People here act like they are already banned… wierd to make this much of buzz for anti cheat system…LOL
Battle eye bricked my Battlefield 4 install and made it unplayable, but no problems so far… hoping for the best. Wish we could do without this extremely intrusive stuff but cheaters have to make everyone suffer.

I woke up this morning and learned of BattlEye for the first time.
I am not a seasoned gamer, WT is the only multi-player game I play.
Things I have learned:
-
BattlEye is famous for false positive bans.
-
Things already on your computer, put there by publicly traded multi-bilion dollar companies might get you banned.
-
Specifically mentioned in this thread Logitech G Hub, GeForce Experience and Riot Client have not been ruled as safe and may get users perma-banned.
-
Gaijin support is likely to simply say ‘Do not use cheats - simple as that.’ and you will lose your account.
I think it might be wise, if you have an account of value, to sit out for a few months and let this cool down. A couple month self ban is better than a perma-ban.
Does Gaijin have any guidance or logic to refute this?

How does Batlte-eye work?
Does it rely on kernel? Does it remain active only and if only warthunder is active?

The most ridiculous false bans are from the new vac System which banned people for too fast mouse movements including in warmup(Points are not counted becouse the game has not started )
fast mouse move or simply extreme dpi setting and you got yourself a ban
while fast mouse movements could be aimbot. fast mouse movent Alone should be far from banable
Ironic name when thinking of that AA20 script video

Haha, yeah. Ironically I had wondered if something similar was possible for years but I never would’ve thought that putting inputs greater than 100% in either axis would’ve been allowed by the servers. I was baffled that there was no internal check.

Based on what google says,
BattleEye is NOT like Riot’s weird spyware near-malware bollocks. That’s a relief.
I went and did a simple google search of ‘battleye false ban’. This is the third result.
And its not even 2 months old. I’m sure this is a good omen.

Riot’s anti-cheat is extreme, Vanguard literally hardware ban you if cheats are found, it runs at kernel i think.

Like I said above, assume the worst so you can prepare and prevent it, I’ll probably sit out until this is changed. (Probably not in anytime soon)

Wait doas that mean you could get other people banned in a game
Similar to that g91 kill Aura that happened a while back?
This is how anticheat should work, you cheat hardware ban, nobody cares.
same here, they did say for a while both will be used, so we wait
This is War Thunder forum.
And this topic is related to transfer from EAC to BE anti-cheat.
Please stay on topic.

As of me making this comment yes you still can. I truly hope they don’t add it to AirRB as I have had a handful of problems being false banned with this “Anti Cheat” just for a slow internet connection
To be honest, I wouldn’t care if it meant that we could not run any type of mod whatsoever. sound Or visual if it meant we could finally get rid of cheaters altogether. It would be worth it 100 percent

I can’t find any information on how their business model works. They claim they don’t spy on us, don’t sell our information … but how do they earn their money? I guess Gaijin is paying them, but getting official confirmation about that is better then guesswork.
The person behind it has the company running as “e.K.” under German law. This prevents the public on getting information about how much money the company actually has, if they’d be able to pay liabilities resulting from lawsuits in case they do spy or otherwise don’t follow privacy laws. While an “e.K.” would have to chip in his own private money and assests, with the number of users WarThunder has it’s questionable if there are enough funds available for all affected.
Has Gaijin made sure that their partner is following the DSGVO? Is there any certification of it?
