Last month, we released update 7.2, which brought the long-awaited Ranked Mode to the Battlegrounds. While we were expecting some cheaters to emerge in this mode, we’d hoped our new safeguards such as SMS verification would help prevent it. Unfortunately, this did not have the effect we’d hoped for and additional countermeasures will now have to be added. Ranked games depend heavily on the reliability of the service, so today we’d like to talk about what we’re doing to improve our anti-cheat safeguards and increase our ban intensity. Preliminary Measures – When players use cheats in a match, we will utilize immediate countermeasures to minimize the impact on leg…

Happy Thursday Squaddies, It’s nearly the weekend, and to help matters we’ve got another round of hotfixes coming your way just before it starts.

Hello everyone, I popped into the Discord server last week to give you a brief little introduction and explain how I would be covering in the meantime as Community Manager while Gatzby took some personal time. We’re sad to announce that Gatzby has left OWI. Although I personally only knew him for a couple of months, I can see the positive impact he has had with the Squad players and this community over the years that he was a part of the team at OWI. He will be greatly missed. I have some pretty big shoes to fill, so please bear with me as I learn these particular ropes. I can tell the Squad community is very passionate, and I’m excited to now be part of it!…

Our team has refrained from posting content since last week, out of respect to the events unfolding in our world right now. We have strongly felt that it was (and remains) inappropriate to self-promote during such a time of crisis. We recognize the complexities of brands stepping forward and inserting themselves into important conversations, and while we weighed this heavily - we also feel that staying silent on this topic could inadvertently suggest complicity. So it’s time for us to make it very clear: Black Lives Matter. We stand in solidarity with everyone fighting against injustice and police brutality. We stand in solidarity with the Black community. …

Good evening Gentlemen, I thought i should post this here for the newer Big D members i've played with in the last week or so. The only reason im back is because of this stupid depopulation agenda plandemic going off, and the fact that telstra has given me unlimited usage until the end of this month, which happens to end on a full moon i might add, s i was able to update 20gig of Squad. Did you all miss me? These are the two music video clips i made for Squad years ago, that i was trying to explain to the new Big D players before the shrooms kicked in, just kidding about those shrooms, and i was making no sense after that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iolGk3T…
