Using the wallet to identify players/hackers

[archamedes 238]

Nice Idea Not Sure if So Open and Shut though When you Find Hacked Ammo Sometimes a Newbie Might Have Picked up off a Dead Player or Dropped Gear

Or a Hacker Could Just Plant then Screen Cap To Report and Troll Others 

Cant Realy Be Solved Unless Can Be Certain of the Source,Sadly

And I Like IDea for Identifivation tho :D

... As Long as when they Respawn Wallet Doesnt Say "Unknown Entity" Hate Not Knowing Who Just tried to murder Me

I admit, the reporting someone via their id/steam name isn't perfect & there are loopholes for trolling and abuse but at current, battleye, cheater reporting and hackers adapting their scripts and tactics is just as frustrating as it is now. There is never going to be a perfect solution that isn't going to be manipulated or someone falling victim to false guilt, its literally a 1 step forward 2 steps back no matter what happens, if you go too extreme in one direction, it sacrifices the game, makes the security too over the top & will annoy the community. If you don't do anything, the hackers win and the community will give up hope anyway and move on to other games. At least if there was a bit more hands on help from us the gaming community that can do that little bit extra to expose some of them, upload fraps recorded footage that makes it a clear, black and white open shut case & those responsible get punished and banned, then word will spread around the hacker community and at the very least, some of them will think twice about attempting it if they know all it takes is someone to kill them and find a load of duped gear and hacked mags that they claim they apparently found on another body, but decided to keep... you know for safe keeping of course. I also think the laoding screen disclaimer should be revised with text saying "Do not take hacked ammo or scripted gear, it is your responsibility as a player to leave it alone or hide the corpse with it." that'll also stop those from saying "but i didn't know, i just found it and thought it was a bug."

Agreed :)

Perhaps if a Player is Reported the Studio's Could Monitor their Account More That Way Hackers Can Be Caught With Minimal Innocent Casualties

Known And Been Casualty to Some Honest Players Have Been Banned Due to Hackers Activity (I.E. Giving Gear or Money to Whole Server of 64 Players in other titles)

Just Makes Games Not Fun And you Wonder why You Suddenly Have 10Billion $ or Extra things in your Inventory xD Suddenly you Lose online Access To a Game you Pay alot for :(

And its Hard to Get Back Once Lost

Hope that One day Someone Finds a Way To Catch Hackers Without that Over-Zealously Judging You Mentioned that Sacrifices the Community
