Guild Wars 2

I am getting tired of this, this is the many of countless times I have witness hacking in WvW this time, it was a hack cap, where the enemy teleported into the Lords room and wipped the lord and capped without breaking any walls or gates, you at Anet need to deal with this and punish servers for such acts and I am sorry but Gates of Madness this is uncalled for you are supposed to be mature and respect others and play the game the way its meant to be played not condone such hacks by your top guilds.

and if this gets locked and removed then I am seriously going to ign about this issue on guild wars 2.

I’m on GoM and I have to agree. I checked out our keep and no walls were down, nor were there any gates open. If you can play without hacking don’t play at all. The guild I’m talking about knows who they are.

yep well there is a lot of hacks that are annoying.speed teleport are simply wrong, but what i really disslike is multiboxing. u meet 1 guy controling around 5 characters and boom u get hit by 5 people at the exact same time=insta downed….
but we will see if anet will find a solution which is not that easy to find. u cant just report and then expect an insta ban. so what if someone wants a commander that is good being taken out and then reports for hacking with his friends and that commander gets insta banned. so that button can also be abused.
well anet sure knows of all those hacks and multiboxers, but to fix all that they need time and lots of programming+ also a system which cannot be abused by griefers, etc.
so im sure that one will take a lot of time, but im as frustrated as u are. too bad bad players need those tricks to feel somewhat accomplished.

I appreciate someone from the server admitting this. :]

Anet refuses to do anything about it because they buy gems. a certain server is notorious for this and anet ignores it.

Hacks progress faster than the security measures that are designed to stop them. Cyber security is always playing catchup. You’ll never get a hack free game.

DH took the keep and swords were only on it after about 15-20 minutes had passed. If there was a mesmer, he/she could have said so while they were taking the keep and could have ported a group of us in there.

Good mesmers don’t just port anyone…

Can’t let trade secrets get out

If you are talking about the red keep in EB….
I was the mesmer who ported people into your keep twice in a row using the same hiding spot each time.
I also used the same AC in veloka after 3 caps on the cliffside cause no one swept it.

Then I chilled out with a few DR warriors at their spawn as a quaggan for a while

I play pretty regularly on GoM and have never seen hacking or exploiting .-.

Do I need to get out more? (r870 account-wide)

GOM has been hacking today DH BL for quite a while.

We run a tight knit community and I can’t say that we have never hacked, because it has happened, but when it does and another server has pointed it out, we have taken action to put a stop to it. We would rather lose than use hacks to catch up and win.

Funny how it’s easier to cry hacks than it is to admit that you weren’t able to do proper mesmer sweeps or keep up with having multiple groups ravaging your keeps on a constant basis. smh

I know right. Instead of howling hacks from GoM, try to find a way to defend your borderlands from roaming groups. Something that most of the competition that faces GoM knows prides itself for. Roamers.

A thought occurred. Darkhaven, you do know you are blue for the week, right? Not green.

While you have a point, we have to look at all options. We can’t just say “Well mesmer this, mesmer that…”

GG at Darkhaven Garrison. At least your trying.

And I suppose we “hacked” waypoints into all three of your keeps this morning, right?

We should probably stop, since this is getting off-topic towards more of a match-up type thread.

I think we have established the fact we didn’t hack into the Darkhaven keeps or anything else in their borderlands. For anything else that happened in EB or another borderland, if you have more info on a particular player that hacked, say so and we will deal with it.

To the OP, the majority of GoM agrees that such hacks, especially certain hacks (plural) for Bay that many servers have taken advantage of, including ours, that need to stop and be fixed. But there are very few servers that still practice such methods and when it happens they put a stop to it, even by reporting their own players.

I dont think its as insidious as that.

Its simply that arenanet cannot do anything about it. They designed the game by giving the client way to much “power”. And im fairly sure they lack sophisticated log systems to actually backtrace if someone has been cheat, hacking or glitching.

btw I am from Darkhaven Server not DR, Darkhaven were victims of a hack cap.

Also GoM was hacking for your information and their are those who have video recording evidence along with 25+ witness’s that were in those keeps to defend them, and nothing was down not walls not gates, and no mesmers were in them at all for we held our keeps for 6 hours with wp’s in them so we would have known if their was a mesmer, that Hack Capping is childish, and do to the rules of forum I cannot speak of which two guilds performed such hacks that belong to the GoM server.

I’ve waited in keeps for over an hour even with friendly zergs on the map. I am very particular about who I port into a keep to ninja it. If you port too many, odds are they’ll pop swords and give it away. If the enemy finds you using a mesmer portal, they start to sweep EXTRA hard. I tend to only port in groups of 5-10 of players that I know and can trust won’t kitten it up. The only time I port a zerg into a keep is if its a guild group, and its a guild that I know can accomplish the task.

I’ve waited long enough the walls were T3 in a keep, and there were claims of hacks, so I posted screenshots every time I saw an upgrade go down. Some mesmers are just patient Yes, there are plenty of hacks in this game, from my experience, if a keep gets taken without anything down, its 90% of the time a missed mesmer.

You guys know it going to take ANet a year to fix the hacking.

Okay Gates of Madness if you are truly against hacking, then someone with high athority over your WvW needs to message me ingame so I can inform you of what 2 guilds used the Hack Cap program to gain our bay and hills, for their were no mesmers in bay or hills we sweep everything and hit every spot and held them for 6 hours like I said and we would have noticed a portal, but their was none Bay was Insta capped in a matter of 2 seconds with no mesmer involved as they just teleported randomly to lords insta wipped the lord and insta capped, same with hills, no mesmer involved, tapped gate, then tp right on top of the lord no mesmer portals and lord was insta down and the keep was insta capped in a matter of .5 seconds, and yes I timed all of this.

I was there and witnessed the whole thing. The commander called for everyone to stack up and then they all activated rams.exe on your gates, sometimes up to as many as four times per gate. This happened multiple times throughout the night on several of the maps, even our own.

This must be reported to IGN immediately! I’d offer to help you out in-game, but DH has accused me of using aimbot before, so my reputation may be a little sullied.

If there is video sniperman, where is the video?

You can’t claim hacking and have video evidence and not show a video of it being done.

All I am gonna say is that there was coordination, not hacking. If you can’t tell the difference, you need your eyes checked.

Hacks or not, its no excuse for allowing a 15 man GoM group in your borderland to waypoint your three keeps and fortify both Bay and Hills in 6 hours.

Sandie.1964:

I have never seen an endless supply of arrow carts, I did see the hack that GOM used to take a fully upgraded Bay then Hills. I watched from the wall as GOM hit the south bay door, then the zerg went and hid in the camp. As i was checking the door for damage the Lord instantly died and the circle capped. I then proceeded to way point to hills where we had defenders covering all outer doors. As i arrived at the hills way point the GOM zerg was running out of the lords room having instantly capped that. This is not 1 player or even 2 this is 30 plus people on GOM server following a hack. This needs to be addressed before the new season starts. We lost a lot of good people last night to this behavior.

As being the PROUD leader of the guild that was at S Bay that supposedly “auto-teleported” into the lord’s room and “insta-killed” him, here is video of the entire encounter (including the map chat planning and TS audio) : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7gan5s6MOA I have to say DH, that for calling hacks and claiming you have all of this footage, I only see proof of the guild being blamed that “hey, we didn’t hack, we just have more than one team doing things on a map when we’re going for waypointed keeps.” Now please, quit QQing. And Mepheles, don’t act like a seasoned GoM veteran, you’re from DH (my whole guild knows since we originated on DH) and you just transferred here recently. I’m not going to blindly state what your actions are, but if you truly hope to be a member of GoM, don’t blindly call hacks on your own server.

Well I watched the whole video, it sure dosnt show the capping or the talented mesmers that portaled the other group that capped inner. Where is he part where you capped hills 25 seconds later? So your trying to say 2 mesmers stayed hidden, one on inner and one for outer. The other half of your zerg ran all the way around the back and got portaled in. But of course you dont have video of the capping of either Bay or Hills as that would just prove our point.

Read the chat at 2:30 in the video, clearly states we have a team at Hills too. I’m sorry our server has more than 40 people online? I’m not sure what kind of response you expect. I am one person, I can’t record both. And neither capture was a mesmer, you were just too tied up watching us at S Bay. If you notice during the cap, you have a good 30 people just standing behind S Bay gate, not our fault you were just standing there. I mean it’s nearly a 12 minute video, do you think it takes that long for a mesmer port? Of course not, both our teams broke down the gates unopposed because you were distracted.

It’s called using superior flame rams. You do realize you are making yourself look like an idiot, right?

Also, you keep QQing for videos of every single team we had in your BL, but you can’t show us any of the video proof that you claim to have of us hacking into Bay? Ridiculous.

Until the accuser provides tangible proof, this matter will remain unresolved.

I was in wvw at the time the “hacking” started, though I did not see the specific incident that started this. At the time I was in Bay which dh controlled as well as Hills where map chat indicated it occurred. The youtube video posted was from some other time as GoM was ticking in the mid 300’s when map chat started to go bonkers about what was going on. What was said that there was 1 ram thrown down on a outer gate at Hills and on a reinforced gate it hit it 3 times and the gate was down. Then suddenly the whole zerg was at the Lord’s room and insta killed him.

I didn’t see this happen as I was on the other side of the map but what I did see was the entire dh bl map was flipped green in about 5 minutes against about the same number of people as GoM was attacking with. This was odd as all day all 3 servers were ticking points in the same 200-250 range when suddenly GoM spiked up to the mid 300’s from taking much of eb then sweeping dh and ticking near 500. I know scores like that can happen but not when all 3 servers appear to have roughly the same number of people playing. Today the scoring was pretty much even all day.

I cannot say for certain if it was hacking or not as I don’t know what hacks are even used or how they are used or how limited it is used. I just know how odd the ease and speed of the map wipe went. I have never seen it go that fast even when we are outmanned on the map and a large zerg shows up and marches around it taking everything like other servers have done to us other weeks or when we do it to others, it takes longer than that with zero fight back.

Personally I don’t have any video or pics to show this as I never take them, why would I want to watch some old wvw play when I could play it or pve instead.

Last night at that time we weren’t running in one big group. We had 2 separate groups of ~10 people hitting multiple objectives at once. We didn’t experience any resistance while capping your whole map because it appeared the bulk of your numbers were in EB. It wasn’t until about 10 to 15 minutes later that you showed up with 25-30 people to try and take back your Garrison.

sniperman.1738:

You do realize people in your own guild and people that were with your zerg even say witness and have admitted and confessed to your hacking that your own people even say you hack capped them, that obviously when your own people who were their witness it and come to this topic and even posted that you hacked it says something that one videos are not proof do to video editing software and two when people from those guilds and that were in your zergs posted here in this topic what you guys were doing and even confessed that you hack capped only makes GoM sound ignorant and incoherent of their own actions that these two guilds were and are known for hacks in the past as their are several threads from the past about GoM Cap hacking keeps, theirfore what you are saying is invalid, remember not everyone on your server condones hacking and when they come forward on this topic like they have it only proves your childish lying to save your own hide from getting banned along with your guild being disbanded.

First of all, you have shown no proof to your accusations and quite frankly if you are serious about these allegations then you would have no problem in providing a video or a screenshot, which leads me to believe this is a simple cry of ‘GoM can’t be this good it must be hacks’ which, I guess you learned a valuable lesson last night.

Second, if you really want this to be brought to our attention formally and maturely then feel free to message Styx or myself and we will make sure it’s addressed as we do take accusations of people on our server hacking seriously, but again you need to have some back up to these claims. Coming to us saying, ‘You need to stop your people from hacking’ isn’t grounds enough for us to take some real action.

As far as this goes, all I can tell you was we were not running in one large force last night and met with little to no resistance from you, and what little of you there was was kept distracted enough for us to take your stuff. You fell for our tactics and we came out ahead, it happens . As far as what we came up with and executed last night was nothing but a lot of well timed caps and a lot of coordination. Better luck next time.

Oh hey, the official forums finally got interesting again!

Hi Sniperman:

I used your server as a test of a strategy. I walked up to your gates in an alpha golem solo during a slow game period and knocked the outer gates on hills and bay down to around 5%. Those gates were never repaired.

They stayed like that for well over an hour because I came back to check. I don’t doubt that they were like that at prime time as well.

This may be the answer to your mystery gates that drop with one hit from the mighty flame ram of doom.

I do not like releasing this piece of fairly simple strategy to your server, as it will make it much harder to walk up to your gates with an alpha golem and snap flip your keeps in the future, but I dislike it when people just decide everything in the world must have been cheating.

This is a strategy I have been trying to get our server to use, and had to show it to be practical in real world situations. Its something I learned from AR. (That people simply do not check gates if they are not down and there haven’t been swords)

Cheers.

Yep. I really dislike saying anything because I built a whole plan around it, but I’m tired of hearing my server mates called cheaters because people are too stupid to check their gates.

Don’t you worry, I will think of something else SF :p

No, i totally get ya. It’d be fine if they posted their proof, but as it stands there is none. And really, if there were these hacks, why u no use them on us.
