Anti-abuse system update

Thoughts?

I like the idea but I do hope it is automated.

 

Also it would be cool if they impemented system where afk player is being replaced by another player.

Like if you won't move or be able to log into battle for whatever reason in 2 minutes time you are replaced.

As long as it is automated and not dependent on reports, it should be fine.

BAN THEM ALL!!!!!

That would be only fair methinks. After all, there may be a perfectly good/innocent reason why someone is AFK, so simply replacing them at the beginning of the game should be quite enough. I mean, if you start auto-banning people left and right just because their network lags or they suddenly had their mom (or possibly wife ehm..) pull the plug on the PC that might also be quite unfair eh?

Yeah, that way, those that really had problems/got disconnection can try getting into another game, real afk/bots are kicked and the team won't lose one sometimes two players at start.

As long as it is automated then fine. Player sent reports are so impartial at times

[Turin7]

As all the others have already said, unless its an automated system it will be ridiculously prone to abuse....

 

Get it? The anti-abuse system will be abused? No? I'll get my coat.

[Aotearas]

As long as salty douchecanoes can't force people to play CoOp via false reports, it should be a good thing.

 

If people can abuse the system however, it's going to sink faster than the Lusitania.

[RAHJAILARI]

Yeah, but now that we are on topic... There SHOULD really be a way to get those Salty douchecanoes (a good one @Aotearas) penalized somehow for false reporting too.

[Klopirat]

imho also a mix between automated and report system should work...and for the mentioned cases of abuse it should be simple to detect false reports...

 

And perhaps this system can be extenden to a ship-specific one...for example having less than 10k average damage in a Tirpitz will limit this ship for you to co-op only

Yea. I'm thinking that wg is implicitly admitting that the current in-game "afk " report system, the one wg support apparently refers to when people contact it, is nothing but a joke.

[herrjott]

I hope the system will also be active in co-op! Otherwise people will just start game -> leave game -> start next game until the penalty is over (you already see pinkies doing this).

[ghostbuster_]

i bet its gonna depend on the stupid reporting system and "misbehaviour in chat" is gonna be the only option which actually works... because its wg

[Paimentaja]

I truly hope they will get this thing working and reduce drastically amount of bots, afk's and TK's.

 

At least that is what they promised when replying to a ticket regarding an extremely annoyingly programmed bot I had couple of weeks ago. Our DD in the beginning just turned 180 degrees and sailed to the rear border, started to ping in the minimap continuously so many times, that the gameplay itself seemed to be overflowing stuff in the background and everything started to glitch and eventually broke my controls and zoom mode was not working. It seemed a lot like the stuttering / FPS drops from patch just before, but even worse.

Ehh, don't know about that man, I got Detonated in Musashi once only couple of mins min into the game, when an Iowa hit me right on the nose with its first salvo from something like 20km away.

 

Didn't manage to do more than 7k damage (managed to fire just 1 salvo and that was it).

[Sargento_YO]

I hope that includes those who uses Defensive AA as well. (an automatic report for those)

I just hope the system wont get abused.

 

If I get reported and banned from random, just because some potato DIV abuses it ... im gonna snap.

[philjd]

Does this mean that we can all go around and report all the Hurricane clan members and get them restricted to Co-op mode during clan wars, just so that we "mere mortals" can  get undeserved bragging rights?

Too little information, really.

The idea "send teamkillers, AFKers and other scum to coop" sounds great, but so does "chatban chat abusers" and we all know how it can be (ab)used sometimes.

 

So, the question is how it will be handled. Fully automated? Might work on AFKers and that's about it. Somehow dependent on reports? Much more flexible, but then we're up against the big problem of "how do we stop abuse of an anti-abuse system" so that you can't, say, get Random-banned by meeting a rabid division that will dump all their reports on you for one reason or another.

At least I am immune to any potential abuse of that system.

Maybe the system automatically detects if someone enjoys CoOp and instead forces them to play Ranked?

[gekkehenkie50]

Imo maybe this is something that the Karma system could help with; beyond a certain point good players who arent ranting all the time in chat will, despite the hate they receive from salty farmed enemies, get a higher karma rating (going off of personal experience here)... Perhaps beyond say, 100 karma, you get the ability to in-game report with some meaning? And if these reports are proven to be fair, your influence increases? Something like that atleast.

[wilkatis_LV]

Funny how the Anti-Abuse system, if implemented similarly to Anti-Chat-Abuse system, would be extremely abusable Fully automated or no deal - that's the only way

[orzel286]

Great idea, instead of containing trash in the trashcan (pvp q) wg wants it all over the place. Awesome. AND instead of improving standard coop and giving a bit better rewards to coop players (for their patience alone if anything) wg decided it's better to take a giant dump on this part of the playerbase. WHY DO YOU HATE COOP PLAYERS SO MUCH WG????????????????????????????????????

I'd uninstall. I played enough pvp/competitive games to get enough salt for eternity, I don't need any more.
