Guild Wars 2

The number of people teleporting around the map is starting to bother me.

I take time to get the hard to reach Orichalcum and Omnomberry sites and I repeatedly witness people appearing – harvesting – then teleporting away. They do it so fast I don’t even have time to click on them to report them. Its noticable when two good harvests are close to each other and you can turn and watch them appear at the second one then evaporate away…

All the hard work people do in game is mocked when you see this.

I wish I could offer a technical solution but I don’t have one other than maybe something implemented client side.

If you won’t take away this advantage at least put it up for sale at the Black Lion Trading company. :/

I don’t think client side anti cheat programs are the answer, they’re notorious for causing problems with games and peoples computers by degrading performance and causing chunks of the player bases being unable to play the games that use them, and also being problematic for firewalls. That’s if you’re talking about a game-guard type software. I’m sure the game itself has anti cheat/anti hack stuff built into the engine already and they’re probably actively working to improve that.

They may cause additional problems sometimes but in many of the FPS games I played in the past the answer was just a manual update of (insert client side whatever here). I don’t believe they excluded that many ‘chunks’ of people from playing.

I disagree. I don’t feel the game has too many anti hack features built in. Between seeing players flying in the air and watching people in WvW run at 200mph – I have become a little disillusioned. I figured if I just grinded and farmed I wouldn’t see too much of that… but even there I do!

The ‘bots’ on the game really don’t bother me like the teleporters and such. Even though they are cheating – they really aren’t bending the rules of physics and are actaully taking the time to programatically kill all day everyday non-stop. If only I had the work ethic of those bots. lol.

It may not be a great solution but I felt I had to offer something.
The game loses a lot of meaning for me when I see hacks. I spend an hour or two doing something that takes someone teleporting 1 min to do. The value of my time decreases exponentially because of these hacks.
