Out of nowhere

Oh my, Bob, you sure put the big boy pants on since I last checked in... :eek::p;):D(y)(y)
Nice to see you dropping by, Eagle :)(y).
I often blame @Pit1024 for dragging me into all the rings but I have FOMO (fear of missing out) and I think the reality is that I’ve just turned into a fuel pig :hungry:. (I don’t know how a lot of people manage to get alliance tasks done without some sort of help:wideyed:). The horrible drop in red launches was very traumatic :dummy:.

I sent a message in on this Mitlain character. He currently has 1436 flights into Mogadishu this week. If accelerated the total fuel cost would be 186,680 just for that destination. He is in the top three (many #1) in multiple destinations, clearly a cheat. A. Hetsigehans also has similar numbers. Players that are not cheating have these top spots unavailable to them now. Seems they would easily identify this and eliminate it unless of course they believe they can profit from it. I’ll give it a week from now and if the cheaters aren’t banned I’ll delete the game.

Update: Received a reply from Kate at game support asking for some screen shots so I sent her about 15.

Using the bug no need a lot of Passengers, flight items and fuels....
It is just tapping the planes in the Hangars over and over again....
They will not for collecting stars but passengers are counted.....
So yes 1+1=100....

I know what I am talking about, so if you dont...... too bad.
“Too bad”??? This is BS...it’s an exploit. While you may not be obligated to inform the game developer you may not inform others of such an exploit.

  • exploit, distribute or publicly inform others about any Game error, miscue or bug which gives an unintended advantage;

...and the idea, especially given your smugness, that you or anyone else using that exploit are doing the game and the rest of the players any good is also BS.

I have been running a lot of flights to Baikonur this week. @Bob69bob was running in the first spot most of the week, and I was not prepared to to run past his near 400 total. Give the guy a first place, maybe a Top 10 will do for me....

Suddenly, from nowhere, A Hetsigehans appears with 596 flights. A man with 26 runways, all with black aircraft sitting on them.
And he has first at Yekaterinburg - 675.
Almaty - 531.
Tashkent - 544
Tehran 791 (up against Mitlains 866)
Yerevan 598
Jeddah 544
Dubai 678
Almaty 531
And I haven't got out of the Middle East yet.

Meanwhile. With my 100 item limit in my warehouse.......:rage:

Well, he has 883 stars - I don't think you can get those with cheating. Also has a LOT of adventure buildings - again, I don't think he can get those by cheating. BUT - how on earth does he have so many S3 planes? And taking first on so many flights? And almost 14 million passengers? With his mints, casinos and banks, he may be getting lots of greenies to buy his flights, but I thought you couldn't do that any more.:confused::confused::confused: Somethin' wrong here!

So I thought about the 100 item limit...he could send flights to those destinations with that item drop, have 500 friends that could gift those items, or he could pay 1 greenie for each flight once he ran out of items. I’m thinking it’s the first option.

Update: game support said the issue was forwarded to dev team “in case” cheating is involved.
 
Send the data to GI and see what they say. I’d certainly like to hear their response :).

Regarding fuel and passengers...

FUEL: I am in 9 fuel rings (all of the accounts on one windows laptop) so allowing for a 80% send rate from neighbours, I should be collecting (9x20x20x7x.8) around 20000 fuel per week. In the past, red launches were abundant and you could get your fuel that way.

PASSENGERS: My city is jam packed with every possible passenger building I can get my hands on and lots and lots of bonus multipliers spread through. I have built a mega multiplier square that allows me to increase passenger output to around 300% for each building 6 of my buildings will produce over 1000 passengers each when activated in the hot spot. Using a Family Ticket (doubles passenger output for 3 hrs) and one or 2 alarm clocks (all passenger buildings instantly available to collect) 50000 plus passengers in a session is not out of the question. Most of the time 75% of my passenger buildings sit idle. Around 25% of my buildings have a turnaround rate of 4hrs or less. Even when I’m constantly flying 13 aircraft at a time, I rarely need to access beyond those 25% which are constantly regenerating.

Having said all of that, I think you’ll find that the players you are describing (lots of runways, lots of land, few buildings) are actually RENTING their flights. ie. no requirement for fuel or passengers.

There are quite a few people that actually spend big $ on this game. I spend from time to time but these people spend mega bucks. There was an arrogant wanker on these forums not long ago who liked to brag about blowing out his Daddy’s super dooper Diamond encrusted, gold plated American Express card. He loved the idea of buying his own throne and laughing at everyone from the top of his cyber kingdom. Complete to$$er. He seems to have moved on to his next lot of lowly victims. I would have enjoyed inserting his precious card for him!!!:wacky: o_O :cool::p
@Bob69bob
May i visit your city? I need to learn a lot about managing passengers from you.

He is not cheating he a strong player.
For the top weekly rank if you in top 10 thats good and dont try to go for the top 3 its not worth for what only 1 gold and you can do red launch and get the gold in easy way.
Just focus to complete flights and get 3 stars and move to other city.

Have no fears about ever passing me. I never look at the stats, I’m merely trying to complete an alliance task. I had no idea I was even in first place, lol. I also assume that some power player will always take the top spots regardless of how many flights I do ;).

Not cheating...Oh please!!! Do you know him/her personally?

I would love for you to explain how he/she manages to fly with such regularity, week in and week out.

Yes i know some players friends to me without names they did this carrying millions passengers in a week when i talk about something i am sure about it.
Is there a cheaters ? yes there are and here in the forum i dont remember the thread but they post many names as cheaters and GI remove some of them.
There is a players i know them long time back they store more than 10 millions fuel so we cannot say that all these player a cheaters.

if you cheat and still spend money then i reckon they will let that slide

Well it's a bit of a contradiction when agreeing to the T&Cs of the game.

It wouldn't be so bad if the [alleged] cheaters were a little more subtle about it. I mean, at the end of each weekly ranking for some destinations, they're leading by, in some cases, thousands of flights. That's so unnecessary, so if they are a heavy player, they are not a smart player.

If these [alleged] cheaters are spending real money to achieve this level of domination, then fair play, but that's a significant amount of money to be spending. If these [alleged] cheaters have saved up an inordinate amount of fuel and passengers, then fair play, but the numbers that they are flying would only be possible for a limited amount of time. Either way, these [alleged] cheaters are defying logic.
