You try put Easy id or Myid as demand to play on Steam and i bet 0 cheaters would dare cheat , scam, steal accounts or whatever they are doing illegal here anymore, because it would be so easy for Valve & the police to hunt the criminals then ...
Valve clean up this mess ..
it´s full of criminals destroying the games here on Steam
For example, if you coded a program that changes a memory address value to 999 which would correspond to 999 in-game currency, or one that fixes the mouse pointer right on top of an opponents head when the character model is within view, that is not copyright violation.
Also, most, if not all cheats are client-side only. They might modify data packets generated by the game which then gets sent to the server, but they do not themselves access the server in any unauthorized way.
I'll be in jail when pigs fly
You need precedence
No matter wich way you turn it then it is illegal and it is derivative !
let me explain ...
A “derivative work” is a work based upon one or more preexisting works, such as a translation, musical arrangement, dramatization, fictionalization, motion picture version, sound recording, art reproduction, abridgment, condensation, or any other form in which a work may be recast, transformed, or adapted.
A work consisting of editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications which, as a whole, represent an original work of authorship, is a “derivative work”.
This to apply to what cheat developers and cheaters are doing - cheat developers modifying the original work to create a new one and cheaters abuse it on the servers.
That is illegal and since cheaters don't have permission to create a derivative work (and don't seem to qualify for an exception like fair use), then cheaters is infringing the owner's exclusive right to do this.
Cheat developers and cheaters are therefore officially infringing the original game, the cheat developer for his reverse engineering and the cheater for abuse of the software which is capable of modifying a game while playing it. !
If you look at 18 U.S. Code § 2319, wich a judge would put a cheat developer or a cheater in a federal prison for, then you can see that it has been seen that some criminals has been sent to jail for over 10 years and not allowed to touch a Hardware that is hooked to the public internet again for the rest of their life !
The vast majority of available cheats just modify values in a computers memory. They do not do anything with the original game code or assets. Read my previous message.
If you use something like Cheat Engine, all you're doing is having it search for something in your system memory, then modify that value to something else. This is not copyright infringement in any way, shape or form. It probably breaks the EULA terms, but a EULA is not legally binding.
The only exceptions would be custom clients and modified files. Reverse-engineering a game and then distributing the modified client technically would be copyright infringement and companies already threaten those that do it with legal recourse (such as those hosting private servers). The only other way they would be in violation of copyright would be if there were cheats being sold and assets from the game were being used in promotional material for them (like a website for COD cheats that uses screenshots and logos from that game).
99% of cheats are just memory editors/injectors. These are not using or distributing any of the game code, or the assets, therefore not in violation of any sort of copyright law.
Fan art and Twitch streams are all derivative works but publishers encourage it.
Not all derivative works is illegal .. but creating cheats & cheating in games is illegal !
Without expanding into this too much, All modern ToS will not allow you to reverse engineer the software or abuse it on their servers or in their games when it hit multiple players and not just your own singleplayer game.
Not to speak about the prevalence of cheat routines developed by cheaters reduce the number of normal people willing to play the game, wich then damage the overall potential income ..
Many game cheat developers & cheaters have been made to pay large amounts of money in court to the original owners.
Putting aside the illegalities it is, then cheats are still unethical and ruin the game experience for hundreds of thousands of people who don't use cheats.
You're referring to a EULA, an End User License Agreement. As said, these are NOT legally binding, even if they use a lot of big words.
Again, as I already said, in cases where cheats are being made for profit and the creators are using copyrighted material for advertising their product, this DOES constitute copyright infringement. This is what people are taken to court for, not for creating cheats or using cheats.
If a "cheat" manipulates with the data sent between the clients through the server in a way that the ToS doesn't authorize you to do, then that will put you in the breach of the CFAA - and breaking this carries serious jail time penalties and huge fines.
Remember how companies started sueing cheat developers? Remember how those games still have cheaters? I remember. It surely is a good PR stunt but not very effective at stopping cheats from being shared and used.
How many cheaters do blizzard wow got ? ... 0 .. why ? .. because people who play wow is registered and if you cheat in wow you will get banned as a person and not just your account !
COD is another talk and i dont get why Blizzard dont force players that do firt person shooters aswell to register themself in the same way as when you play world of warcraft !
It will make things so much easyer ...
You can come with all your fancy cheats and hardware, it wont let you join Steam again if you are banned as a person !
And that is what Valve needs to stop recurring cheaters and cheat developers !
I did not .. i saw bots, but if thous gold farmers was automated then they would get banned, then we didnt see them, because the players was banned as a person in the end and sued for it !
And now Blizzard did the right thing, make it 10 x easyer to make gold .. so now there is no reason for buying gold when you can farm 30k gold in lesser than 10 hours yourself
How about give us cheats that dont cheat ? .. you know make it pointless for cheaters ?
So if a legit player get hit by a cheater, then that player will get godmode and able to instant kill the target in a huge bloody explosion or show mercy on him ..
That is something i would have done .. if it was my game .. you know to give the cheaters no reason to cheat, because i will just give my legit players GODmode then & force the cheaters to run it more blatant so my anticheat system was 100% more effective ;).. lmfao
Bungie did the right thing .. they reverse engineered a cheat developers program and used it against his cheaters to protect their own legit players
What they did was to make cheating pointless, because the more a cheater was blatant the more protected the legit players would be ..
