No mention of PunkBuster.....

"Halo: Reach" developer Bungie, meanwhile, has taken things a step further, implementing an automated system that detects certain signals and patterns characteristic of cheaters, and bans those players. It's still an imperfect method, though, and one that has resulted in many false positive bans that had to be reversed (such as people who experienced network lag midway through the game, tricking the system into thinking they quit since they were losing).

 

wait, so, rage quitting is a bannable offense to bungie?

We see rage quitting all the time. Autobalance can not keep up with the players leaving game near end of round because they are loosing. I have seen bans where player on loosing team let rage get the best of them and their text chat shows it. I say to them Grow-up, someone needs to loose. Let the Admins sort out these rage folks and make game developpers and anti-cheat developpers do all they can to keep honest players in the game by eleminating CHEATERS.

Just gets dumber by the day... :doomed: Next thing you know you step away to grab a beer and you'll be getting a 15 minute ban for drinking while playing. :banghead: What the heck has happened to the gaming world?
