How the dev's need to adress the leaderboards at this point

[FallenActual]

Honestly with the sheer amount of cheaters on the event leader-boards, Myself having a sub 3 minute kill and not even near being on the leader-boards, the devs should just give everyone who achieved say a sub 4 or 3 minute IE 'SS' rank the pendant and go back to the drawing board on how future rewards are handed out, since they don't have an anti cheat in place ahead of putting rewards behind a competitive challenge...

Award and comment if you agree so this can get more eyes.

More like I don't care.

Yes, S rank with very tight time and then guarantee rewards.

People will cheat hard AF in this game, this game has no anticheat whatsoever, so it's a lost cause anyway.

At most they will remove all the clowns who couldn't keep it in their pants and had to do 8s times and such, but there are tons much smarter cheaters who cheat just enough to get a plausible result that passes the cutoff.

This is almost certainly going to spot on.

There is some exclusive pendant for arena quest rank achievement? Please tell me it is not time limited/FOMO?

Based take

yea, i managed to push into the high 3s. id hope that would land me a 9k spot atleast. i know theres some legit 2 minute runs, but can there really be that many thousands? not to mention the sub 2. and then would they really ban 10k people? yea screw the cheaters, but i dont see banning 10k people going well from a PR stand, even if they broke terms.

the event only runs for so long and kinda of FOMO since the pendants might be available later on but nothing is concrete sadly

agreed

It doesn't matter, this only would make more people to cheat.
We as players know when the cheating start and potentially end, but they have absolute no clue. So a lot of the 1'40-1'50 will pass as legit runs because it is theoretically possible.

I'm pretty sure they'll give up on this challenge idea, if not soon at least on the expansion.

[lolschrauber]

They won't even be able to tell who cheated apart from the Super obvious ones. This is not fixable and leaderboard rewards were a bad idea

Uhhh no it's not. Since time immemorial clear times of 00"00'00 were a staple in monster hunter. Never has Capcom ever done ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, because it's not a competitive game.

True but then some complete fool thought to themself let's give exclusive rewards tied to cheater board performance. Now they will be embarrassed enough to at least do some bans. But this was very predictable. Capcom has no idea how to do anything online competitive outside street fighter.

It’s exactly that and it completely killed my Motivation to Compete for that reward despite scoring a decent time and Rank on the leaderboards on Release day of Arena.
If they dont change this FOMO nonsense Arena will die quicker than it did in World.
As a matter of fact it should have stayed dead because it’s easily the weakest Part of the whole franchise.
Trying to Resurrect it with These stupid rewards is just the cherry on top.

i just scrolled through the leaderboard and even at place 1000 the times posted were still under 18 seconds (solo hunt) ...the amount of cheaters in this game is baffling and at this point i think it would be better to just get rid of leaderboards all together since there is really no point to it.
