I can not take the lag that these idiots are causing. I am praying for the patch to be public soon.
I do not see why DA can not realease the bete version to anyone who wants it.

Any cheat that gives you an edge over the npc or players should be illegal.

Umm dude, get a life.

So if everyone can use guns to kill people it should be legal right? (Hint Think about your logic first)

Mods are cheating. Not everyone is "Computer Savy" enough to use Mods. Mods unbalance the game. Mods do regularly crash the server. Mods cause additional lag. Lets see, the network code is optimized for a certain max speed, certain max weapon loadout, ship size, ect... You come in with a Nomad ship flying at speeds that were not the default. Surprise, you have just caused massive lag and are hitting my bandwidth amazingly hard. Not the mention the performance of the game on other peoples systesm, thus causing an overall decrease in the game experience for all players involved, but yourself.

Also while your opinion is that since everyone can use mods, it is fair to use them to fight other players. What about the players that are not savvy enough to use mods, or want to play fair and have in game skillz decide who is better? Do you still see this as fair?

Either way, you are banned so...

Don't worry he's not referring to you. Return of Raider is the one that thinks that using cheats is fair.

Just gotta giggle about this.

I was playing along nice and peaceful on the Browclopse server, then someone new comes on. Suddenly I'm seeing the red connect icon flash at me. Eh? I ping at about 100ms, and should have a good 200+k/sec down, 15k+up. I contact the newest player, and ask them about cheating.... they deny having any cheats/mods.

They leave (for who knows what reason). Gameplay returns to normal (no connection warnings, no ships jumping from location to location). Couple mins. later they come back.... Server is hit, but not quite as hard, only Yellow connect warnings. I'm again told they're not using any cheats/mods (without asking about it)*L*.

I mean, like EVERY OTHER PLAYER ON THE SERVER can't tell you're using a mod/cheat! It absolutely NAILS the server performance. Everybody BUT the cheater is screwed in terms of playability. I can't even begin to understand how this can even be even vaguely approved by any vaguely honest player. (I want to say more on this pathetic situation, but I'm not finding the words I want to use, so I quit trying).

Leave it at this:
You cheat in any way on the MP servers, you screw over (about) 30+ other players for a while, even if you never attack/kill them. Fun? Yeah, for you, marginally. For the rest of the gamers? You just screw up their playing time. Think about it, then look in the mirror and consider how you'd feel if YOU were just a player and suddenly you couldn't really play anymore. Yeah, think. I know it's a foreign concept, but try to step outside the ego for a second and realize what you're doing to other people.

Done, flame, and prepare for Asbestos replies : )

the server is down again..... i hope its down to patch it or something....
