Anyone Still Use MLGA?

Devs say they won't ban for you using it, but if EAC bans you for it, they won't help you.
Though that won't matter cause EAC themselves said they won't ban for it either.

That doesn't mean it won't be bannable in the future though.
You can use it, but i'd keep an eye on EAC to see if they announce one day that it's bannable.

I myself never once used it.
It was an unnecessary feature and most just used it to avoid certain people.
No one talked about it cause everyone would assume you use it for that exact purpose.
"I just use it for the ping."
"Mm hmm, sure you do."

Interesting. Do you happen to know if EAC does suspensions for first timers or do they go straight for the bans?

I can't tell you with confidence if warnings exist in EAC.
All i've seen in the past is instant bans & no bans.

I used it for ping until the devs added their own ping monitor.

I then dropped it as I didn't like the direction it was going in with it's stupid block system and other things they were attempting to put into place to allow you to see who your killer is.

The killer's identity is hidden by design and the devs have blocked every workaround we found for a reason. Circumventing it with 3rd party software is outright cheating in my book.

Does anyone still use MLGA? Does EAC allow it? I am just tired of getting tunneled and mori'd by the same toxic killers in the high ranks and I just want a program that can warn me ahead of time so I can dodge the lobby.

Pretty sure that "Peanut" mod fellow mentioned they won't actively hunt you down for this third party software but if it gets flagged and their system targets you they will not/can not stop your ban.

So yes its not tolerated but not a priority to hunt down.

What is MLGA?

It started out as a very useful tool to check the ping in a match before the devs added that feature into the base game. During that time, it was whitelisted by the devs.

It quickly devolved into a method of blocking players and learning the identity of killers before the match started. It was then un-whitelisted.

Ironic because killers can already do this by default. As if being able to check survivor steam profiles adds anything positive to the game.

That´s no the same, and you know it.
MLGA put killers on a black list, for playing as Freddy and other bullshit reasons.

What's stopping killers from manually leaving games with survivors for bullshit reasons?

You have not learned anything from the past, have you?
Survivors shared the MLGA lists where killers names were black listed because they played Freddy, used NOED, killer had skill or any other ridiculous excuse. Then those very people spend their time dodging killers. Which led to extreme lobby queues for both sides. This was only caused by survivors dodging. Not by killers dodging. You want to be able to see killers before the match. What makes you think that this time it would be any different?

Survivors got WGLF nerfed, because they hook farmed their teammates.
Survivors prevented the introduction of camp save hooks, by abusing the mechanic.
Yet you behave like that was the work of the killers.

I guarantee you, if survivors can see the name of the killer, the lobby queue times will skyrocket again, because people just don´t know how to behave.

So instead of both sides dodging, we now only have one side dodging. You're telling that the worst case scenario is worse than a bad scenario.

Why is it that one side is still able to dodge with no regard?

It makes no sense to me that 20% of players are allowed to police the behavior of 80%. The same exact argument applies except to a smaller scale.

20% has some degree of power over the 80%.
Sounds like civilization to me.

games dont give “warnings” for being caught using 3rd party software.

you clearly want to cheat and thats embarrassing.

thread reported for discussion of specific cheating software

I want to use it to give me a heads up on toxic killers. I'm not looking for a competitive edge against killers. I simply don't want to play in a game where I get tunneled/face camped and mori'd.

So playing the game as intended is toxic for you? Yikes

There are killers that dodge because there are too many toolboxes or flashlights, prestige survivors, survivors with too many playtime, etc., etc.

I will say this again and again, Killers can already arbitrarily decide what is toxic or unfavorable to play against, without penalty as it is. Whatever complaints or grievances you have against survivors using MLGA to cherry pick killers can be applied to killers being able to cherry pick lobbies by design.

Every player has a right not to play with toxic people. SURVIVORS included. Killers have been spoiled rotten by abusing that exclusive privilege.

Doesnt change the fact that MLGA is not accepted by the devs anymore

Because they're hypocrites, I know.

I'm sure they do, I assume that's what people mean when they say "blocked killer" after a match.
I don't really care as long as there's no "community" blacklists people share around (I don't know if there is). If it was effectively blocked people could just use regular network monitoring software and a .txt file full of IPs to do the same thing if they really wanted to. And considering people sat there and repeatedly rejoined lobbies to get with their friends prior to the introduction of SWF I'm sure people would be willing to do it.
