Cat7 had 90% of the time been ready and willing to kill my buffs when I emerged from NOE to make a suicide run on strats with a K4. Okay, fine, maybe he lurks in tower for this sort of thing. I assumed it was simply that.
But.
A Rook (don't know who) changed his nick to something like "Cat7Chts!" and Cat7 disappeared for a couple of days.
And now a "new" guy, same style except spit14 vs 109K4, with a lot of stars, suddenly emerges?
Would love to know why the cat7cheats guy said what he said. The change of name and plane strongly suggests that the cheats guy was right/cat trying same cheat with similar plane and new name (SAAB).
Opinions?

Film to Hitech, not here! See Rule #7.

CatD regularly cancels my buffs in a 109. He is really good at management and angles. He is a tough out especially in a Lancaster.
-
Interesting. I saw that cat7chts handle the other day and thought that was strange. Then I see Cat7 hasn't played in 2 weeks which mid month I think is when accounts expire. Whats really interesting is that Cat7 and SAAB almost have identical scoring metrics which indicates similar styles of performance. Further, they both excel in the ki84 and have similar statistical patterns in plane K/D, and love the wirblewind. From the kills this month they both love shooting bombers, specifically Lancs, that's a lot of Lanc kills. Its also just a coincidence but both are right next to each other ln overall rank and fighter rank. Just based on looking at this month (would need more prior month confirmations) I'd say there an actual possibility of them being the same person. :t

Obvious name change, but I have never thought of him to be cheating. In my experience he is just extremely timid and only engages if he has near zero chance of dieing. Everytime I've been able to force a fight he just isn't good enough to put up an entertaining battle. It's hard to say he uses a shade because I haven't seen any obvious names on the team that would belong to him, he could just be a good tower queen that is good at reading the map. I love when I get to kill him because I always find him when im going up against impossible odds.

The only real “cheating” in question would be shade cheating—and yes, it’s still alive and well. Tower-sitting with the intent to drive up ENY is also still alive and well.
In the court of public opinion, the burden of proof falls on the accuser. Before 2020, the developer strictly enforced rules against making public accusations of cheating. Since then, the stance has shifted: the official response to ENY issues has been, “switch sides to balance it.”
Running multiple accounts is not bannable. Using them to shade or stack is only addressed at the developer’s discretion—and he’s been open about having minimal involvement with the game in recent years due to burnout and personal reasons. Enforcing it would mean shutting down accounts, and that directly cuts into revenue. That’s not good for business.
predátel'stvo :salute
My advice? Get good. Shoot down the shade cheaters. Don’t stack countries to inflate ENY.
The Baaaahhhh has spoken 🐏

Some make this game such a priority you have to wonder what life outside of it they really have..

For some, the game is there life, and IMO thats ok. Keeps me outta bars lol.
I just want everyone here to know,… I’m very concerned with this issue.
Seriously, As spoken here many times, multi accounts is ok as ling as inly used on one side, NOT in mire than one country at a time. IF (prove it) they are ysing in two countries at a time now you have a concern.

I've had similar experiences. I never believed him to be cheating, just very map aware. He was always on the hunt for bombers.
I seem to remember a player named SAAB back in the day... I could be making this up. Anyone else?
-
I had a few run ins with saab last night. My best guess is he is not cat7. As others have posted cat7 choses low probability of death missions.
Speaking of Saabs, they use to have a small, 2 cycle, 3 cylinder engine car back in the 60s. It had 4 speed on the column and front wheel drive. Good gas mileage as you would suspect. Neighbor across the street had one.
-
Im not so sure Randy, Saab still only has 6 deaths as an attacker this tour. Also, Saab hasn't played in a while, no history this year. But Cat7 plays around 80-140 hours a month, which is a lot. If you look at Saabs time + cat7s time, they total about 140 hours. So that's another indication. There is a probability here, but cant confirm 100% without real billing proof. It is interesting though that Cat7 has disappeared.
-
If SAAB only defends against bombers and bombs GVs with a KI84, he’s cat7. Oh, if he also waits with an M3 and then attempts to run away for a green end sortie after realizing the base capture is dead, then it’s cat7
Does it suck to try and chase his k4 down as he flees to his base? Yes. At the end of the day is it really an issue? I don’t think so. There are plenty of people in this game who take more stake in defending bases/strats rather than attacking, such as frosti, and that’s ok. The knights are very good at coordinating attacks along with having dedicated defenders
-
I’m pretty sure I have recently seen cat7, maybe last week.
-
So someone changed their callsign?
-
I can easily name at least 50 players that will only fight when they have the extreme numbers, plane and altitude advantage. Once they even get the slightest scratch or dent in their skin, they run home to land.
The question was asked about the whereabouts of CAT7. I have never heard him on VOX but have encountered SAAB who has helped me out of a few predicaments recently. From what I can tell he is a very good stick. Not sure if they are the same ppl. Also not sure to what concerns the OP here either :headscratch:
-

No, potentially using 2 callsigns, atleast this month.

He didn't get any kills since 8/22, check his plane kills in the scores.

They do have a similar m3 kill count as well... just sayin. Im almost certain they are the same guy. Scoring metrics are almost identical and that is very hard to manipulate. Just like personalities, extremely hard to hide.

Well, if he's using a second account to see the other side and know where bombers are, that's a big problem and this will easily run bomber pilots out of the game. Just a huge waste of time for them to get gamed.

Ahhh gotcha.
I highly doubt he is using 2 accounts. I have seen CAT hunt for buffs and joined him a couple times when hunting for 99CRAPERA. Few times CAP has gone hiding off map where we both just Cat and I just land. I am sure if he had shades, he would of known where to go.
-
Rank? By that you must mean the points players. Much better things to do in this game than that...... really there are. :aok
-
Did anyone notice his squad name? Outrageous, & Vulgar come to mind. I would suspect Hitech did something about it. Just my opinion.

Yeah I mean the SAAB account hasn't been used this year, so he would have needed another account then, but it is striking how very similar their stats are, the Ki84 and m3 and wirble kills + overall time flying per month makes it very statistically probable, but again, cant necessarily prove without direct confirmation.

No? Im intrigued now lol. But according to squad scores, Cat7 had been disbanded, which means his account is likely closed.
-

I think it was questioning if SAAB was acting as a shade for Cat7 since it's obviously him but now on a different team. There is no overlap in Cat7 kills and SAAB kills because it's a name change, same person, same account. If SAAB was online when CAT7 is intercepting rooks bombers then we have a serious issue.

I guess a valid question is has anyone seen them online at the same time?
Other than that, it's a player that changed callsigns. Possibly.

And y'all wonder why people don't want to play this game anymore. Most of you people live and die by the stupid score as if it makes you something important. AcesHigh doesn't suck.....it's the players that run players off. Get some help. What a bunch of childish old men y'all are.

Wrong thread? No one here is complaining about score. People would like integrity in the games they play, otherwise it will run players off.

I was only using score for statistical reference and patterns. But as Haggerty said, we would like to maintain integrity with game strategy and scoring model so players feel they arent wasting their time trying to be strategic within the game. A bomber mission can take upwards of an hour so I would be pissed if someone with a second account was gaming my position the entire time so they could strike at the perfect time.

Good point.. now I have to wonder why I replied even though I rarely play. Fantasy football is much more fun
