Tired of bots running around. Ideas to overcome bots

P V P servers

There is only one way to avoid the bot infestation: Play a different game.

The New World Bot Pandemic is not that difficult to cure. But they simply don’t care to do it. AGS does not permanently ban bot accounts, and that fact tells the whole story. Behind the scenes, AGS gives bots a wink and a nod. And because of this, bots will always be a part of NW.

I have tried it and CS delete the image without any warning, looks like these bots are legal in AGS. Cheers… :laughing:

Agree with that, Because it’s not difficult, I think how can AGS let this continue?
Looks like they’ve had a meeting about bots and agreed to let them roam around so the game doesn’t look lonely.

@Pikachi
I did not say that AGS won’t implement any ideas from forum members, I said they won’t implement ideas that’s suggested on this post concerning bots. They don’t even bother banning them even though there are hundreds of bots being reported.

Lets be honest here, players who are not bots at some point have reported multiple bots on their server just to see those bots are still there. NOTHING is being done about this, I dont know if this is because of ignorance, incompetence, understaffing or AGS secretly allow it to happen. My point is if they can’t even stop them by botting, they won’t go the extra mile with changing their codes to implement some of these ideas.

The one and only way to finally be done with the bots is to ruthlessly ban/delete account data of anyone who purchases gold from an RMT site. If they get off their dead asses and do that the bot problem goes away within 48 hours!

That is correct. Remove the buyers and the bots are gone.
That is the only reliable way.

You must be new to the game. Hit X your weapon sheaths and you no longer suffer player collision. Plus in the next patch there is no longer player collision.

K, I see what you mean, and I agree with you. We currently only need proof that they are really offline because they have been punished. If AGS silently allows bots activity, the

Block List feature will no longer display Online Status.

I hope this will never happen. Cause I like New World game.

Yes, building 4 tents now is not very successful, the bots will automatically perform the Unstuck feature when they are at the same point for a certain time.

Remove buyer means remove Gold Trade feature. I don’t think it’s the right solution, banning the bots one by one is the fastest way. Because a busy server will always be locked so that it avoids bots from creating new accounts.

Apparently you’re one that frequents New World RMT sites.

People who blatantly violate the TOS by purchasing gold via an RMT site should be dealt with ruthlessly. Delete all their assets and permanently ban them.

What is RMT ?

Edited*
Just found out what is RMT, real money trading right?
Ohh I see, basically you are accusing me?

It’s up to you what you want to say, if I was one of them why did I bother buying costumes and thinking about the attributes on my character??

I think you talk too much without proof.

I am a connoisseur of games like this, Dragon Nest, Far Cry, Genshin Impact, The Forest, and many others that I have played. You are very difficult to understand may your days always be like Monday.

No that is not what it means. It means ban the buyers, not the bots.

hmm

Technically a PvP server with unflag disabled would be the birth of bot hunters. Though I don’t see a PvP server happening which leaves us with very few options. Could counter farm the bot? Follow it, learn its path, then do it in reverse taking each and every node from it leaving it stuck in an endless empty dry run.

Could body block the bots farming
Crash a mob onto a bot
Interrupt a bot fighting a mob, body block it, n let the mob kill the bot
Idk, form a giant zerg party the likes noone has ever seen n Lag the bot out of existence?!
Ags gives players a Bot rifle that marks players as “Potential bot” They have to do the actual investigating after. (If Player integrity wasn’t shit)

Kinda a get used their presence kind of game.

Haven’t heard of Dragon Nest in awhile. The forest is a cheeky habit of building a fortress in the middle of the ocean for no reason & having a shark farm for less of a reason.

I see, maybe AGS can’t detect buyers cause they can’t detect bots and ban them. Idk.

What different Bot Rifle and Report Bot Behavior?
Shouldn’t AGS be easy to investigate?

Yeah Dragon Nest is a game that is too simple. But I think it’s a pretty good game in 2010. :grin:

It was simple but effective. It’s just usually under the radar since Highly large title games get all the spot light. But that’s good, we keep all the quirky, unique MMO’s to our selves & they still produce meaningful content.

Make all resources random spawns in both time and location. That’s a pain but it would force the bots into search mode rather than pre planned routing. I’d prefer full loot PVP but that ships sailed.

Maybe it’s the most effective way but I think it’s difficult for AGS to realize.

no
