EPIC Bans Cheaters in UT2003 and UT2004:

Post by XMEN Iceman »

Borrowed from HardOCP, thanks Kyle!:<br><br>EPIC Bans Cheaters:<br>Epic plans to not allow the CD keys of known cheaters in UT2K3 and UT2K4. This is certainly a great move on their part! Kudos to Epic on this and may every other online gaming provider implement something along this line.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/sh ... did=359153" target="top">Programmer discussing the measures</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>In addition to an improved version of the cheat-stopping measures found in UT2003, UT2004 utilizes a targeted tracking and response system at the master server level that allows us to focus on those people really causing problems. Yesterday we identified and permanently banned a UT2004 player, "Zellius", for cheating. <br><br>Hey Zellius, good riddance.<br><br>=====================<br>Now if we could do this in Counterstrike!!!! <p><table border=0><tr><td><embed align=left src=http://www.thzclan.com/avatars/ezice.swf menu=false quality=high bgcolor=#000000 width=217 height=166 type=application/x-shockwave-flash pluginspage=http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/dow ... <td><table border=0 style='Filter: Shadow(Color=#BB1403,Direction=255)'><tr><td><span class='usertitle'>XMEN Iceman [DTM]<br>Founder and Leader of the Base Tribes XMEN Clan<br>Proud member of the Dragon Talon Mercenaries teamplayers Guild<br>Citizen of New Fenecia<br><br>You weren't much of a challenge - T2 bot after killing Iceman<br><br>- click on avatar for links - no, not sausage links!</span></td></tr></table></td></tr></table></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ceman>XMEN Iceman</A> at: 3/23/04 2:53 pm<br></i>

Dude not all Tkers are to blame. I just got either bad aim or I step on way too many of Bugs mines. <p></p><i></i>
