Region Lock China?

[staffsarge]

Just out of curiosity - when can't we just region-lock China so the majority of hackers are forced to play with each other?  Unlike PubG - I'm assuming they don't represent the majority player base and as such, it wouldn't kill the game. 

What other effective means of closing out hackers will BSG entertain?  The anticheat is fairly useless.  6pm Beijing time rolls around and it's just hack-city on EFT.  It's real shite and it's only getting worse.  Really keen to understand why a region lock wouldn't be implemented.

because BSG makes money from hackers. the balance is to let the cheaters earn enough money for a few months so that they have a plus and a ban wont hurt them. they ban a couple of them and tell normal players they are doing something to fight cheaters. cheaters earned enough real money with ingame items so they buy a new version of the game. this leads to more money in the pockets of BSG. its the cheating culture that is practiced in asia alot also known as the chinese money trap.

so youre telling me the problem is bsg or real money traders, instead of people buying from real money traders just to lose every advantage they bought to the same guys

hah, bloody hell.  Well I mean, if the hackers are getting 1 month in - that's plenty of time to get a buttload of real world cash out of it.  Certainly enough to pay for another copy of the game.  So where's the real penalty if that's actually the case.

i hope you guys instead of taking your time and complaining about everything, sometimes ffs read BSG's tweets.

"Asian region lock was implemented long time ago, but cheaters can play on different regions with the help of VPN services. We are looking into partial ban of this services. Other than that we slowly decreasing ping limit - not only because of cheaters, but because of overall bad ping influence on the server/other player experience. Right now ping limit is 180, we plan to limit it to 150-160."
