Hillarious....

1) AC/20 going right THRU mech...several times per fight : aaahh yes, my aiming skill is not good (mhm.. i swear i was at -50 meters and shot in his back)

2) StreakSRM's that, on a locked target, does not follow the target : aaah but he probably will have ECM or..wait..oh yeah : i didnt see it clearly or no.. he was just behind a rock/mountain/building

3) Strange as that same rock/mountain/building didnt protect me from being hit by a Gauss : but hey...my imagination..i will probably being hit by someone else...

4) A completely UNTOUCHED armor (Stalker Misery) : this little light mech was able to kill me with 4x small pulse laser after : here it comes : 2 SHOTS !!!!! No other mech near me... no ELRM raining on me.... strange... nope...
Needles to say he won that game almost single handed : +900 damage and 6 kills... good pilot i guess...

So ...Really PGI.... cheating not possible ?
No.. its not possible but here are the possible answers :

1) faulty hitreg issue
2) possibly network connection problem/latency problem
3) faulty hitreg issue
4) faulty hitreg issue or Small pulse laser issue or simply a player with a huge **** !


Then a bug that takes everything out of proportion :

In the new rivercity : woaw... the little trees can be knocked down now.. yeah... to bad an AC/20 is completely blocked by that little tree and guess what : the AC/20 does not knock the tree over...nope, not even after 28 shots on the same tree on the same point...
LASERS,PPC,GAUSS will go thru... but an AC/20.... no way...

Answer : sloppy coding ! AFTER almost 4 years now...still sloppy coding ?
Really PGI ? Didnt you earn enough to make the game at least a bit bug free ?

I dont suspect someone to cheat (if its already possible) but I do suspect PGI from stealing my money and after 4 years not to deliver a bug free game !
Hell your even worse then Microsoft.

OK, now I vented my frustration a bit, im going to play on

Wasn't there a huge desync problem with the servers this morning?

Yeah there is issues atm!

[Mcchuggernaut]

Definitely issues today. Just played a match where EVERYONE was lagging, and it took me twice the shots it normally does to kill things, even when it looked like every shot hit with someone standing dead still in front of me.

Desync issues FTW. Explanation done, carry on peeps.

Also, OP, most things like weapon damage, armour, missile flightpaths and the like are server authoritative. If there are cheats that affect those, i'd be very, very surprised. If someone guts you with SPL's, they haven't hacked PGI's servers, they've just gutted you with SPL's, or multiple mechs were shooting you and you didn't realize.

Most cheats tend to run down the road of aimbotting/wallhacking - basically, things that can be applied to the local client, rather than PGI's servers themselves.

We also shouldn't really be talking about cheating. Cheatin' talk gets threads locked!

i personally recall that robin hood ballad... well you know that part

‘Woe worth thee, wicked wood,’ sayd John,
‘That ere thou grew on a tree!
For now this day thou art my bale,
My boote when thou shold bee.’

p.s. i saw a very funny bug yesterday, on the forest colony, one place on the map pushed my mech behind by 20 meters or so when i tried to walk over it
