The problem is that any coded solution to the underlying issues would also be exploited as well. I have come to the acceptance that every type of PVP or actually competition in general requires good ethics from the players and if they aren’t there, the cheaters, the exploiters and the generally toxic playstyle dominates while those with ethics simply move on. You can have all the rules in the world but if a player is just concerned about winning at all costs and not within the realm of fair gameplay, its a done deal and the competition decays into just a sad excuse of roleplaying the very worst in people.

If this game isn’t about competitive play (and lets be clear it isn’t since no one seems to give a rats behind over KPD or any other metric to determine if they are getting better in the game and any attempt to ask for this the community lashes back as ‘CE isn’t that type of game’) , then the game is about having fun with others. If others are not having fun, the purpose of the game is ruined. So what has happened to CE (at least from the PS perspective) is about 100 or so toxic players have dominated the entire playstyle on officials and rotate around the servers spreading their type of play. It works for them and they are all happy but everyone else isn’t and they left.
