Horizon 5 banned for no reason

This is goin directly to developers please address this question because im sure with me along with hundreds of others that were BANNED FOR NO REASON BECAUSE OF AUTO BANNING. Has this system been worked on? Will there be the same OVER POLICING like in horizon 4? Will people that ARE NOT CHEATING AND THAT HAVE NEVER CHEATED BE BANNED? This answer GREATLY IMPACTS MY DECISION OF PURCHASE if the new game. I have played all your games and really enjoyed them and NEVER CHEAT. When i was WRONGFULLY INACCURATELY banned on h4 few months back i was pretty unhappy about it. We pay alot of money for these games and put alot of time into them. I understand that there are cheaters out there but make the system more accurate please.

Never happened to me. Playing since Forza 1. That just doesn’t happen. There was a reason.

If it was inaccurate, support can help you with it.

Yes, for a reason.I don’t know anyone else that happened too either. Just make a sub account. They don’t ban those if the main account is banned. Whole system is idiotic and accomplishes nothing.

I’ve frequented many forums over the years, and people who make posts like these almost always end up having been lying. If a person was willing to cheat on an online video game, they are definitely willing to lie about it to drum up sympathy online.

I know people banned for using AH - SprungBoss. No apologize since then from PG. So reason is sometimes no reason at all.

So looking at replies
I dont cheat
Im not lying
If you look into what im talking about you will see that im not the only one who does not cheat that was banned. I dont need to cheat.
I really dont want to spend 100$ just to be banned for racing if you think im going to spend the time to write this in forum because i want attn? Hmmmm ok im not here to start arguing im here to make awareness of a system that does not work right.

Told you how to get around it if it happens or you are that worried about it. Maintain multiple profiles like lots of other people.

How it helps with his account?

We’ve taken this too far, I think its clear what he needs to do,. Enough Turtle why do always have to argue with me??? If it happened for some odd reason it is a very rare thing and not something to obsess over.

Nobody’s here :smiley: This game is about progress and if he lost it, it’s pointless. He needs his account back. But still the ban should be for a week only. If no reason, support should help.

Maybe he isn’t being truthful, maybe he is. Sorry, I don’t read minds. If he has been banned 3 times to receive lifetime come on now. People do stupid things they regret.

Let’s say he was banned by accident, he could get FH5 free anyway to test it out.

Thankfully i was not permanently banned i was banned for 3 weeks
But i should not have been banned in the first place.
There is only two things i think could have happened.
I was lumped in with someone that was cheating the room or there is a way to cheat with the equipment provided in game what sense does that make?
To make it possible to cheat with parts in game?

It’s possible just to change the date on the XBox One, and get cars early… so the equipment provided does include a way to cheat. If you accidentally had the wrong date on your XBox One it would be suspicious.

Thank you for giving me some kind of information. Everytime i spoke with horizon support they would tell me nothing. Just give me a link for code of conduct. Although i didnt do that either but i do see what your getting at.

Like I wrote, rather popular gamer got ban for using AH. One would say AH is normal part of the game. Probably not, you need to be very careful :smiley:

On the one hand, people using cheats in multiplayer can be disruptive to everyones experience.

On the other hand, when people buy a game, banning them for any length of time, in unacceptable. If you can’t, as a video game developer, create a lobby to isolate the cheats and bot users in, then you have no business selling games for money.

Enforcement cases are not open for discussion on the forums. Nor are accusations about what someone did or did not do.

If you have a question, contact Forza Support.
