      Exactly, just ask yourselves why did they acquire Psyonix? It's not because they wanted Rocket League so badly, it's because RL was a competitor they had the opportunity to take out while also trying to funnel as much of the players into fortnite (or at least that's how those execs would think it works). They're doing some cross-promotion nonsense for a while until it's time to pull the plug on RL and tell everyone to move over to the fortnite racing crap. They bought RL for the user base.

    For some clarity coming from a cybersecurity perspective, DDOS stands for Distributed Denial of Service. This is an attack style that usually incorporates potentially hundreds of servers, IoT devices, etc to overload the bandwidth and processing of any victim node.
    If the attacker is not "distributing" the connections via other methods, then the more standard Denial of Service (DOS) attack makes more sense.
    I know most gamers use Ddos to refer to server crashes, but just want people to be aware of what these terms actually mean. Ddos's have been common in video games but it seems unlikely to be used here. If bad actors want to take a whole system offline I can see a Ddos being used, which should immediately pop up on Epic's radar.
    My expertise is in a field adjacent to cyber, but from the looks of it these bad actors are using a more subtle disruption method.

      I guess people use the term Ddos as a universal term for server crashes, like you said. I'm assuming most people don't even know what it stands for in the first place so it's mostly just used as a universal term since most people know what to expect when you say Ddos, that being the server going down.

      Your knowledge to the attack is small then. We used to use Cain and able and the Xbox servers themselves to kick players/force host/and lag people out so they could never start a game but the host could run around and kill you and the games would be 25-0. All with 3 programs. Norton 360 pro, had a built in firewall that you could use to boot people if you were host, witeshark to get Xbox servers and proxy servers for matchmaking (there were 4 at the time) as well as you can easily get a persons IP in match because voice chat shows more packets coming through. If not just whitelist yourself and a friend in a private lobby and everyone else is a potential victim. Then IP flood via cane and able. You’re welcome.

For me, boosted teammates are not the problem, but i can only imagine the pain solo queuers feel. The worst part is that theres no straight forward solution for that.

      Its a comp game, what brilliant ideas do you have for new content? because every single time i see ppl complaining about this they never have any ideas to add, they just kinda cry. And ignore the fact that new content has definitely been added. Knockout? The other new modes that basically nobody plays? Tournaments? all added after epic bought the dev studio.
      Trading change sucks but the vast majority of players were not trading regularly. Cheaters are not everywhere. I have over 16,000 games played. I would know lol, yall really are like lil kids dude stg, over dramatic about everything.

      You say you want “Hackers deleted” yes just like every single game that has successfully deleted heckin hackers! Which games are those again?
      Obviously! Duh how could i be so blind to not think of such a great idea. Thank god we have amazing minds like you on the case! Just do something impossible! Delete the hackers who are not even hackers! Even though real hackers infest nearly every other comp game in existence. Players abusing a few bugs is obviously an issue but its not as big of a problem as the copium addicts in this comment section would like to believe.
      Invis car players are not hackers. Its a bug. Its been in and out of the game for over 3 years. Check yourself.Youll find posts years and years old about it.
      “Ddosers” are not hacking either btw. Sever crash exploit/bug. Epic has ddos protection, some of the best around. And ddosing is a fel0ny offence. The scabs crashing servers are not hacking anything. It will get fixed.
      But the delusion that all of a sudden theres thousands of players with access to b0tnets the size large enough to take down Epics servers on a whim is hilarious.
      Like just think about it for half a min. What is more likely? People abusing an exploit in the game to crash servers or...there’s just all of a sudden, tons of ddosers all who emerge from the shadows within weeks of eachother and can take down servers worth hundreds of millions and they use it to win a few ranked games… against actual bots like you?
      Ya know just casually risking ten years in fed and a half a million fine. No biggie. Against Epic Games. A company notorious for ruining the lives of multiple actual hackers with lawsuits and legal fees…
      Also, Youre never getting UE5 rocket league. How do you not realize this by now? The entire UE5 leak and rumors were all about rocket league racing. You know in fortnite, the game with ue5 support and a brand new rl mode? Again, hilariously cute that you think that though. Any day now…
      Creation tools would be nice but lets not pretend like custom maps on pc are widely used by anyone for multiplayer. Nor would be even if baked into the game itself. Its a barebones comp game. Theres not much to experiment with, people hardly play the extra modes…because most of players play for the comp side of the game. Rl is not a sandbox and really wouldn’t work well as one. How do yall not get this 9 years into a games life span?
      Also both yall should take a look at waytons rl tracker. The dude hardly even plays the game anymore.
      Go free play if you’re so scared of the “hackers” by the time they fix the problem maybe you’ll actually have improved slightly.

      And unranked accounts have no rank disparity

The websites that sell steam accounts also sell cheats so I find it very hard to believe that people buy accounts with botted hours but not cheats

    Wintrading in 2s works like this. U have 3 accounts that will be gaining rank, and 1 account that always loses. Then u just rotate each account to the dead accounts team and snipe yourself with a VPN. So account 4 will be our dead account, so 1-2 vs 3-4. Then next game would be 3-1 vs 2-4. Then 2-3 vs 1-4. It's a 2:1 win loss ratio so u still go positive. I did a test and I got 3 fresh accounts to ssl with rewards in 2 hours. It wouldn't be a hard fix at all either. Just add a simple filter patch that won't let 4 players on the same IP q into the same lobby😂

With around 1 minute left i guess the hacker screwed the coding up ended up doing it on themselves. The match ended but it didn't say they forfeited, it just said it ended like a normal match when the ball touched the ground with 0 seconds. The same thing happened in the second match and we luckily ended up winning. They was also super bad at the game, so we could only guess they made it to the finals using that method. The semi-finals was honestly the real finals here

    We see it in GTAO too.
    What plays in the background, is the legal issues behind penalizing actions like bans and erasing accounts.
    When the laws/countries caught up, more actions are possible, and do happen.
    If no laws were there, the game server owner can just see who is using artificial input and erase them.
    The intricacy thus lays within the legal backgrounds and insufficiency of player database management.

I played FPS forever, and I eventually quit FPS games because of wallhacks and aimbots (which I proved to myself were real by trying one, realizing thru the cheat how common other players were cheating, and instantly quitting FPS games the day after, that was 8 years ago, havent been back since)
    And now its happening to my favorite game of all time. GOS and other hacks, it is making me physically sick. I cant even enjoy my favorite game anymore that I chose to escape from children who suck at life in FPS games, now its here too. It is sickening.

    Sunless made an interesting observation on his channel. He said he thought it got bad after they ended trading. I didn't realize this but if you reported an exploit/hack the devs would give you the rarest item in Rocket League which is a white hat, I guess. That practice stopped, mysteriously. He theorized that once trading was gone, there was no way to give someone a white hat so the bounty system was retired. They really have done nothing but make this whole game worse.

Then figure out how spot it. (Usong faking)Then trip them up with deep fakes and watch the cheaters whiff and cuss you out.
