I am so on board with making cheating illegal, they need to be taught a lesson and get hardware banned on top of it

[@Nitroh-]

Hardware bans do nothing. People can spoof them, same with IP bans.

[@exposingthetruth3821]

Lol, any cheater worth a grain of salt doesn't get caught. Most of them are the top 3 percent trying to get to the top top, so you can hardly tell they are. Most of them are gamers you know, streamers you know making videos about cheaters. And you clone and spoof your hardware IDs. You can even route your information through innocent people's consoles and pcs, getting them banned. If the top cheaters are smarter and richer than the gaming companies, and you use corrupt Ukrainian companies to sell the proprietary info, they won't stop anything.

[@CertifiedClapaholic]

The problem is that then they sell the hardware to unsuspecting buyers who are now banned from a game they never cheated in.

If I see someone who obeys the mechanics of the game, yet somehow drops 70-10 3 games in a row (yes, I got this level 30 guy 3 games in a row), does that count? Im pretty sure that counts, since I went and checked XDefiant tracker and found his career kills per match was 30. So likely 15 before procuring hacks. There's a lot more to cheating than just flying in the sky.

[@CertifiedClapaholic]

I have a friend that is borderline pro at CoD and he shreds on this game, I promise you he's not cheating, he just is built differently. I built his PC and I know he doesn't have the understanding of PC software to cheat. Some people really are just stupidly good at shooter games.

[@antwannavarro4780]

I think the only problem with going full blown legal action is the implications it has for irrelevant games and how publishers could use a new law to also go after modders and ppl who just mess around in single player games. It would let them go after game preservers who just wanna make roms for old Mario games or whatever. Big companies already using the legal system and copyright to take down a lot of content that shouldn’t be. If u make a law allowing them to say u can’t touch any part of the games u but it’s one step closer to to paying for something you don’t own.

They’re a company working on a more advanced version of anti cheat that can detect not only the subtle differences between cheats and real game play, but even the subtle differences between players.

I asked them and they admited to be cheating they also said they had been using them for about 2 weeks now without getting banned.

[@cCueBasE]

Even if cheating was illegal, people would still find a way around it. DDoSing was illegal back in halo 2 but that didn’t stop them. Rockstar actually sued a few modders. Surely Ubisoft can do something similar.

[@alphacuz]

[@Volk_]

The biggest problem to making cheating illegal in my personal opinion is where the Line in the Sand is drawn in between cheating and modding. I can imagine the end of cheating will also lead to the end of modding too. They are programmed using similar frameworks, they publisher could argue mods are cheats maliciously and the risk would be too high for modders to continue

[@Volk_]

Additionally I do think that a higher punishment should be had. This will be especially easier for call of duty being that now it's owned by Microsoft that if your call of duty account has been proven to be cheating you lose your Microsoft account as well.

I have seen one guaranteed cheater in my 7-10 hrs of play (80+ kills on hotshot, I was on same team and ran around finding about zero enemies but TONS of tags lol) and I want to say I may have had a second encounter but that was the blatantly obvious one.

[@dusttodust915]

They'd have to be very careful on making cheating illegal. People get mistaken as cheaters all the time, and it be even worse for a game dev if they got sued for falsely banning someone cause of all the legal issues that person had to go through all cause they were mistaken as a cheater when they weren't.

[@jeyerlulz]

This would purge the cheaters big time, yes. But I can see it go the other way: for example, some publishers/devs consider MODS as cheats (looking at you, Rockstar) so I can absolutely see this being a loophole for these companies so people wouldn't mod games anymore. And for clarity, I'm talking about singleplayer games. Or some scummy publisher would make a trash multiplayer mode for their game just so they can abuse this law and not let their players make mods. So in the end, it would be fantastic and perfect against the cheaters, but I also can 100% see something like that happen.

[@BocchiTheBox]

Making cheating illegal is a bit too much. As good as it sounds at first. Problem is companies like say Nintendo will absolutely take advantage of a law like that to punish those who mod their consoles/games. Cheating, Hacking, and modding are all things that go hand-in-hand. And the lawyers these companies hire can easily twist it all to mean the exact same thing. I know it's easy to think in the context of online shooters like XDefiant and CoD. But these are not the only games with people who modify game files to make the games easier or harder. If Nintendo can sue the person behind the Hide and Seek mod in Super Mario Odyssey they absolutely would.

[@pricklycats]

I’ve only run into one cheater so far in this game their name was “BIG__MEAT”. I NEVER accuse people of cheating but this guy was crazy. The whole kill feed was his name for the entire match.

I agree with everything you say and It really sucks. But at the end of the day, it’s just a game and I can’t take it that seriously. That’s the problem I think. People be trying too hard these days to be good at a video game that gives you nothing in real life but Activision and other big corporations are pushing this onto the young minds that being good at video game means something and that’s how they make billions of dollars. Kids bragging these days about they’re so good at a video game is like saying I am good at watching TV. Like Ok, who cares. Because of how sweaty fps gaming has become, because of how important people have made gaming a part of their lives, people who can’t compete, will use cheats to ruin the day for sweats. Again, I don’t agree with this or condone it, but imo, that is why they’re so many cheaters these days. Back in the day people played to chill with friends and have a good time. Now it’s more of I need to best at this game, my KD needs to be a 2.5 or my life is done kinda mentality. Every kid in their moms basement wants to be a streamer these days. You look at most of these fos streamers dominating bot lobbies and use cheats and kids watching them wanting to be just as great as their fake idols doesn’t help either.

Play all I think the best way is the simply mark the account as a cheater, and then in the matchmaking process, only matchup cheaters with cheaters that’s the best way to handle them. Once you verify they’re cheating you can see all hacks or you can see them floating above the map or whatever the particular cheats are that are going on in a given game you just mark that guy a cheaterin a hidden feature on his account and then he only gets match made with other cheaters. Let them play each other.

[@aaronplays_]

There's demand, so there's supply, and therefore there's more demand. As you said yourself, these cheat-makers are earning millions, so a 10k fine would just be cost of business for them. They need stricter or more tedious punishments. And as of the cheat users, their id needs to be put in a public database when they're verified to have been cheating. One of the best approaches I saw was to not ban, but to make the cheaters play against other cheats only, put them in a special pool of matchmaking amongst cheaters.

Not saying this directly at Xdefiant but I believe a lot of these games (especially free titles) only pretend to go after cheaters because the cheaters buy microtransactions as well (probably a little more than regular players who knows).

It can definitely use some fine tuning but overall I like XDefiant. I think Mark Rubin is doing a great job with the progression of XDefiant but XDefiant does have a major cheating problem. Hopefully Mark Rubin and his team can deal with this issue before it drives players away from XDefiant.

[@gatlin1320]

They should just make every game account require a facial scan or some sort of biometric data to create. Then if you get caught cheating in an online game, your biometric data gets added to a blacklist that every online game uses. First offense means a 6 month ban from all online games and it doubles after every subsequent offense.

[@CactusJackAerial]

Ya let's not do that lol

[@gatlin1320]

Some problems I could see is if the biometric blacklist gets used for other things like getting banned if you express an ideology that the devs disagree with or something silly like that. Also, twins can share the same biometric data so there’d need to be a way that they can each have a separate account. If those problems could be negated then I’d happily scan my face or fingerprint to play an online game without cheaters and I wouldn’t see why any non-cheater wouldn’t. Making an account in this system would be the same as making an account today, it would just have you enter a biometric password instead of a string of characters. Biometric passwords are already a thing, so it’s not like it’d be a revolutionary change. Maybe it could something players could opt into.

​@gatlin1320Theres also a lot of other stuff to like I think there are a lot of players like me who don't want to have to but in are biometric data just to play a video "kind of creepy but that's just my opinion". And then on top of that you have other privacy concerns like what if the companies database gets hacked then everyone's biometric data is leaked? It's just to much bad for something like that to work Imo.

Seen the flying and I see dude jump real high

[@danschaefer4385]

I had a cheater on my team last night started the match normal and the other team had some decent players but nothing out of norm but apparently cheater was getting stomped and had to flip the switch. I saw 3 people just drop right in front of me I was like huh that was weird so I looked at kill feed bam 2 more all headshots with pistol so I reported my teammate and left the match. But I’ve also had two different flying cheaters and one positive Waller with soft aimbot

[@itsdare1493]

bro ever time i play i see et least one dude flying around the map

[@nicholasgrogan856]

I absoluelty love Mark Rubin and his team man. I love this game as well. XD is gonna go far man.

[@honestlynate7922]

I’ve been firebombed by an echelon. I’ve been shot and killed the moment I turn a corner from players knowing where I am before I do. I’ve seen players get quads with an mp5 while jumping up and down and in circles. Are they cheating or are they just really good? No one will ever know.

[@brianbird7866]

HOORAY! They finally realise the games full of cheaters!🤨

[@leoanderson3035]

Cheating should be illegal because it’s vandalizing the product someone created/bought.

[@GeoffAskewGolf]

my favorite cheat is being clapped before ive even spawned back in multiple times

[@Minecraftassassin-re6og]

I have two numbers in mind which could work as fine if anyone was to cheat 1st £100,000 Or £1untrigintillion (the equivalent of 10 and 96 zeros afterwards) If the first number doesn't make them think twice about cheating the second number definitely will (In fact I think it wouldn't just scare the cheater but the cheating provider as well because I don't think any cheating provider has £1untrigintillion in their bank accounts and i don't think even Microsoft has😅)

[@Acrolades]

I been playing since day 1 on ps5 and I only seen 2 cheaters 😂

[@Farat9622]

I just saw a vid on ai trained cheats that work through remote play by analyzing the video feed on pc and smoothly outputting analog and button presses to the remote play app while playing on a ps5 ... Online pvp is dying and its sad.

[@streamyrumble3716]

I feel that Microsoft could delete these cheat providers online before people buy them.

[@christianjustin20]

I have yet to come across a 100% guaranteed cheater in 35 hours of play.

[@dopemojo327]

I don't get it when it comes to cheating... to me, the greatest sense of satisfaction comes from improving as a player and winnig more matches LEGITIMATELY! Cheaters just don't want to put in the effort. I was HORRIBLE at FPS when I first started, back in the day. I was so bad that I quit playing pubs and played nothing but custom matches against bots until I got better as a player. It doesn't appear, to me, that people are willing to work for much of anything anymore... sad.

[@viraljaws4660]

Hey j long time lurker first time commenting. Could you by chance let me know what setup you have on your ak in this video? Looks great! Thanks!

[@JbowenDaMan]

I changed it up a tiny bit, I use the barrel stabilizing, front rail vertical, optic holo, rear grip heavy grip, stock precision

[@Sleepydee27]

Wait both stream on both at the same time!

[@Jim_RavenClaw13]

unless personal ID is provided to the gaming company to play the game its impossible to ticket or charge individuals. best thing is to combat cheat providers and pay to develop anti cheats. banning accounts for ever is the best punishment, its harder when a game is free but there is no other way. i dont understand how these people have fun cheating and then starting a new account over and over when banned. dont they care about their stats??

[@DayWalker_83]

FPS games and cheating go hand in hand unfortunately. It's never the blatant cheaters that cause the problems for me. It's the ones just using walls or a trigger bot subtly and not going over board. Cheating is so common and accessible these days that FPS games are riddled with it. People using things like DS4 and reWASD to get aim assist when using keyboard and mouse is even more of a problem.

[@Leo-in9si]

Yes amen there should be real world consequences for this behavior. Especially if you make money playing the game with this type of nefarious software.

[@whitenightandtheguildofidi208]

Can they not have something in the user agreement for cheating?

[@airassault1151]

That’s way to much government overreach lol.

[@crankynugget7355]

I dunno. If police catch you with an e scooter they can take it from you.£££ down the drain. Yet the market is booming, people don’t cheat like that when the games not made to make you buy stuff

[@LightningCarpetCareLLCApopka]

You make them pay a fine to play if they are caught.

[@kszytok]

Yes untill it is worth the risk cheat providers will take it as big money are behind that risk . But if the only benefit is advantage in game players might think twice before they load that nasty software . If legal actions are on the table

[@zanzeroth]

I dont notice cheaters on my team cause I'm to busy with my performance and trying to win while going positive. I'm also really bad at remembering user names so its hard for me to report them when I do see it. I've only had questionable experiences not something this blarant

[@Drewkungfoo]

I agree with all of your Points JB
