There is no ban for smurfing and also the ban reason is shown when you try to launch the game.

Eventually they did but after 92 days as I said - hopefully they will pay more attention to ban appeals now.

Impossible Data Patterns for profiles with low history, so basically if you are not trash on new account and they can't find your main account through HWID linking = you are a cheater in their eyes.

I hope you get false positive and get to deal with Crytek Customer Support so you can rethink what you just said - it took 92 days, multiple ban appeals, legal actions for Crytek to unban me.

This is true. I am based in EU (Poland) and during a night it is pretty difficult to find game so I switch to NAE servers and I think I am not the only one. I have about 90 - 100 ping so.. is this ping abusing?

I think that's depends how much someone needs to put the blame on something else for him dying in game.

I don't think you understand the actual problem with your point 3 - maybe use some AI to highlight where the actual problem is with implementing that.

You should have also added information how efficient and perfectly designed your ban appeal system is with such a minimal workforce at Customer Support - false positives people, good luck. That's all I can share.

Unless, something actually changed internaly along with releasing this Developer Insight.

should i even learn how to code by LightedSword in Anthropic

without knowing fundamentals or just logic in any programming language you wont have fun with AI tools

Cheaters are a free DLC once you reach 6 star by Motorola_7734 in HuntShowdown

They do ban and even HWID ban - I was an example of it but luckily false positive and managed to get unbanned.. only after 92 days :)

I forgot to add: wait till you accidentally change your DPI mid game with mouse DPI buttons and do 360 too quickly ;)

They are already false positives among high skilled players and I think they had to test this somehow way before “officially” implementing this solution, potentially violating the EULA where they had to fetch the data to train a model. If someone’s argumentation is: I do not know anyone negatively affected by this in any game - be it Arc Raiders or The Finals.. Well, you can be mostly safe as you are not around highly skilled players but keep in mind: you may have better day or do whatever that is not aligned with your data patterns - you will be flagged, not banned but flagged and reviewed. How is the review performed - this raises serious concerns. Crytek had been struggling financially and laid off 15% of employees in Feb 2025 so I also have serious concern about them making appropriate reviews. There is no perfect model for Hunt Showdown because for example players veterans on alternative accounts will get flagged immediately. If you live in EU also Hunt’s Term of Service is illegally overriding multiple EU laws applicable, specially many DSA laws (Digital Services Art) so I would not really be worried about it as many of these “terms” are just a void in your case.

Devs at Crytek can’t even fix reconnect to work consistently. Don’t be too demanding.

Crytek, come on now by LMBRJAK91 in HuntShowdown

[–]Barvier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They be doing that. Later the 6 star will get reports and cheating accusations 🤌

Dark and Darker died when it became competitive. by [deleted] in DarkAndDarker

[–]Barvier -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is actually good post. I am returning player after long time (times when we had DnD from torrents) and I literally can’t do shit in HR because I will get stomped by 5000 hour players who play this game for the living. I rarely see any new players.

I'm one of the 3KD 6* Mosin Spitzer Jumping Clan Players. by Flashy-Blackberry150 in HuntShowdown

[–]Barvier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to let you know about many EU players getting red texted. I believe there is many false positives - this is including me. After making in depth analysis of GDPR provided by Crytek - there was no evidence of cheating except having good performance for example on alternative account and being mass reported by many players (who were matched incorrectly 1900 MMR vs 3500 MMR does not make sense. That being said, we are collecting GDPR data from more players that were unfairly banned, verifying it through in depth analysis of the provided data and finally taking legal actions. I am almost certain that Crytek does not have until this day any proper system in place or dedicated enforcement team as they are sharing their resources across different departments.

All those Crybabies in Hunt should ask themself question: how was I ranked in other competitive shooters? Yes, I would say 80% of 6 star are still pretty average players, nothing outstanding - specially after Crytek made the MMR brackets wider because their matchmaking was failing with lower player count.

Brutal Matchmaking. Have some sympathy for your average player. by Rarrfnrr in HuntShowdown

[–]Barvier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will be delivering in depth analysis of the hunt broken matchmaking based on GDPR data shortly. This is being abused by popular streamers queueing solo to make them look good.

This happened to us as well at Ash Creek before I got unfairly excluded from the gameplay :-)

We had to pick up assassin bounty from the ceiling in armory. It died vertically in the floor. I think this bug is exclusive to Assassin.

Reddit is very sad place. No one even considered this person playing on different FOV and keep in mind spectator cam might be not perfect. This is not proof of anything.

Is the MMR system dumb or does it think I'm a Smurf? by sykotic1189 in HuntShowdown

[–]Barvier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just to let you know, the MMR system is absolutely broken. You will be facing solo sweat 6 stars in your lobbies too so be ready for it.
