Players Exploiting VAS HM on Xbox1 NA, will ZOS ban Players like before?

ZOS_GinaBruno

We've been keeping a close eye on the chatter surrounding the Veteran Asylum Sanctorium exploit. We did have a fix go out for this in today's PC patch, and it will be fixed in the Update 18 patch for console in a couple weeks. Unfortunately due to the type of fix this is, the scheduling we have for certification, plus a number of other factors, this cannot be hotfixed. In the meantime, we are generating logs of everyone who may be taking advantage of this exploit, and we do plan to action those accounts accordingly.

Remember, if you come across what appears to be an exploit, please stop doing what you're doing and reach out to a staff member with details.

Thank you for the info, Gina!

This is exactly what I was expecting to hear eventually, but I'm still glad to hear to now, ZOS!

I hope those logs include IP's and not just accounts.

Vaoh

RIP the exploiters

@ZOS_GinaBruno What about those of us putting in ticket after ticket and getting no response? When you 'perma ban' someone and then allow them back after a few months you're essentially telling players to go ahead and cheat because a perma ban is not perma.

Wonder how long before people who exploited this start flooding to the forums complaining how they don't deserve to be banned or they didn't know they were exploiting.

Thank youuuu

Not until after the Bans drop.

I doubt that will happen before Summerset drops on consoles. Make them buy it twice, right?

June 10th seems to be the rumor for the Ban Hammer to drop. Or at least that's what I'm thinking

About 2 weeks.

Not supposed to talk about fight club.

Beardimus

Ban the lot. Permanent ban for repeat offenders / leaders of groups.

Baltharuch

You'd literally be banning half the NA Xbox playerbase at this point lmao especially people in the 'top tier' guilds. Banhammer or account wipe I wonder?

MilwaukeeScott

Top Tier Guilds have gotten decimated by bans in the past.

Thank you, it took some effort to get this, I won’t lie.

And regarding the last part, I did send you comprehensive information, videos, gamertags involved in this exploit. But response was lackluster and I had to send you messages each day before I finally got one.

Your point is? If they’re so top tier, then they have no point pulling stupid *** like that. All the better they get banned too.

I say this because that is when Bethesda's E3 Games reveal will happen.
depending on what is shown...you may or may not be worrying about a glitch on ESO. LOL.

We shall see.

Mmmm, It'll still matter... Regardless of what Bethesda do, ESO will still be alive and kicking. However, if ZoS allow this exploit to go unpunished it may be the final straw for some end game players, THATS what will push people away.

Woot! Drop the ban hammer on these scum!

Players can come back, just with a new account.

That's why repeat offenders should be IP banned.

Calling people who cheat on a video game scum, and thinking of it as akin to Stolen Valor? My nerd brothers and sisters, c'mon.
