Zapatista & FRIENDS will never own up to cheating and actually have the audacity to make absurd lies like your computer is acting up because it is slow. First of all, I use top of the line technology available at my local university and will guarantee that this computer is 10x better then yours. Secondly, I can tell when someone is moving three times faster then everyone else. In other games that is called speed hacking.
The speed hack that exists has a virus embedded into it so its only really doing harm to them. If someone speed hacks, leave and rejoin later. Better yet, wait until they leave, or go do something else.
Although if it really pisses you off you can always email or get in contact with the player that runs the bot, show the ip and proof so that the player can be banned. I'm pretty sure though that Derami and Zapatista don't hack though.
I also know its no coincidence when a player is on one side of the map and is busy and you destroy some pills on the other side and that person moves their tank there immediately to try to steal them from you even though they are not finished doing what they were doing on their side of the map and should not know anything about the randomly picked map.
Yep this is called "Pillview". Next time you have pills press ctl+k and set a key. Press is to see your pill's view. Pretty self explanatory.
I have come to find out that this is called Radars. Two people (one was Nothing) demonstrated their use of radars yesterday by purposely moving to a certain area of the forest I was hiding in.
There is no such thing as a radar. There is a borg/brain (which ever it is) that does have a radar, but its not kept up to date as you have to be in the area to see exactly what is going on.
As for the forest thing, make sure you are far enough in. You have to be at least 2 trees in to become invisible. (correct me if im wrong)
I've also seen these cheaters become indestructible in deep sea or after being shot with two full loads of ammo while trying to escape carrying a pill. It's pretty sad when these people ruin the game for you and have the nerve to trash talk you and exclude you from having a chance to win by forcing you to ally with noobs.
(1) Ive seen that before but trust me there is no such cheat. Its a simple network issue that hasn't been ironed out.
(2) Ive seen you trash talk your share
(3) I wouldn't be so haste to not consider yourself a noob....
The trash talking gets so old and then they accuse you of mass allying. This is so extremely infuriating because they do the exact same thing which makes them --- hypocrites. Also I don't have the patience to try allying the smaller team over and over again because if any of those cheaters are on that team they won't accept you. And I dont care if you have 10 noobies as allies, just one noob can destroy your chances of winning and cause an immediate loss.
(1) Ive seen you trash talk your share
(2) Maybe ask through a message if someone needs a ally rather then spam requesting (might be why they don't, but sucking might be as well)
(3) So now a one (1) noob is better then 3 players and is good enough to take out a team? If you look at someone like looloo, who is a complete noob, I dont think you have to worry about one more player
(4) I dont know even why im bothering going through this, I just scolled down and almost puked that someone would put so much energy into *that*
All and all I think that we can all come to the conclusion that there is no basic etiquette in opens. Its a war for power. This kind of shit doesn't happen in real life. ("Wait dude stop! This is so unfair, you have like 5 more ally's then me") Just live with it and figure something out.
"What happens in opens, stay in opens" ;)
