Tencent "Crossing the Fire" helped crack the DMA plug-in case, how can overseas players play the national service?

In recent years, online cheating in online games has emerged one after another, seriously undermining the fairness of the game and the game experience of players. As a popular FPS game with many players, Cross the Line of Fire (hereinafter referred to as CF) has also been committed to fighting against plug-ins. Recently, CF, a game owned by Tencent, assisted the police in cracking the first case of DMA plug-ins, which attracted widespread attention in the game circle. DMA plug-ins use special software and hardware tools to directly access computer memory, read and modify game data, giving players an unfair advantage and seriously undermining the fairness of the game.

DMA plug-in: strong concealment and great harm

DMA, the full name of Direct Memory Access (Direct Memory Access), was originally a high-speed data transmission technology. However, criminals used DMA technology to develop a new type of plug-in program, which bypasses the game security mechanism by directly accessing the computer memory and realizes cheating functions such as perspective and self-aiming. Compared with traditional plug-ins, DMA plug-ins are more hidden and difficult to detect and intercept, causing great damage to the fairness of the game.

Tencent Game Security Center: Strike hard and crack down on plug-ins

Tencent's game security team has been conducting technical research on DMA plug-ins since the end of 2020, and has established device hardware library data to interfere with DMA plug-ins and ban accounts through technical means. As of June 2024, CF has banned 19,000 cheating accounts using DMA plug-ins, and actively shut down abnormal devices of 63,000 accounts.

The successful cracking of this case shows Tencent's determination to crack down on cheating in online games, and also provides valuable experience for other game companies. For the majority of CF players, this is undoubtedly good news, which means that the game environment will be more justice and fairness, and players can focus more on the game itself and enjoy pure competitive fun.

However, for overseas Chinese players, there are still some challenges to experience CF national service, such as high latency, packet loss, cards and other issues, which seriously affect the game experience. In order to solve these problems, overseas players need to use the game accelerator to unlock restrictions and play the national service.
