Considering all the problems with cheating in PvP on PC... Maybe it is time to put Crucible itself behind a pay-wall.

Trials of Osiris requires for play to own the current running expansion. And it surely does help to make it harder [b](I AM NOT SAYING IMPOSSIBLE!)[/b] for cheaters to ruin other peoples play. So what about making PvP in general Pay2Play again by requiring to own [b]ANY MAJOR DLC[/b] (not the latest) to be able to play it? Sure, we would take a hit on our player numbers if that would be done. But the quality would somewhat improve. You would only have to pay once to be able to play it. Trials on the other hand requires you to pay every year to be able to play it. Just want to bring up this topic for discussion. Maybe it is time to make the cut for the greater good. [b]Edit: I want to remind people that as it is right now, a cheater gets banned from regular PvP, makes a new Account and uses the same cheat software again on a fresh account without any barriers in place.[/b] With Crucible being locked behind a Paywall too, they would have to pay at least money before they can continue cheating, ultimatively costing them money every time after a ban, compared to having them roam around for free.

  • Pay walls have already shown they don't help in any way..... A cheater makes more money than they spend on making a new account with all dlc. Js

  • Cheating is a huge problem on console as well, it’s just that actual hacking only exists (99.99% of the time) on pc.

  • I'm a console player, and I view the cheating on PC as the inevitable cost of playing on PC [spoiler]Obviously kidding. Although, it is kind of funny that console costs around 1/10th of the cost of a PC yet has to deal with far less cheating[/spoiler]

      • The game has three core activities: Strikes Gambit Crucible Don't think they can't keep the game as "free to play" if 1/3 of there core game requires a major dlc ownership.

          I suggested this a while back. If it's linked to a payment method, much easier to keep them honest. Cos it's out of control at the moment.

        • You have the right idea, however, a population drop in a niche avenue of the game could potentially make it harder competition from the smaller player pool. Especially for the solo's.

        • Well I do believe the consensus is that PvP doesn’t make them money and that’s why it gets little attention. This could potentially solve that. I have no faith in bungie, just blind hope that diminishes each season.
