Roblox Captcha broken

Reproduction Steps

1) Log out of the Roblox account
2) Try logging back in
3) Try solving the human verification captcha which appears to be impossible

Device Info

  • User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/109.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
  • Platform Type: PC
  • Device Type: Computer

Expected Behavior

I expected to log back in the account as I solve the captcha

Actual Behavior

When the steps are followed, sometimes, the user is displayed with an impossible captcha under a small time frame and/or x number of questions. This locks this user out of the account.

Workaround

Sometimes, users are able to “reset” their password and then enter back. This process however, is very limited and unexpected and is not a clear workaround.

I am also having serious issues with the captcha.
I am doing the captcha correctly however it is saying I am wrong, making it impossible to log in.
This has been happening since yesterday,

No issues for me, but It might be a bug
So you should wait for it to get fixed

Another image of the captcha not actually giving me any valid options

What about the bottom middle one ?
6+1+2 = 9… and we don’t see the last dice but i guess it is 5.
As all other options aren’t valid, logicaly this is the only one you can choose.

It looked like a 3 to me but it’s hella unclear.
But anyways its beside the point, even if I got it right the captcha will still keep saying I’m wrong as seen in the video

I haven’t gotten any captchas in the past months.

I hate when Roblox makes you go through math class just to play.

It should be noted that today Roblox has had failures, but it happens to me sometimes (especially when using another account).

The most stressful thing about these challenges is that in the end they end up incorrect. :roll_eyes:

This is some sort of new security measure that effectively locks people out of their account. It seemingly only happens on select accounts that have 2FA enabled or something.

It is giving the “dice_slow_14_revised” captcha, but you only get 30 seconds despite it being a slow captcha. Since there are usually 5 waves, you get under 1 second to add up 4 dice which is not humanly possible if you are trying to solve the captchas with accuracy.
