One of the biggest things that have yet to be even mentioned as a change for Heart of the Swarm is something being done to prevent hacks.
Maphack is very common on the ladder, and the report feature doesn't work very well. Just the fact that you have to give a link to the replay in question isn't mentioned anywhere, and shouldn't really be needed tbh.
With the same hacks working in HotS beta as in WoL, it seems like nothing will change. It's very annoying that we keep have to play against these cheaters, reporting for no use. It also makes ladder less viable as a practice method, and thus makes it harder for players without teams or practice partners to become good, and even go pro.
So my question is: is anything being done to prevent hacks in HotS? If so, what?
Other than that, thank you for an amazing game! SC2 is the best hobby I've ever had :)
