Re: Unable to report hackers in-game PvZ 2

I am just curious Lilman, what is it that makes you think someone is hacking (Yes, I know the obvious when illegal plants are brought in)...

    For the illegal plants it could be that sometimes EA bot used a replay of a previous week so there is a wrong plant in the first spot, couldn't it ?
    Else you also have players having a huge score but without any sun producing plants.
    It could be a good idea to add a button "report a potential fraud" .
    Then you would have the choice between "Opponent has not the weekly plant in his team", "Opponent has a huge score without having any sun producing plants in his team", "other, describe below"

    This weeks plant of the week is the Holly Barrier and is the plant in each players top left corner and instead of the Holly Barrier they had Gold Bloom and even though I won I don’t want other players to encounter this.

    Well, then it would be Aloe showing 🙂

    I'm sure there is a pool of EXTRA replays in a database somewhere that are pulled at the start of every near tournament. There actually has to be, since you are always playing against an old re-cording. But on the very first opening, there is no previous match yet to rank against.

    Lil... after looking, I find it rather doubtful that a 'hacker' would bring in a level-1 plant for his premium slot. If he can do that (just to cheat and win), surely he would have brought in something much more stronger? How many hackers do you know would stick with plants so lowly leveled?

    I am suspect this is from an earlier Battlez where Gold Bloom was the requirement.

    Now, if someone can prove that no Battlez was ever used with Gold Bloom as the plant of the week, then things get more interesting here :P

    it is really odd that they still have replays of it...

    If that's the case, then it's also very odd it's taken them centuries to fix simple glitches like the acheivements that won't work/unlock correctly.

    You know what doesn't take forever to get fixed? Those bugs/glitches that cause a player to bypass having to pay $/Gems for things, such as the exploit in the Zen Garden that was patched. Yup, that already got fixed.

    But something like this, where there is no incentive for $ by EA, you honestly think they have an update of the database on their priority list? lol
