We\u2019ve seen the conversation about cheaters, toxicity, and competitive integrity in Marathon, so here\u2019s a quick update from our Product Security team.Detection & enforcement: We have a zero-tolerance policy around cheating.

“We have a zero-tolerance policy around cheating,” Bungie said in an update on X<\/a>, reiterating the one-strike-you’re-out permaban protocol<\/a> it had laid out ahead of launch in February. “We’re actively banning confirmed cheaters and expanding our telemetry and detection methods to better catch the aforementioned cheaters.”<\/p>\n

The studio says some of those improved detection tools have already gone live, with further improvements expected in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n

“Anti-cheat is a continuous cycle of monitoring, improving, and responding. This is an area that we will continue to invest in to protect the integrity of your runs,” Bungie said.<\/p>\n

Bungie said it’s also “iterating” on making it easier for players to flag suspected cheating and report toxicity, both in-game and through its reporting website<\/a>. It’s also investigating the possibility of sending an in-game mailbox message when action is taken as a result of a player report you’ve submitted. It’s nice to get confirmation that somebody’s facing repercussions for being awful, after all.<\/p>\n

Better voice moderation options for handling habitually toxic chat behavior and stream sniping protections are on the studio’s to-do list as well. In the meantime, Bungie’s encouraging runners to “please keep reporting” cheating and harassment as it appears.<\/p>\n

“It all feeds into the systems and people working to keep Tau Ceti fair,” Bungie said.<\/p>\n
