Nerferu Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 we were promised an efficient solution against the bots, plus I see tons of bots spread by the server. I would like a staff position on this and what action will be taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like a staff position on this and what action will be taken. Just like retail servers, nothing will be done aside from random bans. The top clans wont be touched for botting and the RMT companies and future cash shop events will be your main supplier of adena as with retail. You either get used to this or don't play, it's as simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
existenz Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 sadly nothing can be done about bots and RMT and never will. what do you care anyway? you can play just fine even if some are botting somewhere. it is not affecting you to make friends and play together to achieve a common goal. it would be nice if they have a protection against bots that actually do something but...

Aytrax Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 If they cared about bots there would have been hundreds of accounts banned already. NCsoft just doesn't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dude Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 People will try to bot. It's the nature of the game. It's been around for so long (Botting) that people will try and try until they just can't anymore. NC is working hard to stop the bots. From what I've heard, there have been already quite a few ban waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say they did work hard in the past. Please use your reading comprehension skills. They invested time and money to stop z a few years ago. Now ad. is apparently still an option for people. And they invested into Xigncode which HAS been working. I've heard of people using ad and getting the ban hammer. The system takes time to process the data it receives to issue a penalty. Report the bots. Watch them dissapear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch them dissapear. get serious ncwest never cared for bots if they did they would had get rid of em back in the first days of the game. they was doing back then just some random bans from time to time thats all. you will not see bots to dissappear no matter how many of em you report as long as there are people willing to buy adena from em. 17 minutes ago, existenz said: yea but we had fun at that time so we can have fun now... its not like i cant sleep or eat because lineage 2 have some bots yes we had a lot of fun ill agree with you but the difference is that we had a decent p2p system that was working and not a f2p system that is broken and it force you to p2w.

Devylin Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Lineage 2 was designed, from the ground up, for bots. They are a part of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerente Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 NCSoft want to ban bots, because ppl spend money on bots adenas instead NCOINS, they just CANT against them. That's why they asked us to help them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatHips Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 subscription model will significantly increase the cost of entry for bots, combined with decent enforcement (at a far lower cost, due to less volume), easy solution to bot problem. Yet another consequence of our beloved free to play model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
