Outriders will mark cheaters with a watermark in the game

The developer People Can Fly is expected to crack down heavily on cheaters in Outriders when it comes out next week, but not to ban them immediately. Those identified as having cheated will have a “discreet but visible watermark” placed on their HUD at all times, which means that any game they share online can be immediately identified as illegitimate. They will still be able to play, but the studio also prevents them from playing games with players who follow the rules. Cheaters will only be able to associate with other cheaters online, which means that the matchmaking process will take much longer. People Can Fly will check all accounts on launch day and then at regular intervals after launch.

Of the two million players who tried the Outriders demo, 200 were identified as cheaters. “We can see all of you. Yes, even the person who gave himself 600 legendary weapons,” the developer posted on Reddit. People Can Fly then describes what it considers breaking the rules:

• Run the game intentionally on the PC without Easy Anti Cheat (EAC)
• Modifying game files to improve a character: levels, skills, inventory, etc.
• Externally modifying game time to reduce time-dependent resources, such as vendors and challenges
• Use a training program or similar to gain in-game benefits
• Using gameplay-altering programs, such as aimbots or wallhacks

Of course, much of this only applies to the PC user base, but it is worth reviewing what is acceptable and what is not, since Outriders uses the cross game. Simply cultivating for weapons and resources is not considered cheating. “Even though the amount of beating This one submitted captain can be considered unethical.
