Rockstars New Hacker Solution – Could It Cause More Damage Than Good?

A recent article on Gamasutra included details on a new method Rockstar have been using to deal with cheaters playing Max Payne 3 online. Instead of smacking them round the face with a well deserved ban hammer, Rockstar have opted to deploy a new technique, hackers against hackers. Players that are discovered using any form of an illegal advantage, such as modded files or exploits, will be thrown to the dogs in a special server group known as “Cheaters Pool”. First time cheaters will be placed here until their case can be reviewed, but if they’re caught doing the dirty again, they’re cast aside like yesterdays paper and banned for good. Although this appears like great news, could it cause more damage than good?

Two wrongs don't make a right in this case, one esentric hacker will just come back with bigger guns and probably shut down rockstar.

I think if your caught Hacking an online game then a Predator Drone should blow your House up!

Why mess up our gaming experience cause you have NO SKILLS?

Less Aimbot, More Skills!

SirBradders4358d ago

No my friend march them outside and shoot them point blank in front of their family.

People who deliberatly try to ruin others experiences have no self esteem and ruin this planet.

Mythicninja4358d ago

I'm down for predator strikes against cheaters. Count me in!!!

sorceror1714358d ago

Short answer - no.

Long answer, even if it creates a "cheater's arms race", the cheaters can go play other cheaters, and people who play fair can have a mostly unspoiled experience. Yes there will be false positives, but FFS, there are false positives *now*. The choice isn't between "the cheaters's pool" and "perfection". The choice is between "the cheater's pool" and "banning".

hiredhelp4358d ago

Why cause more damage why because butt hurt hackers have to fight against eachother?
Hell i pay a ticket to watch that front row seats.

9thWonder4358d ago

I got 80% trophy completion on Ragnarok but left a few of the battles. Will come back to it one day.

Miraak82 324d ago

Dragon Quest 11 is my top pick

RpgSama324d ago

Dragon Quest XI was such an AMAZING game, I had a blast from the very beginning all the way to the very end, it actually got better the more you played, full of surprises as well.

Another game that I enjoyed from the very beginning all the way to the end of the 100% completion was Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Really, really, really fun game with a great heartfelt story.

badz149324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

Where is Horizon Zero Dawn?? where is Ghost of Tsushima?? I just got my Platinum on HZD and is now trying to finish the Frozen Wild expansion. so much care and love went into that game and it really shows. I especially adore the lore and have sunk many hours listening to the logs and reading journals. the back story is great and the gameplay is awesome. can't wait to replay on the hardest difficulty on NG+. next in my list would be to finish GoTsushima

Tacoboto324d ago

Ghost was fantastic especially after Iki Island and the PS5 upgrade. 100%'d that, Horizon Forbidden West (not ZD), GoW (not yet Ragnarok), Spider-Man, and R&C: Rift Apart.

Each one absolutely worth it.

Aloymetal324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

100% I would like to add to you list RDR2, amazing as well and the perks from getting the Legend Of The East outfit is awesome.
Sekiro as well, have to play twice to get it but it's worth it!

Demetrius324d ago

I agree I'm on my 2nd playthroughs of both horizon forbidden West(zero dawn I played also) ghost of Tsushima except I'm replaying it on PS5 this time, the iki island expansion is amazing

ClayRules2012324d ago

Yeah, GoT was already an AMAZING game on PS4, but playing it on PS5, along with that expansion, just even better.

Elda324d ago

I just started my copy of GOW:R, enjoying it so far.

DefenderOfDoom2324d ago (Edited 324d ago )

Okay the title of article should be top 10 , 3rd person games to complete 100 percent. Nine 3rd person games and 1 racing game on this list .
