The Division team to start permanently banning cheaters
Cheating issues were discussed in the latest State of the Game chat over on Games Ring while server maintenance was being performed.
According to community developer Yanncik Banchereau, once update 1.1 drops, players can report cheating inside the client for the PC version of the game. To do this, they will type /report [NAME], which will flag the account once the team manually reviews the complaint.
Three day suspensions with a second chance will be offered. If a player takes this second chance for granted and cheats again, a permanent ban will be handed out.
Manual reviews will weed out the “several false reports” it received by players reporting others are cheating just because they have a high skill level and high-end gear.
Banchereau said there isn’t a cheating problem on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. The PC version, however, “has a lot of issues.”
The team will use both community reports and automatic flags until a “better solution” is developed to determine which players are hacking the game.
Cheating is discussed in the Twitch stream posted below around the 26.40 mark.
Weekly maintenance was performed on The Division today, bringing the servers down for around three hours.

This is brilliant news I don't have this game but I'm glad they are doing this, Every cheater/glitcher should be banned imo.

cheating is pointless you buy a game so you can play and have fun with challenges, cheating just destroys the point. So for the cheaters you deserve what is coming.

They say this but quite frequently people avoid these types of bans, but i'll guess we shall see how effective this is really.

kamilca In the beta there where lots of cheaters but i havent seen any in the game since full retail release!
That is because most people just did the amazon way to get the Beta access or paid for the game and cancelled to cheat in the Beta lol. Wouldn't make much sense to pay $60 just to get banned

Xaldin Good never respected people that modded/glitched online, just ruins the game for other people
Depends on what kind of mods people are using.

-MewXerath How does one even hack this game. Cheat Engine just freezes the game.
You have to use a bypasser program found on many hacking websites.
Why tank you :) even though I figured it out.
