Mediatonic found that some players used this feature to bypass the game’s anti-cheat systems.
Done the law done the snare. There is no multiplayer video game that is free from those who take advantage of vulnerabilities to win games undeservedly. Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has also been seen and desired against cheaters, a problem that Mediatonic has already taken note of. The study has discovered that some cheaters are using the Steam Family-Sharing feature to circumvent the expulsion system, so they have decided to temporarily disable it.
Family-Sharing is the Steam family loan, which allows you to share your games library with family or friends. “We have discovered that cheaters are using Family-Sharing to bypass our banning system on Steam,” the developer shared on social media. “They create new accounts and share them with themselves, so unfortunately we’ve had to disable this feature for now. It will help us a lot with cheating! ”, They emphasize.
We discovered cheaters were using Family-Sharing to get around our banning system on Steam by creating new accounts and sharing with themselves, so we’ve unfortunately had to disable that for now.
It should massively help with the cheating issues though!

Changes to your anti-cheat system
From Mediatonic they recently announced that they had improved their cheat detection criteria, so it was no longer necessary for players to individually report offenders. Additionally, in a future patch, the studio will change the way cheaters are blocked. Currently it is necessary to wait for the game to end, but the idea is that it is possible to take more immediate actions.
Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is a multiplayer game reminiscent of the Yellow Humor show. Players face numerous trials in the hope of not ending up eliminated. Although the title is available on PlayStation 4 (free via PlayStation Plus) and on PC (via Steam), Mediatonic is preparing a version for mobile devices. Of course, at the moment only for the Chinese market. You can also see these funny characters in Resident Evil 3 Remake, as long as you have the game on PC and have installed the mod that we present in this news.
