unfortunately this game is becoming unplayable with regularly 5-6 aimbot cheaters on warfare every game
I've been playing online games for 20+ years as well and have never been banned or received a message saying that something was flagged as suspicious on my system.
Coincidentally, I also work in IT and I also have software that I use for work installed, as well as software used by peripherals that are less common (sim racing gear, dac/amp, etc.).
I got a 1 min ban while playing Delta Force in an offline match against bots. I contacted Delta Force support and received a response that very clearly stated it was network related:
"The occurrence of this situation cannot be ruled out as being caused by network environment fluctuations.".
I understand why they wouldn't share more details as it could help actual hackers circumvent the detection. But, the way they worded this is basically them strongly suggesting that I had a network hiccup which got me banned.
Their cheat detection is just bad if they consider a small network hiccup as being cheating (likely attributed to lag switching). It's probably tuned to be this aggressive because they don't know what they're doing, and if it was less aggressive, the game would just be a cheater fest and no one would play it. I play games like Overwatch 2 and CS2 daily and I never have or had issues.
