Hello,
I started playing on PS4 in an official server #3587 and I have come across what seems to be a player with admin privileges which he/she is abusing. I am not the only person in the server that has come across this player and at first we thought it was a coincidence but now i have saved a video of an incident that clearly shows admin privileges or hacking for example teleporting or lagging, not losing any health in combat and kicking players off the server or restarting the server itself. We have had numerous times that players get booted from the server except the clans that the player is aligned with then they lag the server and bomb bases of new players and tell them they own the server. At first i thought it was friendly competition as this is not my first pvp survival game but then i started noticing these “coincidences”. I just want to know how i can report an admin or if maybe g portal can please look into this as most of us have already invested money into this game which we like to have other players have an unfair advantage in an official.
Official servers don’t have admins. There may be an admin password set on the servers, but that has never been confirmed to my knowledge.
When it comes to players/clans that has seemingly endless supplies, it is always possible that a clan has setup a type of supply line that allows them to accumulate massive supplies.
As for lag, maybe DDos? It is not possible to know without witnessing the offense.
On my way who am I looking for which clan ,anyone wanna come show them who’s server it Is.
I thought I was the only person having issues on that particular server. Just yesterday, myself and two friends kept getting kicked from the server at the same time. Every time we’d get into the server, it was always the same 4 clans, and then we’d get kicked again. The server wasn’t full, and it would be a crazy coincidence that all of our connections would fail at the same time, especially since we don’t live near each other.
i have a video of one of the members literally just taking hits from me with no damage and im lvl 60 with a strength build and he was just standing and attacking no lag whatsoever so definitely either an admin or a hack
We appreciate it man our clan has been trying to help a lot of the new players that get on the server because they literally let them establish for a day or two then wipe them out or strong arm them so we are just trying to establish an actual community on the server. Cool PVP i get it to wipe out and take but not to abuse and scare away new players which can be potentially bad reviews for the game itself
Ganjika420 just joined I like me some bullies
i dont mind taking down bullies and i love the competition but when they got Cheats on their side just kinda ruins it for everyone.
what is the time zone?
Eastern Standard time for me but we have players from central and west coast as well
I get the whole PvP thing, but it’s no fun when Every thing comes to a halt on my end and they’re just ripping me apart. I’m wired and the connection is decent. I only have issues when they’re around
Unfortunately there are not active Admin/GMs for the official servers so little action is taken by Funcom except in extreme cases with indisputable evidence. The best chance I think you will have of getting this resolved is to send the evidence to one of the community managers.
You might need to have your account privileges upgraded so you can send direct/private messages.
Therefore I will send a nudge to @Ignasi to draw his attention to this thread so he can help you get in touch with him privately.
It is most likely the thread will be closed after he has so please do not take offence but follow up with the community management team in direct messages.
There is an exploit hunters form you can fill out but Funcom do say that this is specifically to report exploits and not individual players.
All of my friends and I were just booted from the server again. It then took several minutes for it to appear in all of our server lists, and wouldn’t you know, the bullies were all still on. I took screen shots
Trust me all the players on the server appreciate the help cause these guys are literally trying to run the server but by either cheating hacking or exploiting and trust me we have concrete evidence i even have video evidence which includes player names
Additionally to what @Kwalya mentioned, if there’s suspicions of DDoSing, make sure also to get in contact with G-Portal and/or Sony.
To clear any confusion, we don’t have server admins on official servers, nor any admin password.
You know what is going on and why they are DDoSing. Do something about it. The attempts to dupe god coins continues because of this. Just remove the dismantling bench already!!! If you can’t fix it.
The dismantling glitch has been fixed internally and in Testlive. Should be out by the next live patch.
There is definitely ddosing and our clan proved it yesterday when we got on for raid hours they target just our clan literally only our team got removed from the server while everyone else stayed on we tried moving to another server and everything works perfectly fine and the thing is that I don’t know who to contact at g portal or where to make the report
If the alleged DDoSing is happening on PS4, we would suggest to set your PSN profiles on private and not accept any group invites. We’ve heard reports in the past about similar issues like this and this seemed to fix the ways individual IPs were acquired.
If it affects a large chunk of players in the server, you could get in contact with G-Portal (via Twitter or Facebook) explaining the situation, with concrete timestamps and server number so they can check if there’s been an anomalous amount of traffic during that period of time.
Its really sad that paying customers/players have to jump through hoops to help out a game that they enjoy when it seems like the company that puts it out is ok with players destroying their reputation and the experience of potential players that can help and if something like this is happening on one “official server” im sure its happening on others which can cripple the economic rise of the game because crappy experiences like this cause players like me that like to invest into the game by buying DLCs to just give up on the game and any other game branded with that companies name which people like me that get the word out there hurts it even more because one bad experience shared throughout the community and published will cause other player to not even bother trying out the game. Im just saying if you dont have an official admin then maybe you should and maybe promote with in the community and give players the ability to report directly on the issue not jump through hoops and when we are literally just trying to enjoy the game and help its success
