Watchers shouldn't really ask because it's not their place.  They should msg someone playing in the game and suggest they ask.  But it's not like there's a rule against watchers asking... player still has to take.

This ss definitely isn't an Officially Acceptable ss™ but it could potentially be a good faith effort to take a ss... probably something we could talk to Sav about.  maybe a phone shot would be okay if it showed the whole screen?

Is there a way to detect programs like that?

if the antihack is strong it would get that because he's still hacking if he's accessing an uncovered map, should set off the alarms even if it beats the ss test

There is nothing that can be done. Your best bet is to make war2 run in a VM that's in a web browser and dont give the player control over the os. LOL the hacker will always get a step ahead.

Wrong it doesn't modify war2 at all just reads its memory. Imagine a map editor but it pulls the tiles, units, building and displays them in it's own program. The 2nd monitor eliminates the alt tab :)

;D who would spend time to make that and the know how lol

There is 3 ways to bypass the screen shot.

1. Certain version of war2 and a known hack.
2. Reverse out the icons for buildings and gold mines, etc. To fix the on and off in which I have done years ago lol or just hit tab and black out the minimap LOL!!!!!
3. The program I mentioned above.

Its worthless to even ask for a ss it's a waste of time for admins and users.

Spb is Russian.. and most likely not hacking.

You would think somebody playing as long as him would be able to take a screenshot though. I don't know any computer that's not capable of doing it
Title: Re: is this legit SS
Post by: tk[as] on September 04, 2018, 03:09:50 PM
I'm not convinced that is hacking but it is crazy how advanced some of these players have become in the last 6 months. Seemingly out of nowhere. But I haven't been on a whole lot and last 6 months until recently

Tora

A few of those players followed a natural progression but a couple of them made some very large spikes and skill level in a short amount of time

Is it possible that tk has gotten a lot worse, and that's why it seems like everyone else is better?

His list seems pretty right though as a ladder historian.

Maciek, LaLe, and Silent~Farts have definitely been improving while at the same time probably some are falling off.

Title: Re: is this legit SS
Post by: tk[as] on September 04, 2018, 08:08:32 PM
I'm def not where I was 6 months or a year ago.. But they've definitely improved significantly compared to 6 months or a year ago

Heck even ~Tora~ had a win over KHB I think. Even if KHB is rusty that is a huge accomplishment and something to be proud of.

Me and lale- went 2-2 with brav/spb last night.. We lost one from 6/8

Yeah I got 2 wins on him under “cherrycoke” lol.

You know why that is? It’s cause 2v2 more interesting than 1v1. Most people don’t have the attention span to play 30min 1v1 games.

Post by: Szwagier on September 05, 2018, 12:48:39 PM
cuase for people playing 1x1 is too hard, lot of ppl are proud cause they won 1x1 vs better player in 2x2 but its not the same 1x1

May I ask how do you pay attention to so many details after 30mins of intense game play? Most people I think would get bored at that point.
Just looking for pointers.

cause i like playing warcraft 2, if i get bored i just quit game for days/weeks/months, 3 years ago i was half year inactive cause i get bored

I prefer play late game than playing one lust attack and win, its boring
Title: Re: is this legit SS
Post by: ~ToRa~ on September 05, 2018, 01:39:22 PM
^^I guess it just takes a certain kind of personality and skill set to be good at 1v1.
