Cheating Discussion - Mega Thread
Permalink   
 


Hello!

 

To avoid multiple post on the Forum, please use this big thread to share/discuss your thoughts about cheating problem. Many of us have experienced it, many of us would like to share it with others. One, big thread could be an open space for discussion, but also will help keep the Forum clean, organized and less messy. 

 

❗️ But, before you start posting, let me explain some major rules:

- avoid toxicity: it will not solve the problem, don't insult other Users, try to provide healthy discussion here. 

- do not post any screenshots with nicknames with accusation about cheating: any suspicious player should be reported via game (on the death screen), none of us can be sure that your accusation is true. 

- do not post statistics without data: remember that your experience is different than other Users. 

- do not spread false information: please, let's not spread false accusation or theories without any proof or evidence; I will attach list of already talked hot topics about cheating.

Please, be sure that you've also understood the Forum rules (link); any comment that breaks them will be hidden and could lead to warning points. 

 

There was other one big thread, here: link.

 

Some useful topics: replay system, anticheat, cheaters are not profitable for Devs, MAC address ban, shadowban for cheaters, invisible Scavs as cheating detection.

 

 

Feel free to talk, discuss, suggest or ask questions!

I see, BSG has already discussed the topic "Cheaters" alot and I appreciate it. But also the Cheats has been developed into an amazing "mini-game". There is so much of stuff in EFT, what cheater platforms do sell and provide. It prospers, flourishes, thrives and booms. EFT has some poker elements, where you decide with how much you go in and how long you stay in and so on. So its for some people quite a gambling game, which can become addictive - especially combined with money buying cheats. So basically yes, you won't completely eliminate cheats from a game as long there is a (sick) will. But especially because of the above explained cheating motivation, the cheaters should be found faster and be punished harder. Yes, cheats can be hard to be detected, but their results can been questioned. I don't care if about a cheater with a k/d-ratio of 50%, but about 99%? Or that cheaters quite 0.001% die when geared up, but die when naked in order to "scramble" the kd-ratio. Or if they consequently solve quests way to fast and getting rich very very fast. You could rank the players skill internally and realize that some players having no problem killing one of the highest skilled players. All those things BSG can have insight and analyze these in order to track cheaters down. No one would cheat, if they are forced to hide themself by having the same player statistics as a non-cheater. In such cases, they would give up cheating and join the EFT Discord to get along with others. With analyzing those statistics and key data, BSG even wouldn't need players to report one another. So is it really so difficult to save some of this data and run some SQL-commands???

It does seem unfair if you got banned without cheating, especially when trying to teach a friend. Hopefully, BSG will review your accounts soon and resolve the issue.
If you're still hunting for a solution to avoid future issues, you might want to try using an HWID spoofer. It can mask or change your Hardware ID, which I use for security reasons. You can check out this link at https://www.cado-lolscript.com/hwid-spoofer/ for more details.
Hang in there, and I hope things get sorted out for you. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Any advice on how to handle this?
