While the update 1.0 for 7 Days to Die had brought many quality-of-life changes to the game, it also charged up the ban system. This has made one prominent feature of the game nearly impossible to use, leaving many players scratching their heads.

Although the barter system is a vital aspect of the game, the new update to the ban system is leading to the bans of many players just for commencing trading and selling. If the developers don’t fix this issue quickly, the whole bartering system could become redundant soon.

Although Easy Anti-Cheat is present in 7 Days to Die to prevent malicious players from cheating their way to the top, it also has its drawbacks. In particular, the recent 1.0 update is handing auto bans to players left and right just for indulging in selling or trading.

Fans have quickly jumped on the issue, with many expressing their concerns on social media platforms. A Reddit user, u/YourGuyRye, posted a thread highlighting the problems with the new auto-ban system. If a player sells stuff too quickly or jumps a level through selling, the auto-ban system detects it as an anomaly and hands out a ban.

Of course, this has made bartering really hard for players, as it’s simply not worth taking the risk. What’s frustrating is players can get banned even on their servers. Hence, it doesn’t matter if you go on a solo journey because the Easy Anti-Cheat will ban you on the slightest misstep.

Some Redditors have pointed out that it is best to turn off the Easy Anti-Cheat system altogether. According to many, the feature doesn’t stop cheaters from playing the game; instead, it bans players who do nothing malicious.

Although the update to the anti-cheat system is somewhat controversial, the developers have also introduced much-needed changes that players have appreciated. The game has been available for over a decade, so refreshing content is essential.

One of the significant changes in the update is the character system, which has now become HD. Compared to what we had earlier in the game, characters are now high-definition, and even the animations of first-person/third-person views have improved.

New animal and vehicle models have also been introduced, along with changes to character models. Random world generation has also been optimized, and new POIs have been added. Overall, the game’s visuals have been significantly improved, and new content has been added for players to explore.
