This last night playing showed some very, very odd occurences ...

I saw a Jaegermech fire both of his AC20´s 3 times in under 6 seconds, killing all in all 3 people ... in these 6 seconds

I saw people hit 3-5 guys in the head consecutive while jumpjetting and being focusfired at ...

I was OVERTAKEN by a Centurion wielding 2(!) LargeLasers and 2 SRM6´s running in a Spider with 137.7 kp/h away from him ...

PGI ... time to do something

I've seen some pretty amazing shooting, high DPI mice can be quite a bonus in this game.

The Ninja Centurion.. well I can only assume he was riding another light mech of some sort. Or you were slower then 137 at the time.

2 Medium lasers and 2 SRM6 @ 132 kph is believable.

Are you saying people have managed to cheat with an aimbot or super loadout maker?

Start recording every match.
http://obsproject.com/ <--- setup gamecapture
I setup start to Ctrl-W so I just tap ctrl when starting the match and going forwards.

Funny thing is that I got better FPS ingame when recording, not sure about latest patch as I stopped playing to see if they ever get things sorted.

I've seen that speed thing once before. Figure'd it was a glitch as the mech could only move in one direction and moved itself off the map.

What really caught our attention was that it was going faster than our Jenner at the time - and it was a Highlander.

Only saw it once, so I just think of it as an odd glitch. Never witnessed it again.

Out of thousands of matches played, I only know for certain that I was aim-botted against one time. That's an okay ratio in my book. I did report that enemy to support@ though.

As you don't have a stopwatch, it was maybe 8sec
shoot - 3,8sec (elite/fast-fire) - shoot 3,8 sec = 3 shots in under 8 sec
When the targets were nearly crippled, totally possible to kill them in three salvoes

Also, CN9-AL: 2 LL in the Arms and 2 SRM6... Where is the problem. If it was a CN9-A, you should mention it in your post...

I saw some funny things as well.

I was shot outside the cave on Forest while under the natural Bridgeport our side. The enemy was at the far end entrance or just inside the cave. His shots went through the rock etc. Damaged on the front, wasn't friendly fire as no one else was in front of me. From my view point, the wall of rock shot me.

Saw a mech teleport a good 800+ meters. Was spectating and saw a mech run into a bridge support on canyon only to see him now appear much further down the river.

Build is bad? Bugs being explioted? Cheating? Who knows... Just odd.

Happened to me. Image froze, but the animations kept playing, 1 minute later I was 800 m away from my last position. Tend to blame it on packet loss.

Ye i was stomped by highlander once when runing jenner on the field. Guy was faster than my 132kph jenner so could not outmanuver him and i was runing like forest gump...

[Fulcrom Kerensky]

I've witnessed an aimbotter who was on my team (I was spectating him). I reported him and have not seen him in game since then.

@amros: It was a Centurion, I was going 137.7kp/h at any time except JJ´ing, plus dont tell me crap about mice, I know what modern hardware is capable of (the loadout I gave is no bollocks neither)

@demos: I have pretty accurate timefeeling which stems from being musician and having done semi-professional CS:S stuff, so nope again on this account. Plus the AC20 targets where fresh @ ~90-99%armor.

@Fulcrom: You must have gotten real lucky there, as I have made several inquiries to them of which not one has been answered up to now.

Just witnessed a guy that shot 2AC5 as quick as AC2´s and he even instakilled one of my TS-mates on the first (!) hit (which might have been luckily hitting the cockpit but still should NOT have taken out my mate) .

Let me tell you something else ... it´s so easy in this game to manipulate, you would NOT believe it.

Plus, yea I have Fraps running, and started to develop the habit of keeping fishy videos to analyze them later but am really reluctant to upload them as I record them in half-size (base size is 1920x1080) at a cap of 90FPS.

So, my claims are still not refuted to my satisfaction and I am still calling for a quick reaction from PGI to have a damn sharp look into their "Cheatprotection" without further compromising higher latency gamers or finally giving us those EU servers they blubbered about somewhere in the past so at least HSR and latency-jittering can be ruled out as the culprits .

Two Ulatra AC-5 on chain fire is just shy the rate of an AC-2.

[B0oN]

@Unbound: The lock said "2xAC5" in a VTR ... nothing to interpret there, quiaff ?

[Unbound Inferno]

You were spectating then?

Chainfire is o.5 seconds, so two quick shots then a delay, unless its a macro for 0.75 seconds it seems continuous for the AC-5's 1.5 sec recharge.

That's pretty close together honestly.

-One second gap aint pretty close together.
-I had the lock from my mate which was stupidly going in full bravado although I told him that seismic showed 4 blobs there, one moving towards us.
-As I said, 2AC5 firing in grouped mode as I was so close behind I could see them fire both and my mate fell after the first shot with being at ~85% health, no cockpit hits so far.

I immediately called bollocks there and then .

I play alot during the day.

Sometimes I will jump on in the evenings and drop some 4 or 8 mans with my clan mates.

And holy hell batman, is it full of cheaters.

During the day, while pugging, I am a pretty good pilot. At night, I can barely even eke out a win. There's mechs that wont take damage even though your reticle turns red and the mech glows. Mechs warping and making some amazing shots to the CT and head from 1000m away. Other things too like weapons that seem to recycle faster than mine do. I guess to be competitive I need to get that aimbot program that tells you where to shoot.

last year at this time I had high hopes for this game. Now, I've seen very little this year to be excited about anymore. The bugs and cheaters and constant nerfing/buffing of every decent weapon take the fun out of it.

Guess I blew 500 bucks to build a decent gaming computer last year only to play Minecraft.

The competition is higher during US prime time. EUs/ pacific suffer a ton of issues with higher pings.

Watch the PGI streams during the day, they don't do to bad, not to good, but not that bad. At night that don't kill a mech in 5 8v8 matches.

Has nothing to do with cheating.

[Blackfoot]

I understand the competition is higher in the evenings.

But still, all of the above things that I mentioned only seem to happen in the evenings.

Coincidence?

What is your ping?

There aren't Aimbots. I play exclusively at night, and I have never seen anything to make me think someone is using an aimbot.

Doing s search there are currently 2 aimbots out right now that come with other cheats attached. They are out there but how many people use them? I have no idea. I have only run into one person that I can say was fishy enough for me to report.
