NGS Cheaters, are/will they be a problem?
To inform a larger group of people or to get a legit reason on why this guy's been recorded "cheating" and looks like they're 100% cheating, has anyone else seen any?
I don't wanna give people more reasons to trash the game since i genuinely think it's gonna be pretty good in the future and its "alright" now, but I just don't want cheaters to become a problem in the future because no one's brought it up or noticed yet.

Not gonna name and shame cause that stuff usually isn't allowed and I'd like to get a few comments talking about it, so just search it up on reddit, its the only post I've seen.

For context if you haven't heard of and/or don't want to find the post, Guy basically teleports around the entire map and kills everything instantly. trials included, has a beefy straga and some basic gear on to help. So far i think they're mainly hanging around south, (probably because of level 3 enemies and more enemies than central), since the Ael Note C market is completely scuffed, with random amount of 939, 523, etc etc posted on the first page alone.


Edit: To make it clear, I couldn't really care less about the individual cheater(s), they'll (hopefully) get banned eventually. I'm more worried about cheaters in general getting worse/more widespread and becoming an actual problem, such as completely bricking the market for anyone trying to make money from non-scratch items or becoming a new source of RMT bots that aren't just credit card scams.

Everyone is thinking the same thing so keep insults to yourself please, definately do not name and shame them or witch hunt, and a special spot for:
Characters names are not unique, literally anyone can use yours and others. Do not find random people with a cheater's name, assume its them and get your friends to mass report them or harass them, etc. Character names are turned on by default (which i reckon is kinda dumb but whatever), so either change it to off or make sure you have their account name. An example is those PN42042069 people you see around everywhere, that's a person who hasn't changed their account name yet.

Better to just send that directly to the proper channels. No matter how bad they are being viewed by some of the playerbase. Since you yourself already know stirring up public drama is bad.

Didn't really think about that yeah, this is just gonna do the same thing as the reddit post and people will cry that the game's dead, etc, even though I've literally only ever seen this guy once while semi-actively looking. I still don't like that idea that eventually it could become a problem because no one's noticed/talking about it though. Plus I don't know the proper channels outside of in-game reporting

Cheating in a PVE only game... That guy must be a special kind of stupid. The idea of racing to level 20 just to hurry up and wait for updates. The idea of getting the very best 5 star item when 6-15 are not even released yet. Yea special kinda stupid.
This game dosent even have bragging rights on over the top forums.
This.... right here is about it. Guess his plan kinda worked. Got us to talk about him.
well mr i cheat in PVE game guy. if your reading this with a Hardon. Ill give you 1.. not 2. 1 golf clap.
Hope its worth it.

I suppose I could've worded it better but please don't go on a witch hunt, post this guys username, etc. I dont want the thread getting locked when people start talking about killing his family in real life or something else equally dumb. Best thing to do is find his name through the reddit post, report him on sega's support or wherever and hope sega does something before cheaters become an actual problem.

I cant believe someone actually made a cheat engine or scripts for PSO.. This has to be the result of epic boredom.
Now PVP games. Pub G. Fortnite anything EA games and Activision. Yea there eaten alive with cheats scripts and exploits. Theres monetary gain in those games. PSO2. Theres barely any streamers and for every 4 streamers theres one guy doing how too's.
Dont worry man no witch hunters here. Im sure everyone reading this just shook there head in shame.
The very idea of a basement dwelling chit stain that cant get anywhere in PSO2 to the point they feel the need to cheat.. Thats a sad sad person. Damn just the story alone gives you 10 levels for free in NGS. The local quests will max you out with there ever expanding xp payouts. Plus daily. The hell.
In PSO2... level 22 before you even step on the damn ship for a mission. Just talking to NPC's. Level 50 in a single sitting completing your first daily set and the starter stuff. I leveled my last char to 100/80 in 3 days. Just doing all the missions possible. and x5 Tokyo golds. These games are not hard. Your level is 1/10th the game. End game gear is the rest.
Porting around xp farming with a god item or hacked stat... Seriously what would be the point? If your godly.. Is he broke? lol can cheat damage but not cash for fashion...
That would be seriously funny.
XD I can 1 shot Shiva solo.... But cant buy that emote and look XD
That would be funny.

Maybe my wording is bad but I'd prefer it if literally no one talks about the cheater(s) as an individual person and more as a general idea that if we get more, it'll be bad. Name calling of any kind is just gonna get the thread locked, doesn't matter if its true or not.

added some extra bits to my first post about what i'd like people to not do.

I don't wanna give anyone ideas but this, it wouldn't be hard for enough cheaters to kill the market for anyone but hardcore AC scratchers and other cheaters.

it can get more dead

Whenever i buy my outfits for under 300k I always wonder what redboxers actually did that apparently ruined the market despite the fact I can get brand new outfits for cheap. Obviously f2p players are screwed but they'd be screwed regardless.

Everything is cheap besides hair and emotes. And while red boxers are partly to blame, it's more on sega for not only letting it happen but also scaring all their players away so there's literally like a handful of people spending so there's barely any stock of the uncommon things like hair/emotes making their prices stupidly high because there is almost no supply.

Yes, the game has hackers. Will sega say anything about the hackers -- no. Just like they have yet to say account funneling is bannable.

Try buying popular items not the ones no one wants.
