Suspected Cheats/Hacked Accounts

Do You Think The Game Is Still Full Of Cheats?

Yep - and it shows frequently.

Not sure - sometimes I'm pretty sure there was a hacked account I played against/attacked my base.

The 9* Protector in his Base Defense is in the current Battle Pass. In order to get that far the requirements are quite demanding. (It will soon be a 12* after completing the event.) That is suspicious right up front since the data doesn't reflect that of an active player (64 SMs/418 base attacks/97% success rate/Level 57)

A 252 win streak is also quite remarkable in only 418 base attacks. It seems something is amiss. Might be worth reporting.

There's nothing about that player account that looks right.

And again :roll:

This is blatant cheating, not even an attempt to cover it up...

Maybe with several slo-mos, barrage, and piercing bullets (if possible with this weapon...not sure) that do not show up in the results. The person got to Prestige 9 somehow so he/she/they/it is a very good cheater if there is even such a thing.

In fact I take it back (SOZ CatPrincess :oops: ), tried on my own base and it seems SOT3 has been buffed and without slo-mo's I nearly took it down, barrage seems to re-enable straight away (either that or I've been really lucky with the timings).

Tested out today on Itsy-Bitsy Spider, yes it does rearm barrage after 5 seconds without any kill shot...

Now this one I checked the weapon to see if it had been buffed, and no it hasn't, so this one is a bit obvious... :roll:

Wow. I'm going to have to try that feature in PVP. That is quite an advantage if it is not a bug.

Well, I tried SOT3 with a couple of different suits and couldn't duplicate your results. Got in one barrage and then killed.

Hopefully, GL didn't read about it here and make adjustments.

This gets weirder, tried again today on World Destroyer (using Furmidable gear) and it varied between zero seconds to re-enable barrage and 10 seconds and anywhere in between. :?

Also noticed that barrage had very little, if any, effect. :shock:

Here we go again, a relatively new player looking at stats, tested weapon on my base just in case it had been buffed (it hasn't), and no way, really struggled taking out a grey drone.

Multiple slo-mos, piercing bullets, some kind of holo boost is a guess (but no listed "boost assignment").

Otherwise a cheat.
