I have some major concerns with Deadlock with potential bots, hackers, and cheaters

[Labyrinth2 0]

We have already seen that Valve has a problem with hackers, cheaters, and bots with other multiplayer games, particularly with Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike 2.

How can I have faith that this game doesn't suffer from an even worse outcome if they cant even fix the issues with those games? We all know those bots, hackers, and cheaters are gonna flood Deadlock the moment they get their hands on it and cause mayhem to actual players, especially when there us a very likely chance that cosmetic MTX's will be in the game.

Just throwing the hard question out there that has to be asked.

You're speaking of problems in Valve games, yet Valve have never announced a game called Deadlock. Actually, Valve haven't announced a game in years.

We won't know jack about it until they post an announcement about anything related to the game.

I doubt the game will even be named "Deadlock" (if it even exists) as a game by that name already exists.

And even if it did, there is no guarantee it will ever be released.

Because “past performance is not indicative of future results,” presumably.

This aged well.

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
