So fed up today as my gameplay ruined by a few hackers here and there on Emerald (23May2017, 9am-12pm GMT+8). So I am taking this initiative to let others different factions (or same) to be aware of hackers/exploiters in the game recently. If you know some them, please share their name in the below threads so that everyone is aware and report to dbg if they are online or seen in actions. Make sure you check them first either recursion/stat.dasanfall/planetside2, just to make sure your hackusations legit. 1) hangtheblacks66666666 (or several similar alts) Have 15 alts, between Connery and Emerald. Warping/insta-kill vehicles. Click any of the characters and see the killboards/timing https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428602376675596993/search/hangtheblack 2) gameofplanet2 Seen only this alt, on Emerald, Insta-kill vehicles with Rocklets. https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428602376675596993/ 3) NjggerSlayer (or several similar alts) Both connery and emerald, insta-kill vehicles with Rocklets and few primary/secondary weapons. https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/search/Njgger
Tell me about it..... In game around release time (not sure if its still like this) i remember chatting with a friend of mine, i tried to say 'bigger' in a tell to him, it was ****** out due to being too close to n****r. If the chat can be this strict, youd think the name filter would catch just changing i to j...
4) NoclipImplantTesting (NC, emerald) using somesort of hack, kills vehicle with one-shot, most likely undermap or under rocks https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428602376701758929/killboard
Guys as much as I hate to say it, there's nothing that can be done about hackers. This is a F2P game. Any bans will result in a new account within 5 minutes. IP Bans can be circumvented with VPNs, HWIDs can be spoofed. You can't beat it.
What's so bad about a cheat user making a new account every X mins? Let's make them repeat this joyous task EVERY ten mins!
5) HeyGuysImCheating Warp, kills in his LA, insta-kill vehicle https://www.planetside2.com/players/#!/5428602376701418737/killboard
Look at this statistic. His Rocklet have 4000plus dmg per hit and Soltice 1900plus per hit. So does the some of the above player. http://ps2.fisu.pw/player/?name=heyguysimcheating&show=weapons There seems to be a similarity, as they have modified their damage profile or hitbox dmg. Most likely running a third party app while gaming that allow warping as well...
Interesting - never noticed the dmg per hit before - if it's reliable, maybe another method for DBG to quickly spot the scumbags ?
He's rocking a fully automatic AV Mana Turret. He was under the map at Snowsheer Watchtower last night insta gibbing all the TR armor.
Then start banning known VPN endpoints. You should be able to show if multiple accounts are all logging in from the same IP address over a given span of time. It's not just going to be a few here and there either it's going to be a lot as the banning starts. If you're stupid enough to hack on your home internet connection then you remain banned for an indeterminate amount of time could be 6 weeks or it could be 6 months.
