Chapter 451: Flooding of Plug-ins? (3rd Watch)
Chen Mo tapped lightly on the table.
"First of all, quickly screen through the in-game mechanism, and freeze all accounts that have recently had abnormal headshot rates, shooting accuracy, and various data increases."
"There are all kinds of death replays in the game, as well as highlight records, giving the relevant permissions to the personnel on the customer service side, so that they can manually review these reported accounts, and all those that are not operated by normal people will be frozen."
Su Jinyu nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”
Zheng Hongxi asked, "Is the freeze forever?" ”
Chen Mo shook his head: "No, it will be frozen temporarily, as for whether it will be sealed forever, it depends on the follow-up situation." Also, if the registration function is temporarily closed, at least for these three days, no new accounts can be added. ”
Qian Kun hesitated: "This is not enough, right, store manager?" Now our Thunder Game Pass is tied to an ID card. ”
Chen Mo's attitude was still resolute: "Temporarily close it first." There are a lot of ID card data sold on the Internet, and if you want to buy it, you can buy a lot of ID card information, which is not safe. ”
"Okay." Qian Kun nodded, "But store manager, these are not long-term solutions, I feel that they are all palliatives rather than cures." ”
Chen Mo nodded: "Well, I know." I've already asked about the game committee, and they said that they are investigating, and they will give an answer soon. During this period, first use manual review to try to control the influence of this matter. ”
Soon, everyone went their separate ways.
This plug-in outbreak also surprised Chen Mo.
Because FPS games are also a popular game genre in the parallel world, and have been operating for several years, I have never heard of such a large-scale plug-in.
The parallel world is different from Chen Mo's previous life, because the technology is more developed, and there are official institutions such as the game committee to regulate the market order, so the plug-ins of the previous FPS games have basically been eliminated, even if there are individual players who use plug-ins, they are all quickly banned, and there is no big storm.
In the parallel world, although the FPS game has been transferred from the PC platform to the VR platform, the principle of the game is still the same, when shooting, in order to ensure the game effect, some data must be stored and calculated on the client, which gives some plug-ins the opportunity to tamper with the data.
Therefore, whether it is in the previous life or in the parallel world, FPS games are the hardest hit area of plug-ins, although the specific cheating methods and techniques are completely different, but the principle is similar.
On the VR platform, there are two ways for players to open and hang up.
One is to crack the client data through special programs, that is, to read and tamper with the hidden content of the game through special means to achieve perspective, self-aiming and other effects, which is equivalent to a plug-in in the previous life.
The second is through some auxiliary equipment. Because players in VR games control their vision and shooting direction through their minds, there are some special auxiliary equipment that can help players complete some special operations.
For example, a player has a clumsy hand and a slower reaction, and only has a 30% hit rate when shooting; After using the assist, the assistive device can replace the player's original mind signal with a more correct mind signal, resulting in faster reflexes and a higher hit rate.
This auxiliary device is a bit similar to the mouse macro in the previous life, and will not tamper with the data of the game client, but will correct the player's operation, so that he can play some high-level operations more easily and brainlessly, which is equivalent to forcibly improving the player's level.
In the parallel world, plug-ins have been basically eliminated before, mainly for technical reasons.
On the one hand, it has become more difficult to crack the game, and on the other hand, a relatively complete inspection mechanism has been established in the game, once the client data is abnormal, an alarm will be automatically triggered, and after verification, the problem account will be automatically frozen and investigated.
Under the buyout threshold of one or two thousand for VR games, once it is verified, it will be permanently blocked, and by the way, even the ID number of the account will be blacklisted by the upstream committee.
Of course, those who really open the hang are not using their own ID cards, but even so, the cost of opening the hang is relatively high.
Therefore, although the previous FPS games also had plug-ins, they were far from being flooded.
However, after this outbreak of cheating, players were surprised to find that it seemed that none of the previous mechanics had any effect?
, and the inspection mechanism of these three games did not detect the data anomaly of the client, although the data of these cheating players is obviously not like a normal person, but the system has no alarm, so it is impossible to judge whether they are cheating or not.
In other words, it's a whole new kind of cheating.
……
The amusement committee is also investigating this matter, and after the investigation results of the technical personnel came out, the amusement committee notified Chen Mo as soon as possible.
Obviously, the technology of this plug-in temporarily surpasses that of the Phantom Editor, and moreover, it does not modify the client data.
Chen Mo knows very well that the parallel world is still in the midst of technological explosion, and various domestic and foreign technologies are iterating rapidly, and sometimes he feels that the development of technology has stagnated, but he may not know when a new technology will suddenly appear.
Obviously, this plug-in is one of the derivatives of the new technology.
Technological advances have made the means of preventing cheats more sophisticated, but the methods of making cheats will also become more sophisticated. After a certain technological innovation, this new plug-in quickly proliferated, quickly spreading from abroad to China.
According to the game committee, it should be a foreign technological breakthrough that was used by the developers of the plug-in, so the auxiliary equipment for the FPS games currently on the market has been developed.
This assistive device can modify the player's mind signal to a certain extent, and due to the high level of technology and the fact that there is no tampering with the client's data, the in-game check mechanism does not trigger an alarm.
If you want to solve this cheat once and for all, you have to wait for the technicians to crack it and update the in-game inspection mechanism.
When will the in-game check mechanism be updated? The game committee also doesn't have a very accurate time, after all, this kind of plug-in is also brand new for technicians and needs time to study.
Before that, if you want to control the spread of these plug-ins, you can only rely on the game companies themselves.
Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment and Zen Mutual Entertainment are also passing manual emergency verification, and all players who are suspected of opening are frozen.
In the case of the failure of the system's inspection mechanism, if you want to tell whether a player is open or not, you can only use the stupid method of "manual review".
Of course, once verified, the ID number bound to these players' accounts will also be blacklisted, and the ID card will no longer be able to register any FPS games.
However, this does not play a big role, because more than 90% of the players who are really open do not use their own ID cards.
On the Internet, there are many gray channels and ways to buy ID card information, but there are 1.3 billion people in China, and the players who play FPS games are tens of millions, and those players who are hanging can buy all kinds of identity information from the Internet and register multiple accounts.
Some people don't even know that their ID information has been stolen.
Therefore, it is not feasible to convict with ID cards at present, and it can only increase the cost of some hangers by blocking the ID number.
