Man it's becoming IMPOSSIBLE to play ABI in Forbidden.

Some weeks ago I played like 2 or 3 raids in the same map, doing exactly the same thing and it was OK:

1. I spawn in the Airport map (Forbidden);
2. I open the map and check where I am;
3. I choose a location nearby to hide (in case I spawned close to any really hot zone);
4. I stay still, hidden and wait for the near fights to end (which means the squads there have moved to another location)
5. Then, ONLY THEN, I go check what was left and move to the next region in the map
6. If I survived, I head to extraction

And no, on these occasions I don't play the "rat style", where players stay hidden to kill other players by surprise. In these cases I just want to TOTALLY avoid PvP and try my luck, just to see if I can complete missions, find any thing in a box/crate/whatever which hasn't been opened, and loot T4 ammo from the NPCs which were killed by other players, or I have to kill in the process.

But today...

I just joined a raid in Airport (Forbidden) to try doing exactly that. I spawned south of the Fuel Storage area. Well, I know there are two other spawn points which are closer to that area than where I was. So I ran to the north-western portion of the map, I killed that single scav which spawns there (single shot to the head), got some loot and I STAYED HIDDEN, TOTALLY STILL for more than 15min between the wall and those wood piles (or whatever). Yes, TOTALLY STILL for more than 15min. I heard the sounds of a lot of shooting coming from the Fuel area (first players killing bots, then players fighting players). Since my plan was not to get involved, I "Alt+Tab" and was doing something else while I was waiting for all the fight to stop.

Again... I was totally still for more than 15min. Then I hear another scav spawn close. He didn't notice me. He was just going back and forth like that bot always do. I heard some shots coming from the the Fuel area and the bot was killed. OK, that's expected. Then someone pulls a grenade and tosses it EXACTLY where I was standing totally still for more than 15min.

Of course I had to run. Of course then I made noise and then someone killed me with a headshot.

Yes I reported it in-game, but the "report system" has a text limit to low (even lower then Twitter/X). No, I didn't mean to write such a big text like this there. I just wished I could write that not necessarily the guy who killed me was using a wall-hack, but SOMEONE in his squad was. From the killcam I could hear there was at least one more person with the player who shot me.

Just in case someone from the ABI team will see this, my report was sent on "2026-08-19 19:07:19 (UTC+0)". My player name is Kenjiro_Tanaka.

I hope those cheaters get punished for the good of ABI community.
