I disagree with the entire tone of the article... When you are exploiting a glitch you know what you are doing, you know that is wrong, and know or perhaps suspect what the consequences might be...
(That doesn't mean Bethesda is not without blame here... They should fix their glitches)

But because of him having "too much ammo" that he got by glitching (not by spending 900 hs legit) he had an advantage over other players; and he spoiled the experience for those other players... What about them?

Gamers shouldn't be treated as babies... In life there are consequences for your actions.

So your telling me this guy spent more than a month of his life playing this game. How can ppl do this? I assume there's some issues to be resolved there lol

Banning one of the only people left still playing Fallout 76 lol

How long before the servers are empty & shut down ?

Gamestop snuck the the ammo into his account. /s ofc.

Him being banned is a good thing. Get girlfriend bud.

So I guess they can close the servers now, since they are finally empty.

And people still support this company. Wow.

Good job Bethesda. You banned the ONLY person still playing this game!

Sooo why not patch the glitch on what is arguably one of Bethesda's worst games ever released. Its funny, what does is say about Bethesda to make such a decision on something that they themselves have the power to fix.

IF there is a bug in the game...I don't know..."Patch" the glitch, therefore no more exploit...They some punks for this one.

thank god i stopped at 300hrs for now.

Does this person have no life, jesus some people!

So Fallout is en game for Communists.

Ban the game for being a total pile of dog shit and then slap the people who bought the game knowing full well what a pos it is.

Again, rewarding their biggest fans.

Someone put that many hours into Fallout 76? Perhaps they should be banned just for that. On the flip side, someone actually enjoyed the game so much to put that many hours into it, so shouldn’t Bethesda be praising them? I mean, this isn’t a good Fallout so I doubt there are many more such players.

1 down and 10 to go.

One gamer...supposedly... not all the details....was escalated for more info...

It’s news.

If we're going to flag down articles with mentioned satire then why is this falsely reported article allowed to be published?

Not sure which is worse; banning him or spending 900hrs on this garbage.

What a shit show.

So they banned the only person that liked the game. cool

Ok, really bethesda? REALLY? What kind of game company are you? You're really turning into EA, no you're being worst then EA.

I guess you can say he had a falling out with the company...

They euthanized his account.

Probably the sweetest thing Bethesda could do for them.

Maybe fix your bugs rather than getting upset with gamers for finding a way to take advantage, yeah? It's quite common for people to say "it's in the game, so it's not cheating".

They're a mess. I am thoroughly convinced that they are making these bad moves deliberately in hopes of being acquired by a bigger studio.

Lol. Has the game even been out for 900 hours yet?

Like OMG Bethesda! What is with you? I don't even believe you're the same Bethesda that did Fallout 3 and Oblivion! What have you done with her?!

Why would you put more than 9 minutes in that game let alone 900 hours?

Bethesda I would like to see go out of business. Shit company, used to be good now shit. F U Bethesda I will and have torrented all your single player games. From Elder Scrolls III to Fallout 4, and all future single player games you put out I will get also for free. You will not get a penny from me. muhahahah. Theres an old saying "never bite off the hand that feeds you". Looking at you to EA, though I already have my share of games from them for free \o/ Any other company that wants to fuck around? I'm ready lol.

This is just wrong. To punish a player in that way who is obviously an avid fan is just disgusting imo. There are so many alternatives to letting him know to stop, especially given his dedication to their game.

Was he cheating? If not then WTF Bethesda?

They did him a favor. He's obviously addicted and needs to step away from gaming for a bit. 900 hours? I mean, that's how much I game in about 5 years.

Having too much ammo is LITERALLY how most players play Fallout 3

I’ve never seen a company nose dive so fast before

People saying they put more hours into gaming need to understand their games are old. I dont believe this person put 900+ hrs into 76. Game released Nov that's 4 months. That's roughly 7.5 hrs every day since release. This person needs help.

HAH... typical... seems all they want to do is restrict their player base

https://cogpoweruppodcast.p...

They banned him because they're trying to save him from wasting more time lol.
It's a joke people, relax.

Lmaoo, how you ban your most dedicated players tho

Was it a ban for forcing his way into the development area and abusing that part of the game that isn't sposed to be accessible??

If so I have no sympathy because while alot cheat or abuse games where ever possible and gain an upper hand over those who play fairly, in an online environment it should be stamped out.

They banned their only true fan of the game. Not a very good business plan.

Xenimus.....F**k YOU EJ Tayler years and years 900 hours is nothing

But still, 900Hrs + Looted lets say: over 1000 rounds altogether of every weapon type of each game the player played = AHELLEVA lot of ammo!

Lol, this guy is a masochist. What's next? 500 hours of Crackdown 3?

Why the fuck would somebody play 900hrs of this? Some people will really eat anything a corporation throws at them

Mercy ban. He should be thankful.

Someone who spent over 900hrs on this game deserved to be banned from the platform itself in which he play the games on. xD

900 hours. Jesus. 37 days. 37 fucking days. Definitely doesn't have a job.
