Re: The cheating in Unbound is out of control

Hi friends,

I came up with something good on this topic and I tried it too. When playing online, you notice straight away who is driving normally and who is not driving normally. Then throw a party with these gamers who drive normally and you suddenly have a lot of fun with online racing. I've done that 70% of the last few days and they were all close races, sometimes we almost finished the same time and it wasn't that many seconds behind the last one. Then something like this picture can't happen, with a race track that isn't difficult, that 2 gamers didn't even get to the finish line. This photo shows my car and the other names are not on the picture. Try the party and you'll have more fun if I start all races with just the party. Just a little tip again, have fun and race

    @JudyRacing I seen cheaters aka lvl 00 with Chiron but never seen racing cheaters. Your picture proves what? That you are bad driver in bad car? The time 48 is not even good, I do 42 and seen 35 so 48 is very average, he is not cheater by any chance, go to youtube and check what are meta cars builds. In your case noone cheating you just need to get better.

    Well then you've already heard on youtube that people admit that there are cheats in Unbound, and my car is fully built in class S and I drive a lot of races, and that only happens when the other person doesn't drive the original, me I don't always take the Mclaren, mostly the Ferrari, and I also have the Nissan, but it's not nearly as fast as the Mclaren. Just yesterday, the gamer had an accident a few meters in front of me, and then he drove even further in front of me right after the accident! explain something to me If I have an accident in front of my pursuer, I am usually far behind my pursuer. that means that the godmode also works online. And I've often seen these accidents by opponents and they were still ahead. And of course that's all quite normal, as you think. I do not think so! I've already spent hours getting the Ferrari Pista in class B, no, I get it in A+ and some drive it in class B, is it quite normal? Or that the opponent's nitro is lit up until you can no longer see the opponent at all! All OK?

    @JudyRacing Yes I seen that as well when ppl hit traffic and jump and drive like nothing happen that is the desync that is another issue,

    Go to youtube MxgicIQ channel and try his last build for F40 thats the rocket top S build, drive manual and start at 3rd gear then you will disapear to anyone. Its not cheating its just fast car,

    For Pista in B build go to MilitiaGaming youtube, also check AlexCornnut youtube he has also plenty of good builds.

    If you build some good cars you will change opinion on cheaters. You have to learn how to drive with manual shifting, you will be 3 seconds faster minimum.

    There's definitely cheating online. I know using boost looks different when your see other players doing it but some racers it's over the top and they jump way forward sometimes when you have overtaken them. you also se the ai cars on the road near them doing it! Also ghost cars that appear in your way out of nowhere.

    Please tell me I'm not hallucinating!!

    You are not hallucinating, these cheaters have been around in NFS for a very long time. I have blocked some gamers for cheating, but there aren't many, just a few, I blocked most of them for their behavior in the game. I also reported cheaters, but unfortunately nothing happened to them. You have to live with these cheaters.

    look at this video, it was like that in all 3 races on the playlist, you lead with a lead of 300 - 500 meters, and shortly before the finish he shoots past you like lightning.

    just want to add to this thread, that this is ongoing it seems

    I dread racing against PC players on PS5, as it seems to be a high chance you'll be up against someone who has infinite nitrous and a car that is out of spec for the tier

    They can come from dead last to having a 2km lead easily as they rocket past everyone with nitrous non stop

    Oh yes, that's right, yesterday I had a so-called cheater again in the PVP, it was in the mixed levels, and he chose a Mclaren F1 1994 in class A, I thought at first, ah the ad is crazy again, but no, He actually drove the Mclaren F1, so of course I couldn't keep up with my Testarossa, his car was as fast as an S+ vehicle. And I think at Riverwalk the Testarossa is the best vehicle. The best thing is that at the next race in class A+ he also drove the Mclaren F1 1994, and in class S at Lakeside he also drove the Mclaren. Ok, I'll leave it 1 class lower, that's how it's described in Unbound that you can only tune vehicles 1 class lower, but 3 classes lower is probably only possible with cheating. Of course you don't think so quickly about taking screenshots, but no matter, we have to live with them.

    @EA_Illium In this game a problem. No report for cheating. Only abuse, and other reasons. Please add to Unbound reason for report - cheats.

    Is Mclaren f1 becoming an A class? I heard it for the first time. I don't think that vehicle would fall below A+ even without an engine 🙂

    As for the reporting system of the game, I have made at least 100 reports, and it has always been "no action is required at this time".

    The man falls off the rails and wanders around the street for 2 minutes in the S+ "Gotta be kidding me" race in PVP, and next thing you know, he comes in first place. On the map, it appears to be in the city, not on the train track. There is no one in front of me on the yellow racing line on the map, but the man suddenly jumps from somewhere and takes first place, 100 meters before the end.

    Some players may go overpowered. I can understand this. But cheaters are in a different dimension. I saw a man driving upside down at a speed of 400km 🙂

    And I keep repeating. Yes, much more on PC, but Xbox and PS players have definitely found a way to cheat, too.

    Oh yes, I know that thing about accidents all too well, and I've only experienced the other thing in the PVP races. You're leading the race with a lead of 450 meters, and like lightning the second one shoots past you just before the finish line. and that in all 3 races on the list.
