Blizzard Entertainment
along with“Overwatch 2”(Overwatch 2) is about to start the third season on February 7th, and Blizzard has also stepped upcombat cheatingstrength. They announced a few days ago that starting from the new season, players who take the initiative to team up with the marked cheater will still be penalized on their account even if they are not cheating. Most of these players who use the power of others to gain unfair advantages will be “suspended for a long period of time”, and those with serious circumstances may be directly blocked from their accounts.
At the same time, Blizzard will introduce a new system to manage custom game modes in the new season. It automatically removes custom games with inappropriate titles or content, and penalizes player accounts for creating and publishing such inappropriate custom games. In addition, the official also launched a new “live protection” function for content creators to deal with the interference of malicious players on the live host. You can hide the current BattleTag in the client or hide the BattleTag of other players in the same game, which prevents viewers from identifying whether they are in the same game as the host. In addition, players can also hide the current waiting queue time or delay a random amount of time before the system starts matching, and you can also hide the replay code to avoid appearing in the client.
Of course, Blizzard did not forget to remind players to actively report bad behavior, and promised to optimize the user interface for console players to make the reporting process more straightforward.
