Guerrilla Games patrolling PSN for Killzone 3 cheaters

24 February 2011

With Killzone 3 already out Stateside and due to drop this later this week everywhere else, dev Guerrilla Games is locked, loaded, and ready to fire at anyone looking to spoil it for everybody else.

In an interview with CVG, producer Steven Ter Heide confirmed that the company is working “aggressively” with Sony to monitor online activity for anything untoward.

“The ability for one person to ruin people’s games is not a good prospect obviously, so we’re working with Sony on the moderation side,” he said. “We’re looking at people misbehaving, being able to follow reports against those so that’s all been taken care of – and we’re working with Sony to see, even more aggressively, what kind of things are happening.

“But at the same time we have to step up as developers and say, ‘OK what are the holes in our game, what is the data, can we analyse that and see where the problems might be?’

“We can look at the leaderboards and t#mce_temp_url#he stats that most people are playing with and say, ‘This doesn’t look right. Can we look into that and see what’s happening?’ That’s the reality now, we have to keep patching the game to make sure we keep getting one over the hackers.”

That’s right, kids. The cyberpolice are gonna backtrace you. Don’t do it.
