Am I so stupid or the discussione about Arena and the hacker (today I meet only him and it is impossibile to win) have been removed? now he makes 1 million point avery 5 seconds….
Community ManagerHey u5n1dj5uliim , we're merging all the discussions into this megathread, otherwise the whole category would be a bit messy: Seeing Cheaters/Hackers in PvZ 2 - Arena (Sea-Shooter)
We're waiting for more info on our side but since it's the weekend we probably won't hear any news until Monday. Thanks for your patience, we know this isn't ideal for now
Hi. Considering that this issue has been "worked on" for five days, and apparently, posts are being closed or marked as solved, it seems like they're more interested in suppressing the problem than looking for solutions. The Arena session ends on Monday. Enough money will have been spent on gems and fists by then. A good profit for EA. Too bad for the user.
EA is pretty greedy but that's a terrible way of looking at the problem. Mostly because it's complete nonsense. Alienating longtime customers who are willing to buy their microtransactions is only going to cost them money in the long run. It cost them effectively nothing to add these things to people's accounts and they lose nothing by people having them. However if people don't feel safe or don't feel like they're getting anything out of purchasing the microtransactions they're going to stop.
I just played that account and it only scored 18k. At least there is a chance to win an arena match. Which I haven't been able to do since this started (kind of a bummer for several reasons)
So, maybe something was done?
yes, he went from over 650m to now making a consistent 18,000,000, which is beatable for some players, but if this is their "fix" it's a terrible one
The 'fix' isn't working anymore as the asylum[XX] account just got 1,600,000,000 against me...
It had been limited to 18m since yesterday, and then 10m earlier today. I've just lost by 1.58 billion points, so whatever has been applied is clearly not working!
This situation is very frustrating for me.
I just wanted to collect Seashooter seeds to level it up, but now it's no longer possible.
I can’t win any matches, and I always get matched with the same player.
At first, this player had 780 million points, and then it became a constant 18 million every time - something seems wrong here.
Also, I’ve lost my Arena Gauntlets and I don’t know how to get them back.
The event will end in 1 day - is there any way to fix this or recover my Gauntlets so I can continue?
Also, I have screenshots of the lost games if needed.
Agree with others that this problem emerged early well before the weekend! Incredibly disappointed with the response.
