Valve will allow Deadlock players to turn cheaters into frogs – what it looks like

Valve’s hero shooter Deadlock, which is still at the stage of closed alpha testing, continues to be improved: a fresh update added another hero to the game and the first iteration of the anti-cheat system.

If an unscrupulous player is detected, the system will prompt session participants to choose whether to block the offender immediately or turn him into a frog until the end of the match, and only then ban him.

The ability to turn cheaters into a toad will be available to Deadlock users “a couple of days” after the update is released. What it will look like was demonstrated by the player PogGu on his microblog.

At launch, the Deadlock anti-cheat will have conservative settings for detecting unscrupulous players, since Valve is already working on a new, more comprehensive version of the system.

Former Valve employee Burton Johnsey revealed that he once worked on a similar system for Counter-Strike – with additional help, players could turn cheaters into chickens.

Among other things, the update added a custom match mode, an option to report cheaters and other functions, improved performance, once again adjusted the balance and fixed a number of bugs.

Deadlock does not have a release date yet, but there is a page on Steam that is designed in violation of the site’s rules. Battles take place in a 6v6 format on a four-line MOBA-style map.
