question on bot detection. I play obsessively

how does kabam know for a fact that someone's been using a bot? I hope they have for sure methods of detection. I play the game compulsively from when I wake up til I go to sleep, the game is always on. I'm worried my addiction and insane gameplay hours I put in might be a red light...? like "no one could possibly be playing this much" is that possible or am I just paranoid? I spend (sadly) a lot of money on the game which I'm assuming would also show that its a person on the account playing.

    Bots don't make mistakes. They also don't sleep. Lol. Hope that eases your conscience.

    I don't think game time is a problem here, people are trying to use smart ways to move up , using short cut methods to beat some tough quests , if u are not doing any of this ... you don't have to worry , yes your game account can be traced and they know when you login on a new device.

    The game reports all kinds of data back to the server and there is a good post on Reddit about it. If your account passed through a device that is modded or otherwise noted as compromised you likely will get banned.

    About different devices, I play on an samsung s7 edge and I'm thinking of going iPhone in a few months when I get a new phone. If I log in through goggleplay can I still switch to an iPhone? Sorry if this is a dumb question.

    I have logged on with my android phone and my iPhone without any issue. I have also used gift cards for both google play and iTunes Store on the respective devices without any issues. It looks like as long as you don't mod you didn't get banned.

    Just make sure your Account is registered to Kabam, and you can sign on through the App on your iPhone. You'll be fine.

    I wonder if they are simply banning the accounts that have classic ultron but clearly do not have the rosters to beat LOL.

    Nope, there were people posting on other chats about people who used bots for arena too. Anyone that used a mod or any account that was tied to a device that used a mod seems to have gotten banned. And rightfully so.
