Cheaters Cheaters Cheaters!And no reaction from Funzio!

[Behzat]

Am i the only one who think Funzio lets cheaters to continue playing this game or is it just my luck!!??There is still one in my friend list and he is still playing this game for months but today i realized another cheater Money glitch! i have more than 2x income according to him but when i checked his inventory i couldnt believe my eyes.Hundreds of Mercedes and the other cars and lots of in game cash equipment.His income is 40k per hour but he has hundreds of million dollar cash cars and weapons.i sent report but you know the answer.The result will not be shared with you!!!!Why???Why dont u share?Can it be because you wont ban them???!!!!! i paid lots of real cash for this game and still spending!im a gold buyer but a cheater comes and hack the game earn everything without spending single coin so why am i paying for his game?To whine for the cheaters i think and i rlly got bored.i will seriously stop buying gold because they dont share the results and cheaters are still here :( Wont you do anything about them Funzio?At least tell us so we can decide or i can decide my future in this game!!??

I agree mate but it falls in deaf ears

[sexkitteh]

errr.... I really don't care what other players are doing...

I just enjoy playing my game...

[Behzat]

Yeah you are right i know nothing will change but i rlly feel sorry for the dollars i spent for this game until now :( Sexkitteh i cant find anything to tell you.Same response with Funzio dissapointing.....

[sexkitteh]

Well you got to not let it get to you... every game will have a cheater...

Just relax and focus on your game...

It's like I said before - it's like a game of golf...

You can go out spend thousands on golf equipment and go play a round and shoot 84... and it cost you time and effort to get there...

While the guy next to you is playing with crappy clubs from the 20's and he writes himself a score of 64... and puts no effort or anything into the game...

Who cares what he's doing though... if he wants to cheat... good for him!

What would you do? laugh at him and call him a fake and not pay any attention to him...

[Behzat]

You may be right.As u say there are always cheaters but the problem is Funzio doesnt do anything about cheaters even they say cheat is a serious matter for them.Ok they disqualified them in the most earners event which was a good move but its not enough.They must ban cheaters there isnt another way!Also i spent serious money for this game thats why i get mad too.Anyway maybe it was my fault to pay for this game,im rlly not sure about it.

Oh btw i always wanted to tell u this but couldnt have chance.i will say now.i hate your avatar it is seriously scary and disturbing :)

[Hambone]

Behzat,

I've reported multiple cheaters this week and I am as frustrated as you!

Sorry clown, no golfer can shoot a 64 without putting any effort into it. Bad analogy.

[Fredo]

I love this illogic. By the same reasoning, because law enforcement cannot catch and punish every criminal, we shouldn't bother having a police force or reporting criminal activity. Just focus on yourself, you know.

[sexkitteh]

That's what I'm saying... the guy can WRITE down 64 when he really shot a 200... whatever... that's what I'm getting at...

[Babytway]

ive reported a blatant cheater for that last couple months and his hood is still the same and still see him on rivals list everyday. i used the ingame support button on crime city(the subject line says crime city incident report) that sends all your device info and ive included screen shots of hood inventory/ and his stats page in the email i explained what the cheat was and directed them to the screenshots. the response i got from funzio was: what funzio game are you playing. what device and version are you using, what makes you think this person is cheating. whats his name and level, can you provide screenshots. REALLY Funzio are you serious? do you even read support tickets anymore or you're just going to start sendign out auto replies with only reading the first line

[Rhino72]

(Forget I posted here, I am still upset with the 91 I posted this morning :mad:)

You obviously aren't a golfer - people pay attention to other's scores - and compare notes over beers......

[Brooklyn Boy]

errr.... I really don't care what other players are doing...

But the point is there are times that it directly interferes with your game play. Just like what happened to me 2 days ago. A blatant cheater 70k/70k Atk/Def 35,000IPH 2 Lvl 10 NC's and 2 Lvl 9 CASINO'S at Lvl 126!! so this guy attacks me all day long and takes all of my ATM's from me not allowing me to play the event when I already had 8 debit cards. I had already invested 650 gold in the event. Bottom line this guy took me out of the event for 12-14 hours with only a day and a half left! Total BS and Funzio does nothing about it! Oh and by the way by the time he was done his IPH HAD GONE UP to over 6,000,000!!!

[PawnXIIX]

I thought somebody said that when they were banned that they weren't removed from the rival list or something...I'm quoting a post that in my head I thought I saw...

They are banned then their account just sits there or something. The best way to tell was $0 on hand? Anyone think that rings a bell here?

Exactly. Sexkitteh's golfer guy is only cheating himself. I lost ATMs to the respect hacker Alex over the weekend, forcing me to ditch mafia to get under his radar. The beatings don't worry me, but losing my stuff to a dirty cheat does.

Yeah- that part does suck :(

Actually I am a golfer and I got my cgtf... so... obviously you are a retard...

I've never met an adult - especially in the 21st century - that actually uses the word "retard".........how enlightened you must be.

Or is that a German thing.........remember - don't talk about the war!

Don't talk about the war? Oh right... you probably lived through the war :/ I forgot you are old... and retarded...

But pardon my ignorance... why aren't we or would we talk about the war?? I'm just puzzled with this statement.. I wasn't really sure where to go with it... maybe it's a touchy subject in your age group? is that it? Was that an attempt to push buttons?... Maybe someone else can help me answer this cause I'm lost...

Thanks for the feedback. I'm meeting with the support team today to go over additional strategies for dealing with potential and proven cheaters. I'll also talk to the engineers about what they're doing to fix exploits.

And the ones who spent a little gold, cheated, then spent a little more gold?

nein nein nein [10 minutes later] I'm not in line! I'm not in line! I'm not in line!

hehe. But thanks for going to the engineers with this one. Good to see this is headed in the right direction :)

I'm not going into policy details for any account or situation.

[upsman_17]

Understandable. But it would be just as easy to say:

"Of course we will deal with them just as harshly as a player that has not spent money on the game."

By saying this, you would satisfy all of these people who are really concerned about cheaters. You don't even have to be serious when you say it since none of us are privy to the internal process anyway. Not tryin to give ya shiz, just a thought to help you settle the masses.

[mongorie]

Just remove all cash weapons and respect equipment or nerf them all to 1A/1D
Then the cheaters won't bother to get them

[Behzat]

Oh thank you so much Mark im rlly glad you read my thread and replied here.Now i have hope pls just do something about them.You are the only familiar face here as a staff and i rlly believe what you say.Thx

And friends thx for everything but let me say one more thing this is our game even you pay or not this is our game and we musnt accept cheaters to spoil our efforts in this game.Sexkitteh they spoil your honest efforts too so you must take them serious my friend.

and Thx again Mark for your support and answer.its not about being a paying customer but As a gold buyer it rlly makes me mad someone can do better with cheat than my real money which i spent for this game.But Cheaters spoil everyones efforts not only gold buyers.

[PawnXIIX]

Cheaters are always the issue, and it's sad that we have to deal with them but I guess people enjoy ruining it for everyone :/

Thanks for dealing with them Mark. It seems like you've been more active now than in the past...like I've seen a large influx of posts from you and I personally appreciate the increased attention if such is true :)

[Swifty]

Funzio has a top-ranked team of software engineers (Funzio-speak for one guy working in his Mom's basement) dedicated to the problem.

I wouldn't say I'm more active right now, I go through spates of being active. You'll be seeing a lot more of me (the real me, I may stop using CCM) on here and on our social media pages and some other places.

[emcee]

Compared to Storm8 games, Gree pales in comparison to the level of cheating. There are countless in game wall posts about the topic. Its so bad that support can't deal with it and their forum pretty much does not acknowledge it.
Gree, imo, is at least trying to address the issue.

[PawnXIIX]

The only way to combat cheating is the get the cheaters to be on their side. This is why so many huge companies hire white hats to work for them. The best way to beat a hacker is to hire one.

There needs to be the users to report the bugs rather than abuse them so they can get smashed as quickly as possible before a potential exploit becomes a massive issue D:

[Dipstik]

I've been attacking this guy nonstop for days now just to blow up his explosives. I don't know he's a cheater, but he does have thousands of every cheap explosive and a spattering of the more expensive ones. He has about 30 land mines and about 50 anthrax. $50k/hour income... claims he robs a lot. riiiiiight.

When he found out I was just attacking him to destroy his explosives, he posted this on my wall:

"While you gain nothing. I understand you attacking because you can get some stuff out of me but wasting your hits when you gain nothing is kind of stupid. I bet you are a liberal democrat."

Wow :)

[watumba]

i have realized that some players are using a mirror to cover their real game names. on your rivals' list there is ''Murph1329558'' but when u enter to his hood it's ''pb5172''. i have reported 4 such players + 1 hacker but there is no info from funzio about what's going on. is it normal or legal to cheat??

I think that's a bug/glitch. Sometimes I have loaded a rivals list and all 20 names are wrong, jumbled with meaningless numbers, repeated several times, etc.

The way things have been going lately, I am far more inclined to believe there are some serious issues with the game and the majority of the stuff everyone calls "cheating" is really just broken stuff that (apparently) no one can do anything about.

:) then i better stop beating them & maybe even try to apologize.

Beat them up all you like if you're able to, that's one of the objectives of the game. However, if you're posting accusations on their walls I would just stop doing that since it's really difficult to say with 100% certainty if they are, in fact, big fat cheaters. :p

[Silverstripe]

The real problem is when a cheater blows thru millions of dollars of explosives. His account may get banned, wheres my restitution for my hard earned millions he "stole" from me?? You lose 3 things from a cheater: the robbery cash he never would have been able to take, the extra missing 20% after a robbery, and the explosives.

I am glad to see CCM commenting and promising action.

[watt]

I have reported 4 players cheating, forced funzio to take action. one of those players got banned for 12 hours. I got banned from forum forever. so it's time for me to leave that game.
