Almighty Video Game Designer - Chapter 456

Chapter 456: The world’s number one Sky Hunter?

After the emergency update of Overwatch added a detection program, the game environment of the entire Overwatch was cleared.

Moreover, the fact that he quickly banned a large number of accounts showed the players Chen Mo’s determination to crack down on cheating, and they all clapped in joy.

As for whether this detection program could completely root out the external modification?

The answer was obviously No.

It was just like how no matter how advanced human medical technology was, it was impossible to kill all bacteria and viruses and cure all diseases. Every technological advancement and innovation would also encourage a corresponding innovation in external hack technology, and new external hacks would always emerge one after another.

As long as there were related interests, the cheat would always exist.

Chen Zhao was very clear about this. However, the biggest significance of this test program was that it could block out more than 90% of the auxiliary equipment.

Those that could bypass the inspection process might only account for less than one-tenth of all the external hacks, and they were very expensive. It was normal for them to cost thousands or tens of thousands a month.

Chen Mo couldn’t do anything about these hacks, because it was a battle between the world’s advanced technology. The designer couldn’t do anything.

However, as long as the external modification could be controlled within a certain range, it would be fine. After all, there were only a few people who could afford to use this kind of high-end external modification. Moreover, they did not dare to use it openly, or it would definitely be detected by people.

The number of people who used cheats had been greatly reduced, and they were all used very carefully. This way, the damage that the cheats could cause to the game itself would be limited to a very small range and would not cause too serious of an impact.

Of course, Chen Mo also hoped to get rid of all the cheaters, but he still had to rely on the game Committee.

……

On the first day of the update of Overwatch, the number of daily active players dropped by 29%.

However, after the testing program was officially released, the daily active players of Overwatch began to rise again due to the high number of positive reviews from players.

Obviously, many players ‘first reaction to this Assessment Program was distrust, so they did not log into the game. However, after seeing the importance of the detection program, the players all accepted it and returned to the arms of the Overwatch.

On the fifth day after the update, the number of daily active players had exceeded the previous figure and was still growing rapidly!

Many of them were players from Wolf soul and fire assault.

The two games were still in the stage where cheats were rampant, and even though Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment were working overtime to ban their accounts, they couldn’t use a detection program to block most of the cheats like Chen Mo.

The players of these two games were annoyed by the external hacks. After much thought, they decided to play Overwatch!

It just so happened that Overwatch had just won the title of game of the year, so its quality was definitely not a problem. It was free, and there was no threshold to try. Moreover, he heard that Chen Mo was extremely ruthless with the use of cheats, and it was almost impossible to find any in Overwatch.

With these three points added together, a large number of players from Wolf Soul and raging inferno assault were attracted to the game. Although the Overwatch had lost a group of players due to the detection program, it had gained even more new players!

Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment’s higher-ups were fuming, but they couldn’t do anything about it. They weren’t as bold as Chen Mo, who dared to ask for the highest authority of VR gaming pods from the players.

Chen Mo dared to do this because he had enough charisma and his players trusted him, but Lin chaoxu and Liu Yuanfeng didn’t have the ability!

They had no choice but to wait for the game Committee to solve this issue from a technical level.

……

In the experience store.

Qian Kun was showing Chen Mo a video.

The player in the video was using Hunter Kong to play the game. His reaction was very fast, and he shuttled through the battlefield quickly. His gun was very stable, and almost every burst of bullets could kill a brittleskin.

Qian Kun explained,”this is the streamer that has been reported by a lot of people recently. His name is Hami. He’s pretty popular on fish-catching gaming platform right now. He’s the third most popular streamer on Overwatch, and his popularity is still rising. He’s also known as the world’s number one Sky Hunter.”

Chen Zhao was speechless.

It was obvious that the live streaming platforms in the parallel world also liked to use such gimmicks to attract viewers. At the moment, Overwatch was only open on the local server and not on the foreign server. Indeed, there was no difference between the number one Sky-hunting game in the country and the number one Sky-hunting game in the world, because no one played Overwatch overseas.

If you want to, you can even be called “the number one Sky Hunter in the universe”!

These few videos were all exciting plays by Hami. Compared to the other streamers of “Overwatch”, Hami’s main feature was his excellent marksmanship. Other streamers liked to play assassin-type heroes like Yuanshi, but Hami liked to play shooting-type heroes that could show off.

Heroes like Hunter Kong and 76 were all Hami’s favorite.

Obviously, the players who had been abused by cheats in Overwatch knew that heroes who relied on marksmanship like this were the favorite of cheats. They had never heard of people using cheats to play sledgehammer and Gorilla.

Evidently, this Hami had been reported many times, but the customer service staff couldn’t confirm if he was cheating or not. Considering that he was a streamer and had some influence, they handed him over to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo watched the video three times, then looked at some of the scenes frame by frame.

“I can’t tell.” Chen Mo shook his head.

“Uh …” Qian Kun pointed at the screen,”he turned 180 degrees and instantly locked the camera. Isn’t that a hack?”

Chen Mo shook his head,”for some FPS experts, a 180-degree turn isn’t that difficult after practice.” As for instant aim, you can say that his reaction was fast or that he was lucky. This level of performance is far from enough to be a solid hammer. ”

“Hmm…You’re right,”Qian Kun nodded.

“One thing for sure,” Chen Mo said,”is that even if he did cheat, it would be a very high-level hack for streamers. It would be able to avoid the detection of Overwatch.” Moreover, he must have used it very carefully. It was very likely that he only used this plug-in to assist in aiming and micro-self-aiming. Moreover, his reaction speed is indeed very fast. He’s an expert himself, so he’s very clear about the operation mechanism of the cheat. His acting skills are also not bad. ”

“Moreover, we can’t find out whether he’s using a cheat or not based on these videos. So, let’s just leave it at that for now. When the game committee updates the anti-cheat program, we should be able to detect it. ”

“Alright, that’s the only way,” Qian Kun nodded.
