The #1 form of cheating in the game is purposeful airplane mode to remove TM loading in TW and GAC.
It isn't that harmful but it is wrong, and usually actively encouraged. A TM-loaded NS team usually will not = win in a TW. Just an extra battle.
Better analysis of crashes, client's platforms, and where they occur should be done.
Using airplane mode this way simply replicates the "Forfeit" feature - and you regard it as cheating? For real?
This is the point, it doesnt just replicate it, or people would just use forfeit, you would only use airplane mode if you had been defeated/took a risk for possible win. Forfeit is a required turn/move/command and is therefore strategic!
That being said... not sure I would go so far as to say cheating... more manipulation... or maybe even training wheels !
OK, it replicates the results of using the "Forfeit" feature:
The battle counts, your team is marked as defeated and the team you fought is reset to the state it had at the beginning of the battle.
Except it allows you to use it when it isn’t your turn, or after you’ve already lost. So it provides additional benefit. It’s pretty clearly an exploit. It’s also pretty clearly been accepted by CG as an acceptable way to play the game, so it’s not cheating. I do think CG should just build it into the game so a restart isn’t required (add an accept/refuse battle option after a loss in GA/TW).
