Hey
The score when I had played all my turns in VSA was 13:9 but after the match was over it displayed 12:11. What can be the reason that my no of goals dropped 1 and my opponent's goals increased +1 considering he scored a goal on his last turn.
That's right, this game has a lot of cheaters or even bugs in the game itself that cause the game to crash, but somehow they've never been fixed. The developer is greedy.
I’ve had this happen as well (same exact score glitch where between the end of time and the posting of the final score I lost a goal and my opponent gained one). I reported it as suspected cheating, but, of course, we never find out whether it was or wasn’t . It hasn’t occurred again for me, but it’s certainly concerning that it’s happening to someone else.
I understand that as a general rule EA doesn’t “name and shame,” but I think the community needs a feedback loop that enables us to know (a) when an issue like the above is an instance of cheating vs a glitch in the game; and (b) if it is an instance of cheating, that action is being taken. The flaw in the system right now is that there is no reason for the community to have confidence that justice is being done and that EA is zealously protecting the integrity of the game. Too many of us see instances of suspected cheating on a nearly daily basis and we are able to witness ZERO instances of justice being done (because whatever action EA is taking is done behind the scenes). While I understand EA isn’t interested in carrying out public “executions,” the relative secrecy of the current system does not breed confidence within the community and, when users sense that rules aren’t being enforced they are that much more likely to throw up their hands in frustration or decide to cheat as well.
There is a reason that well-functioning legal systems the world over operate in “sunlight.” As a citizen I am allowed to walk into almost any court room in America and watch the legal system at work. This transparency might seem onerous or inconvenient to those operating the justice system, but it generally breeds buy-in and confidence from those governed by it (because, whatever its failings, we can see for ourselves how justice is being administered). We get no such view into the FCM “justice system” and this means we have no real basis for believing that justice is being done (beyond merely taking EA’s word for it). Providing even a modest level of transparency into the system (e.g., how many instances of cheating were confirmed last month and how many accounts were suspended?) would go a long way toward earning the community’s confidence on this issue.
What's a counterattack goal in VSA?
