    I am getting sick and tried of hackers in this game and currently they are all over the place. I haven't gone a day recently without running into one and it's so draining when all your hard work goes out the window. I am someone that runs events for my discord with tons and tons of players and I have tons of hundreds of hours in this game so I am no stranger to pvp. We are seeing invincibility, instant ship repair, instant ship turning, instant archer up, teleporting both the players and the boat. The only thing I known to be able to even sink these hackers are Wearyballs while we pump them full of holes. I had a server with 3 galleons tonight with all 3 of us pumping them full of holes and the players just gliding across our ships just slashing us and killing full crews. Please please look into [mod edited] and his friends because this person just ruined our whole event I was running. I have removed the audio from these clips because we were cursing up a storm. I am almost at the point of abandoning this game because I'm so sick and tired of hackers that can't be killed sucking the joy of it.

    Look, I hope you don’t take this the wrong way but, I don’t think either of the videos you posted were of hacks. I mean the one dude was just using the emote bug. I think you are mistaking a difference in skill as people hacking.

    @kerrigankitty Yes, there are hackers in this game, but not many. The first video is a bug, the sloop crew are not hacking. It doesn’t benefit them.
    The second video is an emote glitch and, unless that guy is solo, he would not know. If you believe someone is hacking, submit a support ticket.

    @drewdigon Trust me I get it as a pirate legend because people call me a hacker all the time when sinking them and sure they are not the best clips but when someone teleports a row boat with a keg right in front of some other players among my group it's hard to hide. My point i am getting across is why is it so bad? I play this game every day and I have ran into them everyday this week without fail. Is it the steam edition doesn't have injection protection? is people abusing the family share on steam? This is a huge problem for other games too so I would understand that. A better cheat detection is needed because someone has figured out a way around the current one if there is even one. I am assuming it is TruePlay which I might as well abandon the game I guess.
