The game won't launch and shows error code "1-1704-30015228," usually described by players as an anti-cheat-related failure, sometimes only after playing successfully once already that session.
Also appears as: error 1-1704-30015228, ace error 1-1704-30015228, error code 1-1704-30015228, anti-cheat error 1-1704-30015228
This is Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE) — Arena Breakout: Infinite's anti-cheat system — failing to load or stay running, not an account flag or ban; multiple independent Steam Discussions threads report it, including one player who could play for hours and then hit it on relaunch. It isn't officially documented by Morefun, but the community fix that's worked for more than one reporter is reinstalling ACE's driver files directly rather than just verifying game files through Steam, which several players say doesn't help on its own.
What to try
- 01Go to C:\Program Files\AntiCheatExpert and run the uninstaller to remove ACE, then relaunch the game so it reinstalls the driver fresh — more than one player on Steam Discussions reports this fixed the error after Steam's file-verification alone did not.Reported
- 02If the error returns after a successful session, try rebooting your PC before relaunching rather than just restarting the game — one report links it to the ACE service failing to stop cleanly between sessions.Reported
- 03Check for other anti-cheat or driver-level security software running in the background (a second anti-cheat, a kernel-level overlay) and temporarily disable it — players have flagged this as a plausible conflict source, though it isn't confirmed for every case.Unconfirmed
