What’s wild, is they released a lengthy post on their anti-cheat this month. At one point they mention that current vanguard has been bypassed/defeated…a bunch of lazy clowns.
It also shows LoL’s old anti-cheat, you’d get cheaters/scripters/bots anywhere from 1 in 15 games, to 1 in 5, depending on your region. The higher your rank, the more you’d run into cheaters, too, by a lot. Riot games is just a cesspool of free 2 play trash that breeds the most toxic of people.
In a YouTube video I watched last year, a group came up with an extremely good A.I. powered anti-cheat. The kicker is this, they couldn’t sell it to a single major studio, because said studios implied that their player count would suffer way too much.
None of these studio’s give a single fuck about competitive integrity. Just stfu, keep playing 100s of matches in an obviously broken rank/match making system to slightly rank up, and give us $.
Not the video you talked about , but I felt like its related to your last paragraph : How League of Legends Uses Abuse to Keep You Playing | That Jess . While she focuses more on other pieces of moderation than anticheat , she shows how LoLs developers are incentivized to not give a fuck and that they do , in fact , not give a fuck .
You might also find The CS2 Cheater Problem Has Gotten Goofy | TheWarOwl , which talks about Valve’s failures to provide integrity , even despite , though he also says its a symptom of these failures , third party anticheat systems .
I’ll also add that AI anticheat is not a silver bullet , it also requires upkeep which can be more expensive than classical anticheat systems .
The toxicity is awful. I tried to learn once since I had a buddy that loved the game and I was looking for a game to dump some hours in. This was about 10 years ago or so. My buddy told me he would help teach me the game so I could at least understand what people were saying. It took him one game to start trashing my playing. I fucked off of that game and never played again.
I do not understand how anyone continues to stay in a toxic fanbase even if they really love the game.
