Hackers which can unlock your achievements

[[?]legit]

I find it crazy that in some multiplayer games, hackers can unlock all achievements for other players in that game. So not only can they hack your ingame stats, but also your steam stats.

When a game has such blatant security breaches, so that other people can control your achievements, isn't this game violating the tnc's of steam? Shouldn't steam force these games to fix that ♥♥♥♥ asap?

Because that is a weird thing and doesn't really make sense.
AChievements are tied to the client and cannot be unlocked by another player in a far away location.

That would require some really weird stuff to go on.

Yes, it's happening in Call of Duty games. Call of duty black ops 3 zombies is one example. If you're playing a game with a hacker, he can reset your game stats and unlock all achievements in this game.

The worst part is, it then looks like you have used SAM to cheat your achievements.

Its ALL TRUE! I found many steam accounts that offers to unlock all achievements for other players in game for 8 or 10 euro! As well with all the in game items and achievements you can purchase wallhacks, aimbots etc. There are "special" accounts ( 99% of them are russian), you add that person to your friend list, wait about 3 min and its all done! Thats one of many reasons why I stop buying games from steam! If I purchase a game I expetc to play it with no cheaters or any weird stuff going on, just enjoy the gameplay! Unfortunately as along as you pay for your game steam dont care about cheaters or mods... You recieve the bill now its your problem! You might report cheaters or those special accounts but there will be no reaction... sad but true!

Hacked lobbies are nothing new in CoD games. Don't trust random servers.

A lot of shady stuff is going in call of duty games on steam, especially on the older ones.

Black ops 2 has rce hacks, where hackers can gain control of your pc in the worst case.

How can this happen on steam? Why does steam allow such crazy things on their platform?

I'll give you an example, this is an description of one of those "special" account found on steam:



I add only for paid 10 th PRESTIGE & UNLOCK ALL in all CoD games.

I'm removing people from friends after unlock ,

because this account is just for boost .

No download, no account access.

No VAC for that , also it's permanent unlock.

Unlock provided in lobby by mods, it takes 20-30 seconds.

Account comments are closed for customer privacy.

I leave + Rep in your profile after unlock,

and u can recommend me to your friends.

How to pay : Ask about my paypal . Choose euro currency to pay.

I heard it was even worse in that multiplayer section of Red Dead Redemption 2. Hackers(?) could do stuff like spawn chests infront of you that, when opened, could trigger the anti cheat system and ban your account.

There was a time that I would report a cheater in game, but if you see the same player cheating over and over again, he got reported not just by me but by other players on the server as well and his still allowed to play it means steam dont care, we did try with screenshoots, recording games but there is no steps taken against those players! Simple you pay we sell, thats it! Whatever happens in game its your problem!
