3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Tarkov studio claims it actually doesn't have the server capacity for everyone who bought the game for $150 to play its upcoming PvE mode, still wants players to pay extra (www.pcgamer.com)

Lol

It STILL is impossible to verify everything server side unless you have a crazy powerful adaptive AI engine the likes of which still don't exist today and you need to scale that for hundreds of thousands of concurrent players.

Serverside anti-cheat requires AI

You need to go out in the world (where the trees don't have pixels) and learn about this stuff if you want to be in this field / pretend to argue about it. Instead you've conflated the facts that other people are telling you (this is a hard problem that takes effort) with the corpo propaganda (It's expensive so It's impossible)

Also: Your llama-based waifu is not real. Good luck with your chat bot addiction.

No, I'm not an AI technro, and this doesn't have fuck all to do with LLMs, but with today's sophisticated cheats if you want serverside anti cheat, that's just a fancy way of saying behavior verification, and if you can do it without some sort of adaptive system then good luck mate

I also don't give a shit about pretending to be in the game, mate I'm a developer and I would love nothing more than getting another degree and kissing this garbage field goodbye

AMD is always hiring devrel. You get to fanboy, travel, vaguely consult on a bunch of cool titles before they come out, and it pays way better than actual gamedev. Same goes for all the other hardware manufacturers, as well as engine and Middleware companies. (Also yacht parties and drama if you swing it right)

I think you're talking botting where I'm talking hacking. With botting, you're right you do need "AI" where AI is the old heuristics and state machines AI. I still think anyone calling this AI in 2024 deserves to get clowned on. (And which I concede is not you).
