Cheating a Lucrative Business in Online Games
According to published reports, those companies providing cheats for online games such as Battlefield 4 are making millions a year. People play monthly fees for ways to cheat, ruining the gameplay for those who do not use aimbots or other technologies. Players, obviously with insecurities about their inability to play, pay these amounts for terminate and stay resident programs. One person in the article said their company has over a million dollars of revenue.
Titanfall, the latest game to be swarmed with these cheats, is losing the battle, as is Battlefield 4 despite technology in both games used to try and detect such cheating. But, as long as the profit is there, the war continues between developers and cheaters.
