Captcha

So I heard that now, when you try to log in, there is sometimes captcha appearing in gameforge client.

I haven't experienced it myself yet, so I have some questions to those who did:

What are the circumstances in order to trigger captcha? Is it random or deterministic?

Is the captcha server-side or client-side? Can you log-in without completing it?
Is it beind sent as answer to post request during auth or something?

Is there way to bypass it?


edit okay, I managed to finally get captcha. Here's how its look like:
You send json post request to spark.gameforge.com/api/v1/auth/thin/sessions with following fields:
identity, password, locale, gfLang, platformGameId, blackbox, gameEnvironmentId, autoGameAccountCreation

blackbox is some kind of long, probably encoded data. didn't figure out how to decode it yet.

after sending such post request, we are welcome by server with 409 response error code.

then there are 2 requests to pixelzirkus, both with 2 cookies: __cfduid and pc_idt, after which we get our images to solve.
After solving the image we are sending response json and request to api/v1/aauth/thin/sessions (this time without gameEnvironmentId) again, which now ends in code 201.

Is this only happening when you connect to another gameforge account or when you're trying to connect to the game ?

It appears definitely when you connect to another gameforge account.
it may appear even if you write incorrect username/password.
Haven't experienced it when relogging between accounts on same gf account.

do you think it is doable by caching the token we get after solving captcha?

Wasn't able to trigger it - instead I got a temporary IP ban (from changing GF Accounts too much, tried with 25 Gf Accounts). xD

How exactly did you trigger it? When does it appear?

It is possible also to trigger it in the browser, try to use some kind of popular vpn/proxy inside browser and it should appear first try.

bump since captcha seems to be back.

Got temp ip ban but no captcha lol

You can't force it now I think (except for obviously changing ip and trying to get in on website), it is the way it works, at least for me:
I'm getting captcha on every account everytime I try to log in, then there is 30-60 minutes without captcha on the given account (but captcha still shows when I log alts for buffs, single time for every account) then it shows again after 30-60 minutes of not playing.

Feels like their client is barely working with all those ip bans, captchas and black windows that prevent you from relloging lol.
