Not sure what to call this

So, I was playing the new Apocalypse game mode by myself, right? I made it to round 21 when a random player named Eee spawned in. And it was weird. I hadn’t shared the code with anyone else, so only I could play, but Eee spawned in for some reason. He had a Halloween skin and the Candy Trail on. I have included a screenshot below so you can see what I saw. It also functioned like a normal player, grabbing a Stonebuster and helping me by eliminating zombies. Not sure how this is possible so I’m reporting it as a bug. I don’t think this should be possible because I never gave them the code.

All it is is some guy who randomly guessed a code and joined your game

Wow look it’s a code guesser.

Code guessers try tons of codes to join a random game. If you don’t want them in your game, kick them. If people keep rejoining, then re-host a new game.

hmm either hacker or troller using random codes to get in games

I guess that makes the most sense logically, but that’s like one in a trillion odds of just “guessing” the right code.

You can automate it by having a bot try hundreds of codes a minute.

Idk…their movement seemed kind of bot-like. Like running into walls and getting stuck on them, firing at nothing, and then just running in straight up circles.

well then must be a bot

Yeah, I think that’s what I will chalk this up to.

It probably isn’t a bot, it could just be that the code guesser was new at the game or was pretending to be a bot.

but wait… if its a bot then that must mean the bot situation could be getting worse

It happens to me A LOT, but it STILL gives me the creeps. I feel for you, @I_Am_Bigfoot

Yeah, this is a pretty good issue, and it’s scary how fast bots can guess codes, or it could just be luck and they spammed the keyboard until they had a code in mind. It’s honestly not surprising.

To fix this issue, Team Gimkit would have to implement a cooldown of 10 seconds for trying a code.

I KNOW, right! Its super creepy. Like, this is a single player game, its just me and no one else, and someone randomly joins, I have no idea who they are, and I clearly didn’t give them the code so its like what the heck?

What does that have to do with it? Oh, wait…It’s a code cracker…

It’s most likely just some random guy / bot that just happened to get the right code to your game by spamming. If it were truly a real threat, The video would have been taken down as per request of Josh.

It’s like what happened to blooket; people uploaded hacks and Blooket took them down. Who’s to say Gimkit won’t do the same?
