Cheating Problem on Halo Infinite

Hello Intrepid R, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

I understand your frustration with the cheating issues in Halo Infinite. According to the information I found, 343 Industries has been working to address the cheating issues that many players have been reporting since the game's launch. Halo Infinite's mid-season update brought improvements to cheat detection and other anti-cheat improvements.

However, it seems like you're still experiencing issues with cheating in the game.

Here are some suggestions that might help you:

Report cheaters: If you find a player cheating, you can report them through the Xbox reporting system.

Keep your game up to date: Make sure your game is updated to the latest version, as updates often include security and anti-cheat improvements.

Contact Halo Support: If after following these steps you are still having problems, I would recommend that you contact Halo Support.

I hope this helps you solve your problem. Good luck!

Alright so that forced me to reinstall gaming services which was done and Halo Infinite still won't open and Back 4 Blood still only goes through the anti cheat load and then closes. Last resort is the OS reinstall

1. It is only happening to Halo Infinite. All the other Xbox games on my PC work fine.

2. The game was installed with the Xbox app from the Microsoft store.

3. I use only the windows 10 built-in Defender. It is not run through a VPN, I have a VPN for work, but it's just the built-in windows VPN and it was not running while the game is trying to launch. No PC optimizer, or proxy. Anti-cheat would be per game, I do have a lot of games installed which have their own anti-cheat, like Call of Duty MW2. Or Chivalry 2, Gears 5, Warhammer Darktide. Halo Infinite has it's own Anti-cheat software. No mods.

4. Version 22H2 (OS Build 19045.2728)

Hi. My name is Brilliant, an independent advisor, happy to assist you today.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with hackers in Halo Infinite Multiplayer. It’s frustrating when players don’t play fair and ruin the experience for others. According to a recent article from Windows Central Gaming, the game’s lack of an effective anti-cheat solution has allowed hackers to run rampant in matchmaking. The article reports that since the day Halo Infinite’s multiplayer launched, PC users making use of hacks have been consistently and continually spotted in matchmaking by countless players.

The article mentions that 343 Industries’ Head of Creative Joe Staten previously stated in late November that “more anti-cheat measures are in the pipeline,” but the studio hasn’t shared any updates on the matter since.

The only thing you can do if you encounter a hacker in Halo Infinite, is to continue reporting them to Xbox Live.

I hope this helps.

So doing the reinstall has unfortunately done nothing, Halo Infinite still refuses to launch (tried it on steam to see what would happen and launches just fine) and back 4 blood just loads the anti cheat screen and closes on me.
