Requirements for HG Queue to counter cheaters using new accounts

Hello there, this is an idea that has been floated around before and lvl 50 would not take an account that long to reach, especially with the new update to loot.
Yesterday Rare announced that an anti cheat will be coming into the game from the next update, this will stop many of them :) .

1). There's a legitimate anti-cheat coming very soon if you watch the recent SOT update video.

2). While thresholds for participation would certainly help delay (not prevent) ban evaders from joining hourglass queues, it would also prevent a vast majority of the playerbase from joining hourglass queues. I think about my friend group as an example...some of them aren't even PL yet and have been playing infrequently since Alpha.

many competitive games

That the issue. SoT isn’t a competitive game.

Hourglass isn’t just a simple pvp mode. It’s a tool.

If they cared about the cheater issue in HG at all, as a company the size they are, they could put one, JUST ONE employee on the job and it would be solved. Flag any new account that wins more then a specific amount of games in a row (actual number changes monthly), then have the employee watch just 4-5 mins of the game live, then ban the cheaters IP, mac address and ban their steam/Microsoft store account (they have enough ties with Microsoft and steam to be able to do this).

UK based company would mean JUST ONE employee would be able to guarantee clean HG for 8 hours a day in both EU and US region. This cancerous problem of cheaters who make a living off it would be gone in a month (they would move on to other games where it is easier to cheat, like as easy as it is here now). Legit next time you are about to hire a community manager, of which you have like 20+, instead get one security person, put a bit of effort initially to set them up, making your game better and the jobs of all your support staff easier...

Rare don’t have thousands of employees. They’re a relatively small company that is working on two different games right now (that we know of). It’s not just a simple fix by putting one person on it, if it was, they’d have done it already. Of course, since you need some industry experience to see how things actually work, click Pithy’s link above and apply.

Nah, I want to farm new players in HG when the ps5 version releases.
