when are console cheaters going to be dealt with?

[wide thicket]

Been banning since the first beta

[somber swallow]

No they haven't, same cheaters running rampant

Even YouTube channels dedicated to showing how nothing happens to them, entire wipes of using h@cks on console

[wide thicket]

Yeah they have

[wide thicket]

Hacking isn't possible on console

If you want to report someone use https://rustconsolesupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[humble remnant]

They most likely will never be banned. People will always find new ways to do it. Sad truth is its more than likely here to stay.

[wide thicket]

No your wrong been banning since the beta

[humble remnant]

Yes, I am well aware of that. But people can make alt accounts, since their 100% free. And ive only seen maybe 1 or even 2 people get banned out of hundreds of cheaters I have reported with the website

[wide thicket]

Then they get banned for ban evasion

[somber swallow]

Oh yeah? When? I'm on Chain J4 and almost every player there is using auto aim. They spin around super fast and instant 2 shot you in the face, never a miss. Analytics alone should tell the developers whose cheating, that's not even hard. Why are you trying to prove so hard cheaters are being dealt with when those of us here see how its almost every encounter? I have over a thousand hours in the game, I'm not new.

[wide thicket]

Did you report them on https://rustconsolesupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[somber swallow]

I report through the game. Why would the website work better than the in game reporting function?

[trail ore]

Both are good.
Doing both is better rather than just using in-game.

[somber swallow]

I've been reporting people for ages, nothing gets done to any of them. Cheating is literally a plague here, when are actual anti cheat methods going to be introduced?

[sterile torrent]

Are you sending in as much proof as possible, clips etc.

[sullen basin]

when microsoft and sony start to give a shit 👍

there's a reason there's really no console game with a working anti cheat for the devices.

r6, cod, apex all plagued by the same issue.

[sonic glen]

R6 & Cod have recently started to implement anti cheats for external devices Fortnite too I can’t remember if I heard anything about apex but starting Nov 12th all third party devices are being blocked on XBOX hopefully Sony does the same

[devout plaza]

When reporting cheaters there has to be enough proof that they are cheating and not just a 8k hour chad roaming with M2 4x.

[devout plaza]

Has D11 ever commented on what proof of cheating they need to make a viable decision?

[plucky prawn]

proof of admission or videos of them using the devices but dosent seem to do much

[floral matrix]

<@&809827848620605492> this needs to be closed

[sullen basin]

r6 has mousetrap ya, but it also barely works and has many workarounds. It's also built on years of data gathered by ubi

[floral matrix]

Enough of this. Hubble you know better

#6 - No cheating or hacking
Usage of 3rd party devices to gain an advantage in game is considered cheating and can result in a game ban. Therefore, please avoid any talk or promotion of such devices in our Discord server and if you find anyone using these 3rd party devices, please report them in-game.

#11 - Don't be dodgy
Avoid any dodgy behaviour as this can have consequences even when sent in DM’s to other server users. Examples of dodgy behaviour include posting malicious links, asking users to game-share/share-play, attempting to buy/sell in-game items for real money, promoting/discussing cheating, programs and resources or third-party devices. Others may apply so please don’t try to test the rules.

[sullen basin]

ya hopefully microsofts block to uncertified devices can stop it completely. But who really knows, i'm sure there will be some sort of workarounds
