Guild Wars 2

Just wondering.

What the best course to report such a thing since you can’t always see or target the person doing it?

Would be great if, like in DAOC, game would tell in log a name of player that actually hits you

The problem with reporting is that it may not be a “zoom hack” there are ways around it that have nothing to do with “hacking” You can go into windowed mode and stretch your screen or Eyefinity neither of which are cheating technically but still unfair. That said no reason to start a debate on that there are plenty of threads on that subject.

Inc 1000 more people doing it after reading this.^

If there are ways to shoot an arrow cart from the ground OVER a wall onto the ground on the other side of the wall (besides right at the gate) without using a hack, then aNETneeds to figure out how to counter this with in-game code.

Saw it happen 3 times during the current match-up.

It makes one want to quit playing to see such flagrant cheating going on consistently.

However you do it, if you do something obviously not wanted by developers, thats hacking/cheating…its easy to get angry after enemy ACs red circles start to make rounds inside your tower where they obviously don’t follow LOS rules, and for any MMO company, angry player is bad for business

Meh, After reading the countless threads on this subject in the last few weeks I figure any one that comes to these forums are well aware of these…

I don’t disagree with you, nor am I defending the people doing it. Something needs to be done but it has to be done by anet. Either change the LoS on ACs or what ever. I was only stating that it can be done with out “hacking” Eyefinity is a monitor setup that people commonly use but sadly it gives them a advantage in WvW. Its not really the users fault and personally I don’t hold it against them for using it (since morals in a video game can gray area) Anet just needs to do something about ACs.
