So many hackers...

[Huhruhkayn]

.... its a struggle just to quick join story mission or telegram before a hacker teleports you to a death cage, or shoots you from the other side of the map, or spawns an invisible death squad on you, or spawns a tornado on you, or sets you on fire while you fly through the air. LOL

I have the game on EPIC by the way. And can barely play without getting hacked in the first 5 seconds....

They are all over the place here on steam .. all multiplayer games are filed with stupid cheaters !

As if Valve aint doing anything to stop them

I played for like 60 hours out of those like 15 online and so far i've just seen 1 hacker and that one was just spawning dead animals in the city for whatever reason

It's not Valves job, it's Rockstars. They could easily apply BattleEye and nuke the majority of problematic modders like they did in GTA5, but they abandoned this game a long time ago.

inb4 'omg new BattleEye update' to appease everyone
Then queue complaining about that

Not that hackers are not a problem (I don't play online so I wouldn't know, really)

I've never had issues with Anti-Cheats. It's honestly the tinfoil hats that complain the most, thinking as if someone is stealing their credit card information, and Cheaters are the reason we need more intrusive anti-cheats to begin with given how much it can ruin the experience these days.

It won't solve all of the issues, but it would certain put a massive dent in the current modding community. Most of them use free menus, the only ones who actually have the money to keep buying new accounts and spoof are extremely small in number.

When it happened to GTA5 it cleaned up the lobby's pretty well, was able to jump in and not get some random weirdo stroking his massive ego with his mod menu every single session. Just a shame as this was one of their better projects and it's just now overlooked for GTA6 and its future Shark Card MTX store.

Is it possible to get banned for using lobby manager?

i dont think so, i was on it for a few months after my first encounters with these losers. i thought 'if they aren't banned, I won't be either'

there is a 'manual' way to do it, which does not involve mods, ima drop the link, but I recommend the lobby manager anyways

It's even easier way to do it manualy - meta file with the password. Lobby manager doing the same thing, but helps u to have more then 1 lobby and the actual interface to use. With meta file u can set the password n play solo or with friends who know ur password.

There is a hacker on every server, is kind of a general rule I live by after over 200 hours of only online play. I own the game on epic. I'll say this, most of the time its actually a non issue. If i get harassed by a scripter (calling them hackers is too much credit lol), I usually report them, and they are usually gone by then. If they teleport me and screw me out of what im doing. Press ESC go to online, select camp, join different server. If someone screws with your trading run, same thing, don't exit the game, just use the online button to switch servers and you'll still have all the supplies to restart the trading run. Scripters are a nuisance at best, if you know how to deal with them, however, I do think Rockstar has some onus here as they still have a massive playerbase in the game, and the game regularly comes up on the steam top sellers when its on sale. They should be implementing an anti cheat 100%.

You're talking nonsense. In the vast majority of cases, a cheater can still pursue you even if you switch servers. Reporting cheaters doesn’t work because their software includes an "anti-report" feature that prevents the system from receiving complaints against them. What’s more, the cheater can literally see with their own eyes that you’re trying to report them and can spam reports on you instead—getting you banned in the end. A cheater can do absolutely anything in the game. They can kill every player on the server under your name.

The fact that switching servers worked for you just means the cheater had no interest in harassing or punishing you. If they wanted to, they could see when you log in and out, your IP, and even your country. Their software can notify them when you come online so they can crash your game even when they’re not in the same session, among other things.

So don’t naively claim you’ve found "ways to deal with cheaters," because you haven’t. And deliberately joining public sessions knowing full well that a cheater could start tormenting you at any moment—only to frantically switch servers each time, losing progress—is like shooting yourself in the knee. That’s NOT a solution to the cheating problem, no matter how much you try to convince yourself it is.

Just because you’re willing to put up with this doesn’t mean others will tolerate it. So no, you did NOT find a way to fight cheaters. You just accepted it and keep playing in public sessions, letting cheaters force you to hop from lobby to lobby while sending useless reports that don’t even reach Rockstar.
