Hmmm if it really is D.k.S. then wait and see, and come on I believe in you too !!! But I have to admit that those three U.S. players seem pretty strong from what I've seen.
Fml bot make search times awesome! Too bad there are few decent players on bot
What do you mean? Are you speaking about Bnet ladder (what else could it be ^^?) If you are I also find that search times have improved a lot it's awesome !! At least on Northrend. Dont know about other realms though.
@SteppinRazor: this is a sad sad statement ladder was the root of everything :( I agree Ntropy's replays helped me a lot to deal with them, especially with human
@Mage: yes I actually play quite a lot with your bot, entertaining and good to meet some of you guys in game ^^
@Ugri: I do agree, the bot is becoming important as more and more players are coming. Besides I have noticed that the level of the FML bot is increasing. At the beginning a lot of players didnot have a good insight about FFA (actually no FFA sense at all ^^) but now more and more players I meet are regular players on the bot. I think you really found something here. Bien joué
@Persuade: I think I met Renaud in one of my game he seemed as a good fellow. I have never been to Canada, though a ton of times in the US. Some people in Europe that have traveled in North America say that Canada is just a better version of the US (don't know what you think about that ).
@Sparkle: Thanks again Sparkle (& congrats on your ranking, hope you will make it to top 1) I already spoke to you about it and once again you give me some good advices that I will try to apply in my next ladder games. You seem very confident about how you handle maphackers in your games so if you have examples of replays where you handle well the way you say it it would be great if you could post them somewhere (in ffareplays as Ntropy does for instance)
I have played FFA for quite a while now even though I never played in FML, always focusing on Northern ladder considering that I don’t have the sufficient level for your league . From the good old days I encountered maphackers from time to time. However now that I have been back (after being inactive for more than 3 years) it is just so crazy . For instance, for each game I played last week-end I met at least one or two hackers in 5 out of my 7 games. Maybe it’s just bad luck? I hope it is.
I was wondering what you guys do in this kind of situation. What do you do when you meet a hacker on ladder?
Personally I 95% of the time loose my temper and just suicide the ‘poor’ bastard , which is as you guys know not the right behaviour to be successful in FFA. Most of the time I eventually get rid of him but then I got taken out quickly and relatively easily by the other(s) player(s). Either because he/they have hoarded a ton of gold or because he/they just had the right counter army to mine (having time to scout and adapt while I was focusing on the hacker).
Maybe I need to understand them better :icon_question:because right now I just don’t get it why a player would cheat on a game that is more than 10 years old. (Actually I have no clue either for those who cheat in new games but this is not the point). If you could give me some reason or some satisfaction they can get from hacking please do tell me . Maybe if I understand them better I will be able to keep my calm and stay focus on the solution to win the entire game, and not just taking out the hacker.
Any tip on how to handle maphackers would be also welcome.
i found a nooblexguide in my folders. i think it is the newer one, not sure though. i uploaded it on ffareplays, since i don´t know how to upload files here.
I am going to ask the same question as above but does anyone have still the updated version of Nooblex's FFA guide? I know the WCR version but it is an old one.
If anyone has it would be much appreciated if you could put it online or if you could send it to me at: thomas.vollant@gmail.com
