Elite: Game talk

i got killed again by him yesterday again. This makes now 3 x 7,8 Mio Credits Rebuy. And i got a forth time killed by station lasers inside - when i tried to see the effect of my multicanon on his hull...
I does not matter which ship you fly - he might take out a Corvette with single shot. Who knows what stats the hacked weapons have....
I did report the User DDASD 3 times in total. I am not sure how fast Frontier will react to the reports, nor if the lost credits (aka my lost lifetime ; ) i reimbursed.
Anyhow - Fontier should pay attention to this issue. If more users are able to use cheated ships - this beautiful game will die a sudden death.

Unless you're trying to gather instances of this occurring for reporting purposes, why are you continuing to fly in Open, knowing this hacker is out there? I mean, 1nce is bad, 2wice is worse, 3x has me wondering.

Because then the terrorists win.

Flying in open and being a victim to that cheat will solve nothing. I've watched 2 full wings of pvp FDLs trying to engage him, all being one shooted one after another with zero damage taken by the guy. What you gonna do?

Maybe playing in Open really sucks.

Federal Surveillance Identifies Domestic Terrorists
21 APR 3307
The Proactive Detection Bureau, which monitors all civilian communications in the Federation, has detected several home-grown terrorist groups.
Deputy Director Bethany Blake of the Federal Investigations Agency told the media:
“Our combination of sophisticated algorithms and skilled operatives has unearthed over a dozen extremist organisations, all previously unknown. The FIA launched pre-emptive raids on these groups before they were able to strike against civilian targets.”
“In addition, we have arrested several thousand individuals who were conducting research into terror tactics, radical ideologies and other suspicious subjects.”
“The PDB will continue monitoring all comms networks, and liaising with local security agencies via the Federal Justice Department.”
Vice President Jerome Archer hailed these results as validation of the Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act, and stated that the PDB will help prevent the mass murder of Federal citizens.
Civil rights groups have claimed that these extremists could have been detected via conventional policing methods, rather than intercepting personal messages. Independent criminologists added that the statistical likelihood of such amateur groups committing actual attacks is low.

Well then, Fednecks, guess being an "Imp" is preferable after all, hmm?

I suggest you re-read the question I was answering as you pretty much answered your own question. If you give up on Open when you can just block them you're giving them a win.

Works like a charm.

Vinh Kruczek-LengyelIf someone bothers you in Open, just get a stock Sidewinder and the cheapest FSD interdictor - then chase after them. Interdict, get destroyed, rinse and repeat. Again and again until they get bored.
Works like a charm.
They just block you, surely?

SakashiroI've blocked DDASD and KITE1101 preemptively. It's the first time I'm using the block list.
Thanks for the tip did mot know I could block them unless i saw them in chat.

So i basically can remove them (from my open universe) and do not see them and they cannot see me ?
That would be a good solution for me...
Cheers

Yet it requires a time to do. Your time. To spend on those pricks.
