hourglass spawns and cheating

If you are absolutely sure that some one is cheating, and you consistently run into them, just keep recording and when you have undeniable proof, report it.

Not really anything us forum dwellers can do if a ticket isnt being accepted.

@locke5474677 said in hourglass spawns and cheating:

so i just went on a solohourglass fight after like 6h of PVE with infinite sups. i spawn south lagoon of whispers as soon as i reach the top my boat gets catapulted into the universe and was never seen again. i lost because i left the assigned area...

only positive thing is i didnt waste any more time cause i spawned into a guy who is a pretty obv cheater ive been fighting over and over again the last week. he is one of two cheaters ive been fighting a lot over the last week. one i reported with video evidence the other guy is not leaving his boat ever has like 500h and is the best cannonier ive ever seen, hitting max range chains etc, but his helming and decisions are bad, so its kinda hard to report. anyways id like to think there is a way to ban people like this just by pure mathematics, hes still around and he is cheating.

other than that the spawns for hourglass should be looked at, there are just some spawns putting you at a disadvantage right away, for sloops when there is a rock on your right so you cant turn right for example.

I want to see the clip. I've been to outer space in a rowboat before.

Yes yes, cheating sucks. But why did you queue for HG if you weren't giving away supplies? 😋😆

Since HG was put into the game cheaters have been rampant I see more use aimbot for cannons more than anything, rare says they are working on anticheat but that could be years before that's in the game for now try to keep your insanity

This Community Weekend I've been playing a lot of HG to finish Athena at 1,000 and the experience has been miserable.

Ignoring the absurd amount of Runners and Loose Farmers, I played about 20 hours in 2 days, in those 20 hours I have far outnumbered the number of cheaters I have encountered over the last 6 months without a doubt.

HG in this kind of events is totally unplayable, 2 out of 10 games are really games. If we can't use these days to grind levels, maybe it's time to increase the experience permanently, I don't feel like going through the same suffering to get the golden skeleton, the only reason I keep playing this game.

Still no anticheat, no solution to HG experience, no solution to people with 2.000 units of each resource abusing bugs and glitches.... but the important thing is to eliminate mechanics that have been here since day 1 and that don't harm the game experience 1% more than the damn cheaters and exploiters do.

Rare, you make even the most patient person lose faith in you.

@mrestiercol
Use VPN and change location, yes you get an awful ping but it's much more playable when 50% of your matches aren't the casual 1day Xbox-pass Olympic cannon shooters.

I managed to get 130 levels throughout 14 hours, simply by avoiding the cheaters.

Besides that, I feel like something has been done so far in terms of the anti-cheat. People no longer spawn kegs or teleport on your boat, I only meet the regular stuff like aimbot and speedladder.
