In the fight against cheating in PUBG, the recent ban data has once again broken the historical record. In the first two weeks of October, the official banned more than 510,000 cheating accounts, and the number of bans in a single week reached 330,000, which is an impressive number and even exceeds the total of the past two months. This wave of bans has undoubtedly excited the players and shows the official’s attention and determination to the game environment.

Analysis of the report
According to data analysis, the number of banned accounts in the week of October 7 to 13 doubled year-on-year, which means that the intensity of anti-cheating measures is being strengthened. This achievement not only reflects the official efforts in combating cheating but also shows the players’ expectations and needs for fairness in the game. Many players actively discussed this phenomenon through social media and forums, expressing their hope to play in a more fair environment in the future.
However, as the number of bans increased, many players also complained on social platforms that their accounts were frequently kicked out of the game, especially those marked as “green players”. Their common confusion is: Why are they kicked out when logging into their computers, but other accounts have no problems? This situation makes them feel helpless because they think they are compliant players, but they are unduly affected.
After an in-depth investigation, it was found that these green players may have logged into accounts that had been permanently banned when using their computers. Such operations not only affected their gaming experience but also caused their computers and accounts to be implicated and frequently kicked out. In response, the official proposed a solution: it is recommended that these players temporarily refrain from logging into PUBG within half a month to avoid any invalid attempts such as trying to unblock or modify IP. The purpose of this strategy is to reduce such behaviour and thus increase the cost of cheating, thereby prompting cheating programs to become more complex and maintaining the fairness of the game.
Behind this wave of bans, PUBG’s anti-cheating technology continues to improve. As the official core weapon, the anti-cheating system “Zakynthos” has undergone many upgrades and improvements in recent years. Although players have been quite critical of the system’s effectiveness in the past period, and it is generally believed that it is “thunderous but small”, the recent ban action shows its potential. Many players may be surprised that they originally thought that this system would be silent, but they did not expect it to hit hard at a critical moment.
In addition to Zakynthos, the official Anti-ESP (fog of war system) is also constantly being strengthened. The system is specifically designed to target prospective cheats and is designed to create a fair gaming environment for ordinary players. Its effectiveness has attracted much attention, and players are looking forward to whether it can really crack down on prospective players. Although it will take time to verify the effectiveness of these measures, many players have begun to notice a reduction in the number of cheats in the game.
In addition, the ban on “unauthorized hardware” and the fight against the “DMA (direct memory access)” special medicine have become hot topics for players to discuss. The official has adopted corresponding response strategies for such complex cheating methods, trying to minimize their damage to the game ecology. All this shows the official’s continuous exploration and improvement in technology.
In this fight against cheating, PUBG’s determination and efforts cannot be ignored. Although there are still many challenges, with the continuous improvement of the anti-cheating system and the strengthening of banning measures, the future gaming environment is expected to become healthier. For the majority of players, this is not only a heavy blow to cheating, but also an active advocacy of fair competition. Through this series of measures, PUBG has not only strengthened its anti-cheating capabilities at the technical level but also conveyed the belief in maintaining a fair gaming environment at the spiritual level.
It is worth noting that the official is paying more and more attention to the problem of cheating. The PUBG team is always listening to players’ feedback and actively adjusting strategies to deal with the evolving cheating methods. Players hope to enjoy a more stable and safe gaming environment in the future and truly experience the fun and challenges brought by PUBG.
In summary, PUBG’s anti-cheating struggle is a protracted war. Through continuous efforts, the official is committed to creating a good gaming atmosphere for every player. This is not only an improvement in the technical level, but also an emphasis on gaming culture and player psychology. As expected by the official, the ultimate goal is to allow every player to enjoy a truly fair and just gaming experience. Although this road is full of thorns, every step is moving towards improvement.
