So, i played Thunderer in ranked, AP only and this happened towards the end of the game:

 

hacks.png.f178ecdbca815f0cc380db477e2a0037.png

 

Now, by that time, the guy was already sunk minutes ago (by me) and i kinda fail to see where and how the hacking took place.

 

Was it me deleting his Petro point blank while he tried to do the same to me?

Does that mean, deleting a broadside Petro at a range of 3km is hacking??

Was it, surviving a volley from the Vermont by using the "angling hack"?

 

Or deleting said Vermont who gave perfect broadside to dodge DD torps?

 

I have no idea...the only thing that makes sense to me, his ego couldn't handle getting blapped, so he had the great idea to throw around hackusations.

Or he is still a clueless ...WG customer... who after 15k battles in randoms still has no idea what's going on.

 

Anyone willing to get bored by 15mins of gameplay take a look and explain to me, where the hacks took place.

I doubt many who play are fool enough to believe it’s hacking they just don’t like to admit they got out played or RNG was unkind, let’s face it online gaming can be summed up with this:

Reminded me of that one Neptune earlier this year. He also complained almost 5 minutes after i killed him that im cheating. Or maybe it was after i killed his div-mate DD from like 13km :Smile_amazed:

Wow. Some people...

 

I mean, like many others, i think it's kinda funny when you outplay someone or just get lucky and get called cheater as a result because the guy doesn't understand what happened or doesn't want to admit to himself that he fraked up.

 

I posted a screenie in the achievements thread a couple weeks back where i dev striked a smoked up Kutuzov (because blind firing smokes is sooo hard at 10km... ) with the same result.

 

 

But when this happens on a regular basis, it gets old really quick. And in all those occasions, i at least know why the player would react in such a way, like the Kutuzov dude.

 

Or the Thunderer, that camped stationary next to an island and ate all my torps.

 

Or the Surrey that moved forward and backward next an island while being broadside and ate citadels everytime he moved forward. Hey, i ate 2 cits the first time i pocked out, lets try that 4 more times! 

 

Or the Harugumo that slowed down in front of me, smoked up and started dakka-ing my Des Moines at 7km. Cause radar is cheating.

Seems to me, that cheat accusations are through the roof lately, i see pics of that in discord on a daily basis now. But thats what you get when you replace the invested/interested playerbase with clueless idiots.

I mean, if the guy didnt see the Vermont eating the torps from the Halland, it could make sense that he called you a hacker. He maybe assumed you devstruck the Vermont from full HP. :cap_hmm:

 

btw at the end in the battle vs the other Thunderer, i wanted to press "1" myself to load HE :Smile_teethhappy:

Thunderer should use HE as common knowledge says, otherwise it is a cheating, so ticket was understandable :-P

Something like this happened to me a while ago. I was with my Bismarck and I deleted a division of 3 Fiji. The first two with 2 dev strikes from distance. A guy started yelling in chat cheater, aimbot hack and so on. 

No need to say that I told him that everything he said was like medals for me.

I sunk another ship and this guy yelling the whole time.. The most beautiful part was at the end of the game. The last Fiji enters the firing range of my cannons, I let it approach, about 12 km away it starts shooting at me and hides in smoke...

Unfortunately on my bullets I had already written "first hide then shoot".

Volley..

Dev. Strike 3.

More insults, more medals.
It was one of my best moments in wows

Happens on daily basis. Why do you care? Just tell say that you can sell him aswell. Invite him to discuss about the price after the battle and move on.

Certainly does seem to be more cheating claims, and a bit more exotic use of language doubting parentage and suggesting new ways to have sex etc. WG have allowed this to develop by letting people start playing in high tier before they are ready. I also think there is a large wave of frustration being vented at the current meta and general state of the game, by people who have invested money and are not getting the results they expected or finding the boat they have bought doesn't fit the playstyle they are trying to play. There is an awful lot of one playstyle fits all mentality being played by the uninformed.

At least you get reported by enemy team. I got accused and reported for hacking in ranked by Thunderer from my own team.

Average player in this game is du**er then a half baked brick hence any comment made in the game has to be viewed through that prism, sometimes one has to wonder how those people breathe while doing anything else at the same time...

OK after having watched the video, excellent gameplay. Could not find fault in it ... that toon on the Petro came out full broadside from behind an island and expected a cake as welcome or what ? He got what he deserved ... just ignore him ...

Thx. :)

 

But that wasn't the intent, especially since there isn't much (visible and public) content there and the site exists for ages now.

 

I am kinda reliefed and disturbed at how widespread this whole "claim haxxoring" thing has become.

In the past, it was every now and then and we all had a good laugh about it.

 

Reading the experiences of others here, makes me really wonder on how ignorant players are or how frustrated the player base has become.

That WG has never given a sh*t was always given, as the less players know, the less they complain, the more they spend.

 

However, it's getting from occasionally funny to constantly annoying.

Also, lets not forget that there are - usually - other 6-22 players in the same match and not all of them might be aware enough to know that the guy throwing around hackusations, talks nonsense.

Unfortunately those "hackusations" happen quite often, especially during dev strikes, detonations etc.

As mentioned, those are coming only from lower skilled players and any training won't change their mind.

You can also meet plenty of those complainers, just sending reports being sunk etc.

 

Honestly, I would like to see our entire playerbase being much more skillful, but that won't be possible. Those that doesn't want to learn tactics and mechanics deeply, will never learn, unforunately.
