Lost Ark's Fake Player Numbers - Bans 1 MILLION+ Bot Accounts - Amazon's Queue Problems Solved?

Показать описание

Lost Ark was at the top of the Steam Player Charts for a long time, but how many of those were bots? Amazon bans 1 MILLION + bot accounts to clear servers and queues, but is it enough and can they stop a wave of new accounts being created?

It wouldn't surprise me if Amazon was behind the bot accounts to drum up more hype for their game.

I installed it on steam today and logged in. 90% of the player characters I saw were bots. Loads and loads of berserkers, running together in groups of 3 to 5.

1:30 - 1:50 Or the bots have instantly made new accounts - which seems more likely the case. Spend ANY Amount of time in lower level zones and you won't see any actual players. 98 out of every 100 character you see is a bot in these zones mass leveling up to access the area chat.

Watching bots run past me every other second. Some speed hacks, some teleports, some run trough walls and they are all a problem. They could randomize the spawn points more, they could have restrictions to demographics, they could make it more difficult to create the character itself and I am sure there are a lot of other options as well. Coming from New World I sure hope this isn't another Amazon blunder.

If anyone from Smilegate just walks through the leveling areas they would see how bad it really is. The worst part to me is that the entire playerbase has to suffer from the MAJOR performance impact of Easy Anti-Cheat, while the bots are teleporting around all day. So real players get stutters, lag, slow load times, queues, etc.

The older you get the more you realize, bots and hackers are banes of the universe.

I had to turn off area chat because of all the RMT spam messages. I hope they get rid of all of them. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I did hear from streamers before the game came out that this was going to be issue because it was an issue in Korea. Eventually they were able to remove them after a while.

Elden ring isn't a single player live game simply having a summon me a s you can be invaded.

What grinds my gears is the fact that we get easy anticheat in elden ring, which is essentially a single player gamer, while a multitrillion company cannot get a similar if not better method of detecting bots and immediately ban them. Makes you think.

Why is everyone always blaming the developers for not making infinite scalable game servers? It seems like no one has a fucking clue how impossible that is, you cannot have infinite scaling, it's mathematically and physically impossible, it breaks the rules of everything we know.
"But just have at least X amount of Y"-scaling, still not possible because you have to know beforehand how much you need to support when creating the architecture. And I don't know anyone who can see into the future, so why would Smilegate?

The game has been out for several years, you can't just rewrite the architecture because "maybe we will have to support 1+ million players at some point"

As for detecting bots... It's **REALLY** hard. It's not "write some code that detects bots", you have to analyse every player and every players running game. And for every player there has to be some communication to servers so that you cannot circumvent detection. This is stupidly hard in a MMO where the amount of players is this high. I wish it was easy, if it was, there would be no bots today.

So please, stop blaming and spewing out "solutions" when you clearly have no idea how what you are talking about.

I dunno, I suspect that Amazon may have seen the number of concurrent players and the records they were breaking, looked back at the bots, then simply looked the other way.
