Now to drive you even crazier, unscrupulous players are using the AI to cheat on Rocket League.
If there’s anything infuriating in an online game, it’s cheaters. But on Rocket League a new genre is taking more and more space with the use of a bot which is trained by AI. Enough to drive you crazy when meeting a player who you think is just very good.
The AI to dominate you all
The phenomenon of using machine learning to teach a program how to play Rocket League is nothing new, as we could discover in a report from our colleagues from gaming pc. Indeed, one could discover that trained robots opposed each other for a certain time during local matches. But the real novelty is that players are using versions of the AI-trained Nexto bot to directly cheat in the motorsport game’s ranked competitive modes. All while pretending to be human. You already see the problem as big as a house. This totally distorts the world rankings and therefore makes all results potentially suspect.
As a result, studio Pysonix has confirmed that it believes a small number of gamers are using the Nexto bot to cheat, and is currently actively investigating solutions. In short, the problem is taken very seriously and we should see a solution pointing the tip of his nose in the weeks to come, the time to clean up.
So, after AI attacking art, now AI is also coming to ruin and attack video games.
Have you had the misfortune to come across a bot within Rocket League ? Obviously still according to PC Gamer, the bot besides being very good could recognize himself in his ability to keep the ball without having to perform aerial movements to do so.
