Is there a captcha in our future? - Snarg - 02-05-2015

IF there is any truth to the alleged leaked patch notes, what do you think the, 'New system to prevent bot attacks', is going to bring?

IMHO, it will possibly be a captcha system. For those who have not yet seen it, this was posted on Supercells sub-Reddit about an hour ago:

Really a captcha system would be the only way to stop botters since the Devs make it look just as if a player did the attack. Not sure they'll do this though because I'd imagine this would be annoying/irritate a lot more people then just botters.
I guess we'll have to see though.

No need captcha, just block play COC in Bluestack Sad

Pretty sure this isn't possible since Bluestacks makes the game believe it's actually being played on an Android defense. Although I may be wrong...

I honestly think they are trying to block the "sandbox attack" feature on the xmodgames.

Blocking bot attacks isnt possible at all.
Specially this one... the answer is simple.. the game is click dependent so is everything you do in it.. everything the bot does is just a series of clicks and scans... block the clicks no one will ever play coc... as for that captcha I just dont see that happening

It seems that detecting if an app is running on BlueStacks is much easier than I thought:

Code:
/**
* Returns true if device is Android port to x86
*/
public static boolean isx86Port()
{
    String kernelVersion = System.getProperty("os.version");
    if(kernelVersion != null && kernelVersion.contains("x86")) // for BlueStacks returns "2.6.38-android-x86+"
        return true;
    return false;
}

That little snippet of code could easily shut down anyone running CoC on BlueStacks.
