Fortune Runner 796 Posted June 10, 2018 as Matt said......battleeye is working AS INTENDED that means its doing its part also some people use the same gun over and over and their skill goes up with it....are you sure you didn't face an elite gold and get destroyed? happens to all of us sooner or later and then there's some server lag etc that Matt mentioned that would affect what we see and do which explains why sometimes we get dropped dead before we can react i am in the same boat we all are which is that once apb is fixed...sigh soon ™ ..... then things will be more promising and funner around here and less hacking accusations and no i don't want to see broadcasts it created massive toxic fumes that we just don't need - we didn't always have broadcasts and it was more pleasant times without them - good to see them gone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sayori 311 Posted June 10, 2018 Oh, nevermind then. People couldn't wait more than 2 days before injecting:) Same people, same clans. Nothing changes. I'll wait a few weeks until it gets detected and they get banned. Again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously I never saw the name before, was a gold fairly low level, playing a little "too" good, in our mission v 4 players had 15 kills and zero deaths. Sure. It happens sometimes. Opp'd her next mission, same results, so to me sketchy af. Not a hacker by far, but definitely a macroer using a joker. And the response in /d chat? LULZ. Several people informed me macroing is legal and it isn't cheating and they use the softwar that comes with their razor mouse. I mean at least 5-6 people were saying this in district... so... yeah, macroing IS a thing. Her name was something like Niikki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Her name was something like Niikki i’d argue that macroing won’t actually provide them with a real advantage, a max rof carbine is still going to get slammed by cqc weapons and will be useless for anything else player might have been scroll wheeling, that’s something i see every so often Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The limit on low recoil, high accuracy, low bloom semi-autos is the HUMAN SKILL and inconsistency of requiring to both aim and tap fire. Hence it is an exploit for a clear advantage to macro part of the process, simply aim and program the rapid full auto speed fire portion and over advantage the gun. Macroers should get at least temp bans and a flagged account so GMs can spectate players who've used macros in the past, as anticheats can't detect them. Quote a max rof carbine is still going to get slammed by cqc weapons Not from range though, and it's clearly giving an exploited advantage to some weapons, for example the highly accurate, long range obeya... when macroed becomes a full auto sniper.

And your point is.... macroing is okay because it's not really unfair? Quote "Macroing is the act of using third-party software to perform automated tasks." http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Macro Can you please tell me the name of any game in which use of third party software to gain a game advantage, from faster shooting to faster planting which does NOT leads to a permanent ban?

Vipertechs 5 Posted June 10, 2018 15 hours ago, MattScott said: Hi guys, I can confirm that server lag (see my post on this) and matchmaking are high priorities in the roadmap. BE is working as intended. I wont share exact details, but it is collecting data and reporting cheaters properly. Thanks, Matt BE Working as intended... You've just unbanned shed loads of cheaters, and yet legitimate players can't log in because the BattlEye program is giving an out of date failure mode and is not updating. Well done!

Why are you arguing that macroing does no harm and gives no advantage? ONe can easily infer from such a position you think it's "okay." 2. Well I said her playstyle was suspicious, but when she admited to macroing in district and said it was okay then that kinda cinched it... and about 5 other players in district also said they were macroing and it was legal in game to use razor mouse macros since that's what they were designed for. 3. since you weren't even there, why are you defending the sketchy player and macroing? Oh wait... look at your name: BANNED. Yeah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh wait... look at your name: BANNED. Yeah lists are cool i like debates, and - again - i find it hard to believe someone using a macro on a carbine went 15-0 i wish you had put this in your first post im not defending the player or macroing, im just pointing out the negatives because - again - i think macros are more of a hindrance in apb, especially on a carbine i can change my name if its too hard for you to separate it from the things i post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't care to see who gets banned and I know a lot of people feel the same way. The only thing I get out of seeing bans in siege are tiny little chuckles when stupid names get banned.
