Market Bots
-
This is a joke, something so simple just gets swept under the rug..
-
At what point do we speculate it’s sds just killing margins to eliminate the flipping market as much as possible?
-
@Pigsooie-Nation_MLBTS I've been wondering the same and potentially worse. Back in 2021, EA got in hot water over an employee selling high end cards for cash in FIFA. Feel free to google this.
-
There was a twitter post from a creator this morning showing a macro running a system that was “exclusively selling dupe items.” You’re a fool to believe they aren’t ravaging the market making millions…. If you run the margin down to a certain point where the bot won’t tail anymore and buy them down but you then run the risk of margins sliding further and having several of a now worthless item.
-
@Pigsooie-Nation_MLBTS 100% they do not want people flipping. Which is why they implemented the 20 card limit. Flipping = less people shoveling them actual cash for stubbs.

Hey folks,
The team is aware of this and looking into it.
To clear up any confusion, yes, bots break ToS.

Thank you for pulling me into this thread, I recently started working on some anti-bot strategies.
Personally, I would avoid reCAPTCHA as I believe it would negatively affect honest users...
I am confident we can mitigate this issue, but we are surely against a phenomenon that continues to gain momentum.I encourage you submit investigation tips to my DMs to help gather information on 3rd parties like CENSORED.

Thank you for the reply. I can try doing some screen recordings to show the instantaneous nature of the bots at work in the market.
Also, I would edit out the X reference. We dont need to be giving tips for more market manipulation lol

I’ve noticed the bots aren’t smart enough to relist when I cancel orders. So you can force them to take a loss but eventually they will win because I’m wasting my time.

Maybe if you guys were a little more transparent on pretty much everything, users wouldn't get pissed of so much. Your communication with the community is horrible. The only time you talk to us is when you're dropping new content. Destiny did it right with their "This Week In Destiny" blog that went through current issues etc.

@Wolfski0412_PSN Had the same thought re: SDS trying to discourage flipping and push people to buy stubs instead.
-
@Pigsooie-Nation_MLBTS Ive been at that point since the game dropped
-
This issue has been getting incrementally worse for at least 3 years now, it's nice SDS acknowledged it but I don't have high hopes of a quick solution.
-
@Wolfski0412_PSN they cant even fix the game from freezing while managing our team.
Just incredible
