Dreadlored Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 So...I was in a Novarre coast and I play a carnage marauder, with the point in "Unbound" utility. So as most of you are aware, that means i can move around the map with a pretty good amount of speed/mobility. I sure wish people would learn about other classes and their abilities because I did get a good guffaw from my belly when I got accused of using a speed hack.. I have never cheated in this game, nor will I ever, However I do love my class. Has anyone else have some good accusatory stories about their style of gameplay?

Romeugues Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if a substantial number of players have been accused of speed hacking atleast once, due to either saltyness, noobness or perhaps some server lag type situation that made it look like you got from one point to another extremely quickly.

Kirpputori Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Has anyone else have some good accusatory stories about their style of gameplay? Once i was on Novare, one of the offnodes. Had a 1v1 (sin v sin) right before his hardstun i shrouded, then proceeded to wreck him. He accused me of hacking because his hard stun didn't work. To which i responded that i used shroud. He said: "shroud doesn't work like that" "reported" then he ignored me. Feelsbadman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadlored Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 LOL, that is too funny.. I would think that a simple read of the ability would clear that mystery up for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's people who don't understand all the class mechanics and even WZ mechanics. I've been accused of it after I've run through the WZ speed buff But people should still remember that the speed hack is being used. The problem is so many classes now have a speed ability / utility, that it's often difficult to spot them unless they have the setting to high and it's really obvious. The ones getting away with it are the hardest to spot, they have the settings really low. It takes a good eye and good understanding of class abilities to be able to spot them.

merovejec Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Yup, Snipers have it similar, we were up against a Sniper from the top 10 on TRE in ranked and all he did was kite! He was running around like crazy, rolling, Losing etc, he did a great job actually but since the rest of his team sucked they lost. The problem was, I was on my Sentinel and most of the times i couldnt target him, since due to his speed on my screen he was entering the walls even and i couldnt leap to him. So in other words, he was too fast for the game but it certainly was not cheating. Snipers have increased speed too and the rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmbuddah Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I wont usually accuse someone unless I know 100% they are cheating. Like the people that sit outside your spawn in 4v4s in stealth right as the match starts, or the people that have the ball in huttball and nearly score before you even drop down out of spawn. Even then you have people that will defend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolixe Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Getting out of spawn used to be possible with phase walk. At least for Sins it was. Idk about the sorc version but it does persist through rounds (which is dumb, btw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make a character look just like one of the companions, same class as the companion and everything. Then if your name is say Joe Blow have them create a guild called <Joe Blow's Companion>. Then queue together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't help but laugh in my chair..ugh.. my response to him was "you shouldn't have been standing where I could leap to you FOOL..I PITY YOU" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissingaiur Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Out of the 10k+ PvP matches I have played in this game over two servers I haven't once seen someone speed hack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verfallen Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Out of the 10k+ PvP matches I have played in this game over two servers I haven't once seen someone speed hack. Think I might have seen one today on JC, but i'm not 100% sure. Gunnery Commando running around at what looked to be about 50%-60% speed increase in fight (slightly faster than sprint) without Hydraulic Override (or hold the line in this case) on. At any rate he moved a lot longer than what HtL can last, and at slightly higher speed than HtL can move (looked like a sniper with the Seek cover utility, maybe a bit faster), and there is no other skill or utilties for commandos to move at those speed. No sentinel close either to give him Transcendence. Its hard to be 100% sure since it can be just a bit of server lag on my part, and it was a relatively short spotting time (hence I won't say any name) but I did note it to myself and I'll check if I see the player again how he moves around.

Sangrar Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Yeah I see people accusing the other side of hacking from time to time, I've only ever seen it legitimately happen once. The rest of the time I am on a team that, for instance, constantly abandons nodes or is badly coordinated so much that we lose badly and a player or two can't fathom any other reasons for how we could have lost like that.

TrixxieTriss Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Surprisingly I saw my first speed hacker in a long time today. Played for 4 hours and saw them in my second Void star. It was a Mara, and before you say Predation every 30secs, it wasn't that. They only had one Mara on the team. The person had constant speed that was even faster than Predation with utilities and they were near double the speed of my Sorc when in had speed run active. Then when they popped Predation the speed increased again to the point that they lapped me going around a pilar I was trying to LoS around to get away from them with my speed run. If I wasn't so pissed off, it might have been amusing to sit back and watch. But I'm so over hackers now and they all deserve to be castrated as they obviously don't use their balls to play fairly, so why do they need them.

Ruhun Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if a substantial number of players have been accused of speed hacking atleast once, due to either saltyness, noobness or perhaps some server lag type situation that made it look like you got from one point to another extremely quickly. I've been experiencing quite a bit of rubber banding and input lag today, so people look like they are teleporting or the game says they are out of reach when I am right in their face. This is with full bars too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a real issue. In other games, if players lag out, they remain stationary. In this game they are literally able to blink around the map if they got connection issues. Its an incredible pain in the *** if youre chasing down a healer and he vanishes and 2 secs later he pops up on the other end of the field.

It's very similar to lag switching if they are the ones lagging, but it looks different if you are the one lagging. If they are vanishing and reappearing, it's a switch or them have some incredibly weird lag, if they are running on the spot and rubber banding it is you lagging. ** disclaimer, there are exceptions to these basic examples, but I can't be bothered writing another essay on them ** Edited January 8, 2017 by TrixxieTriss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darknestknight Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Well not quite a speed hack but hutball I see so many ops or scoundrels using roll and basically the game not registering it properly or something and they basically look like they are having a seizure then appear 30 Meters away. Favourite one was I was 1v1 with a sage on my operative, he tried to jump on a rock with the kolto station and fell in, I couldn't get any abilities off on him and he was healing himself, I tried to use the holotraverse, went through the rock, through the floor fell for about 15 seconds and then died. I then almost died in real life of laughter. Poor sage was stuck there till the end of the match 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suddenly stand somewhere else when i reach them. And then a second later, i teleport to their location as my charge realises he was standing somewhere else allready when i charged him. High latency of players is just managed pretty badly in this game. It affects everybody instead of just the guy having it. Like i said, in WoW when i lag out, the game stops recording where i am and just leaves me attackable in the place, when i reconnect, it puts me back to the last conversed location between my computer and the gameserver. This works way better for everybody and doesnt cause this "warping". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
