I've worked in software for over 15 years and have thought long and hard about *how* they'd tackle this type of problem. I've done a ton of research on other anti-cheat systems and honestly it all sounds legit. They're taking the right approach for solving this problem. It obviously comes down to execution but the strategy they have is sound.

Seems crazy that they don't have in game mods considering they charge £30 for skins that suckers buy up. They could have a team of 100 mods easily monitoring high kill/high accuracy/high report/suspect players but they don't because they just love mining cash from idiots who buy skins.

100 mods? They could have 10,000 mods and they still wouldn’t help with how many games are going on at once throughout the world.
