Is there anyone who doesn't cheat now?

[Handsome Inquisitor]

9/10 players are suspicious. I've played enough competitive level games for years and years to know the difference between a good player and a suspicious player. Seems like ever since that cheating discord got outed, it only magnified the amount of cheaters tenfold.

Just played against someone with auto low parry on --- 1 frame reactions from the replay, and every single 12f low poke parried

Yes, but it is going to get only worse as time progresses. Tekken 7 had this same issue and due to no one at Namco having no idea whatsoever how to combat them, they never found a solution to the rampart cheating and probably never will. Looking back, I don't think they even tried with Tekken 8. I mean, have they even ever addressed the issue anywhere? I can't remember a single post/tweet from Harada or Murray, where they would have spoken about this issue.

Plenty of posts and tweets about people asking them to do something about it, but never any where they would have actually responded to them.

And to be honest, unless we move to completely server-based gaming - where the games we play online are hosted entirely on a remote server - I don't believe it will be possible to root out even the most basic cheaters.

One brilliant solution one company once had, was have players with enough reports on them being cheaters be able to play only against other reported cheaters. That way they would not be bothering the regular people with their annoying bs, and instead just bash their heads against other equally incompetent morons, who can't be bothered to learn how to play properly.

But this is an industry-wide problem currently, and it has been getting worse with each year. Unfortunately, the only two viable options right now are the dedicated server based gaming I mentioned earlier, or having the server access to your computer via intrusive programs that constantly scan you for cheat programs and whatnot.

usually console players dont cheat, max offense they can do is just using macros for things like electrics, but compared to pc cheaters, console players are angels.

This is why taunting/teabag in Tekken is so important. It can triggers an emotional response in the opponent and may even force them to play more authentically to hide cheats. Thankfully T8 is so volatile, when their hacks slip up, you just need to capitalize on a single mistake to turn things around in your favor. I teabag literally everyone I play in Ranked.

You can test for low party scripts easily by whiffing attacks, their scripts kick in even if you’re not in range

And most cheaters player Kazuya because he’s basically a badly designed 50/50 bot of a character

Nothing is done about cheats. It’s actually pathetic

You can't say is there is anyone
and in very next sentence say 9/10

because that means 1/10 doesn't

speak sense please lmao.

i can confirm i had 3 cheaters in a row. I watched the replay and it wasnt legit.
The command history was very suspicious.

Tekken8 has a huge cheater problem. I even tried mixups several times to reaffirm it and these guys weren't even fuzzy ducking.

the input was backward backward downward backward, at the same frame.

Multiple times by different players.

[Mysticlights]

Yes, most players don't cheat. The only suspicious behaviour that I see often is mishimas doing perfect ewgf all the time possibly using macros for the input.

When you make a historically competitive series a casino- many will try to start counting cards.

[VETRIAL]

well no point in playing this game.

The problem with people nowadays is that just because it never happened to you = it doesnt affect you! You will find out sooner or later. Its only a matter of time.

just watch the command history, nobody can guess 10/10 times with a clean and almost tju level input.

or people doing electrics with a just frame inputs (community controller mapping cheating), sadly the game will never detect this people since they can say "uh muh execution is just good"

[VETRIAL]

well u cant press 3 directions in one input as 1 frame in a row multiple times thats just sus .

[Saiche]

You just ass, guarantee you've gone against one cheater max
