lol You might want to reconsider--it's not like the 2015 days of happy-to-spawn-you-money "modders".

 

Most of today's 'breed' can't wait to vent their anger on someone.

mainly from boredom, they spawn infinite cash and get bored when there is nothing left to do so they greif others for a quick laugh

The modders have been insufferable tonight, and it seems throwing people through the air and setting us on fire is all they can do.

Can't wait for the day I see a post here describing how one of these punks gets a visit (and subpoena from) by a Take Two lawyer. And I'm not 

talking about the (modmenu) makers, but the actual users... Just imagine one of these gets the full treatment with all costs involved… Kinda like making

an example, if u get me... That'll make things actual very interesting... Poor parents if it's a kid...

I rather see better countermeasures by Rockstar, but seeing how things went with GTA (and now RDR-online), that'll take time...

 

Without ability to Solo session and protect yourself, it is indeed a dangerous situation for the majority of the (legit) playerbase… I've been ragdolled three times in the

2 months I'm playing… So they're most definitely out there… (again) :(

Crazy stuff. Don't understand why someone would to do this stuff to other people trying to play a game. Take away money, rank, etc, pretty  pathetic.

 

I'm sure there is at least one person here that does it. Would be interesting to see their explanations for why this behavior is "fun".

I take pleasure in knowing whatever makes them do such things will still be there to bite them..,

it's probably something t hats understandable.., but we will never get the feeling due to being so unattached to that kind of thought process.,

and would still axe them.., or pick them for Andrew Bells experiments..,

The fact you can't understand what motivates these people is a good thing. There are always going to be people like this in the world who gain pleasure from other people’s suffering. The people to blame here is Rockstar. They have absolutely no interest in stopping this kind of behaviour. You have prominent people on youtube who openly tell others how to cheat and demonstrate the process and with their user tag is full view yet these people don’t get any kind of punishment from Rockstar. It’s an absolute joke.

If this where to happen to me or someone else, how would you know if it was a hacker or a bug/ something like that?

I've encountered many modders, I'd guess there's at least one in every populated session, but this money drain thing has only happened to me once. For just a couple seconds before I hit alt-f4.

Are money drain issues the reason why GTA lets you put money in the bank? I've always been curious of the point of having money in your wallet and money in the bank. Apart from stopping a mugger take some loose change from you I've seen no reason for it unless it was a way to stop modders from draining it.

GTA allows you to create two characters and the "bank" money is shared between them while cash is not. And the money drain methods in GTAO, as far as I know have been stopped, but they'd take from the bank money too.

 

I think the original design intent back in 2013 was for players to mostly use cash and only deposit to the bank occasionally, as they made it annoying to do so at first (couldn't do it through the phone, had to go to an ATM). I'm not sure they expected players to ever make second characters, either. But that design changed quickly.

I thought if you were killed in GTAO money on you could be taken, so you had to put it in the bank to keep it safe.

back when gta online first launched you can drop thousands after you die, it basically forced you to deposit, now having cash in the bank or wallet is basically the same

Had about 5-6 cops suddenly drop out of the air around me and kill me while I was in St. Denis last night... left the session pretty quickly.

 

Thankfully, this is 'only' the third time in over six weeks I've encountered someone using a "mod" menu.

Here's a new article posted today: https://www.ign.com/articles/red-dead-online-hackers-treasure-chests-banned

 

So a mod menu (and if one can do it, others can or soon will) added a feature to spawn Treasure Map treasure chests. Anyone who interacts with them gets banned, even if they're not the modder who spawned it. I'm guessing this is because the chests reward gold.

 

If you see a treasure chest that doesn't belong, do not touch it.

GTAO existed for five years, 3 on PC, before RDO came out. Three years at least to fix the issue that lets players spawn stuff and just in general f*ck with other players and ruin sessions.

 

What did they do in that three years to fix the issue? Literally nothing.

 

something something R* didn't want to make RDO

 

I expect GTAO2 will have these problems fixed.

nope i dont think so, rockstar will always treat pc players like an afterthought. Waiting a whole year for a clearly rushed pc port only to have literally zero anti cheat, seems to me they just took our money and ran

I expect it won't. Probably use the same p2p networking and worthless anticheat.

 

I bet GTAO2 will have something equivalent to RDO's gold bars, though. Shark line of credit?

Yea I could easily be wrong but I've long thought now that Rockstar didn't really want to make RDO, or at least the RDO we have today. It's launch state felt like a game that was scrambled together in a few months at most. From a technical standpoint it felt like GTAO 1.1. It improved the flow of getting into free roam sessions and going in and out of missions and modes, but beyond that it is no more advanced than GTAO.

 

My expecation (or hope) is that GTAO2 will be redone from the ground up. I'd hope this would be the case if the rumoured multiple cities are true, cause we may see stuff like 64+ players then, or phasing used (Forza Horizon 4, TDU, The Crew's have a similar online method). The byproduct of this could be (should be) that everything is now server side rather than client side, so clients can't edit stuff, which is how and why GTAO and RDO hacking is so rampant even though other online games, even ones that utilise P2P, do not have this problem.

 

But we'll see I guess.

It won't be fixed until they add dedicated servers that has cheat detection system like EasyAntiCheat or something. 

 

So I'm guessing it will never happen since T2's shareholders won't allow funding on dedicated servers.

Again, a large portion of GTAO/RDO cheating is because players have the ability to edit client side files. Most (all) modern online games store these files server side or require server side checks which virtually eliminates a significant amount of hacking - things like spawning items, invincible health, etc. You do not need to run sessions or games exclusively on dedicated servers to do this, there are games that still utilise peer to peer networking that do not have the problems GTAO and RDO have.

 

Most anti-cheat systems are made to detect things like aimbots and wallhacks that reads (note, not edits) information in the games memory - so it knows where players are, where to aim, etc. Anticheat in RDO and GTAO likely wouldn't fix anything, it may lead to more bans (unlikely, given Rockstar's blasé policy on dupers and exploiters) but it wouldn't plug the holes that allow players to hack the game in the ways they do.
