seems like theyre officially softbanning hackers and putting them into their own pool. i tested this and im 10 for 10 on entering duels with other hackers ONLY.

otherwise though, the evidence is pretty obvious. summon signs pretty much dont exist, i cant invade anywhere, and anytime im succesful in entering another world, they are using hacks. seems to me like they used the information they gained through the VAC to ban hackers onto their own private servers.

welcome to the soft ban if youve been using the trainer online. and for those who have been strictly using it offline, keep it that way!!

-AA

I have to ask, what features of the trainer were you guys using that got you "soft banned?" I feel like it'd be impossible to get caught unless you were messing with stats.

I have been using it online, but never WITH other players, only using item/spell casts, and health/stamina as well as easy kills, and still can connect to others just fine.

Yes, this is true.
All the time I see ghosts of people with full Havel moving normally, and all of the summons/invades/arenas are with people using hacks. And I can't connect with any of my friends.

I tested earlier if this soft ban worked only on your 'hacked' character, but unfortunatly it does extend to your other characters.

EDIT: Don't modify your stats then go online

If i might ask what Level are you depending on what that is you can move normally in full havels. You just roll like a fatman and in tthe really high level ranges thats not even an issue .

Does anyone know if you received a soft ban, if you are going to be VAC banned as well?

I doubt it. People that are VAC banned on ANY game as of this moment cannot connect to Dark Souls 2 online AT ALL.

I have only been using the trainer when I play the game offline. When I play online and someone does invade me I just use an item that forces them to return to their world.
