Who killed me?

[1man]

How the hll am I supposed to know who killed me other then the one that shot me the most?
Why do I want to know this you say?
Well if I need to report a player but also it's interesting statistics.
I think the way it's done now, that you only see the one killed that killed you the most is pretty idiotic. There is always something dumb in a quite good game that is irritating.
Fix it for gods sake!

Honestly I think you're asking the wrong question.

You should be asking where and how you were shot rather than immediately jumping to who.

Yea a killed by notification would help identify cheaters. The game already has the capacity, one time I threw myself off the landing ship on Omaha beach and when I died , it said" You were injured by myself".

Some servers have custom commands, that make these features possible.

For example the WTH server has a command !wkm or !whokilledme, that if you type this in the chat after you redeployed when dying, you get a notification with details on who killed you.

Why are you censoring the word "Hell" in a game called "Hell Let Loose"? Lmao

Eh what? If I ask a question, then it's the question I ask not your question.

There needs to be harsher penalties for cheaters who are caught.
At the moment there is no penalty, because even if they are caught, they might get a vac ban or game ban, but are still able to play online in other games. An account is not a person, the person is never banned, but these people pay for games with their credit / debit cards, which most financial institutions require a fixed address, Valve et al, know who these people are, and don't ban them

The reality is, when your business model is user growth, you tend not to look too closely at your users. This is a business decision to maximise profits, at honest gamers expense.

20+ years they have had to sort this long standing problem, but they CHOOSE not to address is comprehensively

There is even a ladder that tracks the most prolific cheaters in steam
https://steamladder.com/ladder/vac/

All of these users listed on that website are still able to log into their accounts
That ♥♥♥♥ needs to change, fast, but don't hold your breath

In the immortal words of Frito Pendejo, the epitome of every business out there

"I Like Money"

Yes absolutely I agree, a account is not a person and the person is never banned. It's actually ridiculous. PPL will just create a new account and continue to cheat.
Why are game developers not putting more effort on combating cheating? That is just something I can't understand?

Yeah! I agree
I think they are short sighted, and a bit dumb. If they want to make money the should use their brain a bit. If a game would be quite cheat proof it would be super good for business actually. And yes as you say, there are many potential solutions to cheater the cheater problems. Just do not send all data from the server to the client that the client does not need to know. Let the server calculate what data/info needs to be sent to specific gamers according to their position and field of view simply put.

Oh that is nice to know! It should be something the server should then announce as a message when joining the game. Have not seen any server have this option?

Yeah, that doesn't make any sense. You literally don't shorten ANYTHING else. For instance, you use to instead of 2, you instead of u, why instead of y, etc... What is the point of taking one letter out of hell to shorten it when you type everything else out if not to censor it? It would be understandable if you wrote shorthand throughout the entire post.

How does valve "know" who these people are? Personal details are encrypted when paying for things. Valve NEVER sees any of it, just the money. They would have a massive lawsuit on their hands if they had all of this personal information for employees to steal and use. And the banks can't just give out personal information either.

That's not the information ever conveyed in war; the parents get a letter, but it doesn't say Hans Vollemar from Leipzeg killed Stuart as he peeked from a hedgerow.
