The scoop on Internet cheating and how to combat it. It's just a question of if they even try.įrom an old article in 2000. There are many things the devs can do to punish cheaters and make sure they will not return. No warning, no 3-day ban, straight up permaban from the first attempt to cheat. In Blizzard's games, if you cheat, even if just once, Blizzard not only ban your account permanently, they also ban your IP address and your hardware, they don't care if you make a new account and buy a new copy, you will be banned again. I've never played a game single player or MMO, that someone didn't figure out a way to get an edge. Those same people will stab you in the back IRL to get ahead - it's just life.
There are several 3rd party tools, cheat engine being the most popular, that allow players to modify all sorts of variables in this game, giving them a huge advantage over other players.Īnd you just want to stick your head in the sand and pretend it doesn't happen? What's the point of posting a topic like this? Because to me it looks like you're standing on a hill screaming 'HEY GUYS! PEOPLE CHEAT IN THIS GAME AND GET AWAY WITH IT! MAYBE YOU SHOULD TOO?', but what do I know, I don't cheat.
