Banned for "cheating" in Call of Duty... and i just play zombies the whole game time?
i'm into speedrunning, and i only played CoD for the Zombies in the game.

Yesterday i bought BO7 to play the Beta today (or well, that was the plan), and check if there is any Easter Egg to complete in speedrun, today they updated the game so i had to wait until it finished, also for some reason the games didn't load the maps while trying to play, so i had to update my windows and drivers and check if that fixed that, and it did.

Played like 3 matches of zombie and for some reason they banned me while playing a match of zombies FOR NO REASON.

I even was recording when it happened. i appealed today in the developers appeal page for that but it disgust me have a "VAC BAN" in my account for no reason.

My specs:
I7-10K
3070 EVGA
MOBO Asus z490
8x2 HyperX Fury (XMP overclocked)
KingSpec ssd 1TB


I had Discord, Precision X1, Ricochet anticheat, Nvidia in backgroud so no weird things there maybe? I also recently activated the TMP 2.0 and secure boot, i always have Undevolted the GPU though Precision to reduce the heat, RAMs are overclocked.

you don't have a VAC ban.

Well it is true is not a valve game, but they record it like one in your steam profile for some reason... kinda ugly for no reason.

So. Why are you posting on a forum that has NOTHING to do with it?

They ask valve to report it like one. i'm just reporting the incidence, and reporting alone don't do anything, but more than a few reports is enough to check it like a bug (And should be, there is more reporting right now here and in CoD discuss. Maybe the anti-cheat is reporting something in common like a cheat)

1 game ban on record | Info
0 day(s) since last ban

this is a community only forum. seeing the ban is not for valve games. So to let you know, valve only enforces the ban, you have to contact the dev regarding the ban. But if they don't remove it then its permanent. Go to your profile and click on the info button next to your ban

Yeah i already did it, i'm just reporting the incidence since there is a lot of players right now being banned for no reason even some without recent playtime. so maybe it's a bug.

Bug, maybe. But keep in mind bans are delayed on purpose. For all you know, its most likely not a bug. Keep in mind, i can say majority of time, players with bans, make up stories, so i find it hard to believe your story.

Activision uses Ricochet anti-cheat that issues Game bans, not VAC bans.

Steam support does not handle game developer bans. Contact Activision support.

https://support.activision.com/ban-appeal

They also carry over bans to all new releases for the account that is banned.

They also ban the use of reWASD and other emulation software.
