My current multiplayer game. Absolutely love it. To many cheater on PC though I'll eventually be leaving for console.
@vamatt correct but what if I login and the game notifies me that my rank has been adjusted because of someone cheating which has happened to me 4 times this season so far? Now on top of that I calculated that I watched the game ban over 20 people in my 2 hour session of playing. If we're being conservative that's most likely 100 people banned a day for cheating. That's 3000 people a month. That's 36,000 a year. That's just the people they are catching. It would be naive to assume they are catching everyone. In fact they most likely aren't even catching most of them. Why deal with that level of cheating when I don't have to?
