The persistent anti-hacking efforts of a masterpiece
Undeniably, few games can compete with PUBG when it was in its heyday in 2017. However, PUBG itself is a blockbuster that has fallen incredibly quickly, when the hack/cheat problem destroyed all the achievements it had made over a long period of time.
Despite various prevention efforts, PUBG matches are still quite unstable and make the gaming community feel frustrated. In order to save their “favorite child”, Krafton has tried its best and even issued many strong sanctions. In the first half of 2024, PUBG successfully permanently banned 1,480,434 accounts for using illegal software. In addition, the game has also conducted two rounds of optimization and improvement for the Anti-ESP feature, addressed vulnerabilities, and enhanced system security in general…
The anti-hacking effect is not significant.
However, such huge numbers still seem to be not enough to completely destroy PUBG hackers. In fact, this group of people is even more stubborn, finding more loopholes to circumvent the law with increasing frequency.
Typically, recently, there were accounts using Speedhack and Wallhack at the same time appearing in this blockbuster. A few years ago, Krafton confirmed that it censored the coordinates and movement speed of gamers on the server systems, making the use of Speedhack almost impossible. But now, this group of Chinese gamers can flexibly use both hacking mechanisms at the same time, causing a serious imbalance in the first game and giving opponents extremely forgettable experiences.
After being knocked down, this gamer crawled super fast in just a few seconds.
Immediately after, his teammates used wallhack to “reverse blow” the poster.
It is obvious that PUBG's anti-hacking journey is still quite difficult and cannot be completely resolved overnight. It is cases like this that have ruined the combat experience of PUBG and caused the game to have more anti-fans at the present time.
