@Oliver230230230_PSN

Thank you. I was hoping to get some feedback during the time the new filter was on, now it's turned off again; We'll see what happened at the next iteration.

reCAPTCHA

Has been turned off for the day! Reassessing parameters and strategies...

Howdy,

This thread is dedicated exclusively to the health status of the Market, I want to hear if the measures are impacting and healing the in-game economy.

Do not post your App issues here, use the appropriate thread for that:

Howdy,

I know recent changes are creating intermittent access issues for some legitimate user of the App;

Please reply to this thread, and I will try to help FIFO.

This is Marketplace-access, only.

@Senorcheff_PSN I am not sure what response you are referring to

Ok, that makes more sense. You have a 0.0 score and 47 attempts, we might want to try the website for a bit..

@nhacia88_MLBTS

I am honestly quite confused by the fact that you've never logged in from the app
There is literally no trace of you on the companion app

@yanksthebest_PSN brilliant idea!

• iOS: Touch and hold the app → Remove App → Delete App.
• Android: Touch and hold the app → Uninstall → Confirm.

@PsylockeSmythe_XBL

Can you confirm that right after the error message you tried again and it worked?
With a score of 0.8 you would amply pass the gate

@SiberiaTigerCub_PSN

I granted you a PASS, you should be good.
You have logged 13 consecutive (?) reCAPTCHA failures today...

Howdy,

At the moment, this is our best - and likely only - option for restoring fairness to the Marketplace while granting access from the App.

reCAPTCHA, combined with the other safeguards introduced this year, is clearly having an effect. Since this afternoon, we’ve recorded:

• 79,941 invalid requests
• 4,598 allowed requests
• 236 rejected requests

Approximately 99% of rejected assessments come from devices that cannot produce a valid assessment; those devices are consequently blocked from the marketplace. The impact on the Marketplace economy should become visible fairly quickly.

Invalid responses are almost certainly coming from devices we do not want accessing the App. However, a legitimate user can occasionally receive a rejected assessment. Repeatedly retrying after a rejection may be interpreted negatively by reCAPTCHA and further affect the device’s assessment.

The score is not based simply on how quickly orders are placed or canceled. It is calculated from a broad combination of signals.

If you receive a rejection, I suggest:

• Temporarily using the website to give your device’s reCAPTCHA reputation time to recover.
• Searching for how to improve my reCAPTCHA score on a mobile device for additional guidance.

We have a vast numbers of parameter that we can continue to adjust to make this work as best as possible.

Thanks for sticking around and for being patient and supportive!

@ModernMiracleSM_MLBTS

You should try from the website and return to the app a bit later

@ArcPrime126_XBL you should be fine now

@DrBear100_PSN

Doctor,

you have a reCAPTCHA pass attached your account, you should be enjoying flipping while everyone is here suffering..

And one was provided for @fokkenxcross_nsw too

@FokkenXCross_NSW iOS/Android? VPN? Other details?

Howdy,

we are back to testing the Community Market. As usual, you're invited to provide your feedback!

The new strategy has been deployed 1:15 pm Pacific and might take a few hours to fully impact the market as traffic gets flushed out and sessions are rebuilt!

Thank you!

@Oliver230230230_PSN

Y filter is off

Howdy,

as soon as we get to a point where the implementation is stable and reasonable we can surely come up with 'best practices' to use the marketplace safely and happily!

I am sorry, this thread is now a little confusing!

Google's reCAPTCHA v3 for mobile apps is an invisible, background security tool that scores user behavior to block bots without showing puzzles or pop-ups.

• Runs in the Background: It watches how users interact with your app passively, without interrupting them.
• Provides a Score: It gives your app a score from 0.0 (likely a bot) to 1.0 (likely a human) based on device and behavioral signals.

reCAPTCHA is disabled again, as I tune the parameters and notifications.

One thing is sure, everyone using the Companion App will have to work to improve their reCAPTCHA score, since that's a 3rd party service for integrity assessment.

@DrBear100_PSN

reCAPTCHA did you dirty... You're 0.01 off the passing score ... 22h comes from 49 (failed?) attempts. I will give you a pass

@Grapejuice3989_XBL

do we need to review your stats?

App Create Buy Order Count xx,xxx
App Create Sell Order Count xx,xxx
App Cancel Order Count xxx,xxx

Yea, sometimes it's easier to find than others. Sometimes, if you right-click on an image, it will let you copy the image URL.

Howdy,

Thank you for the feedback, it's precious when it originates from the power users.

There is no need to hide the fact that the "ultimate filter" is actually reCaptcha V3 - we decided that the strongest proof of integrity was the last step of this battle.

The numbers are golden:

Last 24 hours: 

5,159 pass 
653 block 
219,003 invalid

This work is not done, but combining and refining reCaptcha and the other measures we have in place, will eventually heal the market.

Back to the whiteboard now, to fine-tune this.
