I was talking to a buddy of mine who is a mod on a server I play at quite often. He's a good guy and has been around the community for awhile now. Every often when I play Renegade I get accused of cheating by someone who does not know me of course. Sometimes it can even be a mod who is just abusing his powers. Well, let me go back and say it's more then often. It's about every day I play Renegade. I don't mind it, it's quite funny sometimes. When mods start asking about me and want to see a screenshot I always comply. It's actually gotten so bad, I usually take an SS every game just for insurances purposes. I even uploaded an album of all my screenshots at http://annextrunks.com/Renegade/screenshots.html. Anyway, my point is...well it's a question really. Anyone else go through the trouble I go through? I'll do really good and someone will say.... "ZomG, Haxxor n00b wit your cheats!" Of course, that get's peoples attention, mods too and if they don't know/trust me I get hasseled. It only really pisses me off when they kick/ban without warning or asking for a screenshot or testing me. Sure has changed around here. It's like a marriage now. Find a server and settle down lol.

That happens to anyone with skill in this game.

Happened to me all the time back when I played regularly. The worst time was just before Renguard came out, because cheating was rampant with no way to prove it. I was on the banlist of probably like half of the popular servers around that time.

Got banned from The Pits a few times. Ah, that was fun.

No, but I try not to kill anybody or score a whole lot of points. I've been accused of cheating plenty of times, but I have only been tested once. I got a 65, but that's a passing grade in that region.

LOL I almost never get accused of cheating, but then again, I'm a tanker, not a sniper, so maybe that's why Very Happy

Heck, it's even happened to me.

A n00bstories moderator even accused me the first time I joined under a different nick when my usual one was experiencing the "nick bug". And that was years ago.

It was fun though.

You have no idea the kind of trouble I get with this. I've been banned from the EoE, Black-Cell, Black-Brigade, The KOSs2, EVO-GAMERS, LTROUSH, FnFall, UNRULES, Ren-Archive, and St0rm gaming networks, along with many others that I can't remember and don't exist anymore. All for "cheating." It's pretty fucking annoying.

Sometimes I get accused so much that I begin to believe I actually am cheating.

Right before I stopped playing Renegade so much, I was beginning to become god-like with vehicles. I knew the terrain REALLY well and was able to out smart many drivers. I was getting accused of cheating every once and a while too. Not that I'm flattering myself or anything though. But now I pretty much lost all of that skill. I guess I finally got that good by playing Renegade for two years. It just sucks that it's gone now.

!rg NukeIt15
Host: NukeIt15 is running RenGuard!

And just like that, problem solved. If that isn't good enough as proof, I'm only too happy to accept a ban and go play on a better server.

Ren is like riding a bike...it all comes back. I hadn't played in two years when I logged on at the beginning of the summer, but I got back into the swing of things after a few days. After the first few games I got back to the good old days of going a whole game without losing my vehicle once, repairgun-whipping myself up to MVP the next... Laughing

I'm not sure if RenGuard has ever stopped someone from thinking I cheat.

The people at MP are dying to know which cheat I use... Sarcasm I don't even know what they accuse me of, everytime I ask how I'm cheating, they won't answer me. Sad But other than that, I basically only play on servers that most of the time can tell the difference between cheating and skill.

Tell them you use S00p3rPwNzj00r455b0t. See how long it takes them to figure it out, laugh like an idiot if they ban you anyway.

If you get banned from a server because you refused to provide more proof than active RG use, the server wasn't worth playing in to begin with (and probably not running RG itself).

Considering some cheaters combine final renegade with the RG bypass, I think your statement that RG is enough proove, fails. RG is a good filter but just not enough until 1.04 makes it through.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

How long is it gonna be before that comes out? i mean, most of the good players will have been harassed from the game and it won't be worth playing.

That's special, much like you it's special. Isn't the c130 vehicle drop a cinematic scene?

No, it's a neutral vehicle. With some of Cyberpunk's old cheats, you could destroy it.


whoa.

It must not be very strong, My weapon wasn't even set to take away much damage at all, It took 5 shots to destroy a tank, and probably five shots to take out the Cargo plane.

I wonder if it was ever meant to be destroyed, I found a death animation for the Plane in Ren.
