Roblox Just ̶W̶a̶s̶t̶e̶d̶ Invested $11.6 Million

I want to talk to you guys about an issue that's been on my mind lately okay I can't get this out of my head I can't stop thinking about it I'm talking of course about the rolimon's traffic graph for Apocalypse Rising which is very special and I'll explain why if you look at the daily concurrent players over the past three years you can see that it has been dying slowly gradually it is getting closer and closer to zero active players and you can blame this on a number of reasons you could say the game's getting boring the gameplay Loop is getting old the game hasn't been updated and so on and you would be wrong you would be wrong if that's what you thought it was because I know the real reason that this game is dying and it's because of hackers that's right this game is probably the number one most exploited most hacked most cheated in-game on the entire Roblox platform and the entire history of the company why I have no [ __ ] clue there is just something about this game that makes hacking it and ruining people's funds so appealing to script kitties that it's dying and it's very sad because I used to have a lot of fun playing this game back in the day with my friends we would all get on Discord and be in a big group and we would just wreak havoc on servers until inevitably some [ __ ] child some little kid some little [ __ ] would load up synapse and blow up everyone just ruining everybody's fun just to be a little [ __ ] foreign from my inventory it's sad it's very sad however if you look right here right at this little spot right here you'll notice very briefly for maybe a week or two there was a spike in traffic for this game which I think can be directly attributed to Roblox implementing a new anti-cheat but first I want to give props to the sponsor of this video War Thunder which is a free to play military action game with over 2 000 historically accurate land sea and air vehicles spanning an entire century players fight in maps from around the globe combining different types of vehicles in battle with graphics and sound effects that are true to life I've been a player of War Thunder since August of last year so believe me when I say there's not a single Roblox game that comes close to what War Thunder has to offer the catalog of vehicles spans 10 different nations fully customizable with component upgrades crew members and cosmetics the developers are constantly adding heaps of new content and graphical improvements like the recent L'Oreal update which added an entire fleet of French naval units new gameplay mechanics and the famous BTR 80 armored personnel carrier just to name a few things with new content constantly being added even veteran players have something to come back to if you download War Thunder from the link below is a new player or you're returning after six months you'll receive a hundred thousand silver Lions a week of renting legendary German ground units three permanent premium Vehicles XP boosts a week of premium and more check out the link below and enjoy the rest of the video cheating has been a problem on Roblox since the very beginning I remember back in 2008 when I first joined Roblox a million years ago downloading cheat engine joining Tycoon games and modifying my money to be 999 9999999 these were the good old days when really the worst thing a cheater would typically do is uh give themselves infinite money and sometimes if you're nice to them they would give you infinite money as well but over time as Roblox tried and failed to patch cheat engine people started working on new ways to cheat involving injecting dlls and eventually injecting Scripts now script injection on Roblox is a very very powerful tool if you have the ability to inject a script into a Roblox game you more or less have the same Powers as the developer of the game itself this means you can do anything if you know how to program and you know how to inject scripts into a Roblox game you basically become a God I have a friend who is very good at this he was like a wizard he was like Merlin being able to to concoct these spells out of just lines of text honestly that's what I would compare it to he's like a wizard casting spells he's like Shadow wizard money game just anything anything he wanted to do he could do and because he was so good at programming not only could he take scripts that other people wrote but he can make his own a lot of people were really really good at making programs to be injected in the Roblox games there was a script on Roblox called the van script I don't know how many of you know what the van script is but basically you join a game you load in your script and it gives you a little menu where you put in someone's username and then you click a button and a van will appear out of nowhere drive up to them it says free candy on this side it'll open its door a clown will pull this person's Avatar in and then the door will close and the van will drive away some variants of this actually had the van drive a short distance and it would throw the player's corpse out the door and then drive off there was a script that people would use called called A wrote script and this is where stuff really got bad okay when Roblox realized they had an issue that they had to solve the script is uh exactly what it sounds like and people were not only doing this but they were sharing the methods that they used to do this with other people it got to the point where when the admins of Roblox were trying to do live streams to audiences of thousands of children people were joining their games and written them live on air on Roblox that's really when they started to take notice oh and there was a news article that came out where a furious mother of a young girl was complaining that her daughter had joined a family-friendly Roblox game only for her Avatar to be gang Road on Roblox it was a very bad look if I were to guess I would say Roblox was not very happy about that you can't do this type of stuff in most other games you can't just like pull up in fortnite and pull people into a van you can't be playing [ __ ] Battlefield 2048 and start whooping someone you know what I mean not everyone used exploits for evil some people actually use this stuff for good there is a guy on YouTube named citizen with hundreds of thousands of subscribers who got famous for going into condo games and using What's called the grab knife script and the grab knife script lets you grab a player hold a knife to their throat and then slit their jugular before throwing them on the ground for them to bleed to death he went to Club Iris which is like an online dater paradise and he spawned in a construction vehicle and he used it to physically rip apart the map he had like a virus script where he would cough on people and they would turn pale like they had tuberculosis and then they would go around and cough on other people he had a script where he would pull out a katana and like stab people through the heart with it he had one that would turn him into like a Dragon Ball Z character and you would fly around and [ __ ] atomize people with these like disintegration spells and stuff what Roblox did was they made one of the most drastic changes to the way that their website and their platform worked by making every single game on the platform have what's called filtering enabled by turning all of these games over to filtering enabled Roblox made it so hacking for the most part stopped at work the problem was people started to figure out that a lot of games gave people permission to do stuff that could be exploited there were filtering enabled exploits they would actually take pieces of the map and rearrange them to create things like weapons or Monsters or special abilities there were some people who created free models that had scripts hidden within them that could only be activated using hacks and these are called back doors Paris Hilton the celebrity came out with a sponsored event on Roblox called Paris World welcome to Fashion Week we are live inside beautiful Paris World here in Roblox for the first annual Paris World fashion show they used a lot of free models that had back doors installed in them which allowed people to do some not very nice things like uh spawning flags from Germany not this German flag the German flag from the 1940s they also disabled the chat filter so they could say whatever they wanted I think one guy even found out how to Nuke the entire server the hacking got to be such a problem that within hours of releasing the game Roblox shut down the place they content deleted the description and it didn't go back up until months later when they tried to get rid of all the back doors I feel like this was really the last straw for Roblox because less than a year later they announced that they were purchasing a company called bifron for 11.6 million dollars so Roblox was really invested in removing hackers not just stopping people from hacking but actually Banning people and it worked people that were cheating were caught they were banned and their programs didn't work anymore which is why apocalypse Rising has a spike right here however it is a spike because the Microsoft version as well as their mobile versions of Roblox didn't have this feature and so all people had to do was instead of loading up normal Roblox they just load up the windows store version or they use an emulator to load up the mobile version basically all of the hard work all the 11.6 million dollars that they spent was completely put to waste I have friends that joined apoc really recently and really nothing's changed sometimes you'll encounter a server that's so broken guns don't even work I have a video on my channel of me playing a server and then suddenly all of the guns in the game just broke one's break [Music] yeah using their god-like powers they broke the engine to the point where the laws of thermodynamics don't work anymore and gunpowder won't ignite and the only people who could kill were people with melee weapons and so I found a group of three people only one of them had a sword and the other two were basically empty-handed thank you [Music] I was chasing him around like an Ax Murderer like I was the [ __ ] guy from The Shining [Music] [Music] and then I I was like chopping this guy's arm off through the window someone made fan art of this scene and it's beautiful I'm like my ax is like breaking through the window of his car you're next you're next and you see like his dead teammates on the background earnest thank you [Music]
