Dakotaz shocked as he gets blatant Fortnite hacker instantly banned Epic Games\/DakotazPopular Fortnite streamer Brett \u2018Dakotaz\u2018 Hoffman was left stunned after watching a player he had reported for hacking receive an in-game ban mere seconds later. While it may be the most popular battle royale title around, Fortnite hasn\u2019t always been completely perfect or free from issues \u2013 we\u2019ve seen plenty of glitches and bugs that have turned players away. And, with that popularity, comes players who want to hack and ruin the experience for others. It\u2019s a hard battle to fight, even if you are consistent with updates and have your own game launchers, but it certainly helps when some of the popular streamers provide evidence during their broadcasts. During his October 3 stream, the popular Fortnite player had been partaking in some duo matches when he was eliminated by a pretty suspicious player who started hitting other players with insane accuracy. Instead of heading out to the lobby and resetting himself, the streamer stuck around to watch them in action alongside his duo partner for the game. \u201cI got a bad feeling about this guy, we\u2019re going to watch this guy,\u201d Dakotaz told his stream. As the stream continued, the player in question racked up a further 16 kills \u2013 including some questionable, jumping eliminations with the minigun around the Loot Lake and Salty Springs areas. Instead of letting it slide, Dakotaz brought up the in-game report function and decided to see if Epic Games would do something about it. Within seconds of him dropping a \u201cHacking 100%\u201d report, the suspicious player was struck by the banhammer \u2013 leaving the streamer, his duo partner, and Twitch viewers stunned. \u201cWoah! What the hell,\u201d the streamer called out. \u201cYo, I just reported him and he got banned. What the hell? I legit just reported him and I have like powers or something bro \u2013 I literally just banned him dude.\u201d While it isn\u2019t quite the lengths that fellow streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has gone to in calling Epic during his stream, it appears as if the developers aren\u2019t against watching the action live and banning people pretty instantly. It should probably serve as a warning to anyone who has ever thought about cheating \u2013 someone is always watching.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
