Incendiary Rounds/Infernoe grenade glitch

Never heard of that one. Tell me more. Stikman pls


The full damage of the grenades is applied over 3 seconds instead of intended 8, if I remember right. You just have to shoot the target with incendiary rounds after the grenade is thrown.

Bioware has stopped the bans. They will say they didn't, but If they have stopped making balance changes, they have stopped banning too. I takes time and resources to investigate each case. 


If they have stopped banning cheaters on reports, what makes you think they will ban a cheater because you over expose him ?
wouldn't that mean that the only thing you are doing is creating drama ?

 

Well I heard from somebody that Brojo personally investigated Link and capped him in the skull. 


Link was headshot slightly before the end of service for ME3, the question is can it still happen now that the service has ended ?

And more importantly look at all the collateral damage exposing just one cheater has already done to this community, so even if it still worked, are you ready to worsen the situation every time you want a cheater to be headshot ?

 

You take this way too seriously. The MP is on it's last legs (actually many would call it dead). There were numerous threads exposing how you can cheat by capping your FPS, which is directly Bioware's fault. And many people on old compurers are playing a different game than those who play at 60 FPS. 

There are TONS of ways to hack and exploit it. Many of them very easy and I'm 99% sure - untraceable and people won't even notice them.  

So. If you want to avoid being hackused now or to avoid more "collateral damage" - make a good video with FPS showing, with builds intact. And for that measure - start recording on Desktop, check for updates at Origin for ME3 to make sure it's the default Coalesced, show the Task Manager and System Tray. 

Then you can go and play. That will stop the accusations.

Or just play, yell YOLO, and not give a damn about accusations. :D

It's not like legit players should care about them anyway (or about the adulation given by others for that matter).

EDIT:

A WILD STENTRON APPEARS!

Here is the relevant thread.

There is a section with Incendiary + Inferno Grenade data.

The "real world" and competitive gameplay are two different matters. A better analogy would be investigative reporters exposing corruption vs. someone investigating accounts and/or videos to expose cheating/modding. Without investigative reporters, many of the injustices that occur would not have been known. In fact, due to investigative reporting, we have the USDA that standardizes meat so that we all don't get sick from horrible strands of bacteria due to unregulated meat. Does the recent "horse meat in burgers" scandal ring a bell?

Leaving it up to officials isn't always a good option either. In 1989, Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson was stripped of his gold medal during the olympics and it was given to Carl Lewis, an american sprinter. Yet Carl lewis was also caught with banned substances and wasn't disqualified. Just one huge example, of officials not always doing what their job is intended to do


Investigation reporter actually investigate and collect proof before acusing someone.
And when they accuse someone they don't create a hundred different articles, only one first page in a journal is enough.


erm.... perhaps the "accusation" thing is mudding things up a bit. An investigative reporter will have a "hunch" about wrong doings long before they can verify the proof. The internal accusation always happens long before the proof arrives, whether that is with scientific evidence/studies, or gaming.

what we have seen here is quite different, we have seen Hackusation before proof, and we have seen Ruthlessness before self moderation.

your point would be valid if in here people would expose cheater without creating collateral damage, exept that by accusing before having proof and by being ruthless, it has also done worse to this community for what result only 1 ban.


maybe. I get that you are more concerned about what impact this sort of "hackusation" attitude will have on the community. Yet there is no currently acceptable alternative solution. The underlying theme in all of this is understanding what constitutes a "legitimate" speedrun solo? That is the fundamental question. What air quotes did/does challenges what people consider legitamate, and disabuses people from accepting things at face value, which they should. At this point in time, there doesn't seem to be another acceptable way to address that question. Edit: Air Quotes posted what some standards could be used to make a "legitimate" speedrun video that

that is an awesome result you got there, what is the next step ?, making this subforum the same as the romance subforum for a couple of new bans ?


^this is just another slippery slope argument

sure thing fellow BSNer Paynez.

When you throw an infnero grenade and use incendiary rounds, it will ramp up the dps of the DOT, especially when using a fast firing gun (hurricane, ppr, harrier, etc.)

Throw two inferno grenades at a full barrier/armor banshee on gold, then shoot her with the ppr with incendiary rounds, and watch it eat her alive. Try the same thing with disruptor/phasic/drill/warp/ap and it won't be the same


What happens is - the damage of the inferno grenades normaly applied over 8 second duration gets mixed up with incediary ammo DOT and is applied during 3 seconds (much faster) instead ... Total damage is relatively the same only applied much faster (different from the warp incendiary ammo interraction where total damage skyrockets ) ... Also allows combined DOT effect - incendiary ammo to damage to defences it shouldn't do any damage to - shields and barriers ... Will also get inferno grenades multiplier vs armor (up to * 2.25) instead if the regular *1  incendiary ammo has vs armor...

That is exactly what i said, considered guilty until proven innocent, the exact contrary as what justice is based on

Also capping your FPS to 30 is not a cheat, it is just making sure you have the same AI and shield regen that console players have.

you sure knows what double standards means, because you seem to apply it very well.

Thank you
 
i was going to put "it does all damage in 3 seconds vs. 8" but couldn't remember if that was correct, so i jsut put "ramps up DPS" to protect myself. Image IPB

That's nonsense.  Even if it were identical to console players, artifically limiting the FPS is essentially cheating because you are purposefully manipulating the AI with the intent to make the game easier for yourself.

I'm not arguing that 30 FPS IS the intended difficulty and that's how the game should be played. But still. You're playing a DIFFERENT game than those at 60.

That is where i don't agree, i am not making it easier, i am making sure that the difficulty i am playing is the same as what it was intended when it was coded.

Also, console are also limiting the FPS while they could sometimes go higher, that is the same mechanism, the difference is that the game has been proorly coded in that specific aspect and that if you want the same experience you have to do what a console naturally do by itself.

For me it is not cheating, and Devs has not stated that it was cheating either, that is just a standard you want to want to be applied.


But if you are so sure of yourself that it is cheating, i am playing 30 fps since the thread that uncovered how fps imacted gameplay came up, so just go ahead and report me, i am pretty sure i won't have any problem at all.

That is speculation since none of the devs specifically said that 30fps was the intended framerate on PC.  There are vague statements in the past that they felt that they were balanced due to control differences.  Likely given that the PC config tries to get it to run with VSync, they intended it to run mainly around 60fps.

Also, console are also limiting the FPS while they could sometimes go higher, that is the same mechanism, the difference is that the game has been proorly coded in that specific aspect and that if you want the same experience you have to do what a console naturally do by itself.

For me it is not cheating, and Devs has not stated that it was cheating either, that is just a standard you want to want to be applied.

They also didn't say it was "clever use of game mechanics."  The only reason they were not on that is because they would be hard pressed to determine if someone was artificially limiting fps or if they had slow hardware.

But if you are so sure of yourself that it is cheating, i am playing 30 fps since the thread that uncovered how fps imacted gameplay came up, so just go ahead and report me, i am pretty sure i won't have any problem at all.

Whatever.

I'm not blaming you. I'm not even blaming Link. I blame Bioware for being lazy and/or stupid and not having server side Coalesced for MP. I'm blaming them for not having basic anti-cheat protection. I'm blaming them for tying the A.I. directly to FPS.  

In the end - It's Bioware to blame. People will ALWAYS try to take advantage of things and cheat in any way they can for e-peen boost.

Having served as a juror my perspective is a little different. What you say is techinically true. But when you serve as a juror you know nothing bout the case. They also make sure you're not biased, yada yada

In this case, many of us have become biased & prejudiced. We (myself and some others) would not be allowed to be jurors.

So, from my point of view, this has nothing to do with the justice system. It's all just opinions, etc

this is true, unfortunately.

I dun see the instances of biotic evo smash one-shotting that AQ mentionned for this particular vid, but I agree completely w/ the FPS and coalesced issues. BW did good for their first major MP outting, but they have much, much to improve on, and since adressing glitchers and cheaters has been such a hassle for them and the players for this game, one can only imagine they'll be more cautious in the future.
