Do bots really exist in this game?

[Thugporn]

Not that Im complaining or anything because I do enjoy robbing them, but I was curious about their existence.

They all look alike, have the same starting hood with 2 trees, one laundromat, and one pizza shop.
All have about millions of cash on them along with a decent mafia size.
And the sad part is, they actually complete the LTQ, SLTQ, boss event, ect... that most new/old factions are actually struggling with.

If bots are indeed real then Im surprise theyve completed the shoe box event and contribute more to the economy then most empty hoods.

It looks like an account in one of those Bluestacks streak teams.

<- Go cry in a corner as I once wasted $$ to complete a box event that these guys are completing for free.
I know what bluestacks is, but What's a streak team btw?

Lots of cheaters in this game. They usually lose interest quick... Wouldn't you?

Looks like "agent smith" has found the game again

You mean $125... right?

[Vile Lynn]

If it looks too suspicious, SIT to report them (put CHEATER in subject line) and ask GREE to investigate it.

[Thugporn]

There'should be like a 100 of them which means about 100's of screenshots needed, and beside they've added an extra 3 mill to my iph.

What's weird is how noticeable they are in the rivals list by having a smaller head, not mention that most of the time they will be invisible.

Oook. Thanks for bringing us this!....

There are definitely bots. Same hood. Same guy attacking me hours apart. Now I was getting robbed quite often for a bit there for 50+million at a time, but not once by the same guy. Now this guy comes out of nowhere and only attacks, with 50+ mill worth of buildings up at the time? Then finds me 4 hours later and does the same? And again. If I was that easy to find I'm sure the real players would have found me again considering they scored half a years income off me in 2 minutes. I've encountered 2 bots. So not only are they bots, but they have either unlimited stamina or can some how "search" the rivals list

Hey you found my favorite farms. A fresh 20 mill on them everyone morning.. Theres a whole list

Use to hit them ALL the time...now they are not showing up the same way...and not as available. Never mentioned it in the forum...because I didn't want GREE read and remove such a luxury!

Currently, bots are being used in conjunction with autoclickers to watch advertisement videos and earn free gold. Once a set number of videos is watched, the autoclicker uses X,Y coordinates on-screen to close out of game, open up Google settings on Bluestacks, and reset advertising identifier.


Its simple scripting that only requires 8-14 lines of code, and as long as the emulator window is not moved, the script can run in perpetuity.




Did I ruin your trick? Sorry I'm not sorry.

They wont rob u but it don't matter how money on you but they will randomly attack. I been hit by 12 in the same second. After robbing 40 mil off sumone.

Bumping this. Some cheaters need to have their parade rained, nay, hurricaned on.

[Clementine]

Thank you for bumping this and bringing this to our attention. We have communicated it to the Developers. Additionally, if you do find users that are using bots or hacks, please report them to Support.

[Dipstik]

Yeah if you want people to report things, how about making it appear as if something's being done? I used to report obvious time travelers whenever I saw them (You know... every worthless building and all 50 missile launchers at level 10), but after the hundredth or so "Thank you for your report, we do not share the results of investigations, the issue is now closed" while the accounts are still active, I gave up.

Honestly, it's easier not to care. The cheaters will probably get bored and quit before anything is done about them.

[OffensivelyNamedGuy]

Back before support became utterly useless one guy actually compensated me for the money I lost to an obvious cheater.

The players we speak of were all in the same syndicate...we battled them one time last month. Their syndicate name is crab_shack.

I don't post much on the forums..just read mostly..because someone always has some foolish remark to share...not being overly productive. IMO
