Explain Sentinel

[SanCookie]

Hey there

Just a small question:
How can Sentinel be an "anti"cheat if it bans inconnent players but NOT people who casually fly from island to island (saw this TODAY, 31/01/2018)? It doesn't make any sense at all.
Looks like Sentinel is getting worse instead of "improving every day" like every staff tries to say, but when people ask to unban then because the anicheat was wrong, they say only CrazyManJR has access to anticheat related things, so how do staff even know for sure if the anticheat is improving? Just hire more than one developer for the anticheat, everyone sees that one developer isn't enough.

Some days ago I saw a hacker.

Do you know what I did? I invited him to a party. Yes. We were playing. He hacked a lot. He was everytime with kill-aura, anti-KB and fly hacks. After 30 minutes (30!) the sentinel banned him. The sentinel is very slow. Let's do something to improve it.

We can't do anything, staff just ignores this kind of message with a copy paste message, the anti cheat is getting very bad

Having multiple developers coding an anti-cheat is like creating a drawing with two. It will end up being a mess, as everyone has different ideas of how it should be. Just because you saw one cheaters -and not fifteen like six months ago- doesn't mean Sentinel has worsened.

Also, in case you aren't aware, numerous hacked clients are being made to specifically circumvent Sentinel. Sentinel catching cheaters can be seen as a cat and mouse game-- hacked clients are made so Sentinel doesn't find them, and the anti-cheat is being updated to detect those clients in particular.

Finally, keep in mind that all cheaters you see are the few Sentinel didn't catch. Sentinel has banned a few thousand players last week, and has overall banned over 600 000 players, from which only a small amount were actually false banned.

Honestly, I'm sick of seeing this. When you say "improve Sentinel", you won't notice any different in what is being done, as Sentinel is, in fact, constantly improving, just like the hacked clients. You aren't being ignored, however, we won't do anything with your comments as we are already doing whatever you say.

You don't have to act toxic to fit in.

I don't even act, but whatever, I'm not in the mood to reply, lock it, I request it
