well i thought i had seen it all in this game but since last weekend i am seeing players cheating in the dragon races, this is what i have seen at least a dozen times, i join the race , another player joins the race behind me, then he jumps to the front and goes , while i sit there with a 5 second penaulty , then i get to go and manage to catch him up and he is missing rings all over the place and not getting returned to the start , then to cap it all my flight controls lockup my dragon flys like it is on rails and eventualy i crash into something , now i find due to blizzards useless cheat reporting system giving us the run around i cant even report this properly and have to post here hoping some blizzard employe will pass this post to the blizzard police.
So, you have no proof that heâs cheating.
Make a report to Hacks@Blizzard.com with the details of when this happened and they may investigate it.
How would anyone be able to cheat during a dragon race?
You donât even race against others.
He is clearly talking about multiplayer race.
Thereâs multiplayer races?
Do they share race area with non-multi ones?
You say this like hacks/hacking tools have never been used before in online games to gain advantages. Iâm not saying this definitely is hacking/cheating etc but none of us can decipher what really happened from a forum post.
I only made a suggestion to report it via another method, there isnât much more to suggest to the OP.
What advantages do you get from ââhackingââ in, what might be a single-player race?
yes, multiplayer races pop up on zone map as a checkered flag when theyâre active. Those races wonât start until enough players sign up, The leaders are announced between laps and once the race finishes.
hmm, Iâll check that.
have done tons of dragon race and never seen it before.
know there is normal and then advanced, but have never seen multi race
edit
ahh youâre right, just saw it on wowhead hehe
did not know it existed
Why would you cheat on the dragon races though?
What do you get out of it?
It shows a bigger flag on your zone map, when it is up. Instead of âdragonrider racingâ, its name is ârallyâ. It is like a world event.
I have done few on the 1st month of DF. But donât bothered with it now. almost nobody signs up nowadays.
As well as that, itâs not always easy, but if you can right click the offender and they stay still for long enough, you can report them for cheating
have you read what i posted + if you fly the races youknow damn well that if you join a race and another player joins after you do you go before they do,not after + how does he miss rings and not get recalled , i do the races twice a week with 34 alts so i know how they work , and you need to get a life and learn to read posts properly , you know and i know players cheat at most thing in this game and bilzz dont do anything to stop them.
And if itâs not a multi-race, what gain is there for him to cheat?
Wait what?
Basically nothing. Thereâs just a lot of losers out there. Sad fact.
The first and last part of your reply makes me wonder if that is a correct comeback at someone.
34 alts to do multiplayer races, damn.
Was this other Dragon Rider an italian Plumber? Did he throw a giant banana at you?
An Italian plumber from Japan.
