Roughly half of all web traffic is not human (Cloudflare bot traffic research). For games, the automated share concentrates exactly where money moves: login, lobby, store, and in-game economies..

## What do bots do to online games?

Automated abuse compounds quietly: economies inflate, accounts drain, and launch-day infrastructure buckles under non-human load.

### Economy inflation

Farming bots flood the market with farmed goods and crash item prices.

### Account takeover

Credential stuffing empties player inventories and generates support tickets at scale.

### Launch-day outages

Bot traffic hammers login and store endpoints exactly when real players show up.

## How does LobbyFort work?

Three steps between automated traffic and your business.

01 - EVALUATE

### Read every session

Client signals plus server-side behavior are scored across login, lobby, and store endpoints, with no game-client changes required.

02 - CLASSIFY

### Spot scripted clients

Headless clients, emulator farms, and scripted play patterns are separated from real players, even across rotating IPs.

03 - FILTER

### Act per policy

Challenge, shadow-ban, or block through automated rules tuned with your live-ops team, with full audit trails.

## What changes when the bots are gone?

Clean traffic compounds.

* Stable in-game economies and item prices
* Fewer account-takeover tickets and refunds
* Bot share tracked by endpoint, region, and patch cycle
* Login and store infrastructure protected on launch day

## Frequently asked questions

### What is LobbyFort?

LobbyFort is a bot-detection and enforcement service for online games. It monitors login, lobby, and store traffic, identifies scripted clients and bot farms, and applies your enforcement policy automatically.

### Does LobbyFort require a game-client patch?

No. Detection runs on client signals already present plus server-side behavior. Your shipped client stays untouched and players notice nothing.

### Can it stop credential stuffing?

Yes. Login endpoints get continuous scoring that catches stuffing patterns: impossible travel, velocity anomalies, and scripted retry behavior get blocked before accounts drain.

### Will it catch farming bots without banning real players?

Behavioral models weigh full session patterns rather than single signals, which keeps false positives near zero. Edge cases route to your live-ops review queue instead of auto-bans.

### How does it help on launch day?

Bot traffic is filtered at the edge before it reaches login and store services, so capacity goes to real players. Studios typically see launch-weekend tickets drop sharply.

### What reporting do we get?

Dashboards track bot share by endpoint, region, and patch cycle, so you can measure exactly what changed after every release and every rule update.
