On this subject, here is the message which was posted a few days ago:
Currently, some users are unable to connect to official servers due to cheats and fraudulent activities. We have confirmed that some players are unable to play correctly.
As a company, we do not tolerate any fraudulent activity or cheating, and we are working on measures to deal with it strictly and on a priority basis.
First of all, we plan to release a player list feature for servers in a late February update. With this, we will strengthen the identification of cheating players and the suspension of their use by the development team.
Following this, we plan to introduce an external anti-cheat solution to take action against particularly frequent fraudulent activities and cheating. Please note that in the case of community, single player and co-op servers, the use of this feature is optional.
In addition to the above measures, we will continue to take stringent action against any further cheating and fraudulent activity.
Although the development team addresses each issue daily and takes action, there are many instances where we are unable to keep up, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Our entire team is working hard to get everyone back to enjoying the game comfortably and with peace of mind as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your continued support.
