Key points
- Delta Force posted a “Penalties for RMT” notice on October 12, 2026.
- The security team says most of the illegal trades moved supplies between matches through queue sniping.
- Tekniq Alloys gained through those trades will be recovered. Jeu.video reports that no recovery date was given.
- Jeu.video reports that permanent bans are possible after investigation but are not automatic for every trade.
What the notice says
Delta Force’s developers posted an RMT penalty notice on Steam on October 12, 2026, signed by its G.T.I. Security team. As reported by Jeu.video, the team says players were “maliciously manipulating the matchmaking mechanism” so supplies could be moved from one player to another, mostly through queue sniping (timing queues to land in the same match on purpose).
The fix targets what those trades produced: the Tekniq Alloys gained through them will be taken back. Jeu.video notes that this covers only those gains, not everyone’s holdings, and that the notice gives no numbers of players or Alloys.
What is not known yet
The notice gives no timetable for the recovery, so Alloys may not have been removed yet. Jeu.video reads it as saying permanent bans can follow an investigation, but not for every transaction automatically. It also points out that the security team’s account of the scheme hasn’t been checked independently.
What it means for buyers
The notice lets Team Jade reverse a trade after it’s done. Supplies or Alloys bought from a seller who passes them along in a rigged match can be recovered later, and the seller’s account can be banned too. Delta Force’s premium currency is sold officially, so the safe way to spend money on the game is the in-game store. See our Delta Force page for how the market works.
