behavior summary:
In the next few patches we're rolling out a bunch of features to make your game experience better.
Boosting and Hitchiking
- We banned and reverted the ranks of tens of thousands of accounts that have been boosted or hitchiked. We're taking it slow to make sure we don't hit innocent accounts
Purchased and Botted Accounts
- In our last wave, thanks to the Anti-Cheat team we've banned ~4.5 million accounts
- 1.5 million accounts that were botted and sold
- 400k that were bought, used in Ranked and have been destroyed
- 2.5 million Ranked ready accounts that were waiting to be sold
- If an account is purchased or sold as of 25.18, we will catch it eventually and it will be destroyed
Account & Penalty Linking
- We're looking to take action on accounts that we're sure share an owner starting in Patch 25.23
- We know Penalty avoidance is an issue and we're looking to put a stop to it
Streamer Mode
- An improvement on streamer mode is launching this Patch (25.20) that can hide any identifying information from lobby to end of game
