Plenty of people do, and they are all short sighted.
The games scope is too big to be done on PC. It would be hacked within hours.
Controls are not the the issue -- have KB/M. Graphics are kind of an issue, but we have PS4 client coming to fix that.
PC offers nothing aside from hacker problems. |

Its too bad hackers are such a problem on PC...
I wonder if a combination of dedicated servers, moderation, and account creation fees could keep hacking in check. Hacking can be dealt with. Planetside 2 had monstrous hacking problems in early days but that was because the devs didn't apply any effort in dealing with it. Once they got their act together hacking dried up and almost completely disappeared. Its not an unsolvable problem.
How would you feel if I told you that I was on skype with a clan of PS2 hackers right now? |

Is there a lot of hacking in eve?
I've not really heard of it being a problem.
If CCP can develop eve to not suffer constant hacking issues.. Why couldn't they develop dust to do the same?
Genuine question, I don't know anything about game development.
I once knew a man who hacked EVE as well.
I still have a video of him taking a joyride in someone else's Caracal.
But there are two reasons you don't see this as often.
1. Subscription games in which you are found guilty of hacking result in the loss of years worth of investment. It's therefore not really worth it unless you are part of an ISK/Gold selling RMT operation and can afford to sustain such losses.
2. FPS games in general have fairly simple hacks that can be used across many games. Disabling the textures on walls to make every surface translucent is very easy to program on any game and can give you an incredible advantage. It wouldn't help in something like EVE, but in Dust it would be incredibly useful. Aimbots also have thousands of variations that can be used to make them work correctly without actually changing client code. To get a useful advantage in EVE, you tend to have to alter the client or directly hack into the server itself -- both are much more difficult to do and attract attention far easier. |

I know there's hacking, sure, will always be in any game, its hard to fully stamp out client side aimbots and such. But its not rampant uncontrolled lunacy like it used to be, you can put a stop to 80-90% of you wish.
It only takes one person to reach the top, therefore it only takes one person to compromise the integrity of a game. |
