    Packet Sniffing.....

    http://na.square-enix.com/events/ffxi/t ... index.html

    (Open Question) How do you plan to deal with players who use packet sniffing?
    (Sage Sundi)
    If a player is using some type of packet sniffing tool they're still required to be present at the location to be able to do that like any other player, so at the moment we have no plans on pursuing to nullify this behaviour.

    We have big problem with this...

    Hello everyone. I'm Justav from shiva server <---sexxa :D but anyway we have a ls on my server "Shiva" that shall remain nameless but use a "Packet Sniffer" which is claiming all of the big HNM's such as Nidhogg, King Behemoth, King Artho, not really big but drops speed belt, /drool, ect... Now SE seems to not be doing anything about it cause we have no "hard" evidence. Now I've seen the videos of the "bot" in action against Nidhogg and it makes NO provoke motion or uses any type of ability...now i dunno but i think thats "hard" evidence if i do say so myself...i mean what more do u need it doesnt do anything and it claims it...Odd o.O...wonder how much it cost them to cheat?

    (Open Question) Will FINAL FANTASY XI support an official RMT system?
    (Sage Sundi)
    We understand that other MMORPGs have taken a step to openly trade virtual items for real money. However for FINAL FANTASY XI, we have a End User License Agreement that clearly prohibits any RMT activities. Also, the game isn't designed to adapt to such system and therefore we have no plans to make RMT official to the game. We believe that the competition has embraced this system to eliminate the RMT organizations, but we'll take our stance by continuing to fight RMT.



    yeah fucking right

    Sure if they get rid of RMTing I will come back to the game........I'm pretty sure I don't need to go out and buy a copy of the game ever again.

    We also believe that from a role-playing aspect it doesn't appeal as much, I mean a husky male voice coming out from a Mithra or a Tarutaru or a high pitched voice from a Galka would be quite strange.
    LOL!

    That Shiva LS has purchased from someone a program that allows them to claim HNM now against everyone, the samething happened on Remora. I do believe people on Remora have friends on Shiva and might have the same bot as them. I wonder if the new patch they implemented the new bots are rendered useless?

    its a link to a lot of video's and documentation/accusations concerning "bots" between some JP LSs.

  14. #14

    I like how everyone that doesn't win a claim on something, automatically accuses the other LS of using bots/whatever.

    disappears right before it spawns and claims it, seems kinda strange to me.

    EDIT: i can't read japanese so i really don't know whats going on in that video, but it does look weird.

    No kidding that video frightens me, pretty decent proof of something though...but he could always be on a 4ms fiber connection in Japan too.

    We've had JP's voke and have Fafnir asleep before he even pops to NA players before. Can't even suggest they are cheating, that's just latency plain and simple. 97 people in Aery and all 3 main NA LS's there saw the exact same thing...lol

    If you read the site, the site pritty much explains that the guy thinks the botters just turn of their fog effect so the monster dose not fade in like it does on our screens, also other lighting effects so the mob was drawn faster. Without the fade-in on the monster he is free to claim it. Fade only lasts a few moments but still is considerable time. Also explains that the provoke/chi-blast animation dose not apper on the character when this hack was used, but on the PS2 version you did see all the animations correctly.

    I know everyone is thinking about trying it, why not right. Well don't bother trying this, JP still will win claim because of ping, this site is about JP vs JP botting, where ping is not a issue. The site did suggest they might be chinese but I doubt ping will be too different for them either.
