SWORD ART ONLINE Fractured Daydream: Countermeasures for Malicious Behavior and Cheating Tool Users

October 15, 2024

SWORD ART ONLINE Fractured Daydream is available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC and Switch.

Intentional Idling/Non-Participating Players

We are currently investigating the logs and applying the corresponding penalties based on the user reports and other resources.

Additionally, continuing to harass other players even after being penalized will be considered as a more malicious behavior, and users who are found doing this will be banned from the online multiplayer indefinitely.

We are also planning to improve on this situation from now on by detecting non-participating users and preventing them from receiving any in-game rewards.

However, we would like to ask for your support by reporting any users who keep using cheats/harassing others.

At the same time, we have been receiving comments from users who are worried because they might have been unable to move their character for some reason, becoming involuntarily idle or unable to participate at some point. In such cases, users who are reported only once will not be penalized immediately. We will do a careful investigation of the logs each time, so you can rest assured that only the applicable users will be penalized.

Players Utilizing Cheating Tools

Some users have been found using cheating tools to get into the player rankings illegally. Once the log investigations are over, these players will be banned indefinitely from the online multiplayer before starting the Extreme Boss Raid.

Closing Comments

Since the log investigations and the penalty assignments are taking some time to complete,  we understand that some users might be feeling discontent thinking that the Operations Team might be overlooking this matter.

Although we are currently making the preparations to speed up this process in the future, we would like to thank all the users who are rightfully playing by the rules, and to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused in the meantime.
