Title: Cheating at Aces High?
Post by: NatCigg on January 23, 2013, 08:49:58 PM
Playing a game with cheaters sucks and when it happens enough any game can be ruined.

I do not notice cheating in aces high like i would playing ps3 online games.

Im wondering if people cheat in Aces High?
If so, how have you seen it done? what did you see?
Is there anything in the system that prevents cheating?

I saw a guy fly a spit with his Entire right wing gone.  He kept alt better than a falling bird and was able to change his course. I flew away before died.
Also, I get discoed sometimes and think, "oh, that was well timed. fuffn cheatn sofa bish".

Please share your thoughts.....cuz im  :bolt:

isn't being accused of being a cheater, a rite of passage, for the really good players?

I was listening to a guy whine about you the other night on range.
"There's no way a P-38 can do that. It's impossible!"
Oh, it's possible.

You should read the rules, NONE of this is an allowed subject to be discussed on these boards.

If you have an issue email HTC, provide film if you have it. They take any type of even ATTEMPTS at cheating very seriously.

If you were here when the 8 players arena was open, a couple of folks had hacks. I'm talking obvious hacks. People who were there knows. Though I doubt I can say what it was without getting slapped with a rule warning.

I wonder if its possible to set up some kind of filter on the servers. Like if they get some data that doesn't match up (say, P-47 with 20mm's), then they could capture the data packets in question, and kick the guy off the server untill someone can check to see if the server just made a mistake, or if someone slapped a 110's armament onto a P-47's wings.

By FAR most accusations of cheating are based on either misconceptions or flat out ignorance.   What's more it is the opinion of HTC that discussing or making accusations in public does more harm than good, especially considering that most the time the accuser is just wrong.

HTC is the only party who can ascertain if something fishy is going on or not and they are the only party who can take any corrective action.  If you think someone is cheating/hacking then you film it or .report it and notify them via email so that the issue can be handled in private.  If there is something to handle then trust that they WILL take action, it is a subject they take very, very seriously.

That is the only way to handle it.

Yea, no kidding, they wiped out the free arena because of a few hackers. So much for potential customers.

You don't really know what you're talking about on this one. Don't make the topic worse. I was there and I saw firsthand why they shut down the free HTH, and I am in total agreement with them for doing it.

I didn't say I didn't agree with the decision, but you can't say that they didn't lose potential customers for it either. Might wanna read a little more carefully before making accusations there bud.

Seen it online once awhile back....the unlimited bombs/fuel burn rate stuff.

Pretty sure someone from HTC logged on when people called about it
...took like 10 minutes.

Violates forum posting rule #7.

By the way, all of what the original poster stated have reasonable explanations.

Just because you (generic) do not understand what is happening in the game, do not assume it is a 'cheat' or 'hack'.  We take these things very seriously.

It is as simple as asking us (HTC) about it.  A film is the best thing to have as it gives a specific set of circumstances to deal with and, on occasion, will show us a potential bug in the game we can address.
