Another World First Clear got disqualified due to "Cheating"

[AllenThyl]

Imagine thinking that looking up strategies and using 3rd party mods that do a significant part of the gameplay automatically or even interfere with the packages sent between client and server are even comparable. Pathetic.

While Pixel Perfect is not the most egregious tool , it simply stands that it opens the floodgates to all of them. We can't really tell how many mods they used. Also all of them are guilty by association so whatever GRIND sat their trying to throw their player under the bus, can pass me with that L. Most groups during WF are using at least ACT for parsing, but included in that can be cactbot and automarks so theirs that.

SE is at fault here as much as the players who seem to have the inability to scrub their screenshots before submitting proof.

Take a look at ultimates in PF, what do you see?

"I have it"
"Bring it"
"AM"
"Allagan Melons"

These people and those in World First race that get caught should be handed 6+ month bans on their accounts at least. Ban everyone that joins that party as well for 6+ months as they are guilty by association and benefit. Make it so that marks ALWAYS leave a message in chat so people can report. Do that, and this AM use stops almost immediately. If they are allowed to be as flagrant in PF, why would people respect the World First Race?

While I agree about abiding by the ToS, this would kill the game. No, not because you remove AM, but because if they did that, they would need to do the same thing with the moon. And that population of players is massive. Your solution is also incredibly dangerous as someone could join a party that doesn't advertise "allegan melon", but then someone turns it on and uses it anyway. Boom, you're banned just because you joined an innocent party.

Imagine after years of playing the hardest of hardest content, still not intuitively knowing where your hitpixel is. Pathetic.

Says the Lalafell that is exactly 1 pixel on the screen...

I hope they still do level80 mainstory ultimate, it is what I am looking forward to.

just further proof that raiding is in mmo is laughable compared to wow lmao

[Shikiseki]

Well I actually feel bad about the devs putting into so much effort to release ultimates for that 1% raiding scene and at the same time be naive enough that THIS TIME they won't cheat.. RIGHT?

On the other hand it's absolutely hilarious that ppl cry about the game being too easy but at the same time use cheats like these to clear stuff ASAP

The only thing naive here is thinking ultimates are some generous and selfless gift by the devs to only a tiny minority at the expense of company resources just for the fun of it.

The game was doing fine before those people showed up, it'll survive without them.

Yeah I mean technically the game will probably survive with half its playerbase gone, most of its listening post advertising lost and an anti cheat that will probably make the client function even worse than it does now

It’s probably not gonna survive in a healthy state though

[Rin_Sato]

"We want harder content!!!"
- People cheating to make the content easier

If they need hacks to play the game, and don't want to play the game without hacks... I mean? Why cater to this demographic by allowing them to thrive at the expense of everyone else?
