@ running bird Just to get you right... for me, hacking and using cheats are the same. I think thats what you meant also?! Thanks for the tipp. I will try it with C and D-cars. Actually I tried it sometimes with an A-Car, Lambo Sesto or the P1. In some sesseions they were less cheaters, but sometimes I was in a session with only S-Cars. In this case you can stop immediately because you are 100 miles slower than the others. (your right I am german ) @ driver6353 Of course I know the connection thing. But I am not talking about that! I play the game (almost) on a daily basis and you realise the differences really quick. Then you have a bad internet connection, the car dissappear or blink for a second but it always appear on the same directions. You can tell that his way was correct. I talk about a different phenomen... The player drive directly into a wall, a car or whatever, just because he couldn`t handle the speed. You can also see the crash. After every crash - cheater or non-cheaters - the car gets rebuild. For a non-cheater it takes a couple of seconds and most of the time you loose some meters. Cheaters don`t loose time or meeters. Their car appear a couple of meters behind the obstacle. They don`t loose time, they gain time. They are simply unbreakable by using a cheat. I can only repeat myself. You either play in level 1 - (lets say) 10 or you play a different game. >90% in mp s-car level are cheaters. Have you noticed, that most of the players are in level 1?! I think thats pretty unrealistic for players using the best cars, completely upgraded. I also saw a youtube-videos for cheaters where they explain, how to switch the level. I guess in level 1 you have an advantage against higher rated players. At least in my experience the chance that level 1 players are cheaters (in s-car-session) ist very very high. What is your level on mp?
I understand your frustration, but what you're stating might not always be true. In the case of a multiplayer race (ie Not an MPTLE), I agree it's kind of weird to compete against Max pro cars driven by level 1 players. It's hard to tell if they're cheaters or genuine. In the case of an MPTLE, you don't get any MP points, so if you're racing against players stuck at lvl 1, you shouldn't be surprised, if they don't level up. In this scenario, what you implied earlier is not true. I'm saying this because I'm not a big MP player myself (ie : I'm stuck at level 3 ). However I do participate in a few MPTLE. I do gain some prizes, but only the ones you get for participating or finishing at the 1st place (not the ones you get with points), as I don't want to spend money on fuel and don't wan't to organize my life around an MPTLE, and I don't get any MP points. Don't take it wrong but what's your average rank in solo TLE ? What's your best time on solo tracks in the game ? Did you check your time against the records of some of the best genuine players out there ?
If you'd be a Veteran,then you'd know the glitch,that almost every LVL 85 Player gets Shown as LvL 1 and no,Potentially <5% of the S class Players are cheaters!
@) driver6353 First of all, I never said that I`m a veteran. I said that I am experienced enough to see the difference between cheating and a bad internet connection. 2nd. How should I now this glitch? I play the game, not reading forums. I watched some cheater videos on youtube, because I wanted to know how these cheats works in general. 3nd. If so, it`s even worse. If 1level players should be 85 players, when I wonder why they cannot handle the speed of their s-class-cars? Why they don`t know all the short cuts? Again, they are not winning because they are better, they are winning because they have unlimited nitro / extra speed and because they are unbreakable. Still you don`t answer my questions... Which level do you drive? Do you use any kinds of cheats?
Sorry to disappoint you also. But the others are right, there are not many cheaters in the game. It's not so easy to distinguish between cheaters and internet connection, even if you think you are able to. The position of the other cars you see are often not their real positions but only projections which get corrected, when your game gets the next position from your opponent devices. Due to this we can race without getting pushed out of most of the races, but it results in a lot of strange effects. You are not alone, most of the not veteran players think the same than you. As you are interested in stats: I have the highest mp rank 85 till months, have done over 5000 mp races, 24 days playtime, play the game for over a year and have worldrank position 27 (in my more active mp times I was even place 8(Android!)). Just a tipp: Here are a lot of veterans all claiming the same, believe us.
Just reading some of the comments about the blinking/hacking issue, I agree with most of the regulars posts here, there is very little obvious cheating eg unlimited acceleration etc in the game nowadays. I'm no expert on MP by any stretch of the imagination but I've still played well over 2000 MP races, across all ranks from about 1000-1100 right up to 1700+ rank S class, and not once have I come across unlimited acceleration or no wreck mode. Yeah I've seen the videos on YouTube so I understand what it looks like but I've never seen it in live play, so if you think you are seeing this anywhere close to 50% of the time then there is a misunderstanding somewhere here. Another possibility is that you are on what is commonly known as the cheaterboard and are therefore experiencing matchups with hackers, but I'm not even sure if that is how it works. I've been on the cheaterboard twice before and I couldn't find any players to start races with in MP during those times. What do your regular TLE leaderboards look like? Are there players in the top spots without boosts and low car ranks? The first time I was on it I still don't know why 4 or 5 months later, the second time it was because I used the sector 8 glitch in a TLE and fell foul of the auto bot used by GL to remove times below 44:000 seconds.
My stats are lvl 85 and 10000 mp matches,Zeremoniar explained it very good and I expected you beeing a veteran,cause you said you had 1501 stars.
I very frequently race MP with Driver6353 and want to share my experience with you milbertshofener. Not only that he is probably the best German player on iOS, it's very difficult to take him down in MP because of his bad internet connection. Sometimes the blinking and driving all over the place is so bad that it is really hard to focus on the line you wanted to take. When I was half way into this game I was also thinking the game was full of cheats but in reality I haven't met more than two in MP since 2013. Also with another respected driver on A8 I experienced the blinking issue. Sorry but your experience has nothing to do with hacks or cheats. Ahh my resume, I have 5000+ MP matches with 3900 wins, most on fast cars. So 5 Germans on this Topic? You, RunningBird, Driver6353, Zeremoniar and me, lol. BTW what's your ingame name? Want to add me?
wait for the ghost advice you first mentioned, what race is that? i was thinking for the dezir but it doesn't seem like buddha's teachings mini, survolt: eh ill keep that in mind challenger: yea i tried doing that but it's rather slow gtr: i face this problem with the 12c in alps too, it's hard to get a small jump for the bridge bounce oh yea, my record in the 12c alps event in season 9 unboosted is 58:1xx i think, try it dezir: mhmm the start determines everything, i remember once during the turn at the end with the red bus and grey truck, i somehow passed through the truck and got a traffic down, think how much time that would have saved than going around the truck! too bad it wasn't that good a run anyways i think i'll try again in a few hours (y) Annnd, german c-c-combo breaker!!! (I'm Canadian) like chinese canadian
Granted, I stopped using S class cars in multiplayer before the Lykan even came out. Cheating was rampant back then, with infinite nitro being the most common kind of cheat, especially in S class. "7 0 0" and "Driver 4652" were famous examples — both were world series #1 for several weeks (or even months) each, and both drove Ageras with infinite nitro. And they seemed to play multiplayer all day, so if you drove an Agera as well, you encountered them numerous times a day. If that has changed, and if cheating is less common these days, that's excellent news. (Then again, the nitro starter + extra tank combo might make it difficult to identify them. Both of those things didn't exist back then, so infinite nitro cheating was much more obvious.) Oh, and I agree on crashing not being conclusive proof for cheating. I've been in races with friends where we both saw each other crash, when we both actually didn't. Those extrapolated representations of other people's cars on your device can be mindblowingly deceiving. Lastly, I have 1+ multiplayer races under my belt, and I won 1+ of those. So there.

Well I have done 9000 MP races and have seen all sorts, the blinking cars is mostly bad internet connection, this is also an advantage too a less moral player, so you can bet that sky summer elite open etc have found a way to manipulate this. I have followed many of these clan drivers who are solid, then as the count down starts they start blinking, when they are safe they go solid again, then if you are coming up behind them they start blinking again. So knocking them down is impossible. All you would need to do is interrupt the wifi when in danger and when safe go bask to full strength. I am convinced that this is done by the clans but it is not what you are seeing in general, which is your internet connection. If all the other cars are blinking it is defiantly you not them.
I'm @lvl 85, and perhaps since I play winphone, I see less cheaters. Yes they are out there, on all platforms, but you can safely assume most races are legit. Blinking can be annoying, but as mentioned, you only see an approximation of your opponents cars, On your Own device. As for where this puts your skill as a driver, perhaps as others suggest, tle or mptle might be a good way to meassure your skill as an A8 pilot. All this feedback from other members aswell, should guide you to other perspectives of A8. Good Luck
Speaking of MP racing, I've been having an absolute blast racing my P1 lately. I don't normally run with boosters, but I'd just come out of the S Class cup: K1 killer (also, to answer my own question -- 3500 races on Android, 2500 on Windows)
Yeah, I can attest to what others were talking about. My connection was pretty bad today and everyone started blinking and flying around. Heck, I can't catch up to any car at all for some reason - it is as if they are going on unlimited nitro. It's frustrating, but that is what happens when your connection is bad. Maybe the server logs your data slower than others because of the bad connection? This might create a lag between receiving and sending the data so the cars keep repositioning themselves. You're also always lagging behind others so you keep losing time compared others, making it near impossible to catch up with others. When someone crashes, they recover before your game even receives the data. It creates a lag and when you receive the next set of data, it makes it seem as if just bounce back up or teleported. I guess it is something like that? P.S. You have to be a computer engineer to be experienced enough to differentiate cheating and a bad connection. If you let yourself cloud in arrogance and impatience, it'll come to hit you hard. Can't you at least...you know...be a bit more humble rather than acting like everyone in the world is against? I was the No.1 Player in another game that has reward system like this too (these kind of leaderboard rewards are used in nearly every game) and I acted like you did before. Honestly though, sometimes you just have to wake up and realize that you're acting like a douche. Do not let your gaming status mixed with your social status and letting yourself believe that you are very much experienced. Lose yourself and you'll regret doing that in the future.
since GL put out Dezir, MP for me seems to be less fun when using other car to race against that. No way to win unless Dezir drivers are total noobies which is kinda impossible in the first place.
Thats the fun of P1 - GTR. After flying s class hovering along, barely touching the ground (At breake neck speeds) its so much easier to actully follow the best lines. I Find starting first helps aswell And... this is also a great testement to the fact that A8 is demanding to master. Love that feedback from a game; I'm I in the flow..... N1 Dude Word!
ads for token/refill? Is everyone's 'watch a video ad to get tokens/fuel bars' working nowadays except me? I don't think mine has worked for about a month now.
