Stopping cheating by simply tracking Stats?
So this game on PC has insane problem with cheating right now. And basically it can't be stopped because they can't detect the difference between player input to adjust for things like recoil/aim a...

@Metr🤭din If it was that simple they would be doing it. Simply put there is more to it. If you have a program that detects headshots, you then have someone get lucky and land a bunch of headshots, they get wrongfully banned. Now the TOS team has to deal with reviewing that persons account and unban them.
Some of the very high skill players aim for nothing but headshots. They are extremely good at as well. I've bumped into top 100 preds in matches, they land a ton of headshots, it's really insane. Some of them I have heard of and I can tell you they do not cheat. They just have really good aim, really good recoil control and are really good at the game. If they did not have the top 100 pred badges I would assume they were cheaters at the death report. But when I spectate them it's clear they are high skill players. Their movement, their play, the way they rotate, everything is top notch.
@DarthValtrex You wouldnt ban someone for a few lucky shots. You would look at an overall trend and look for the blatant ones first. As your algorithm improves maybe you can figure out the soft cheaters. The one who dont only do 90% headshots but maybe their cheat makes a pattern to try and throw the automated anticheat off.
I could see doing this and we dont know if they are or are not at least trying to now. I'm pretty sure it isnt just one guy or a few people reviewed videos to ban people though.

- @hayhor I think if it were up to me and I was trying to write the system. I would focus on AI that documents the software instead of the individual player.
Recoil patterns, TTK, just about every point of data I could come up with. Have the AI analyze the data and look for patterns that we can't see/comprehend. Now have the AI create definitions based on those patterns and so on. I think that is what they already do.. The issue is they find a way to detect said cheat, it becomes useless, people who make the cheat update their cheat to get around the detection method. Thus it's a constant battle for gaming companies.
I think it sort of depends on the type of cheat being used though. Detecting wallhacks is much different than detecting aimbot.Respawn is not INTERESTED to counteract cheaters phenomenon, they have only one goal, take money from cosmetics, if you see there only one thing work very very good and are credit card transiction! the rest is nothing, players continue complaining but they play the same and this push company to not waste time to solve, bug, glitch, cheat and another kind of problem....as long as they have players continue play and complaing but not stop play the company live and not take action....this is my point of view...
- @lnxtvv Why do you even hang out here? You do nothing but talk ill about the company. You offer nothing constructive to answer questions or help with solutions. Why stay on these forums dogging a game you hate but still play and still stick around for? People need to stop being 2 sided. Either leave the game or support the game. Yes it has issues just as every single game on the market does.
