Blatant cheating in BG and discussion of the consequences

ArmoredGhostArmoredGhost Member Posts: 209 ★★★
This is just terrible. I spend resources and time climbing the ladder of GC only to be knocked back down by blatant cheating. There is no way their r1 unawakened white tiger beat my r2 void in this gc meta, in 20 seconds, with a class disadvantage, and only 25 hits with the max hit being only 4,576.

But now due to the way BG works I lose out on the points I would have gotten if this person played fair. I also now lose 14 of the points I already had. Additionally, I would need to win 2 more matches to get back to where I was which incurs the risk of going down even further.

I was genuinely planning to stop after this fight because it would have put me in Arcane 3 or at the very least gamma 1. And now I may have lost the resources I would have gotten if I stayed where I was.

Sure Kabam can just ban this player but we as players won't be getting compensation for things like this.





Can't I at least get my points back?

    Tbh BG grind is just not worth it anymore, rewards are hot garbage when compared to effort.

    Last BG season, idk who it was? Msd or someone but he got placed in celestial but couldn't open a single 7* crystal from rewards, like what?

    Like seriously, tf are these celestial BG rewards?
    Look at last 2 rows, wow, Kabam?
    Relic rewards are not REWARDS !!!

    Something which you abandoned from 2 years can not be considered as rewards.

    And let's just imagine relic rewards are ok, but other than 4k 6* relic shards, I don't even know what are those other 5 things? Like what? It's just slap in the face 🖐️😓🫲




    (Well deserved slap in the face moment 🤣)

    This also isn't the first or even 10th time this has happened to me. I always came from a place of understanding where it is difficult for a company to deal with cheaters. I'm finally fed up with it Kabam really needs to do something to get rid of these cheaters and if they can't players shouldn't be punished and should get compensation if it can be proven they lost to a cheater.

    It looks like cheating, but..



    sure but I also made sure to discuss the other problems that come from another player cheating and that fair players should be compensated

    please don't turn this into a rewards issue. I would want this post to remain a cheater/compensation discussion

    Just trophy tokens holds some value, and only for the mid and lower players who can hoard em till the store update. Not much value for the top players atm, as they will hit cap and have to spend them anyway.
    People are waiting for store update, So holding onto trophy tokens is advised.

    As soon as the shards and catalysts rewards get updated. The flux of players will be back fighting for top rewards. Not me tho. I'm done with the pushy push grind.

    It's pretty chill atm for eveyeone, only the usual grinders are grinding, but they grind anyway.

    Stopped caring about rank rewards for many months. Played for 2 hours today, (first time I played a single game outside objectives) surprisingly hit Q1 and its enough. I don't even push anymore, and there are plenty like me who have stopped pushing higher.

    yes but that's only part 1 of the equation. What about the energy and elder's marks spent and wasted? what about the lost points in the leaderboard and even just getting less points in the solo/alliance events?

    Firstly, you posted the name of the player, which is not allowed in here.
    Secondly, forums are not the platform to report cheating.

    The only way to report is via in-game button and via support ticket.


    This post is just a random discussion at this point.
    So whats for dinner? I'm having roti sabzi.

    Kabam has always been super slow to ban, not just in battlegrounds but also with the abyss. The amount of small accounts with abyss collector profile pics was absurd 2 yrs ago. Seemed like they completely abandoned any cheating checks back then.

    sorry, I didn't know you can't post pics with profile names. next time I'll blur the name or draw over it. I did report the player with the report button in the game. But the discussion still stands and i was using this as an example

    We get these posts everyday.
    Not ignoring your post or calling it a waste either. But we see these threads frequently towards the end of each season.

    What I do appreciate is how effectively support bans them. The team cannot ban players on a whim or from a forum post. They have to check and confirm and only then the ban happens, which takes some time.

    Cheaters gonna cheat. Sad but true.
    And all we can do is hope that the team will take appropriate action against the the cheaters.
