This incident became a small interlude. Although there weren't any further developments, it still made Chen Mo a little wary.
Hemi wasn't the biggest Overwatch streamer on Fish-Catching Streaming, and it didn't seem like there were any major problems, so Chen Mo didn't bother with it for now.
However, Chen Mo had saved all the data on the list of people suspected of cheating. As long as the Game Committee updated their technology, they should be able to find out if they were cheating or not.
…
A week later, the hacking incident finally subsided for the time being.
The Game Committee released an emergency patch for the country's FPS games, blocking most cheats from tampering with the game. Although it didn't solve the problem of cheats once and for all, this patch was like rain after a long drought for most of the players who had been eagerly waiting for it.
Obviously, not all high end cheats were banned, but all low end cheats were taken care of.
With the addition of manual checks and bans, the cheats in Wolf Soul and Fiery Assault were finally brought under control.
Of course, there were more cheats in these two games compared to Overwatch. After all, Overwatch was more roguish in terms of tactics.
But no matter what, Wolf Soul and Fiery Assault both suffered varying degrees of loss from the hacking incident. On the other hand, Overwatch managed to attract a wave of players, and at the same time, the image of Chen Mo cracking down on hacking was etched into the hearts of the people.
Other than that, the Game Committee also caught a few criminal gangs selling cheats on the internet, making the netizens clap their hands in glee.
…
Inside the experience store.
Chen Mo and Li Jingsi finished another round of Warcraft, this time Li Jingsi won.
"Not bad," praised Chen Mo.
Li Jingsi glanced at him, "When will you stop playing random races and play seriously with me?"
Chen Mo laughed, "I'm playing seriously. You were lucky this round, the treasure you got was amazing."
Li Jingsi looked at him, "By the way, many people suspected that Hemi on Fish-Catching Platform was cheating, what happened?"
"We didn't find anything." Said Chen Mo, "At least the Game Committee's patch and Overwatch's testing program didn't find anything. Also, I can't see much from the video. "
Li Jingsi thought for a moment and said, "So, even if he does have a cheat, it would be a very high-level cheat?"
Chen Mo nodded, "Yeah, I don't think it's appropriate to call it a cheat, it should be called black technology. However, this kind of thing can only be considered innocent. Before there is concrete evidence, you can't speak carelessly. "
"Understood." Li Jingsi thought for a bit and asked, "You're not planning on updating Warcraft?"
"Yeah, I'm not planning on updating it." Chen Mo nodded, "Warcraft is actually perfect for me. Whether it's the story, the CG, or the game's balance, they're all perfect. There's only so much game content, and there's nothing more to add. "
He paused and said, "Moreover, real-time strategy games are no longer mainstream. There are fewer and fewer players, and I have a new game to work on. I don't have that much energy."
Li Jingsi stretched her shoulders, "What a shame, I still like Warcraft the most."
Chen Mo comforted her, "It's not a big deal. At least the hardcore players of Warcraft are still playing it, and it's still the best RTS game in the world. RTS isn't like MOBAs, as long as there are twenty to thirty top players playing, the game will continue to be played. "
Li Jingsi nodded, "That's true. Although there are a lot of normal players, it doesn't really affect the players at the top of the ladder."
Li Jingsi suddenly thought of something, "By the way, speaking of top players, have you heard of a top player on the US server?"
Chen Mo was shocked, "US server? I'm not paying attention. "
Li Jingsi said, "His ID is called Origin. He seems to have destroyed every single player on the ladder, and every match ended extremely quickly. Pretty similar to when you were dominating the other servers. "
"Oh?"
Chen Mo was a bit surprised as there weren't many new players in Warcraft anymore. It was an RTS game that was released four years ago after all.
Of course, it wasn't just Warcraft. Most RTS games in the world weren't doing well, but Warcraft was now the best RTS game in the world. At least it still had a large group of core players.
Why would a young genius suddenly appear in a new game like this? That didn't make sense.
Moreover, according to Li Jingsi, this Origin had appeared out of nowhere, and it had been climbing the ladder with an undefeated record, reaching the top in a short period of time.
This was similar to when Chen Mo reached the top of the national server, causing a similar sensation.
Although there weren't many top players on the US server compared to the Korean and Chinese servers, there were still a few. It wasn't normal for Origin to be able to dominate the entire ladder just like Chen Mo did.
Chen Mo was able to do so because of his insane hand speed and reaction speed, as well as tactics that were several levels ahead of the rest of the world.
But what did Origin have?
Chen Mo lightly knocked on the table as he muttered the ID under his breath.
"Origin … Origin? That's an interesting ID, he might be a middle schooler. Do you have any footage of him? "
Li Jingsi nodded, "Yes, it's all over the Warcraft community now, I'll get you some footage."
It didn't take long before Li Jingsi found a few footage of Origin from the Warcraft player group.
Chen Mo copied the recording onto his computer and started watching the match.
Chen Mo had been busy with the Overwatch hack and didn't have time to pay attention to Warcraft. He had made so many games after all, it was impossible for him to know every single one of them.
One game.
Two games.
Three games.
Chen Mo watched the entire time without saying a word. Li Jingsi, on the other hand, watched from the side without saying a word.
Chen Mo furrowed his eyebrows after reading it all.
"What do you think?" asked Li Jingsi.
Chen Mo thought for a bit, "It's a bit weird. Isn't this guy's mechanics a little too good? "
Li Jingsi nodded, "Yeah, everyone thinks that his mechanics are pretty much the same as yours, especially his multi-tasking, it's almost flawless. Although some of the details aren't perfect, it's obvious that his mechanics are incredible. "
Chen Mo frowned, "There's no way someone like that would be a nobody before right?"
Li Jingsi nodded, "Everyone thinks that it's a smurf of some expert, but it's hard to say who. Moreover, he only plays Night Elves. "
Chen Mo thought for a bit, "Could it be Starlight from Korea? The Night Elves' playstyle is similar to Starlight's. "
