Can't they just fix their game to make the cheats stop working? I'm sure many of his customers would be mad at him for this.

- lvturner 8y agoEpic stop the cheats working, within 24hrs he has them working again. It’s a continual game of cat and mouse, and a kid over summer has way more disposable time than your average game developer. Eventually you can get to a stage where you make it too hard for some of the hacks to work - and then they just find another route. You can sometimes make a valid copyright claim if they are using your game logos in their advertising, but unless you have the budget of Epic it’s pretty hard to even get an effectual site or YouTube video/channel take down. Realistically a developer has little alternative than to attempt both code fixes and social ones - once a game has a reputation for being full of hackers it can quickly become the end of it (though again, probably less of a concern for Fortnite due to its scale and popularity)
