FN Questions.

I only played when it first came out and not for very long. But my kids where playing lego fortnite so I started playing on and off.. Wrecked people on console.. But on pc.. Dang im bad.

They Hardware ban now correct? And use easy anti cheat? I have 3 or 4 original old accounts that still work. I'm not sure how strict they are in bans or cheating, in the start was pretty easy, but I think they increased their security some. I'm also seeing people spoof?

I don't rage, I barely aimbot. But how aggressive are they with bans/reports? Do they do stat based bans? People view you or watch you? I cant remember. Was curious if someone could educate me on FN and if its even worth buying into.

They always do hardware bans and use eac. You can spoof easily though and get on a new account. The very first account ban will be 365 days as well and your account will be unbanned after that.

But been banned? Spoof and restart? Lol. I wasnt planning to rage, and I have spare accounts, but it seems I will need to spoof to use them if I get banned.

No need to spoof, its 1 day ban if u get a lot reports.

The info is good to know. May consider it down the road. I may spoof anyway.

If you get a 24 hour ban its almost always due to reports, at which point the system will give you a timeout and the AI will deep dive your system, you may also be manually reviewed. In my experience 95% of the time 24 hour bans turn into a year ban. Maybe if you had a high level account with lots of paid stuff that was yours not a bought account. You might survive but the moment the AI sees a new account etc etc they will drop the ban hammer on you.

Plus if you think about it how many newbs with less than say a month of playtime have 50%+ accuracy and huge amounts of kills/per deaths???

In my experience if you get kicked mid match or login straight to a 365 day ban than most likely the system found a detected signature and just dropped the hammer instantly. Most of the time its not actually the cheats its usually your play style causing too many reports or a bad spoof (either manually or a leaky app).

Its a cat and mouse game and they are getting better and better! Good luck

The best thing you can do is closet cheat, keep your Aimbot on low speed or high smoothing, use the ESP as a general situational awareness tool. Don't track people through walls, watch out for spectators that stick around for longer than 30-60 seconds. If you see those than just "accidentally jump off a mountain" etc not worth a crown just to get a report. If you are attacking a bot just turn off the AB use it only for human players.

Good luck
