If you fishy a quest has been modified, delight bash not play it, oregon halt playing it immediately.”

Unfortunately, Capcom is presently incapable to find whether a circumstantial quest had been modified, but the developer is moving connected implementing "additional countermeasures” successful aboriginal updates to observe players who modified their games, and hopefully pass different players not to articulation them and get themselves implicated.

While Capcom has antecedently deleted unrealistic times from Wilds’ Challenge Quest leaderboards, the developer hasn’t said whether the players liable for them had been banned. From the looks of things, the process of identifying cheaters whitethorn not beryllium arsenic straightforward arsenic it is successful different games.
