What you really have to worry about is the other 20-30% of the population that in a heartbeat would download an already made cheat if they think that they could get away with it and if you let cheating slide that number will increase over time. Yes, you can write a cheat but lets face it, most of the internet are not that skilled, you are in a small percentage of the population and honestly there is no much people can do about you beyond banning an account when you get found out. Why do you think other games hand out bans to entire clans in tournaments when one person gets caught cheating? It's to show a zero tolerance policy and to make to clear to the rest of the population what the rules are.
The moment you let someone get away with cheating more people are going to try it because simple fact, if people think they can get away with it they will do it. Simple fact is a small minority of people cheat, any game can have a hack in it but it's the reaction of the devs is the issue. RockerFox 3 April 2015 at you can write a cheat but the real question is that if you or someone who caught you posted a screenshot of a hack in Warthunder support and and gave them proof that you were cheating would you be able to get away with it? My honest bet is no, it's not so much of the issue that people can cheat, it's the fact that people cheat, get caught cheating and nothing is done about it. you might have doomed the game even further. it kinda throws people over the edge if they will use cheats or not. you make these posts, tell people that even reported cheaters arnt getting banned. I somewhere think that your posts about these cheats arnt working either Rita. i dont care anymore, neither does wargaming.
I gave up on the world of games a long time ago, so im also a frequent mod abuser. they dont ban people who use cheats? then they are giving permission for them. any game that has team damage is telling you that its allowed to hurt friendlies. wargaming allows cheats in the game, then they are giving permission for their use.
it wouldnt end with world of tanks, ofcourse it continues with ANOTHER game that allows modding. You seriously thought that when a game allows modding, there wouldnt be any cheats for it? a game can be in alpha as far as people care, there will still be cheats for it.
