Ai bots in ultimate raids.Pvp cheating. Crafting bots.

In my opinion. Bots, cheating and other unfair things make the game shallow. Maby add anti-cheat? I know this is an unpopular opinion but i wanted to adress this problem again.

Sadly anti-cheat will not stop bots and cheaters at all when once the cheater or bot gets banned, they just come back and continue playing the game with cheats and/or bots.

Just look at any popular FPS multiplayer game, many of them have kernel level anti-cheat and they still have cheating problem.

That's not entirely true, at least for Riot Games which certainly set the standard for anti-cheat. They can now detect cheating solutions which required purchasing additional hardware that cost several thousand US dollars. There are other anti-cheat solutions which are reasonably effective as well. Will you eliminate all cheating? Probably not but you can set the bar high enough to deter most players from attempting, especially if you make Secure Boot, TPM 2.0, HVCI, and VBS requirements to play the game. Battlefield 6, for example, is doing this on release in October.

If you want a nice read from someone that works on Riot Vanguard team: https://x.com/ItsGamerDoc/status/1958935350916915647

Square Enix have made the mistake of moderating FFXIV as a high trust society. The player base has routinely abused that (mis)placed trust and there should be a course correction.

lol no way this is gonna happen in the near future, too many players would be suddenly unable to play the game due to having older PCs that don't support one or more of those things.

They're never going to add anti cheat to the game because the role players who use mods are way too much of their revenue.

PvP I agree with, since they directly affect you. Cheating to get weapons and stuff ... yeah, it sucks, but the bigger problem is people boosting others through boosting services.

Also, have you completed these ultimate raids yet? You can feel fulfilled for yourself regardless, especially if you record it without using auto markers.

.

Yes i have cleared 2 of them. Problem is when im doing it in pf, most people want to use auto markers. Yeah i can record myself clearing it but i heard there are cheats that cant be seen on stream. Still a valid point of self fulfillment.

Then report it? I get why people want to use certain types of assistance in those fights; but at the same time if you believe cheats that give an advantage are "unfair or shallow" and you know someone is (possibly) using them, reporting is a valid action to take. It won't stop cheats entirely but turning a blind eye also does nothing either.

All cheating should be banned regardless.

pvp cheats? is there evidence?

people blame pvp opponents for being cheaters as long as i can think of in pretty much every pvp mode of every game even if theres nothing cheatlike about them
