Just playing an open game against three players. Two allied and one of them had a hack and I think the other player did too. What is the go with this? It ruins the game. I mean I am already disadvantaged by being shit, what more, 2 v 1 and they get hacks?
This is BS.
who had the hacks and what were they?
its ling and them....
and i gues nothing cant be done aobut it...
dreamer is teaching them all that crap...
Just for reference, if anyone is genuinely thinking of throwing in with the players that hack then you simply wont be respected as a player at all, and people will and should sling potty mouth at you. Its probably much more sensible to post their IP and start a new game. The more of an issue people let it become, the more these cocks can convince themselves that they are part of the community, which they are most certainly not
What hacks are they using?
i dont know much about hacks or if they are being used hood, but i have noticed strange bits of lag at odd points in the game. like theres a speed hack but when used it makes the game lag, maybe like the kind of lag that is beneficial to the user and shaken off as lag by the non hacking player. and maybe like the speed hack it can be toggled in real time.
i was just in a game where it seems as the pills were not shooting the enemy at a mad rate. its like the pill stayed in a neutral firing rate and still died at 20 shots.
in my mind its like a reverse speed hack. we are used to someone wanting to increase the rate of fire for your tank only, but what if they are just reversing this. it would still put lag on the game for other users but not the guy running the program to slow it down, thus very easy to take down a pill and save armor, all by slowing your enemy down to a resynk or an almost unplayable lag. this would also be easy to hide.
once again, im not sure if this kind of hack exist but if it did i feel its the end of this game for anyone that wants a straight game.
kinda scary a few assholes with some know how about hacking 101 can completely destroy an online game that an already small community enjoys.
shame. :(
leave it to min to shine a bit of hope lol.
but one speed hacker ip

why people cheat to win I'll never know, it's sad really.
i've seen a couple people doing it on open games and its pretty bizarre to see.
next time I catch one I'll write down his name and backtrace his ip so he'll be banned.
a way of detecing speedhackers automatically would SO ownage. in fact their fun would be ruined permanently
