The game is build with Unreal Engine so it is to be expected.
In my 31 hours I met just one guy that felt off.

Yeah there are hackers for sure. Been watching people attack super fast. The last few days of this demo are people hacking and everyone elese being hyper aggressive... its dad really..

Yep, just got killed by one myself. Went as a fighter using dual swords and he.. pretty much attacked me 15 times in one second. Spectated him a bit and yeah, thats some speed hack ♥♥♥♥ going on for sure.

Best part? the report button dosnt work.

P2P connection can be hacked. Most of the time you've been kicked from the lobby.

Where's Lowbie to come state that it's all a skill issue? lmao Yea the game has cheaters, if you've played Hardmode, it's kinda filled with them, people teleporting around. I don't see much cheating in the regular adventure mode though.

Hackers in almost every game atm

Ran into an interesting one in Arena (why would you even bother to cheat in Arena 0.o): Swordmaster gear hacking wearing heavy armor and wielding dual daggers. They managed 31 kills before the timer expired.

This game type will die due to dissatisfaction from the non-cheating player base (the majority) if the loot system remains as sparse as it is now. If you are kitted with blues now and you get killed by some nitwit hacking, it is a real pain in the ass to re-gear. If you could pick up a new set of gear your next run... people will be more forgiving of the issue of cheaters.

Setbacks in an extraction game are to be expected. Setbacks all the time where you lose your best gear and have to take several hours to restore it will drive off the players from boredom/frustration.

You probably don't want to hear this... but it's the simple truth.

Hackers exist and are going to exist no matter what we, developers, anyone does.

The simple fact of the matter is even a large studio like EA is outnumbered 1 employee to a few thousand players. Even if an employee was only outnumber by 1000 players and only 1% of 1000 players creates cheats (10 players) for a studio like EA that's still 100+ different cheats they have to combat all being developed independently with the single goal of overcoming a single anticheat.

It's just not realistic to combat this kind of community. It's the same issue the Indian Government has with Scam Callers. These guys are numerous and even if you take out one cell or call center, another one crops up the next week. It's like battling Entropy.

It sucks, and I wish we could have a magical solution that stopped any and all cheating but that's not realistic. It's never going to end, and ranting and raving about it on steam discussion boards doesn't help. It just bolsters the egos of these cheaters.

NOTE: I did say CREATE cheats, not use them. The users of cheats well outnumber the creators. If you factor in how many reports a company gets about legit and non-legit cheaters the volume is impossible to realistically handle. Everyone thinks a game dev can snap their finger and magically make the problem go away... if that was the case there wouldn't be any cheaters. The reason that this has grown into such a problem is because it's impossible to stop. Year after year more and more people get into cheating or creating cheats for one reason or another... it will never end. It sucks.. but what can be done about it? The answer: Nothing.

Now it's whole teams teleporting to the spawn area.

[Kelluthien]

just got guy that Iked everyone by just touching them with staff, player mob etc, coudnt even be reported

[Dekeon1969]

If they make a PVE only zone or area for single players only then you won't have to worry about the cheaters. Cheaters suck and ruin a game. After being a victim of a cheater, I have no desire to play this game anymore. This game will die if they don't correct that.

Magic in hard mode just kills everyone in 1 second and bosses

[Amigo500]

super lame game full of cheaters and tryhards
