Xbox One NA - Bots? Still? You know ESO on consoles does exist right

ThoraxtheDark

Came across this today. I'm sure there are Bots on PC and Ps4 as well. But come on now, this seems a bit let go.

Inb4 lock for naming and shaming.

You know what is really strange?
There is a bot in the exact same place in Alikir with the clannfears on PS4.
Just saw them yesterday.

Why exactly is naming and shaming against the rules? I think you deserve to be called out if you either cheat or purposefully exploit for your own gain. Are we not supposed to make these idiots known so we can all pitch in and give them their slice of the cheat pie? Especially in the case of bots. Why should we not be allowed to take pictures of someone named adsgzdfgsdib12254342 as their username? Are we going to hurt their feelings?

What, are they going to cry to ZoS about being harassed by players? LOL

TequilaFire

Agreed, how do you name and shame a script?

Why are there still loading screen issues after 3 years? Who knows. It's in the ToS you agreed to the terms of, and undoubtedly didnt read (me either), so it is what it is.

My guess is naming and shaming has the chance of getting someone harassed in game, that theoretically could be innocent considering the litany of bugs that exist in this game.

I'm at work so I can't watch the video but I was in Al'kir yesterday and saw some "bots" killing mubcrabs over and over. They had the usual random names and low levels you see in such players. I don't know if bots truly run on consoles, more likely a single player running multiple consoles.

That's said ZOS does appear to boot these players when they get enough complaints. I went to Shattered Grove in Auridon about 3 weeks ago and saw mass farming of wolves and bears. Went by there last night and saw they were all gone.

As Mr. Smith from the Matrix said..

"Humans are a virus. They destroy and deplete resources without any contribution to the environment. Once every resource is used up in an area, you just move to and infect another area until the same happens again."

Ironic, considering these are bots

Last time I was in Sentinel... I saw the bots at the wayshrine... With their clanfears spamming HA at the watshrine... it was quite surreal...

yah i reported a bunch of them last night, if they actually cared they would send a GM out their to shut them all down.

The video linked shows player names.. that's definitely gotten several threads locked.

Of course they know eso is on console, there's a new patch coming out tomorrow, silly.

Think he tried to say bots on console.
And yes that would be hard, first of you need an hacked console, then you need an software like cheat engine designed to run on the hacked console. Second option would be to use an pc who managed to pretend to be an console
No causal gamers would not do this.

An way simpler method would be to use an control with macros, this would be way more limited as in casting AoE regularly.

Not really. You don't need to hack a "console". All you need is a hacked/fake controller (which is dam easy to do) and a HDMI signal reader (nothing hacky here, totally legit). The rest works the same way as PC bots. Case closed.

Thanks for the feedback ZOS, guess i won't bother making video evidence anymore? i dont know..

Spoken like a true bot

It's a constant behavior issues botters belong to.these large guilds they farm steal materials take the materials sell them.throughout their guild shops ... Very noticeable go to.s guild shops look up raw materials you see same gamertag or psn pc name there same material in stacks and this player is on many different guilds ... They know their cheating and they know that Zen ain't doing anything about it otherwise they would stop ...
Microshif now here as we know about the deal with microsoft and zen Bethesda agreement ... Best to contact microsoft they can track there ip address and block it from there and brick their system.. All u have to do father the infol.about the player describe what he or she's doing screenshots would be awesome as well ... Send a report to microsoft pray the one exploits the game.or hacking cheating gets there system bricked up.blocked ...
