You have to region lock Brazil, China, Southeast Asia in general, and Russia at a bare minimum if you want to have even a tiny chance of not having your game ruined by hacks and cheats.
“Fair play” is not a universal principle. It is mostly isolated to a handful of white peoples and cultures plus maybe Japan? The majority of people on earth do not understand or observe fair play.
Thats because Truth is one of the higest values in Christianity. Jesus emphasizes this by saying "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life." Conversely, Satan's chief attribute in the Bible is that he is a liar.
That is also part of what makes the Ten Commandments different. Most of the commandments are no terribly unique. Many societies had prohibitions against theft, murder, and adultery. However, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." was not seen in other societies' moral codes.
Yeah if we can do it nationally, China has a HUGE cheat mentality that's not just in gaming but EVERY one of their sports.
Should let the Koreans and Japanese play the rest of the world though. We'll never know how truly good we are until we beat them in a RTS or fighting game competition.
Not just gaming and sports. They "cheat" on everything. They cut corners when making concrete for building foundations, so their buildings fall down. They fake the data for maintenance records for things like elevators and escalators, so people are killed by them constantly. They dig used chilli oil out of the garbage and reuse it to serve to customers at their restaurants, so people get sick. They fake their data when testing air and water quality, so their air and water are toxic. They paint dirt and rocks around their cities green instead of planting and maintaining grass and other flora. They fish the oceans to extinction instead of doing it in a sustainable way...
They are a country of con men, and are a cancer on this planet. The only silver lining to their behavior is that their military will always be incapable of being a real threat since none of their weapons will ever be reliable.
Check out serpentza's youtube channel if you want to have your mind blown by how terrible the people in that country are.
Yeah put it this way if the choice was to spend the night in a building abandoned for years in Japan or Europe or spend the night in a new build in China, you couldn't pay me enough money to not chose the abandoned building!
The points you gave are just some of the reasons I call China a glass cannon in that if they try to invade Taiwan, if they can repel the first assault there's a good chance they already win as China can't follow up after.

That's just how communism "works" to use the word loosely. It's always just a bunch of useful idiots and sycophants lying until the wheels fall off, because anyone who actually tried to fix anything got sent to the gulags.
It's not just their games and sports. It's a deep part of their culture. Just look at the cultivation genre. In it, a very common trope is just popping a pill for extra power. It is the same for real life for them. That's why they buy pills of powdered rhino penis or tinctures of bristlecone pine. Any method that they think will give them more power, they will use regardless the consequences.
Furthermore, culturally, they believe that if you can cheat at something and get away with it, you'd be stupid not to, and that the person/people you cheated deserved it because they didn't do it too.
I love the game Hunt: Showdown but it is so fucking frustrating to play at times.
The dumbass devs at Crytek allow people to just pick any region they want, and the dumbasses also have a huge trading window somewhere between 800-1000ms. You can flat out watch a dude fall over dead and then suddenly die 1 full second after he did because of their shitty systems.
Couple that with their report system requiring you to send video evidence to them directly via email, it's not worth the fucking hassle. Idk why I still play, beyond the fact that it's an amazing game when you're not matched with cheaters of a code or region jumping sort
Yeah, I don’t want to be pitted against the bug people trying to sweat their way through the designated 3 hours a day of gaming they are allowed until their social credit declines
Hunt Showdown for example. They infest the West Coast servers during their peak time. For about half the hours of the day it's impossible to play that game without running into at least two aimbotters in a 12 person lobby. Typically more than two.
Personally I advocate for region locking. The Chinese are a plague on the internet and should be forced to deal with each other.

The Chinese straight up tell their children, "If you're not cheating, you're not trying."
There's something to be said for the "there is only winning" philosophy of life.

^ It seems at least 100% of Indians cheat during their exams

Yup I'll agree to all of that.

The lowest trust society.
Heck, there was that highschool where the parents rioted because the teachers banned cheating.
Shitty newssite but you get the gist. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/china/10132391/Riot-after-Chinese-teachers-try-to-stop-pupils-cheating.html

The worst is why they allow region hopping. Because the fucking streamers want it.
Several of the more popular streamers are from different continents, and have an entirely too heavy weight with the devs.
Howdy, fellow bayou denizen.

Ahaha just saw this comment after leaving you a comment on your original. Yeah, hunt is ass.
