[@jordanquast5]

Rough guess it's because epic knows that the hackers will make you think it's a skill issue so you'll wanna play their game more so they passively encourage it.

[@jordanquast5]

But also while I'm not one for hacking the idea of banning the console/system instead of the IP in terms of a casual game like Fortnite would probably cause issues with the fbi/Nsa at some point I'd think. Like I could see them demanding access to the software and epic/Fortnite would have to make a choice and given how they tend to be with most things I don't know that I'd trust them with that decision. 😂

[@misenteiuberchuberu1581]

Epic makes billions of dollars from in-game sales. So long as micro-transactions remain the focal point of their revenue, they aren't going to go all out on banning every single player that *might* be cheating, because I'm sure that's *a lot* of people. Epic's annual revenue might also explain why they aren't too worried about cheaters getting a chunk of the tournament money. It's just a drop in the bucket.

[@KingPr0o7]

At the end, the cheat developer states that more flags/detection (specifically hardware spoofing) in the game launching process would better deter/block said hacker(s). Regular anti-cheat software focuses more on added files or background scripts, scanning at the root level of the user's PC. Indeed, if sustainable detection was developed to check and ensure a user's HWID (hardware ID) it would block and sustain bans of these cheaters. But then again -- anti-cheat developers can only go so far, and as a learning developer myself, this cat-and-mouse game is only growing in complexity.

[@Iunajr3OOO]

you got the cat pfp (cat and mouse game)

[@KingPr0o7]

@@Iunajr3OOO Haha, yep!

[@normaluser-lm7hk]

Exactly that. Regular anti-cheat software like User Level Anti-Cheats can only go so far. I believe many game devs are now making kernel-level anti-cheat software to monitor any attempt of something trying to breach the Process' Access violations. It's hard to make undetectable internal hacks, but like the cheat developer said, it's got something to do with drives. I guess we can call it a civil war of Drives lol

[@marwanelhamassi6339]

@@normaluser-lm7hk ITS NOT THAT HARD THERE ARE MANY WORKING TUTORIALS ON GITHUB ON HOW TO MAKE CHEATS THAT ACCES MEMORY TROUGHT FAKE DRIVERS, ALSO ON HOW TO DO IT USING RASPERRY OR SECOND PC SO THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DETECT UNLESS ADMIN SPECTATING GAME LIVE

[@cappyboppy]

This cheating situation is so bad. I do this every tournament for the streamer I mod for. Once every so often I get a supsect apprehended screen, but mostly it doesn't happen, even when the cheater is being blatant and streaming the whole thing laughing in the face of everyone at Epic and greedily taking the earnings. At that point, Epic are beyond useless.

[@PaperclipZA]

Great video, Bens! It’s really important to understand how cheating in games like Fortnite, COD, Roblox and etc. works and why it’s harmful. For those who does not understand this Techny stuff, I got you covered. Let me break down some of the terms mentioned: 1. Cleaners: These are software tools that help remove unnecessary files and fix errors on your computer. Think of them like a digital broom that sweeps away junk to keep your system running smoothly. 2. Hardware Dismoving: This means safely disconnecting or removing parts of your computer, like unplugging a USB drive or replacing a hard drive. It’s like taking out a piece of a puzzle and putting in a new one. 3. Hardware Spoofing: This involves changing the unique IDs of your computer’s parts to trick systems into thinking you’re using a different device. It’s like wearing a disguise to avoid being recognized. Cheaters use this to bypass bans, but it’s unfair and can get you into trouble. And also, please remember that cheating ruins the fun for everyone, so let’s all play fair and enjoy the game! And just like Nick Eh 30 says always says: "Stay EHmazing!" Peace out.

[@DineroBags]

[@alanoodalshobrami1650]

The fact one of them was hacking with Travis Scott and the black knight backline is crazy to me.

[@Games-0147]

4:50 something to do something I have no idea what that means 😂

[@Gainsforlife]

W vid hacker content is beneficial because first of all it’s amusing af, it sheds light on hackers, educates people on typical hacker behavior and hopefully forces Epic to at least publicly acknowledge it or at the very least invest more into anti-cheat. I wouldn’t doubt it if the hacker has watched one of your videos lol

Hacking is fun lol

[@reavz8262]

I also heard that they do group bans, meaning they wait until several people have used this certain hacker program, and do a wide ban of the program and users.

[@dominikpro_]

That's why cheats have loaders with unique build id or whatever so that essentially means that if 2 are using the same cheat and 1 gets banned the other won't because their cheat is "different"

[@KajNought]

[@7pathsofpain625]

If epic games doesn’t want to do THEIR job and provide good service to its consumers they need to figure out alternative ways to fix the problem. I don’t care if they shut down the game for 6 months straight. They need to fix this issue. I’m also tired of hearing only about hacking in tournaments. They are also in pubs rampantly destroying the experience for other players. I work in business and this is terrible business for the amount of money they could be making. My kids won’t even touch this game anymore due to the cheating problem and before some dummy says well it’s just kids quitting… I spent a ton of money on skins and everything they wanted on the game. This is losing them revenue weather they see it or not.

[@c21secco]

I'm on PC which has no aim assist :(. I reported so many never once got this message from your video. I don't game ranks or tournaments cause the cheats as your video shows. What a video INCREDIBLE!!. I see so many default skins cheats than gamers with skins killing me. Mind boggling how these guys score 30+ kills on aim assist abuse ups downs away from sights never leading a target miss shots catching following like locked ON to kill YOU with every shot, and is accepted. How they make videos to get paid and some gaming on PC as you can see how they are gaming with desk arms spread apart on K&M killing like nothing software device driven, and is accepted by the community and FN. Makes you see they might be using something....and they don't care in my opinion to get them out with ANTI CRAP and lose money....... This is why I mainly do quest and sometime I beat the cheat too. I usually die half a second fully shield fully health from distance, cheater then disconnects. Seen a guy in ranks previously ZB display 2000+ crowns in front of me, and he was laughing too. So BROKEN Millions dollar game. Disney, marvel, DC investing on these??? Great video subscribed!!! There's a lot more we don't know behind the scenes...yet we see and die invest on FN every day........in my opinion. Dollar talks in this game.....YT should screen this honest gamers videos in my opinion.......... the youth is following this ways...... Yet opinion varies!!

[@crazytrainvde]

what i cant figure out is a lot of other games have many different types of anti cheat systems in place (even if they arent full proof) IE like Punkbuster and yet Fortnite does the bare minimum. With the loot this game pulls in they should have a top notch anti cheat program running and scanning to ban folks immediately.

[@SunshineMix101]

What if I were to tell you that Fortnite is not a game, but a carefully orchestrated experience crafted by Epic Games to keep you hooked? Imagine that instead of a battle royale where 100 players truly compete on equal footing, what you’re experiencing is more of a controlled simulation. The algorithms behind the game do far more than just calculate hit damage or determine storm circles; they subtly steer the entire match, influencing who wins and who loses. Every player’s performance, every unexpected shot, every dramatic last stand-they’re all influenced, if not outright decided, by the software. The game only pretends to be a level playing field, when in reality, the outcome is a product of Epic Games’ design. The illusion of competition is maintained to keep you invested, while the true nature of the "game" remains hidden, designed to keep you engaged, spending, and coming back for more. What you thought was skill or luck may just be the invisible hand of the algorithm, deciding your fate long before you drop into the map.

It really depends on how it appears from 3rd person because they might not have all the evidence or he might not be rage cheating for them to actually ban him and I don't think they take esp itself as evidence because that's pretty irrelevant regardless of everything

[@stevez5134]

worst case Fortnite becomes bots playing each other either say an undetectable AI that gets video feed and controls computer or direct to the server API. the API should give the least amount of information to the clients, but i guess at some point you need to know when that person behind the wall is there on the client machine.
