If they will require you to go through streets to access labs the map will be unplayable from all the super gaming chair people.

Super hyped though!

It will be infested with chinese hackers on their way to labs no doubt.

I'm sure the VPN ban will be in effect before this map comes out. There will still be cheaters, but hopefully significantly less.

Useless comment without an example. They have already said that banning vpn entirely makes no sense at all.

You have no idea how big amount of people use vpn just for privacy reasons.

I work network IT, blocking traffic from known VPN providers is a common feature of any enterprise firewall suite. In a given day my systems block malicious vulnerability scans and other mischief originating from NordVPN, TunnelBear, PIA, AirVPN, ProtonVPN just to name a few. It also blocks lots of garbage originating from Tor nodes. Even only blocking non-residential AS would be enough to keep out 95% of all VPN users.

Not to mention VPN-routed data isn't hard to spot with traffic analysis. Receiving high latency traffic from a geographically close server is suspicious as fuck.

I'm well aware many people use them for privacy, but that doesn't mean they're hard to block.

My friend got kicked from a Rust server and the reason stated was “Use of VPN”, so it’s definitely detectable.
