Hackers who want to be unbanned should be forced to play 100 hours as a chicken. - Rust

Make them earn back our trust in chicken form.

this should be the system for every video game

[QUOTE=Tripper3k;50348102]Make them earn back our trust in chicken form.[/QUOTE] and what happens when they leave the game open for 100 hours?

[QUOTE=crazzyman228;50348317]and what happens when they leave the game open for 100 hours?[/QUOTE] afk for 5 minutes, gets kicked. that chicken man better be moving!

[QUOTE=mrknifey;50348331]afk for 5 minutes, gets kicked. that chicken man better be moving![/QUOTE] Okay, fair point but I don't think they deserve any form of chance, they'll find a way around it and then back to being toxic and ruining the community. (More than it can be already) :smug:

nah nah nah. the chicken has 3 things it can do. move, jump and cluck. press m1 to cluck. can't craft, can't attack, can't do anything other than cluck and be hunted for food. in all honesty, as much as it would be funny to see a player trapped as a food source, it's not worth giving them ANY access to the game.

Careful. That chicken will find a way to noclip through walls, or follow players through airlocks. Some players may be surprised that a chicken followed them into their house, think it is a cute bug, and not kill the chicken. That's when the fun begins. The chicken then follows players throughout their base, noting the locations of loot rooms and tool cupboards. The chicken could also secretly eat all the food, or peck a sleeping player to death. One way or the other, THE HACKERS WILL FIND A WAY!!

You'll just create a market for paid chicken hacks.

Yup and then they have chicken hacks. First running after a chicken who you thought was naked and frightened. Then he turns around, takes his m249 and you have to run like hell to escape from this little piece of death.

When you look at it that way, cheaters are paying two separate stupidity taxes in order to continue to play the game in easy mode and prove they have no skill or self-esteem.

You are hurting their feelings. :(

Joking aside, I actually think this is a good idea! Not 100 hours mind, but say 20-50... and they have to be constantly active. It would weed out the people who are genuinely sorry and want to play legit from then on. OR play as a very slow walking zombie?

Some people will fight to the DEATH for their right to keep paying stupidity taxes.

I know this isn't a serious idea, but for it to work the game would need to be in a better state. After all, a truly crafty and desperate cheater could just glitch into a rock where they are less likely to be found and then use a bot/macro/etc to simulate keystrokes while they do other things to chip away at time in their sentence without being kicked for being inactive.

Dam chicken cannibals!

Nope ... they should stay as chickens forever but I believe they will still find a way to give the chicken some guns and shit lmao

Chickens would turn into paid chiken informers that players would send in to clip through walls to find players loot LOL

i propose that once a hacker is discovered, they should not be notified, nor kicked. Instead they should be, no matter which server they choose, redirected to another server that is strictly for hackers. It will be the 'Australia' of servers where we send all the criminals. Then the hackers will have to deal with a-holes(themselves) all day long.

My god are some of you guys hackers looking for easy punishment ? I mean how is allowing someone to play as a chicken or be directed to a server full of hackers a deterrent ? If those are worse case punishments and I had the chance to continue to play or redeem myself I would probably hack too. I mean, if you are currently caught you pretty much have to pay £15 to play again so how many hackers would keep doing that vs playing as a chicken for 100 hrs or playing on a server for hackers (the latter would probably be more fun that the game is now).

pixel, i think you are missing the point with redirection. they can play, but they are restricted to hacker servers with other hackers. they are less likely to bother normal players because they can do whatever they want there. and if they get caught on a new device (because i say HWID the fuckers) they get the same treatment.

[QUOTE=0ni;50349121]You'll just create a market for paid chicken hacks.[/QUOTE] That would be fucking hilarious. Then when all has been patched some gaming tabloid is going to go "Garry crashes underground chicken hack market - More at 11!"

All who agree are cheaters.

However, EAC/VAC does not make your copy of Rust unusable, you can still play on insecure servers that have no anticheat active, just like the rest of the cheaters.

Anyone who figured out that they were being redirected to a server they weren't trying to connect to (this would be TRIVIAL to figure out) who wanted to continue cheating/playing on official servers would buy another copy of Rust, meaning it's almost exactly the same thing as what's already happening, your idea just tries to be sneaky while the standard practice is for EAC to just walk up and go "BANNED, BITCH."

Their character should be forced to be green in game. Their inventory can only hold 3 items. Then everyone would know the green guys are hackers and they would have a shitty time playing.
