Ubisoft has now taken action regarding the issues of the cheating in "Tom Clancy's The Division," and they are now planning to make the player's experience better. The act of taking advantage of bug exploits in the game will also be addressed.
According to the game's official blog, the game company has implemented a new detection system to find and catch any player who will be using a cheat engine in the game. The system has already taken effect, and in the next few days, the game company will be handing out suspensions and bans.
Players who will be taking advantage of game bug exploits will also be dealt with. All of the known bug exploits will be kept in the game's public forum threads, and the game company will be checking the new ones that will be appearing from time to time. For players who have accidentally found a bug exploit during gameplay, they will not have to worry about anything, and they are welcome to report it to the company.
The game company will be issuing a 14 day suspension for the first offense if the players will be caught using cheat engines. Players who will be caught the second time will be banned permanently. Those who will take advantage of the game exploits, and use it repeatedly will result in character rollbacks, account suspensions, and even permanent bans if it is abused too much.
According to Polygon, there have been a lot of bug exploits that have been recorded by many players of the game. One bug exploit made players use the double revive glitch, and the other one was about stacking many talents. These were major bug exploits a few weeks ago, and have been fixed by the game company already.
Game developer Massive Entertainment wrote in a blog post that in the event that there will bugs, and players will be able to take advantage of them, they need to be able to react right away and fix them before it is too late. They also wrote that they should be able to convince the players to stop exploiting the bugs for their own benefit until they get fixed by their team. They promise that they will adopt a stronger stance against players who abuse the exploits.
