Why would anyone willingly give that info out? With the amount of breaches that happen it would only be a matter of time before players had their identities stolen. I’m not going to risk that just to play a game.
They do in Korea and everyone there doesn’t have their crap stolen.
It is the only proven way to effectively prevent cheating in video games. Many very smart people have spent god knows how many hours trying to stop cheaters for decades now. Nothing works. This is currently the only known way.
If you think breaches don’t happen in South Korea then I have ocean front property in Arizona to sell you. How the heck do you think people outside of SK play online games on Korean servers? They buy KSSN from shady people.
i nvr read so much BS in my life

What is your point? There are not many bots on the Korean server. This is a fact. the KSSN system is stopping the bots.
A system like Korean SSN would not work in other regions, due to how privacy and other applicable laws work from country to country. Sad reality, it will never happen here.
It’s always going to an uphill battle, unless they do severe punishment against the whales that RMT (which I also doubt will ever happen)
lol. At least Nixon, he made a statement and he did something about it, but you look at AGS, they made a statement, but they didn’t do anything about it, so they just pretended to make a statement

This is from 2011 but I can guarantee this crap is still happening.
Should have seen the amount of people who disagrees with people simply because it is just a video game or you are entitled. EX: if you didnt pay for it, you dont get to complain about it like are you serious bro.
Sir, this is a Wendys

The reason it failed is the people on the inside were fighting on the side of drugs. It was corrupt at the top, but you get sold this story about how prohibition doesn’t work by the people who defeated prohibition in order to harm you. a Lost Ark analogy would be to suggest that AGS is compromised and cooperating with the botters to profit off of selling Smilegate’s currency that their deal was to remit.

Oh my god
The perfect thread for this
The stars aligned
Say it with me
Addiction is a hell of a drug
Or increase the amount of gold that can be earned by players in the game. that way players can be less reliant on RMT
Somewhat simple solution to this. AGS works with the RMTers and tax them. They sell the gold, AGS gets to control their access. Allow bot use only during off hours. Limit the amount of gold they can sell. That keeps inflation in check, we don’t have to see bots all day, and some poor people in third world countries can make some money. Win, win, win.
“Sir this is a football game why are some players kneeling? There’s a time and a place.”
That you?
Solution is to legalize drugs.
It is obvious that as long as it is so difficult to make gold coins and as long as p’s are needed to buy stuff, buyers and sellers will swarm like vermin on a carcass.
Don’t forget that too many people want everything right away, so this is a royal avenue for gold sellers and bot users.
Then there is the whole issue of upgrading stuff and stone size which has such a low probability rate that it too plagues the game and drives the desperate into the arms of bot sellers and the like.
In short, as you (and many other people) say, the economic system of the game needs to change, but…
And for those who will say “it’s a free game”, I answer you that you are absolutely wrong, but this is another debate!

I was with you until you started offering bad solutions that don’t help at all. In this picture you’re the big pharma trying to get your own goals fulfilled
It’s simple: Just add in an ID system to bottleneck the bot market to a degree where it’s a micro market that has no macro economical consequences leading to the destruction of the core gameplay aspects of the game. If this was here right from the beginning then we’d have a much healthier game with more players playing it. Now it’s too late, but better too late than never
