Why do I almost always get opponents that are 2 levels higher? And why can't I build units or gather tiberium as fast as my opponents? I just had an opponent that was level 11 everything and had 2 harvesters, 4 Wolverines, 3 kodiak, 3 talons, and 2 of something else that I can't remember the name of (but cost 130 tiberium to build), all before I could unlock my buildings. This happens at least 70% of the time. Can someone please tell me how this happens?
That’s because you didn’t charge the pads and while you destroyed his harvesters, you didn’t do anything else to cause him to spend money like attacking his base. If all you do is to continue to attack his harvesters and nothing else, all he has to do is keep rebuilding harvesters.
Remember, you still get money without harvesters. Harvesters are just a bonus to get money faster.
So what you are saying is that it is normal for a player to be able to unlock his buildings and have nearly 1000 tiberium worth of troops/units without harvesters? Makes no sense because I've tried that and it doesn't work. The rate at which tiberium accumulates without harvesters is to slow to accomplish such. And I did have one pad occupied while killing harvesters.
Can you post the replay please?
Well without a replay, it’s all hearsay. For the record, I have tried to cheat. I scoured the Internet for a long time looking for ways to cheat to beat these whales that have all their units and level 12’s and 13’s. There is no way and even if there is a way, the server wouldn’t allow the cheater to win since it looks for the version of the game you are playing. If it is an unauthorized version of Rivals with tweaks, it automatically awards the cheater a defeat even if he won the match.

What if said cheating was an exploit? would that work? I saw an exploit occur before in a match (a month or two before) where a tick tank burrowed into a chem warrior. That exploit was unintentionally performed by my opponent even though I won. I don't know how the exploit works, but I bet its very hard, with most attempts causing the tick tank to burrow next to the unit.
Also, what about DDL injections or a virus that manipulates the connection of other players? Isn't the virus considered a cheat if one creates it to wreck havoc on your opponent's internet connection?

I don’t know about any of that stuff but what I said as far as the servers checking for the right version of the game I heard from Battalia when he was here and EA Dance when he was here.
All that other stuff.... You got me.
Is it considered cheating (as in would the game detect that) if I messed with the game's files and switched the unit names around along with their models. I've managed to find my way into the directory of C&C Rivals using blue-stacks before. I could for example shuffle all the models and rename them into one another. My guess is that units like the predator would look like a shatterer on my device and pit-bull is a grounded orca. They will still act like normal, its just their models switched. I could imagine a drone swarm get replaced with war-dogs, and the result would be hilarious. Seeing 5 war-dogs running in mid-air must be priceless.
