Can Kabam see the actual fights? (AKA - The Solution to Cheating)

While playing BG today I realized something.

If Kabam can record and go back and review the video clip of each actual fights - they can review whether a fight was fought properly or was modded.

That surely should put an end to 5 second fights and/or questionable & impossible fights - right?

Unless they can't actually see the fights.

Then we've got a problem.

From what I understand the fights happen on our devices and the data from it gets sent back to them which is why you can keep playing when there is a connection issue just to lose the fight at the end when it tries to connect back and has an issue. If it was sending the video from every fight we did the data usage for our cellular or Wi-Fi internet would be very large and I doubt they are paying to store video of every fight every player does in the game.

I’m sure they never thought of reviewing fight data. Good catch.

Not just the fight data, the clip of the actual fights.

But can't they simply 'recreate' the actual fights from the fight information? Surely that can be done.

Are you telling me that Kabam as a company that makes fighting games - can't actually see any of the fights that we do on the platform daily?

If that's the case we've got a problem.

We've got a BIG BIG BIG problem.

No, that's not a problem at all. Not sure why you would think it is.

What do you think the difference to a fight recording and looking at the Data is? We can determine everything we need from either, but reviewing a recording takes A LOT more time than looking at Data. With the number of reports we get, it is not humanly possible for each individual fight to be reviewed that way. It's a problem of scale.
