My concern is, of course, 3rd party programs that many of us have seen in games like Counter Strike. Are we going to have to concern ourselves with Aim Bots or other exploits/hacks?
What about the age old gold farmer? Will they have a place here or a need to be here? I certainly hope not.
I doubt it. The devs stated (multiple times) that they're implementing their own anti-cheat system. Plus, most of their weapons are projectile based, which means if you fire that sniper rifle with the reticule on someone, they can still dodge it (no instant damage).
As for gold farming, PvE drops mostly components and loot with a bit of cash, while PvP drops cash. I don't see how you can farm a game like GA, where it involves actively moving around and dodging stuff. If there's no need for gold farmers, they won't crop up, since they can't make any money off it.
