Psychologically, alot of cheaters are in a trauma cycle most of the time. They had their experience ruined, whether it was by other cheaters or legit players who are just better, and they enjoy passing the trauma on by ruining others people experiences. Because obviously its not very engaging nor fun to essentially watch a robot play the game for you. Its not about playing the game for them anymore. The loot disappears after wipe. Whethery they admit it or not, or even realize it, its about ruining other peoples experience.

[@Reksmore]

Agreed and it's sad/unfortunate

[@Mousenkeybord1]

I know some guys that do it, just making their own cheats. They try to find as many exploits as possible and have fun with it. Not really trauma or cause they suck at FPSers cause I know they are good. They do it to just ruin others fun. Period. Personally if I did it I would just like the thrill in not getting caught. But I wouldn't risk my 5,000+ hour account.

Not really trauma or cause they suck at FPSers cause I know they are good. They do it to just ruin others fun. Period.” That's different, they put in effort into learning to exploit, and the reward is getting to use the cheats or make money using the cheats. That is the same as getting learning to play the game, and the reward is getting to own people because you are skilled now. To give effort, there needs to be a reward. And you said they are good, but are they good enough to satisfy themselves. Some people I know are Diamond players, and they still feel inadequate. “They do it to just ruin other's fun. Period” NO, they do to reward themselves and just because you say period does not mean you're right, you are kind of dumb.

rust would probably be the best game ever created if there was no hackers, it has so much potential but just gets ruined

[@VdubK]

I feel the same way, sad thing is I run into atleast 1 cheater every wipe, idk if I'm unlucky or what but I quit for over a month, came back straight away, other espers, the game is actually going to die soon as Facepunch aren't doing anything about it...

[@Reksmore]

Facepunch is actively working on this issue all the time. As is EAC. It's a game of cat & mouse and every game has this issue.

[@teejmiller]

This is why I don't play rust anymore. I feel bad for the server admins that put so much effort into their craft and have to deal with these scumbags. Clearly, FacePunch doesn't give a crap as long as the microtransactions and building skins keep flowing.

[@Reksmore]

Facepunch is actively hiring a full time anti cheat team right now. Unfortunately in all games cheaters are a problem and it's literally unavoidable (pve games like helldivers have cheaters) ultimately there are limitations with EAC which is already an incredibly invasive anti cheat. The reality is to even be able to detect cheats you'd have to give up even more security of your pc to play the game and even then with people using 2pcs to use dmas its whole other problem. Cheats will always evolve to go passed any anti cheat and its a constant game of cat and mouse that's got billions of dollars on the line for cheat makers, match fixers etc. You can hardly blame the game for not revealing the steps they are taking to beat the mouse while the mouse is always trying to outsmart and work around the traps.

[@exaltedalpha2610]

You have to understand, cheat evolve. Very fast. Much faster than we can create an anti cheat. It’s not Facepunch’s fault in all honesty.

[@Luke-rj6bw]

FacePunch is Ahhhh, I played over 1K hours(not alot, But alot to me) more real about 1.3K, My steam got hacked and i was on vacation too when it happened.. so 2 days after i got hacked i realized from the emails. Chinese name, All friends gone, Random stuff done to my account. And the only game i got game banned randomly for is Facepunch... they wont unban or look into it because and i quote "If your steam has been hacked and then you got banned we can not and will not do anything because you should have had better saftey" and so now im out my favorite game... how dumb is Facepunch

[@VdubK]

@@Reksmore the game is proper shit from it all lately, I'm finding 1 or more cheater in every wipe, be it vanilla or modded, was playing earlier today as a solo, was fighting a 3 man team, one of the guys knew where I was everytime, CBA with it anymore now, I think that may be me done tbh, really sad as it was a decent escape/time passer, it's got 10x worse in the last 6-12 months for sure, it's becoming a common recurrence. The bit I don't get is like you asked the guy, how is it fun for you and he's just sat there brain-dead because at that moment he probably realised it's not fun to cheat, it's boring, I get like 12 year old kids doing it, I done it myself in the past but for grown men/women to cheat on a videogame it's pathetic, I think they forget, gaming was always created for fun, unfortunately it's spun into the competitive side of things which is why cheating is so rampant, wanting to show they're the best even if their not actually playing the game....Makes them feel good somehow ..I just don't get it

[@exaltedalpha2610]

@@VdubK I personally have about 5,000 hours in Rust, I personally see a cheater only once every few wipes. If that. I don’t know if you’re just unlucky, or what, but it’s not all that common that you’re trying to proclaim. You find cheaters in almost any survival, or competitive game. It’s not a game problem, it’s just a cheater problem. As I stated above, anti cheats don’t work because cheats evolve, and quickly. It’s easier to make a Rust cheat, than it is to create something to catch that specific cheat.

[@KAZPERFOX]

They have two computers he just told you he can spoof his hardware. There's no getting around that.

[@JCRascal14]

People already get past that. Even when anticheat has control over an entire cheaters computer, they can plug their mouse into a 10$ microboard thats spoofed as a regular board, and then plug that board into the computer. It appears just like a mouse and the anticheat doesnt do anything about it. Sure thats only for aimbot, or humanized aimbot, but if they want to they can get a second rig if they want to spend the money for esp like hacks

[@bad406camaro]

Reksmore why give a hacker airtime? all this dose is glorifying the cheating. The more you engage a cheater the more they glorify their cheats to others. "Hey, see I smashed Reksmore Use this cheat" As a community leader please do not feed the cheaters all it does is hurt the community. Please when you find a cheater report and move on. If a server dose not actively remove cheaters, then call out the server publicly. We are the community, and we need to put pressure on those who condone and through inaction further cheats.

[@joel7227]

Can anyone confrm the 'Cant see into boxes' statement? I play solo vanilla, and assume anyone can see in my boxes. So i'llintentially keep my materials and items, below my total raid cost - so if someone wants to raid AND can see inside, they can see it would be an overall net loss for them. Doing this i've gone 2-3 wipes without being raided at all. This could just be a coincidence or confirmation bias, but it feels like people can see what you have.

Back in the day (before video games) if u like wanted to play football with ur friends, and u were not good enough u had 2 options : train hard and get better, or just quit and look for something else. These kids ( i can just imagine how unsuccesfull there life could be ) now playing video games, but if they are bad there is the option to just grab mommys credit card and spend hundreds on cheats. So they can feel like they did something, achieved something, have the feeling they are better than others? Which is trully a lie, cause the cheats won not them... also how this guy wanted to justify he was cheating.. They dont even heard about what fair play, or a gentleman, or hard work is.... thats why they dont even get what the problem with this is. In our "great" "modern" society u cant say or do anything to other ppl cause u hurt their feelings... and if u do, it will have real consequences, like going to jail. But apparently in video games its okay. U can be racist u can say anything to anybody, u can ruin the games of hundrends of other honest players and what happens? U get banned... and 20 minutes later u can do the same shit from another account... basically u can act like a mini dictator... And oh god this shit is a multi billion industry, so ppl want this and buy this. I would be so curiuos what goes through their minds when they go to sleep after a "hard" day of cheating... And also who cares about my feelings? Cause my feelings when i put 1-2-5-10 hours to a game and one of these kids come and just ruin it are: i want to meet them in real life and just beat the shit out of them so they can learn for the rest of their life why not to be a dick. And this practice worked for tens of thousands of years. Now this is gone. But the human nature didnt change and it wont.

[@Kilo3Cav19K]

I dont play rust, but i played Escape from tarkov, used esp and noticed that majority of the raids I was in there was AT LEAST 2-3 other people cheating. Almost every raid, like id say 72% of the raids I was in there was 1-2 other ESP'rs blatantly tracking me through terrain and some of them were more blatant than that. They would OPK (one position kill) or use some form of Silent aim that krill is talking about which would literally shoot you through terrain/walls. I also saw a few people flying through the air. Or some of them would call me out by name, and tell me to drop the graphics card or ledx (high value loot) Its gotten better over the years which is good to see, however as of recent Escape from Tarkov has had a cheating epidemic; where theres been a vaccuum hack. People would load in with a large bag and would "suck" up the best loot in the lobby and just leave. Its pretty wild, but the "closet cheating" is pretty out of pocket/hand. Majority of players in EFT these days, use some form of ESP and would just avoid players/fights and just collect loot on the map and leave. that is Soft esp'ing which is what I did majority of the time. I would only be blatant to the people actively following me through a wall. and most of those times i'd just lose because they would have a better cheat software. It was a monthly sub, when eft first came out it got all the way up to 160-180USD per month or like 20$ a day for a key. It got pretty wild. Hopefully this helps shed some light on the community.
