Losing your loadout to a cheater is the worst feeling in an extraction shooter, but TiMi Studio Group is making it easier to recoup those losses. The developers have updated the security policy for Delta Force, expanding the eligibility for "Cheater Kill Compensation." Previously restricted to victims of permanently banned accounts, the system now covers players taken out by cheaters receiving 30-day suspensions.
Closing the Compensation Loophole
Until now, if you were eliminated by a cheater who "only" received a temporary suspension, you were out of luck regarding gear restitution. This update acknowledges that a cheater is a cheater, regardless of the ban duration. If the security team hits an offender with a 30-day ban, their victims will now receive compensation via in-game mail within three business days of the confirmation notice.
This is a significant quality-of-life improvement for the game's economy. In high-stakes tactical shooters, gear fear is real, and having the assurance that the system backs you up against unfair play encourages players to bring their best equipment into the field.
Latest Enforcement Statistics
Alongside the policy shift, the security team released enforcement data for the week of November 17 to November 23, 2025. The numbers show a heavy focus on both hardware-based cheats and automated scripting.
- 10-Year Bans: 2,786 accounts were permanently suspended.
- DMA Interceptions: 1,284 of those bans targeted Direct Memory Access (DMA) hardware cheats, which are notoriously difficult to detect.
- Scripting: Over 11,433 instances of automated script usage were flagged and addressed, resulting in benefit confiscation and bans.
The high number of DMA interceptions is particularly notable. DMA cheats use separate hardware to read memory, bypassing software-level anti-cheat. Seeing over 1,200 of these caught in a single week suggests TiMi's detection methods are evolving to match more sophisticated threats.
How do I claim compensation?
You don't need to manually file a claim for the gear itself. If you report a player and they are subsequently banned (either for 10 years or the newly added 30-day duration), the system automatically processes the restitution. Once you receive the confirmation email stating the ban was successful, the compensation package should arrive in your in-game mailbox within 72 hours (excluding weekends).
The team reiterated their zero-tolerance stance, confirming that they will continue utilizing device blocks and IP bans to keep repeat offenders out of the operator pool.
