trashcanman Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 I just started flying online having finally gotten broadband. Apologies if this is a noob qstn, but reviewing the log after a most enjoyable session on the VS504 server I noticed a Mig29 was using MICA missiles. This can't be right surely..?? or am I missing something? I took a screenshot - I've covered the names up. This is surely cheating - or am I missing something?

KuostA Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Big factor right here; was his name possibly "hungarojet" by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaDave Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Is what it would look like if someone were flying a Mirage 2k shape and weapons swap online? CanadaDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Yep, this is someone using the 'mirage mod'. THis iwll not longer be possible supposedly as of 1.1, sinceit pushes the server's meinit ot the client.

Guest Cali Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 It's pretty sad that they have to cheat CAUSE THEY SUCK!!! Practice you bunch of dumbbutts!!! :evil: maybe that will help you. you people ruin the game for others that want to have a good time. Go somewhere else and screw around like that with all your buddies. If I took the screen shot I wouldn't have blanked out the person's name. I would of let everyone see who he/she was.

Nasder Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 That MICA looks like a cheat... But the fuel tank I don't know... I have downed people on my own server with my ECM pod according to the briefing, but it was a AIM-9. That fueltank could be a misscommunication between server and client. But I don't know, I find it funny though. Think of the accuracy! Dropping fueltanks! *THUD* Splash one! /Nasder, "I came, I saw, I got shot down."

Fair enough, there are some people like Hungarojet who seem to cheat all the time, but there are others who spend so much time modding and swapping about different mods that they forget they are using one when they go online. Its an automatic "click click click" and you are off, the pit is the same and externals are locked on most servers so you'll never know. It just doesn't register until you check the debrief yourself. I've been up a few times with inadvertant mods before, everything from Shepski's real weapons mod to the F/A-18 mod and a few others to boot, and people have been very polite in pointing out that I'm using a mod. I log off, restore my backups and log on again, no problems. The forcing of the servers files onto the client is something some of us think is much needed for this reason. Not everyone is a cheater, some people simply forget they are mid-mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fellblade Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 Is it me, or is Hungarojet also really, really laggy some of the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
504Goon Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 I would like to apologize on behalf of whole VVS 504 Attack Squadron for this. Cheating is absolutely not tolerated on our server. trashcanman, please check your PM. 504th CO http://www.vvs504.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaDave Posted March 7, 2005 Share Posted March 7, 2005 If he's using the Mirage mod, then he may not even realize he's doing anything wrong. Even if he is aware he's using the mod, he may not realize that everyone else sees him as a MiG with inappropriate weapons. There's a big difference between maliciousness and incompetence. Of course, either way the problem will soon be solved. CanadaDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trashcanman Posted March 7, 2005 Author Share Posted March 7, 2005 Thanks all for confirming my suspisions. For the record the *gentleman* in question was not hungarojet. Maj Goon I have emailed you the screenshot, no need to apologise. Good to hear that in v1.1 this sort of thing will be eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know 1 server that allows them to be used, so if your flying in that server it is fine to use them. Me and a few told him they were removed but he didnt care. It is HIS server and he makes the rules. I liked them but when they were removed from lock on with the 1.02 patch, I haven't used them since. Why did you say " I bet you don't take it as cheating." ?

Guest DeathAngelBR Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 I'm the one who contacted Ice about one 169th member using the R-27AE. According to him and the rest of 169th, "if the server allows cheating, we will cheat". :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cali Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Obviously not the case when I warned Ice about it :roll: Like I said if the server allows using the EA/AE will will use them also. When we were in that server we told the host 1,000 times that they took that missile out because they never used it. He said that they did use it and so would he. Ice said it's his server and he can do whatever he wants, we didn't stay in there long after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
