  • GMs and Devs are oblivious. The only time they seem to play is in private games.. soo

    And if you didn't know Xtrap = GameGuard.. Just a different front.

    ... Xtrap is still way better then GameGuard
  • Why you trying to get this ribbon anyway? NERD!!!!

    Dont you have better things to do?

    And yes Smiley, this is a sad community. What can we do? We dont even have a ping cap yet.

    Well...just to prove a point :s
    If they want us to play (which is less than 2 hours a day...cmon) at least do something to make it possible.
  • This thread will probably get closed soon. But before that happens. Let out all the anger out man seriously. This game is becoming more like a joke. CF China looks like a freaking god game. Ours? -_- explains it pretty well

    Hopefully not :S
    Its just a question which hasn't yet been answered (fully). I just want the GMs and devs to take a day off from their jobs...and see how bad the situation is. Is that really too much to ask? :(
  • Do what I did... I joined a fun clan like meta, where we make private rooms and it's usually 10-16 ppl in that room of just our clan.

    Join clans like meta and big clans is a solution. I alreadyy got like 4 hours down with meta. Hero mode is fun with them ;)

    The point is we don't want to join big clans for the purpose of just playing for fun. We just want to know why hackers are out of control. 1 shot killers are like, 5 in every room. What's up with that?
  • First of all, I'm sorry for making this thread which is basically made up of "QQ".

    Do the devs and GMs play this game daily (5-10 minutes a day) to see how the game is or do they just think everything is OK?

    Sorry for complaining but do they think playing 50 hours, hell even an hour, is hard with this community? You get kicked for being better. If you type "l0lsmilyface hacks" your team will kick you without any proof. They'll just believe that little moron and then you'll lose the time you spent on that game. Plus there's the hackers. Its not bad, at least its better than when we had gameguard, but it's still not purty :S

    Again, sorry for being such a baby...I just got frustrated because they might think playing this game isn't hard when they actually don't know how horrible, annoying, and rotten this community is. I'm the same right now since I'm complaining but...just saying.

    I like how last time they reduced the requirement for the ribbon into half since there were a ton of issues...but do you guys think they should reduce it a little bit more? I can easily play 2 hours a day IF this game was enjoyable which it isn't atm.

    Posted this on a newer thread but it is somewhat related. Let me know what do you think.

  • Oblivious?! Are you lot ret.arded?

    A million and 2 threads a day about it and you think they dont know or arent doing anything about it?

    Hack patching is beyond Z8's control... XTrap are currently working on a patch for this hack at the moment.

    Like Saidin said, things cant be done at the snap of a finger... if you dont like the average timeframe for a hack to get patched then leave... its the same everywhere else.

    Granted its taken a little bit longer but all Z8 has asked from you is a little patience and to play with friends in the meantime... and you rip on them for that?


    Sorry kiddies.... this is the real world. Things arent going to work at the snap of your fingers like it does at home with your parents.

    Wait it out... play SnD... play in locked rooms with friends and you wont have to deal with the hackers until its sorted.

  • Sorry kiddies.... this is the real world. Things arent going to work at the snap of your fingers like it does at home with your parents.

    .

    I'm sorry man, but you shouldn't be assuming your audience are "kiddies." The community is going to be what you perceive it to be, and if they're just "kiddies", we're in trouble.

    Oh come on, you and me both know the majority of the community is less than 18
  • Yea, we feel your pain, happens the same to me, got kicked cuz i used m60, got kicked cuz i used Kriss, got kicked for being ACE in SnD.

    Lately i've been playing with other 3 clanmates, which F12 to help me, and I help them. ***ing QQers, im gonna screenshot them and post here on the forums.

    Ill make a QQ WALL OF SHAME, if anyone does it before me, please send me a pm.
  • Hack patching is beyond Z8's control... XTrap are currently working on a patch for this hack at the moment.

    They could easily make an announcement about that. For example, Saidin stating it's beyond their control in a place everyone can see, and asking us to wait patiently until the situation is resolved and X-Trap patched. How long does it take to make such a news ? Instead, we get a "free items with UGC" news...

    I personnally don't care that much about hackers, since they are everywhere, I just go play in MM or HM (no kick) for the Iron Man ribbon and only do the mission if possible but I can understand people QQing.
    Like Saidin said, things cant be done at the snap of a finger...

    Where did he said it ? An official thread admitting the problem once in a while (when the hackers really get out of control like the one-killfest it is now) isn't too much to ask, is it ?
    Granted its taken a little bit longer but all Z8 has asked from you is a little patience and to play with friends in the meantime... and you rip on them for that?

    Ok, what have we asked Z8 that they answered us ? Suggestions ? We basically make them for nothing since we get absolutely no feedback. Nerfing ? Almost everyone complain(ed) about Shovel, Scar L and M12s but what's the official stance, they don't want to fix/nerf them ? they can't ? No answers (although not nerfing them is kind of an answer).

    The most irritating thing is when A LOT of people ask for something, and we get absolutely no answer. A clear NO would do but most of the times we get nothing. Sometimes, it really looks like the GM simply ignores us since they keep doing event on forums, posting news, etc.
    I think this was the point of this thread. People want to hear from the GM.

    I'm willing to wait forever for a patch (and will have to since hackers will never disappear completely) but do I really have to wait weeks for a word about it from the officials ?

    ps : have you guys encountered the invisible running ghost hack ? Funny thing...
  • never say never...

    XD
    i will sometimes say never...
    I will never say never except in circumstances that require me to say never :D

    That's supposed to be a granted. Patience is a virtue, not something that everybody has, but not something everybody likes. You have to learn to be patient. XTrap is working on a patch, as Giggletron said. A post by a moderator is just as promising as a post from a GM if the moderator has his facts right.

    Also, announcements for free items help everybody, us, and the partners. More money, means happy server host.

    You have made some good points here and displayed it in such a way that it isnt rage, moaning, threatening or hating. Fantastic.. precisely the way people should conducted themselves when requesting information rather than shouting and insulting.

    Unfortunately I cant answer for the GM's but we (Moderators) are the "inbetween-guys" so to speak. We are the connection between you guys and the G4Box staff. Our information comes from them so the information we give on the forums are essentially official. Much like a spokesperson for a celebrity. While we may not be the person you are looking for, we relay the information that you are from that person, for example Saidin.

    For instance, you may notice that we are constantly telling you guys that things are being done, while it may not look like it we are given the necessary knowledge to convey that to you guys as official information from them. GM's cant reply to ever thread complaining about hackers saying the same thing over and over... theyre just too busy... thats why we're here.

    About the suggestions.. They are looked at and if there is sufficient details to back up the reasoning behind a suggestion to make it plausible then it will be looked into futher. Scar Light and M12s have actually had modifications in the way of a rank increase. Obviously this isnt what people hope for but since this is as far as G4box can go with such "nerfing" this will have to suffice until weapon balance becomes higher priority again. As of recent, I think we can all agree that it isnt top priority.
    In *******.. GM's do look at the suggestions. Whether people believe this or not is their problem... its just not publicly discussed.

    I agree more GM interaction is needed as Saidin seems to be the only one doing so but they are just too busy with their own responsibilities in office to be dealing with whiney threads everyday
  • If someone says someone is hacking on my team, I wait until i am dead and they are still alive and I personally see that they are using a hack. I tell them that and they are like are you blind? I sit there and think, I wouldnt know unless I see him just because he gets a multi kill doesnt mean he is hack. I have to see it for myself.

    I think the vote kick should be removed until the community can learn to use it for what it is there for. The number of hackers wont increase due to this as they dont use it on the actual hacker.

    Off topic: smiley i got what you need to relax ;)

    Is it on your clan name?

    @ Giggle
    I know patching hacks is never easy. They will never be gone and they'll get harder to patch as time goes by. I just dont want them to tell us to play in private rooms every time their patching works for just 1 day.

    The thing is, if they want us to get the ribbon, they should first come and experience how bad the community is. How impossible it is to get the ribbon when you get kicked for the stupidest reasons. I can play with friends...no biggy, but after a while its going to get boring. Are we going to do this all the time from now on or what?

    Not blaming you since obviously it isn't your fault. But they (GMs and devs) should really see how things are. The community has a ton of problems (im probably being the same here) and the game has some errors/glitches that haven't been patched for months. Just, if there is a way, I want them to play 1 day to realize how things are in the game.
  • Is it on your clan name?
    Thats more so what I was leaning towards... Can get whatever :p
    (keep in mind doesnt mean I do other things just cuz I have access to them)

    They need to play with the community and not on their test servers.
  • I was playing with you LOLSmiley either yesterday or the day before.

    You got kicked from one game and just "lost" the vote like 10 to 8 or something like that.

    I get kicked often as well. What makes it even a bigger pain in the Arse is that with a hackoutbreak, now noobs are screaming at every time they get killed. If half of these people would save and then watch the darn replay they would see how they are getting killed.

    I guess its easier for them to try and instigate a kick then get some skill.

    I love playing after a new patch and the "old" hacks get patched. People cry hack because they arent hacking at the moment and actually have to "play". Then they realize that they aren't as good as they thought they where without it.

    Thats what I do. If I suspect someone I will save and view for myself and determine on that if they are legit or not.

    When people meet hackers every day, they will doubt everyone they don't know hacks. It is another fact, that someone they know might hacks.

    Take me for example, at the beginning, I don't even know there is hacks until I saw someone flying on sky in df2, but that is still ok. Then I play cs and found someone I think pretty good suddenly rotate fast to kill one that have not even seen (you know that kind of thing). So in cs2 I start to doubt if opponent is hacking if I was killed without time to response. I crossfire, at the beginning I am happy, it is so clean. Then someday I found so many hackers, that makes me doubt any over powered players.

    Unfortunately, most of the time when I save a replay, it is really a hacker. I only have several replay that is too hard to say if it is 1 shot kill, or if it is auto aiming.

    Yeah, my point is, it might be an aftermath of outbreak of hackers. So as l0lsmileyface said, you have to live with being kicked for no reason as you have to live with lots of hackers.

    You are lucky that you still can finish one or two games. I was kicked by host at the beginning of game, after I entered the room at the end of last game and get 0 kill/0detah. So there is totally no reason at all.

    Like I said, I don't need the announcement myself. I know they are working on the problem. I'm just saying that, maybe, a message from the GM about the current situation where they ask us to wait could reduce the frustration (and the QQ thread that goes with it).

    I certainly not meant that they should stop posting those messages, just that if they have time to write them, perhaps they could take the time to make other announcements.

    The reason I was talking about a GM making an announcement isn't because I don't trust the Mods. I know you're as official as a GM and I know that if you don't have an information you will flat out tell us and not start lying or whatever.
    I'm just telling maybe an announcement by a GM would stop or reduce the frustration and have a bigger impact than what the Mods take the time to post regularly.

    I know the good suggestions aren't ignored and I'd rather have GM actually work on bringing these in the game than waste time answering about them.
    The point with suggestions is more : "is there really any chance that one of the suggestions we make here will ever make it into the game at one point ?"
    This isn't even Z8's choice I think but a lot of people are sure it will never happen. Whether it's the case or not perhaps, once again, a GM could tell us.
    I agree more GM interaction is needed as Saidin seems to be the only one doing so but they are just too busy with their own responsibilities in office to be dealing with whiney threads everyday

    I don't expect them to answer every QQ thread nor do I expect them to post messages daily but one big announcement could do. A sort of : "We know how bad the situation is, we are sorry, please be patient we are working on it".
    They could even add a : "Oh and it's X-Trap's fault, bash this b*****d instead of us, thank you." :rolleyes:
  • Oh come on, you and me both know the majority of the community is less than 18

    Yeah but you don't need to make it obvious. And I'm older than 18. Let kids be kids. You're a MOD, be the bigger guy.
  • i swear that sometimes i shoot on legs by purpose just to die to not get kicked
    and guess what? they kick u but keep the real hacker...-_- omg this is so...
  • I honestly don't mind them closing the servers for a few days, maybe a week to get this straighten out a little. I'm sure you'd lose a few hackers along the way anyways if you did that. They can't wait to hack on a game that is down. They're pathetic losers, they'll find other things to do than hack on a game thats not even up and running.

    SO, maybe close servers for updates/patches? I really do not mind at all. Take your time, go offline, make sure no one can get on the servers, close the threads, do the best that you can in that time. What do you think?
  • I wouldn't mind either...but they will. They'll be losing money.

    Btw, thank you mods and admins for no closing this.

    Ghost wasn't I playing with you yesterday?
