Possible Cheat/Hack?
Posted: 24 Apr 2011, 06:21
Yesterday I decided to do a FFA match with a couple of my friends, and one of them brought in someone that no one knew, not even the person who brought him (stupid, yes - and he got chewed out for it).
The settings for this map were:
3v1 (All of us versus "that one guy").
High Power Levels.
No scavengers.
Distance fog.
And took place on the latest verison of War of Sand Dunes. viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7605
I had base 3, and my friends has bases 1 and 2. The "other guy" had base 0.
Approximately five minutes into the game, one of my friends had lost connection and left the match, leaving it as 2v1. I was scouting for oil at the time. It was about 10 minutes when I reached the bottom of the map to make only one oil derrick, when I was attacked by three Mini-Rocket Array Python Hovers and was instantly killed, both my derrick and my truck.
I didn't think this was possible.
I asked how he got those units so fast, and his reply was that he has the tech-tree completely memorized.
I didn't want to deal with the possibility of a hacker although I was still skeptical of whether or not he was cheating, so I faked a crash.
But now I'm wondering for real, is this possible cheating?
I want to know if anyone is able to recreate this incident by any means necessary, to manage to create three Mini-Rocket Array Python Hovers in less than ten minutes on this map when at base zero. I had tried this myself and was unsuccessful, for I had only just finished researching Cobra at ten minutes.
