As the Core Gameplay Designer at DICE working on Battlefield V, former FNATIC player Florian Le Bihan – DRUNKKZ3 – is very good at first-person shooters. Yes, even ones not made by DICE. Le Bihan has been playing a spot of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, and happens to be quite adept at shooting people in the head.
So much so, that he appears to have been banned, for being too good. It’s likely that Le Bihan triggered the automatic anti-cheating systems in the game and been flagged as an aimbot-using, cheating nogoodnik. He appealed to Treyarch to remove the ban, using footage of his unassisted sniping glory.
Dear @Treyarch (also @TreyarchPC),
Please find attached to this tweet (below) a great video of me killing some other players on #BlackOps4. Accept this as a token of my appreciation towards your game (please unban).
P.S: Sorry for the bad edit, I know.https://t.co/grR2HreD20

What makes the situation a little funny though is that the same thing actually happened with Battlefield 1. That game’s own anti-cheating system – Fairfight – pegged good players as cheaters, banning many players in the process.
Still, LOOK A THIS. No wonder he was banned.

It is unfair how a player like that can do so well. What the developer should do is take 40% of his score and redistribute it to the players that do badly. That way everyone will have fun.

He would have said 80% if that were the case…

He’s a former pro player. I’d say benefit of doubt is on his side.

I’d love to see a slo-mo analysis of the video

Yeah but honestly I’ve seen this level of play before. Pro sniper players are insane.

“Here is a video of me not cheating to prove I’ve never cheated” is a bit like saying “here’s a video of me sitting in a room by myself for an hour, it proves I’ve never committed any crimes anywhere ever!”

Yes, I do agree – but he’s a former pro player for FNATIC. while that doesn’t make it so that there’s no chance of him cheating, it puts the benefit of doubt on his side.

Was bound to happen if you add a sidearm attachment with guaranteed fatal headshots.
