Syndrix Posted November 7, 2001 Share Posted November 7, 2001 Actually uteboy's question is a very pertinent one, and one I would very much like a reply to. While the chances of that are slim, Raven need to take that into consideration if they havent already done so. With the MP section of the game sure to be one of the biggest draw cards of the game, the have to think about this. Cheating is becoming more and more prolific amongst online games of all genre's, not just FPS. The fun is quickly sucked out of a game when someone is cheating and Raven need to look at some way they can quickly patch exploited bugs and "blacklist" programs that allow people to cheat. I seriously hope Raven have something planned in the anti-cheating area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartolo_JCS Posted November 7, 2001 Share Posted November 7, 2001 Syndrix I do believe that the quake engine they are using limits the ability to cheat/hack to a minimum and you can choose to leave the game closed to set limitations. I'm not sure of the details about this maybe someone who plays quake III or elite force may know more about this. I do know that for the Half-Life engine there is a program called punkbuster www.punkbuster.com that prevents "punks" and also stops hex adress hax through the half-life engine.

Guest Kurgan Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 Having a "pure server" option on a dedicated server would probably do much to cut down on the use of cheats online... That and the dev team should be vigilant about patching any major security issues that are discovered. Kurgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acdcfanbill Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 i played the demo for RTCW, and disregaurding bug issues, and such, i just didnt find it had the same flair as Wolf3D, hopefully the SP finished product will be great... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenG Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 ^ that because Wolf3D didn't have multiplayer RTCW is gonna be different to Wolf3D. for starters you will be able to look up and down. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syndrix Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 While I'm sure the Q3 base that they are using will cut back on much of the cheating we have seen in the past, and the "pure server" option that Wilhuf is so fond of touting will indeed stop most mindless fools from cheating, there is always a few who find ways to circumvent even the most well tested game. I am not saying we will see the same as what we have in the past, just it would be nice to see some kind of forethought so if it does happen they are prepared.
