better damn reporting process for cheaters

[Hansolo80]

Get pulled instantly out of hyper space. Temprature goes crazy real fast into 300./ 400. Dropped with no shields. ( in.the middle of space by a human player. Because I died instantly was unable to report. On respawn.no names of the person who whispered me "I will die instantly from hyper drop".

Out of the 200 n so.FDS drops both by players and NPC I have never experienced this. Let alone the mugs mocking message before pulling. (Also hoe can he type and follow a chase vector???)

Will Frontier refund my ship cost? Nope
will the refund my cargo value?... nope
will they even ban the cheating moron? Probably not.

2nd cheater encountered and it's not even been a month.

Not impressed or happy.

How do you supose they are cheating i have never seen anything but minor damage due to an interdiction are they dropping you close to a star?

 

[Hansolo80]

400ls from a star. Just about to drop out of fds at a station for refuel. All of the above was accurate. He messaged me and told me it would happen before it happened.

Highly unimpressed.

On two separate occasions I have been nearly auto-interdicted with hardly any opportunity to reach escape vector

on both occasions the culprits were NPC imperial clippers and I reasoned that they were equipped with pretty powerful interdictors, not surprising give size of ship etc

likely you were pulled by a large top end interdictor and suffered heavily for it

Highly unimpressed.

what were you in at the time and what was he in?

the fact he told you before hand just means he had done it before and new the results

Mate,

I've been pulled by anacondas instantly and from fighting the vector. Nothing like this.

What is sussy is the cocky."you'll die instantly from dropping" message prior to drop. As if they kniw some sort of glitch / exploit. Has anyone ever been dropped with no shields? Instant 200% heat rising to 400% astronomically. Ive seen heat rise slower near a Sun and still kept my shields at 200% heat damage.

Not going to be convinced this was a non exploited pull.

Transporter type 6. As for him I died un 3-4 seconds. Quicker than it takes someone to arm and shoot. His beam laser took the last 5%.

So never got a chance to see what it was, 2 beam turrets were shooting at the last few moments.

Also adding:

I had 0 bounty. 0 fines. And 200k of cargo which instantly exploded. The only gain was the kill to add to a kill rank in turn to win a cash prize maybe???

You should definitely raise a ticket for this.
I'm sure at the least FD keep chat logs so would be able to find the person and potentially work out what happened.
Or at least add some logging to get to the bottom of it. Inevitably there will be some exploits discovered on release that will need closing.
I expect FD will be back in full force form the 5th of Jan and have a massive backlog to work though but it's well worth reporting this kind of thing.

Happy new year mate. Sorry for the late reply, understandable and frustrating that there are always bugs n exploits on a games release.

I did report it as last person to kill me after it happened, hopefully their logs will pick the resy up .
