ever since this supposed anticheat fixing ive noticed when i have drove my javelin around tank mains i usually fight they are no longer magically killing me instantly with their "skilled" aim. one guy who has a 7KD, all of a sudden was not able to hit a single round of 8 rounds he shot at me where as before the first time he would see me it only took him 1-2 shots. i tested this three times today, if i encounter them again ill be recording it as in the moment it didnt cross my mind until afterwards i am not calling everyone in a tank a cheater, out of them all i suspect 3. and today i only met one of them but that one out of the 3 has the highest KD out of them all
give it a few days and their payed cheat will be updated. Blatant cheaters get perma ban?...... or slap on the wrist cause they bought lots of ingame cash.
I still see prowler firing 4 rounds in a precise, no kick back, straight line. Pretty sure their exploits are still active.
All are supposed to have a scatter/ spread based on bloom and cone. They should not be firing in perfect lines, or hitting the same spot from several hexes away while firing rapid fire.
so i logged on today again and encountered another guy i suspected of using aim assists in their tank and once again this is the 3rd guy out of the 3 guys i suspected of this, they cant kill me in the 1-2 shots they used too all of a sudden and i recorded it too. i will be making a video of this soon once i get enough footage of these people. so let me make this clear when i log onto this game, all i literally do is play the javelin, ive aurax'd the javelin over 3 times already, i know this vehicle in and out and everything you can do with it. ive fought all the tank mains of emerald and (some of the EU ones to come to emerald to troll) i know how each one specifically moves around in their tank, how to engage each and every single one, which one sucks at a specific thing that i can take advantage of and which ones don't and have to change strats to kill them. in the past, the ones i suspect of using some sort of script or aim assist can literally one shot me as soon as they turn around no matter whether i am boost dodging to the 100% best of my ability that literally works on every other person who i don't suspect of cheating. and now all of a sudden as this supposed "anticheat" they have put in place, these very same people CANNOT instantly kill me like they used too, and its crazy that now i have encountered 3 of them and they all were not able to kill me within the first 1-2 shots of engaging them on my javelin. P.S ive been doing this for so long i know what a latency side tank round shot looks like that kills me and one that doesn't make sense to me how they managed to kill me while i boost dodged its kinda all making sense to me now on why these people try their hardest to try to get me banned because i am catching onto their activities. you will never know these guys are using aim assists if you aren't in a flash or a javelin, something with a smaller hitbox, than a tank or any other ground vehicle in the game, due to larger hitboxes and just being "used to getting hit by a tank shell because you can take multiple before dying" before this anticheat update these thoughts of these players cheating where always in the back of my head and nothing i can really do to try to proove it because it would be hard, but now it has become blatantly apparent because its just very odd to me how these players are no longer able to kill me instantly like they used too ever since it has come across my mind the past week of logging in and encountering these same people. @Mithril if you see this it would help if i can get actual confirmation that there are some of the new anticheat features on the live server already so i can continue my own investigation on this
No. it doesn't improve scatter at all, only velocity. "Anchored mode: The Prowler may deploy, which increases main cannon projectile velocity by 50% and disables movement while active. The Prowler must not be moving to deploy." "Barrage: While active, the Prowler's main cannon reload speed is increased by 30% for 15 seconds. Can be activated once every 35 seconds." So, YES. that person was using some form of hack. This game is LOADED with people in tanks that have zero scatter pattern. Yet, when I use those same weapons etc... my scatter is HUGE... wonder why? Oh yes, because they're hacking. You should not be able to snipe infantry and aircraft from several hexes away with barrage.
To be fair, Prowler gun dynamics are such flaming garbage I stopped playing TR. In this case I almost feel sympathy for the cheaters.
