Solution to take care of hackers

(SWGamer) #1

Hey I came up with an idea to take care of the increased number of hackers in dirty bomb which I posted on Steam discussions and got a lot of attention and people suggested posting on forums to get noticed by Devs.
So here it is.
Orginal Post:
http://steamcommunity.com/app/333930/discussions/0/348292787751995640/

"So basically copy a bit of csgo and lets introduce overwatch or something like that maybe Dirty Guards , I dont know I suck at names.

So the idea is the person if reported a demo will be recorded and uploaded to a server and maybe a group of LVL 20+ are choosed as Dirty Guards.

And dirty guards lvl must be greater than the hacker’s lvl and they will get a notification and they will review and if most of them vote that he is hacking then he will be banned for 1 to 2 weeks and dirty bomb devs will receive a demo also to permanently ban him or if he is innocent he gets unbanned.

Also if a Dirty guard gets a report wrong his vote count goes from 1 to 0.75 to 0.50 to 0.25.

And also they get reward of 1000 credits for correct report.Also if dirty guard get a report wrong when he gets his second one correct he only gets 75% of the reward then if again wrong 50% and lasty down to 25%.

Also the name of hacker is not shown to stop any favouring.

This method is 90% fail proof and MUCH better than the anti cheat we have now."

Thanks for reaching the end.

Youtube Heroes anyone?

I don’t know about the level restriction of being a Dirty Bomb hero… being high level doesn’t make you a good person. There are too many people out there who are like:
“WUT? He landed THAT shot? I wouldn’t be able to do that! So he MUST be a hacker! REPOOOORT!”
Also people shouldn’t be rewarded to report/ban hackers. The fact that there is one less hacker out there ruining the game should be reward enough.
Maybe a trinket once when you’ve been a good and faithful hero for like a year or something but even that might be too much. But in no way rewards for reports.

Yes High level does not mean skill but it means game sense which is developed by time.
Also I dont support any rewards its up to SD to give rewards or not.I just support the idea.And no youtube heroes is accesible by everyone and I am trying to show concept of CSGO overwatch where Gold nova above can only review reports.

it could be a good idea, but it will probaly be implemented in 2018/2019 if were hopefull.

I’d rather deal with an occasional hacker who is then banned with the next wave of NGS updates than deal with potentially being banned by people who don’t like me, or just think I cheat when I don’t.

really BAD idea

(SWGamer) #7

Then everyone in csgo will have been banned.

Also I saw a hacker still playing after 3 weeks and now since the anti cheat is weak more hackers are arising.

Also your name is anonymous and unless a certain percentage of them say you are hacking you won’t be banned and also these bans aren’t permanent.

NGS anti-cheat is just bad hackers won’t stay down making new steam profiles are minutes away.

From what I have noticed hackers come in cycles. The character they represent is older than most of us now. That character is not going away soon. They will always exist in some form. All attempts our species have made in order to remove that character have ended in failure as well as millions dead in the process. This is at least what i noticed looking through the history recorded by our species.

There are definitely methods, but society finds them to drastic to implement. (and no, I’m no talking about threatening people, or “getting rid of them”… :tongue:)

Going to link to the other active thread as it is relevant.

Ok ok… Ideas to deal with cheaters left and right… What I really need is an idea to deal with nexon employees on 8 hour coffee break on a daily basis so we can get some progress on this matter? :smiley:

tl;dr
ingame report function is the overwatch by nexon admins. is ok with 2000 player base

The idea is just so wrong. Mechanic of hack detection shouldn’t be human and should be 100% automated (and yes, it could be invasive). Unreal Engine is a hack infested platform, games are developed based on hack mechanics (take BL2 for example).

You know both Nexon and/or SD can just order some of their crew to play DB on daily basis.

So that maybe they could discover cheaters by themselves and taking action faster without relying too much on players report.

so you think hack detection is a job now? Where are you getting this?

and besides… using lvl 20+ is a bad idea… use competitive players instead as they have alot more experience about game mechanics in general and the know of what is possible in the game and what isn’t…

(K1X455) #16

there exists over lvl100 that uses hacks
