The information is still coming from a chater's computer and there is no way to force that information to be accurate.
Why doesn't it ask? Well, because there is nothing stopping the client from just lying. So the answer to the question of why it doesn't kick for having more than 120 skill point is simply that the game never asks. If it did, we'd we able to inspect players directly instead of having go through external website that read your steam profile. Okay, so we can't stop people from speccing above 120, why not kick them automatically if they do? Well the best case scenario this would only work if the host isn't a cheater (if they were, they'd just disable that) but even that isn't so simple.įirstly, the game doesn't ask for your build when you join a game or at any point in the game. The only way to stop it would be an always on connection that calls home to a server and checks to make sure you are behaving. That program can be changed, and there is nothing Overkill could do about that. Payday 2 is not an always on multiplayer, so the rules and restrictions are all local in the program. VAC works because it has remote server the user doesn't have access to.įor this specific example, the only way for Overkill to prevent you from allocating more than 120 skill points is to program the game to not allow it. There is no secure 'anchor', everything is on the computers of the player, and it's impossible to secure a user's computer. The issue is that the game is single player and peer-to-peer multiplayer.
