Big Concern: Hackers

[sylphaen]

So.... Did we get any confirmation that capitalized i and lower-case L will not look similar ?

They apparently have a similar issue in SC2:

I believe Red Orchestra 2 used both Valve Anti-Cheat and Punkbuster simultaneously. I'm unsure whether any benefits came of that decision, but I can see people taking a similar approach in future. Why restrict yourself to one method of detection?

Also, Battlefield are currently attempting to recruit what they call an "Anti Cheat Administrator"; someone whose role is to basically coordinate the investigation into supposed cheaters. As far as I'm aware they're the first to look for someone to fulfil this role, and I suspect many large-scale multiplayer developers will aim to establish similar roles as well.
