KEzAx -> Botters (1/7/2013 6:20:26)

You know how when you fight 1v1's and you meet a botter, and all the npc's will can be challenged as much as you want,
most likely the botters will farm the npc's while their sleeping and the suggestion is
bring the battle capcha back but instead of a capcha like K31n7 make it simple with 3 numbers 462 ??



Remorse -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 6:25:04)

Putting on NPCs would probably just annoy people especially since NPCs dont count for wins anyway.

But perhaps bring it back to normal pvp.


Though I dont think I have come across any bots.



KEzAx -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 6:27:38)

if they make a successful build they would e making a ton of credits and that's not fair for the players who play fair



Remorse -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 6:34:16)

^ That is true,


But Im guessing the reason they removed it was because, the amount of annoyance to the bulk of players outweighed the benefits.


Its not much of a benefit to stop people getting a lot of credits if they aren't getting wins then to have annoying battle captures annoying bulk of the players.


Though I suppose if it comes a major issue then I support.
As-long as it is made less annoying.



LatinLover/Martini -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 9:39:59)

Pretty sure they made it impossible to bot anymore. But hey, theres always a way to get in. Ask technoboss



Mother1 -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 10:29:07)

@ martini

I run into bots a lot. Most of them are those fill up stat points on one stat while having them do strike. Even though they are free wins, it is annoying to see them in the game. I support this suggestion since Bots are annoying and need to be dealt with.



Stabilis -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 11:35:24)

I would simply temporarily ban a player that clicks Strike for the entire battle with the following conditions:

•has a Sidearm and/or Auxiliary equipped

•has at least 1 usable skill (requirements and energy costs met)

•a skipped turn counts as Strike

This covers skipping bots and Strike bots at the same time. You should not detect chat because you can easily program a bot to type random chat. You should not detect time intervals because a bot can be programmed to delay actions making it appear more human.

Oh, also temporarily ban a player for being online for more than 25 hours at a time. Because of daily competitions, players may be online for the entire day, after competitions they may sleep, but bots do not sleep. You can program a bot to log off and in... but it would be random and appear human. So, a 25+ hour session.



Drianx -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 12:18:35)

Simple way to deal with botters.

Do not reward ANYTHING for a loss. Not credits, experience, nothing.



Mother1 -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 12:27:02)

@ drianx

That would also hurt actual losing players as well. In omega they will do that with the NPC but in actual PVP battle there are those who play well but lose to either a better build or a luck factor. Those player would hurt because of this.



Drianx -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 12:38:30)

@mother1

OK, then losses should stop rewarding anything after level 30. This won't hurt newbies but on the other hand losses would not be abused any longer.



Baydraze -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 12:41:29)

I see a few botters all the time and I dont like how they get like 30% of the win because with so much enhancements low levels would mostly lose against them so that they get free credits or free items.



Remorse -> RE: Botters (1/7/2013 14:36:58)

^ If enhancements are the problem then it would be solved in omega.


They will probably lose too much without enhancements.
