All this comments only result in one sentence: Hetzers gonna Hetz.

I still don’t get why Westerners whine a lot.

I think you guys are missing the basics here. The EULA (as stated in an article here a ways back) allows WG to scan your PC for whatever they like. Games like Rift for example, would scan Exe Process Names, Window Titles and even Files. So to be this ignorant and just assume there is nothing they can do it just annoying to me. That article stated that WG only uses this feature if they get a nigh number of reports on a specific user. There is nothing stopping them from checking everyone.

Now the point… I have none. Either WG doesn’t want to scan or maybe they will scan and these asshats are going to get banned. Maybe the loss of revenue stops them from banning 20% of the player base that is running shit like hitskins or the treedown minimap type mods… No one can be 100% sure about this. What I am sure of is how easy it would be for them to see what mods you are running at any point in time.

15 years ago good old Counterstrike Punkbuster simply took occasional screenshots of your gameplay to identify aimbots, wallhacks and stuff. So don’t tell me there’s nothing you can do …

Nobody knows they are cheating. When searching for the mod, they google Illegal wot mods for which I don’t know they are illegal. And they are off the hook.

Anywaaaayz… Who cares. It’s not that big of advantage. Slight yes, but RNG is the the most badass factor here. He can have all the cheats, but it won’t help if his team is full of noobs and he gets raped in first 3 minutes of the game alongside with his team.

So hail to the RNG for saving us!

I’m not sure if that bush mod would actually be a help or a hurt to overall play?

Silently release it without anyone to know about it…. and watch the ACLU, EFF, and others like them go after WG so hard that they may just withdraw from the NA market entirely because it’s not worth the legal fees to retain ~5% of their playerbase. Others have tried rootkits and trojans like that, and it’s never ended well.

As for slipping the right to install such malware into the EULA, WG will have to prove that their checks are limited to ONLY the WoT folder, and that will likely be more hassle than it’s worth. WG better not get caught either.

If you dont like it, then find another game, it’s going to happen, like ALL moddable MMO’s (or RPG’s, or MOG’s)

What about the big scandal in Asia Server during campaign 3? Cheating is also involved.

punkbuster is terrible for anti-cheating, in battlefieldpay4free, most of the time you’ll get kicked from servers while not using any mods, cheats etc
