Do you really think this guy is lying about it?

I’m not sure if accusing someone of lying about cancer is worse than lying about having cancer, but c’mon
Farming Sim has an esports scene!
Vizor explained that Ricochet uses a list of hardcoded strings of text to detect cheaters and that they then exploited this to ban innocent players by simply sending one of these strings via an in-game whisper. To test the exploit the day they found it, they sent an in-game message containing one of these strings to themselves and promptly got banned.
Vizor elaborates, “I realized that Ricochet anti-cheat was likely scanning players’ devices for strings to determine who was a cheater or not. This is fairly normal to do but scanning this much memory space with just an ASCII string and banning off of that is extremely prone to false positives.”
This is insane, they had an automatic script to connect to games and ban random people on loop so they could do it while away
I played in most of the betas and didn’t have these problems. It’s obvious from the footage that they’re just not very skilled at the game, maybe if they tried the lock-on camera they’d be able to follow the action better. Reminds me of new Rocket League players.
And complaining about learning a button combo is… not substantial. When you’re in PvP it’s a single button press (you can only hop between 2 roles instead of the 4)
Glad I got a used AMD recently
