Valve’s Deadlock Game Facing Cheat Issues

Cheating Issues Emerge in Valve’s New Game Deadlock

New videos have been released for Deadlock, the online multiplayer hero-focused shooter action game currently in development by Valve. These videos reveal how cheaters are affecting the game, even though it has not yet been officially released.

Deadlock Continues to Be Developed

Having been in closed beta for a while and open only to invited players, various gamers have shared different footage on the internet from the testing phase of Deadlock. Although no definite release date has been set, reports have emerged that some users exploited cheats to disrupt the game’s balance during the beta process.

Emergence of Cheaters

A user on Reddit shared a video containing various evidence related to the entry of cheaters into the game. In this video, it was observed that cheaters were using a aimbot software to aim extremely quickly and accurately. Additionally, there are reports of other types of cheats being used, such as some players being able to shoot through walls.

Valve’s Previous Games and Development Process

The last game released by Valve was Counter-Strike 2, announced last year. The company had focused primarily on virtual reality (VR) games for several years before this game. However, it has also been reported that Valve has developed many games in recent years, only for these projects to be canceled afterward.

Community Reactions

While the developers of Deadlock state that they are continuing efforts to address the cheating issue, the reactions from players are quite mixed. Some players express concerns that these cheating incidents during the beta phase could negatively impact the future of the game.

In this context, as Deadlock is still in the development phase, there is great anticipation regarding how Valve will approach solving these issues.
