    People are finally noting that there are console cheaters/ hackers. There are still people downplaying the issue but I truly enlightened myself after not only witnessing it on PSN, but watching actual videos of how people do it and are remaining undetected. I used Gameshark regularly when I was growing up until I realized that games are much more fun without cheat devices. There are so many devices that people can attach to their Playstation Console and it will pretty much ensure an advantage even for online games.

    Yep - the last ban wave of cheaters / hackers was just for fun and not because they car - you're absolutely right! /s

    Edit: Added the /s

    They do ban cheaters, you just have to follow their arcane, impractical, and unrealistically complicated reporting system!

    Cheating is not allowed. However, they ban in waves and the reporting process is ridiculous, as not everyone records their games.

    That said - name me one major multiplayer game without cheating that isn't entirely serverside. Cheating has become so lucrative and the obfuscation methods so sophisticated that not even expensive, proprietary anti-cheats stop it.

    well if it is not allowed, why are there cheaters in the game? can someone from the developers explain themselves why cheating is allowed in the game?

    or mayber they are using "CHEATING" to make a bad publicity. besides, its what helps them make money, with cheaters.

    more cheaters, more content, more fun.

    bad publicity is still publicity. who cares if theres cheaters,

    like other players said above, "there will always be cheaters", so why ban them?

    the reporting system is alreday complicated enough for them to still check on them

    i bet it takes them many months to check on your ticket, then declare "not cheater at all"

    do we still expect soemthing from developers?

    nah. there are more hackers right now. you just dont notice it.

    and with your statement, you just said there are STILL hackers. less hackers, still has hackers.

    not even the community manager can say anything. because the DEVS doesnt care about cheaters.

    so thats it players. :) good luck to your games full of subtle cheaters. :)

    They explicitly stated that they will NOT expose the punishments taken on the cheaters. Few times I tried to report, I have to bookmark the cheater's steam profile page to see if he has that ban mark added.

    Anyway this is a game where you're supposed to record, screenshot and submit all the details they want to an official report page which you're not taught from within the game at all in order to finish a successful report.
