Unlimited supplies

  • Thought I'd share an observation. Not sure if this is a cheat scenario or not. Our sloop was in a fight with another duo, who to their credit were very good shots. We returned some good fire back but started to run out of supplies so headed for an island. A galleon was moored there and the duo sloop began attacking it as well, not taking a break while we scurried for supplies to return to battle. Not once did I see them snatch supplies. Anyway the battle between us and the now galleon who were aggravated at the attacker had started. The galleon battered them severely as we put hits in too but this sloop would not sink nor relent, continuously sweeping past the island and shooting back. I would have gotten resources about three times over and virtually emptied the island before the galleon started to say "how are these guys still firing, surely they are running out of supplies"... I decided to board them so swam out and hitched a ride on their ship. Killing one while the other jumped off the boat. Went downstairs to find no supplies at all on the ship. So how did they keep the thing up? Is this an exploit/cheat because I'm failing to see how it could be otherwise. This was the same boat that not long before was in a 4 way battle with other sloops so surely it's resources were stretched.

    I'd love to be able to dig out logs on this kinda scenario.

  • @yarrnor Hmm, sounds a bit suss.

    Perhaps they had only just ran out of supplies when you boarded them?

  • @admiral-rrrsole I would have thought so but after this I got blown off by a barrage of cannon fire from the galleon. Yet did it sink?

    I don't know, you're the one telling this story. lol

    I'll assume it didn't sink. :o)

  • I have heard of such an exploit before

  • @admiral-rrrsole hahaha yeah. It didnt :) that was when the galleon fled and we gave up too. I can not prove it but it was just so damn suspicious to me. Ive heard reports of cheats in the past but I didn't buy it as I had never come across it, now I'm not so sure.

  • @ohendogo Any idea of how it was done? Perhaps Rare should know via a bug report ticket.

  • @ohendogo I'm assuming rare knows?

  • @yarrnor Mate, you should really record all game sessions. I do just for this type of reason, suspected cheats and bug reports.

    If the session appeared clean just delete it otherwise upload the proof and report it to Rare with a link to the video.

    Video upload host or even use YouTube but don't post the link here on the forums. It's against forum policy.

    Rare support ticket

  • @admiral-rrrsole I think I will. Thanks.

  • @yarrnor No worries mate.

    Fair winds and happy sailing. :o)
