boss-characters in pvp?

I had to edit your post to remove the name.  Sorry about that.  It's in the forum's TOU.

Sorry for disobeying the rules. It was not an intention. Unfortunately, these cheaters on EU servers have become extremely heavy in recent days. Last also as a huge-cat character. This destroys the whole gameplay. I always reported those players, but they keep doing this over days.

Now after 1200 hours in the game, it seems to be over. I uninstalled it today.

Thanks for the clarification

Mensch, Krümel, wir würden dich vermissen! Lass dich nicht von den Hackern vertreiben. Ich freu mich immer, deinen Namen im Spiel zu sehen (auch wenn er meistens dann aufpoppt, wenn ich von dir erledigt werde und tot rumliege ;-))).

Vielleicht haben diese Typen genau das Ziel, den anderen alles zu versauen. Aber sie sind ja nicht IMMER da, meistens "nur" für 2 Runden oder so.

Mit den Namen hier ist es nervig, und gebannt wird wohl nicht wirklich einer. Es sind Kinners, und irgendwann wird denen hoffentlich wieder langweilig. Mach notfalls ne Pause und dann komm' wieder! Ist doch immer schön, von so einem netten Namen umgemäht zu werden!

Danke für die netten Worte. Mir ist erst beim erstellen des Posts aufgefallen, wie viele Stunden ich in diesem Game verbracht habe. Es war die letzten Jahre mein absoluter Favorit. Ich spiele immer alleine und immer nur zum Spaß.

Es sind leider einige Cheater unterwegs, die sogar im Chat zugegeben haben zu cheaten. Das hatte ich vor Monaten gemeldet und sie spielen noch heute. Meine Liste von Spielern, bei denen ich sofort wieder das Spiel verlasse ist leider so lange geworden, dass es langsam echt keinen Spaß mehr macht. Ich habe vor Monaten schonmal aufgehört, als es mit Aimbottern überhand nahm und nun kommen diese Boss-Charaktere. Ich kann und will mir nicht vorstellen, dass es für Entwickler so schwer ist, dieses extrem offensichtliche cheaten zu unterbinden.

This time in English and for all: It cannot be that players have to leave the game they love and played for sooo many hours because of some nasty kids messing around.

BTW: One of my friends was on the same game with you with the guy you mentioned, and he cursed all the time: "Go home, kid! Don't your parents give you something useful to do?"

@AceB011does a good job in tracking down these guys, and their names can be posted on reddit or also under Ace's videos.

It all doesn't help, though. We know some names, then new ones come. And the aim bot problem is very obnoxious, too. There are still many players around who do much more damage than they are supposed to.

Now, if we all pack our bags and leave, they somehow have won. I don't know, what's best. Ignore them? Fight them? I listened to their chat in Ace's video, and it's really silly. What sort of person is motivated by such things?

There are still lots and lots of new players (or old ones with a second account for a challenge) who would be left with the hackers. I like the game too much to leave it, and I only got it last year. We often play single or private play, though.

The servers in the US have some cheaters, too, but in my experience they only last for two rounds which we have to "sit out" somehow, unless their boss characters let the whole server crash.

The name you mentioned is already well known and still there. As are others. I don't know either why it is so difficult to kick them for good. - But I think we shouldn't leave them take over.

Indeed, it is no fun to have them around. But if nothing happens against them, we can either leave the specific round (but that's difficult cause there are not so many full lobbies) or wait, until they "go home" or go to bed or whatever.

They seem to know that they cause a lot of confusion and anger right now, and that's what attention seekers like most. So maybe we'd better say (at least inside of ourselves): "Oh, that poor kid again! What a sad life." Somehow that's really what I think. I mean: Who in their right mind would do all that crap consistently?

Aim bot, god mode and all the other stuff at least makes some sense (for being regarded as the big great master player), but this stuff... It's sad. Mad sad bad.

@PMNuts  You know our old chancellor, who always "sat things out"? Maybe we have to do just that. :-(

@PMNuts 

War gestern mit dir in den selben Runden, wo die Ziegen rumliefen, auch als ein Schnapper mit Grafikfehlern die Mondbasis zu einem optischen Bretterverhau gemacht hatte, ehe er auf die Ziege respawnt hat. Hat mich auch extrem genervt und gleichermaßen für die Gegenseite leid getan, wenn sie sich mit sowas rumplagen müssen. Dann noch immer alle die das Spiel vielleicht noch sehr neu haben und nicht wissen was um sie herum passiert und versuchen gegen die Cheater zu kämpfen (wie am Wochenende die Blume, welcher man keinen Schaden machen konnte).

Aber wie @Jumpy_Bumblebee schreibt, sie sind nicht immer da, größtentteils hat man Ruhe vor ihnen, oder switched in eine andere Region (und über jeden der in der Spielerliste steht, der einen "echten" Namen hat, freue ich mich auch... einen ohne seltsame Zahlen und Buchstaben).

Gut, das mit den Aimbots/Wallhacks ist noch eine andere Sache, wo ich noch keine Ahnung habe, wer wirklich gut ist, oder wer da auch cheatet.

Glaube ja auch, das trotz deinem deinstall der Fortschritt zum Glück nicht weg ist. Vielleicht krümelst du ja doch bald wieder mit.

@PMNuts  @Riffinchen  @AceB011 

Hmpf, I just wrote a whole lot in English, but it got removed "as spam". Okay. 😞

So in short again:

We shouldn't let these kids take over our turf!

It cannot be that players who love their game and played it for many many hours quit because of them. Yes, they are nasty, but they usually leave after 2 rounds.

They seek attention, and we shouldn't give them too much. Names can be found in other places, but it doesn't help, because they only change name or strategy.

Hopefully they get bored soon. It's a high phase at the moment, and I don't understand why these people do what they do. But we might have to sit it out and not let them take over our otherwise beloved game. :eahigh_file:

@Riffinchen 

Indeed, we would leave all the newbies to fight with the hackers. And sometimes it is hard to see who is what (if they pose as normal, but invincible characters, like the sunflower and astronaut lately).

There are so many new players (or so it seems to me), and they should at least see that the higher ranks STAY, even if there's a hacker around. And even if we do nothing, but wait until the round is finished. - Let them do their thing and wait. Maybe it's more boring if we don't try to fight them at all. I don't know.

That's only possible, of course, if the servers don't crash.

Hackers like that must be removed and removed quickly. It ruins the experience for everyone else and gives the game a bad reputation. I've only personally encountered it once when someone was playing a Gnomus Brother but I've seen evidence of it here and on Reddit. I know we're anticipating the new game but people are still playing (yes, including PC), as I had quests to do last night and jumped into a TT match, it was full and no cheaters that I was aware of, and I don't want this cheat reputation to be carried into the other games!
