Diargoa Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 When i played i always heard those macro thingy in district chat accusing someone here and there. What are those actually? and is it a bannable offense?
Frosi Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Macros are tools that automate gameplay for you, in APB macros are most commonly used to automate the tapping / rate of fire of semi-auto guns essentially turning them fully automatic as the macro does the clicking for you. This is also against the terms of service and will result in account bans as it is considered cheating.
cowhorseman Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 and to add to what ever a spct is mosre then likey people will accuse you of it even if you don't and claim gms do not ban people, due to the fact there hush on bans and it is unkown how many alts one can have it's hard to tell if a cheater ever got banned or not for macroing also ifi recall right macros can be used for other things like items but idk man i only cheat in minecraft
Diargoa Posted February 15, 2021 Author Posted February 15, 2021 So it's pretty much a bot then. Is it harder to detect that kind of players if compared to straight hackers?
ColorBauss Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 Yeah it's harder to detect, macroers are everywhere. Most common weapons are FBW, Joker SR-15 Carbine and Obeya CR Rifle.
Berkshire Posted February 15, 2021 Posted February 15, 2021 We shall learn to live with them I guess, there's nothing we can do at the moment.

Except on the SWARM, which has a recoil pattern instead of random recoil.
