Amsterdam 1 Hackers proof, where is the fucking admin

[cinderstar]

It doesn't really matter at this point. The OP had questions and he was answered.

The biggest mistake the OP made was playing on that server. Avoid official servers like the clap!

That's my philosophy as well. Community servers with active admins will always be way better. Why anyone insists on playing on the official Facepunch servers is beyond me.

[QUOTE=mrknifey;47913897]look, hackers exist, you will get no debate on that here. but this "proof" is a shaky branch to support requests to ban or witchhunts. the best option is still to twitter that stuff so the team can follow up, not to come to the fp forums and post a video that A) doesn't show the name of the player in question or B) prove sufficiently that said player is cheating.[/QUOTE]

have u watched the video? it even has been marked when the name shows up. and peopel from our server reported this issue every day since last thursday but NO ONE has looked in to this. Aaaaaaaand i posted this one here cause alot of people told me that "Holmzy" the admin watched this forum often so i hoped i could get his attention this way. Another reason why i posted this here is to see if i could get any help getting some info on community server where i will be moving too now.

[QUOTE=cinderstar;47913819]There have been a ton of hackers on the official servers - unless you are going to suddenly pretend those servers never had any hackers in the last 6 months.

Why give the OP a hard time about the video? Do we really have to debate how good the video is as proof? What does it matter? It is of course entirely possible the person in the video was hacking - and that it was very clear to the OP that he was flying - even if the video is not that clear.[/QUOTE]

Thank you. Someone that doesn't attack me for asking something :)

Thank you for all the help aswell, i will be moving now to a community server. I'm not sure how to find blueprints now since the update tho cause i haven't found any yet nor have i been able to spawn in the desert.

You find blueprints the same as before - in barrels and rad sites. What's changed is that now barrels are only found along the side of roads, monuments and rad sites instead of randomly scattered around the landscape.

i watched it, i just disagree with you about how damning it is.

regardless, i'm not attacking you, and i agree with cinder; it's beside the point. you asked a question, and it was answered. official servers are pretty much unmoderated, though there is a twitter page you can post "cheater" claims on so EAC can follow up.

unless holmzy saw him cheat, i would be surprised if he banned on the evidence provided, and it's really not his obligation to sort it out anyway.

Now this I have to agree with. The video in itself is not damning in any way. It suggests the person COULD be using a hack, but is hardly solid, damning evidence. But if multiple on the server are seeing the guy cheat and there was an active admin that could TP to the person, he could confirm for himself and take appropriate action.

But of course, the official servers are unmoderated. Devs (with admin rights) occasionally play on them, and they don't seem to have any real sense of enforcing rules or banning cheaters. Reports of hackers are largely ignored in favour of letting EAC do its thing in waves.

Of course when someone starts a new game they will try the "Official" servers, and not want to try Joe's 1337 server called Rusty Bucket or something. New players just don't know the Official servers are bad and have many more hackers.

I agree. I too made that mistake. But after trying a couple, it didn't take me long to realize that moving to a community server was a better option. My comment was more referring to people with hundreds of hours of play time who are constantly whining on here about official servers being full of hackers, large clans that can't be beat, and general assholery. Yet, they keep putting up with it and expect others to save them to their misery rather than moving on. "But meh blueprints!"

[withnail]

Main reason why people play the official servers (I do too) is that you know they will still be around. So many community servers disappear that it sometimes feels pointless bothering with them.

There does seem to be less hackers around than Legacy.

Only official server I can really recommend is Rustafied, as they generally have admins on all the time. They were a community server that got given official status. I'd still play there now, but there are so many people and buildings that my machine can't handle it a day after a wipe.

There's a cheat who goes by the name of "Wanderer" on a Rustopia server...the killbox shows him getting headshots at 1300 meters.

Games these days need ACTIVE MODERATORS, at all times. It's a shame the hackers run rampant. Reporting does the same thing it's done for the last 16 or so years of online gaming - almost nothing.

[QUOTE=Crunchmeister;47907432]EAC and VAC don't ban hackers immediately like an active server admin would. They ban in waves. Once the AC systems detect a hacker, they're flagged in the system and they will get banned in the next wave. How frequent those ban waves are, I have no idea. IMO, whatever they are, they should be a lot more frequent.[/QUOTE]

no they shouldnt, because then hackers would know what cheats are detectable and which arent
