Major issue with pve cheaters (ps4) | Forums

[Mr_nastytime16]

Give me a ****ing option to kick the three people rubber banding their ****ing controller! How ****ing hard is that. I didn't spend my hard earned money so some ****ing idiot can cheat me out of my time and money!

Theres an exploit in PvE where players would leave their consoles on in any PvE mode while away to get free EXP and Steel. Trick is to have some kind of tool to avoid your character from staying idle. So when players that do play PvE and encounter this, they would lose the match frequently because of lack of players that are actually playing. So if you were to go to sleep and take advatange of that exploit, youll wake up in the morning with your character leveled and more steel. I'm planning in doing that myself since this game is heavily based on the fact that the more steel you have, the better are your chances in winning. I've seen today the diffference between a gear level 44 and geared leveled 78. Its really unfair. This game really is about pay-to-win.

Brought this up a few days ago and I got bashed in these forums for reporting FAKE NEWS!!!!! Funny that its spreading like wildfire now. But its FAKE right? lmao.

I see three major issues with this:

1) These players are getting advantage over other players, by acquiring steel, XP and gear by not doing anything.
2) These players are ruining matches of other players, since they are just running in circles and not playing the match at all.
3) Ubisoft is not taking any action nor statement and it seems like Ubisoft allows players to use this exploit.

And if there is no temp BAN + whole progress WIPE for these cheaters, then Ubisoft is the one not having honor at all. Ubisoft, are you blind? There are players ruining this game, getting gear advantage over others by using exploit and you are NOT DOING ANYTHING AT ALL. This is really disappointment for me and other players who are willing to play this game fair.

Can't it be done without matchmaking? If someone really needs to do this exploit can't they just remove matchmaking and let other players actually play?

It is same like saying "Let anyone generate as many steel and XP as he wishes, just not in our game. He can join our gane later". It can not work like this, because those players then bring exploited gear into your game.

I guess only through duels? But the reward is much less. Even losing against 4v4 AI gives more exp than a winning duel.

Yeh I guess it's too much to ask these exploiters to think of other people. It requires too much skill in being a decent human being.

You can do "You and 3 AI vs 4 AI" by turning off the matchmaking, but not sure how it works as in does it automatically start the next game without pressing any buttons or does it actually require other human players.

I don't think other people even come into their equation. It is just a case of "I can get rewards while I work / sleep" Just human greed man.

I've reported two, havent seen it as a common issue yet.

Well after looking over the terms of service I don't see anywhere that its mentioned that you are not allowed to put a rubber band around your controller and play only in AI matches. Maybe this will be updated in the terms of service down the road but for now its well legal.
