Latest H1Z1 ban wave strikes down nearly 25,000 cheaters

4.7
H1Z1 had quite a lot of cheaters, judging by the number of players who got banned this week.

Daybreak president John Smedley and his staff are on a campaign to end cheating in H1Z1, as well as the sites that provide said cheats. Smedley announced yesterday that the developer has banned 24,837 accounts from the game.

Smedley named one site that’s known to the H1Z1 community as a cheat provider.



A quick look on the game’s sub-Reddit reveals that cheaters have been running rampant in the game for a while. One cheat that’s often called out is “ESP,” essentially a wallhack, letting players know where others are at all times.

Fabreezee This is the worst zombie survival game out there. So I honestly don't care about the bans


How exactly? I found this to be best.

Rumors on the r/h1z1 say another big ban wave is in the making. Good to see them working on it!

Hollywood_Undead Interesting. Still not worth buying.

Id rather stick with Arma 3 Epoch, DayZ SA, and 7 Days to Die


Yeah but apparently this is better than them all. I see game being a really popular game in the future.


That's just personal preference, some people like a game more than others, some don't. Just like CS:GO would be "better than the rest" a lot of people would argue that CS 1.6, CS: Source is the better game, as again, it's all down to their preference, some like Arma 3, DayZ more than H1Z1, while some like H1Z1 more than DayZ or Arma3.

It's not that bad, it's just hard to adjust to it since it's so different than all the others out.
