Attention Soldiers,

We have been working with BattlEye to increase our cheater detection methods. HWID bans have now been enacted (Hardware Identification). This will help us fight hack developers and recurring cheaters more actively.

A new system has been added, which automatically reduces the MMR POINT(s) for soldiers who don’t participate in Competitive Solo/Duo or SQUAD for a long time.

• The operation policy and rules are as below.
  
  • If you do not participate in the Competitive Match for 72 hours, the system will operate and reduce the MMR POINT(s) immediately.
    
  • MMR POINT(s) will be reduced every 24 hours thereafter.
    
  • The MMR POINT(s) will be reduced as shown below:
    
    • Soldier with more than 1,551 points: 30 points reduction
      
    • Soldier with more than 1,151 points: 15 points reduction
      
    • Soldier with less than 1,150 points: Not applicable to the system.
  • This system does not reduce the MMR POINT(s) below 1,150 points.
    
  • The system works separately for SOLO/DUO and SQUAD.
  
  
• If you leave the match even during the map loading or waiting for network synchronization before the match starts, you will get the leaving penalty. If you do not want to get the penalty, you must return to the match and complete the match normally.
  
  
• For soldiers who leave the match frequently, the ban duration penalty in Competitive Match will be higher.
  
  
• At the end of Competitive Match Season 1, the rewards will be given out based on the final MMR POINT(s). Therefore, it is recommended for soldiers to play as regular as possible, since this system may reduce the final MMR POINT at the end of Season 1.
