Last night on Wings of Liberty. 

[Feathered_IV]

I'm not used to reading stats.  What am I looking for?  I only ask because I often get around 150-175 points on the DED server after a bombing sortie.

Me neither. I'll risk a guess that the money is in the 10% fuel lasting 48 minutes, and the 148 targets destroyed while only firing 200-odd rounds and dropping zero bombs.

 

Did I win?

[216th_Peterla]

In one sortie 190 ground units destroyed?

[Livai]

There is one map from Wings of Liberty where a lot objective are near each other. Maybe it was this map???

[216th_Jordan]

only 10 bullets hit something.

0 bombs, 0 rockets. BUT: can we be sure that it's not the stats that have got something wrong? some server log or ingame track evidence would be needed.

[VBF-12_Stick-95]

The OP is ONE sortie of activity.  Notice he also had 108 hits with only 40 rounds fired or 270% hit ratio.

 

This is not a stats problem.  I was on when three guys were on WOL having a field day.  People on the forums describe how they got hits on them to no effect.

 

Different guy,  This is the stats for a 1 hour+ sortie on 10% fuel.  Pe-2 with 22 air kills and 281 ground kills with only 157 bullet hits.  Fishy doesn't begin to describe it.

It would seem that a couple players have found a way to unlock the Tzar Bomba.

obviously there showing it doesn't really matter what name they have, they can hack into the stats and change what ever name.

 

 

 

if it this easy well then its obviously happening in ROF too.

He had unlimited ammo, bombs and fuel + was invulnerable. There is already lots of discussion about it on WoL thread with some video footage.

[SOLIDKREATE]

I really hope this is just a bug and cowardly hackers haven't infiltrated this SIM.

 

There is a note in red that says "This block may contain a number of errors.....ect"

Not a stats bug.  I watched this happen in the chat as acknowledgement of targets taken out registered.  I large amount of targets would come up attributed to one of these pilots.  After about twenty seconds or a minute a crap load more.  Again and again this happened.  There was no time to rtb and re-arm.  All in a single sortie.  Total BS.

[SCG_Neun]

This is why we need to interact with people that we have a reputation with and a good feel for.  It's a shame it's come to that, but such is life.  Squadrons that we know, and individuals outside of squads that we know and respect as well.  Other than that, you can't come in my sandbox and play.

[216th_Peterla]

Hackers are the worst epidemic of the Internet games.

[BlitzPig_EL]

It's truly a sad thing, but it really was only a matter of time.

 

Any piece of software can, and will, be hacked.  It's just the reality of the times in which we live.

 

Fly with those you trust, and don't let the unprincipled criminals in our midst win the day.

[Venturi]

The devs need to do something about this problem as it will kill online play in short order.

[Livai]

  HaHa they all dig his owns grave with that stats next what they unlock is

[DeafBee]

I posted it yesterday too, but the tread was apparently deleted, 

 

I placed so many bullets into one of the cheaters and all I saw was the "puff smoke" and he never went down or began to smoke.

[KoN_]

The hacks are there .!!! 

They have been around for quite a while .

With icons and aim assist in expert servers .

I suggest you compile a list of offenders (proven) and send it to all server admins for proper banning. No access to MP, no problem.

[Jizzo]

i was there aswell one dude got like 10 kills in less than 30sec instantly left the server after that.

[-TBC-AeroAce]

Has anyone been randomly shot down ? Or is it just a stat hack?

[=EXPEND=Capt_Yorkshire]

i shot down a pe2 last night  and did'nt get the kill  i have seen a few weird things going on in the last couple of days on wings of liberty

What do you mean Ace . by randomly shot down .

[StG2_Manfred]

It's an in-game hack. With this hack on expert servers people can switch on all the aids like invulnerability, infinite fuel/ammo, aiming assistance etc

[Lusekofte]

4minutes out you see a PE 2 with unlimited bombs and indestructable . I think it is this he means. This clip is from WOL server

 

[wtornado]

Well they have sneaked in the back door.Let the online carnage begin!

 

Good video.

[=EXPEND=Capt_Yorkshire]

This is not good to see, any word from the devs on this, cheats should sterilized and have their hands lopped off.

[Livai]

Hmmm what next chapter for this game will be

 

 

If it starts with up to 35 player planes shooted down during a single sortie. This will be the end for this game. 190 Ground units destroyed is just the beginning.......what will follow we all know.....

[ITAF_Cymao]

Dont developers say anything about these things?

What are they doing to prevent these things?

[Livai]

Thanks for the gods this game is not p2p. p2p is cheater play ground. What we see here is that the client (WoL server) was hacked or just a bug. Keep the client clean from backdoor programs and this never happend again, short said. BTW it are now only a few players and not the best one.

[Feathered_IV]

Looking at the video I can see what you mean.  One wonders what they get out of it.

Sorry, but you are wrong. They client gets the settings from the server which has the aids deactivated. Then they overwrite the on client side the appropriate part of the memory adresses and they got it.

 

As far as I know this hack is already wideley distributed, particularly in the east part of the world. It ruins this game and probably some of the FM discussions are based on conditions where one used this hack to get the advantage and created wrong impressions.

 

Right now it cant be avoided and it can only be fixed by the devs...

If it is thats way. Good night. I was thinking the server where we play is the master and we are the slave. If the slave try change the settings somehow the master check each slave and notice very soon a difference he will ban him for good. Same as VAC ban works. Maybe we need something like that.

[SYN_Vorlander]

I posted a long time ago that it's possible for players to have access from the Dev team to test on any server. It happened in ROF and it will happen in BOS.

[StG2_Manfred]

A constant check of the settings would be a possibility but it would increase data on the network and/or the workload on the client unfortunately. Another possibility would be an exclusive expert mode, where such settings would be deactivated in general (hard-coded). Although it will be additional work for the devs with no direct benefit (nobody see such work) we hope they provide soon a fix, because as I said above, it ruins our game experience and their game.

 

I cannot understand how people get satisfaction from a victory created by cheating but seemingly there are enough out there...

Cheating is fun to troll others.

[6./ZG26_5tuka]

Manfred's explaination sounds valid. I know from sby else whos tried a hack on a big F2P game by writing a small program doing exactly that (he had low prgraming skills and found instructions on an open forum via google search only) to give him ingame gold currency (which you had to pay for normally) and it really worked. Although that's probably no longer working, it demonstrates how vulnerable such games are to the very core.

 

From my very positive expirience in RoF I was hoping not to see this topic arise in IL-2 ever, but this makes mme nervous.
