Its Time To Show Us You Are Doing Something

[Darkzero3802 637]

LO and @MattScott it is time for you to start showing us you are actually doing something about cheaters and hackers in game. It is painfully obvious that GFAC does not work and botters continue to run rampent in the game. Your GMs (if they ever actually show up in game) never investigate anything and instead they silence the users that call out cheaters and or say use the in game report system. The in game report system does not work and you have provided 0 proof to the community over the years that it does work and any actions have been taken. Because of this nobody uses the report system.

Not to mention the constant and blatent videos posted to youtube and streamed live on twitch of botters running around cheating with 0 repercussion. You as a company and anyone with power in LO have completely and totally failed in your jobs to deter and prevent cheating when it is so blantently put out there in public. You lose all credibility and trust when this stuff is brought to your attention and you just blow it off and dont take any action. What are you going to do as a company to start taking action against all these cheaters? What are you going to do to start providing us with stats on actions taken and prove when reported that things are looked into?

 

We as a community deserve a fair game with GMs and leaders that will enforce the rules, actively work to remove and deter cheaters and will have a level of transparency with the community that will prove when people and things are reported that it is looked into.

I think we're over that time where they gave a **** about it. As long Armas Marketplace is running, "everyone" is happy...

Edit: added Thanks reaction!

there are cheaters in Jericho that have been cheating for years, they weren't banned with easyanticheat, battle eye nor GFAC. I will say it again, FAIRFIGHT was the best anticheat and they removed it. It was the only system that made bans PUBLIC

If they have survived every anticheat, it may be time to consider that they might be legit.

lets make a public leaderboard for blatant cheaters, what could possibly go wrong?

FF was the best, it was slow but it worked. 

  Why they cheat at at a game with so little reward?

In any case, all of the AC's worked to some degree but with matt 

either letting the banned out of game jail or punishing them with 'Kid Gloves' 

instead of an ip ban or device cookie to identify the device or pc, 

he chooses to soft spank them and gives the legit player zero comp for dealing with them. 

If banned a player simply pulls out an alt account and continues.

 

 Not to mention, but imma mention, it is suppose to be a cop v crim game, 

not some squad based urban Medal of no Honor combat game. 

Everything they have done has taken away from the ability to Pretend that you 

are playing the role of a cop or modern criminal. 

 I miss the game but not that much, I've dropped in a couple times. 

Probly the biggest reason to leave was finding out that my sound kits did nothing. 

The music only works or is heard by others with the same audio file. 

This is not stated in the armas when purchasing sound and wheel kits. 

So I sat n played my music to people who couldn't hear it for years.

So the game has zero social value, unless ya like being insulted.

 Matt and Lo are never in game, I never see Matt.

This is blatantly wrong. There were tonnes of hackers during Fair Fight and the period when LO were in the process of buying the game from G1 when there was no clientside anti-cheat cos Punkbuster broke and had to be turned off was the worst experience I had in this game in terms of cheaters. People would fire up free cheats and ragehack for ages before FF bothered its arse to trigger a ban. The best was either EAC or BattlEye (I can't remember which one cos it was so long ago) that LO implemented when they came in first, but then stopped using cos the full feature set they paid for couldn't be implemented in this hot mess of a game. That's when I found myself dying to total bullshoot the least.

 

What you liked about Fair Fight was the broadcasts, not its effectiveness as anti-cheat software. What dictates whether an anti-cheat is good is how many hackers you see, not how many bans you know about.

 

 

 

I think we need to face reality. Off the top of my head, we've tried 5 different anti-cheat measures Punkbuster, FF, EAC, BattlEye and GFAC (and I bet I've missed at least one) and people have complained about cheaters the whole time.

 

So either:

A) There aren't as many cheaters as people say there are.

 

or

 

B) The game is such a mess on the back end that no anti-cheat software is going to be effective.

they can't be legit when you hide 300m away from the obj and enemy finds you. I'm talking about those cheaters that don't even care about hiding wallhacks/aimbots, 90% of NA population give up instantly when they face these cheaters.
