Best anti-cheat is to separate your cheaters from your general gamers, if some behavior is detected that indicates they are a cheater temporarily remove them from the same queue as normal players and treat all players they party or queue with the same. In this queue they only get paired against other questionable players. When they themselves or other in this cheater queue report a person enough times temporary ban the user from playing for one week, two weeks, four weeks. Depending on the strikes, but never perma ban.
- throwaway2037 4y agoI like this idea. Another way: The game company adds all the cheats themselves, as features. Then you can buy the "cheat pack" (more revenue). Each feature that you enable, appears next to your character name. Cheaters with same features enabled, are allowed to match each other online. Of course, then cheaters will try to write software to hide this status... but that is a different issue. :) After you owned a game for along time, sometimes it is fun to cheat. That is another revenue source for game companies.
- Sparkyte 4y agoWell people will do things they are not supposed to do, providing them an avenue to do so while not awknowledging this keeps games fair. If you ban outright then you know who's cheating.
- xeyownt 4y agoBest anti-cheat is the one that has never any false positive.
- Sparkyte 4y agoYou also don't want players knowing they are detected. Keeps things from getting complicated.
