Palworld devs: Just bin the idea of open-world PvP here, for your sakes.

[Steve]

Look, I think your game's fun and I'm really glad it's been successful so far, but as you're finding out, trying to keep this game secure is five nightmares and a bad hair day.

It's only going to get worse. Unreal is one of the least secure engines on the planet. Every survival title built in Unreal, ESPECIALLY if it offers PvP, has been plagued with cheats to the point that game development is severely hindered.

It's just not worth it. If you HAVE to do PvP, do arena-only and make it a separate game mode. But you're not gonna win the fight against Unreal Engine cheating. Don't even bother with it. Just walk away from that trap, because you're getting baited into it by people who would love nothing more than to sell cheats for Palworld.

Coming here to give dev feedback is like trying to find who’s in command at the Do Lung bridge scene in Apocalypse now.

Or, Here's a wild idea, Just don't play on servers that will be PVP.
Stick to friend servers or moderated PVE communities.
Easy.

This isn't about avoiding cheating. That's gonna happen anyway, and is as we speak, even without the PvP. This is about avoiding a waste of resources. If this game doesn't have a PvP mode, then it won't have as many cheaters or cheat programs because there will be less interest in sales of such.

This is about hitting cheatmakers in the wallet while preserving as much dev resources as one can to put into the PvE side of things.

It's lovely that you're inventing intent but I never once said anything about cheaters.

Just smiles, while shouldering the M79 launcher, and walking back to his spot in the bunker.
