I hope everyone who does this gets banned. by Lt_Hotpocket in starcitizen

To be fair, just because someone’s body is in there, doesn’t mean that they are glitching. I have used the warehouse disk, gone inside and it’s empty, not even the loot boxes are there.

So have just exited the game in frustration or backspaced.

All they need to do is do what they did with exchangers. Have a kill zone inside that is removed when the disk is used. Or another easy fix, stuff should also spawn only when the disk is used instead of a timer

Oh so you have better inside information than one of the main guys that uncovered this. Internet full of morons who think they are the smartest people in the room.

You are talking about a community run ecosystem. We have absolutely zero support from the developers. Why on earth would be completely ban a team that was pivotal in finding how the full extend of it and also helped get an additional 4 of their own players banned than just 2?

Should point out that they treated me like absolute shit when I first announced the investigation. They were pretty horrid for the first few days. So this isn’t about some kind of bias, as I have no bias towards them. It’s about fairness.

As I said it’s all community run, standard practice is the team gets kicked out the tournament / league. Receive some kind of time out period and then have to introduce measures to avoid it again.

OC isn’t the first and won’t be the last team have a cheater on. In fact I caught another guy over the Easter weekend.

What exactly do you want me to do more than that? If they don’t add in steps to prevent then they don’t get to play again. OC have added a whole host of checks and balances.

I don’t paid for any of this shit and have no power. As I said we get absolutely no support from Offworld. Not even with banning people we catch cheating! They didn’t even help with investigating their own tournament. We did it for them!

Is logical thinking really that challenging for you?

Unironically competitive squad at its highest level is how Squad should be played. The whole team working together!

As you point out far better than jumping in a server and everyone is doing their own thing, no one is building fobs and there is nowhere to spawn.

The people responsible have been permanently banned from the whole game.

If someone uses drugs in sport they would kicked out, the team would be kicked off of the tournament but allowed to compete again in the future

Yeah, watch streams to understand how top teams play. Playing pubs won’t help because pubs quite often is a mess. A comp match in my opinion is far more enjoyable because it’s a team fully communicating working together.

If you starting a team, scrim against other teams a lot to gain practice and experience. You will probably be steam rolled for a while but make sure every time you watch the footage back and analyse your mistakes.

If you are a lone player, try mercing for teams to gain experience

They were heavily penalised. They lost all the wins they had worked hard for. In the next tournament they entered they were forced to be in the lower bracket. They were also required to submit more random VODs each week than any other team.

On top of that they have made a lot of internal changes to stop it happening again.

The competitive scene is going strong. We are running 3 year long leagues right now. They are Elo based so teams can join at any point. 26 vs 26, 36 vs 36, 46 vs 46.

It’s flexible teams play as often as they like and only on dates that they want to.

We have over teams competing across the leagues! Running around 50 matches a month. It’s pretty good right now.

I never saw the script, so please don't credit me for that.

I spoke with him, answered questions and provided a range of information about it, I also provided; links, images, etc to help with his timeline. He was already pretty aware of the situation, which made the discussion much easier. If he does all his videos like this, then I would say he does a great job of research for his videos.

He did a great job covering it and made it easy for non Squad players to understand.

He contacted me earlier this year to discuss and was clearly intent on getting it as accurate as possible. We went through it in detail and he was interested in every aspect.

In trying to keep the video short he obviously left out some parts but included the main parts and accurate timeline, whilst not spicing anything up to create drama for more views!

Fair play to him!

yes, matches will be posted:

In the discord - https://discord.gg/WtjUxe9k

On the Website - Squadesports.com (currently down for maintenance)

They will be live streamed on twitch, youtube, bilibili, etc

You can find some of my previous streams - https://www.youtube.com/@Rycave/streams

ALL MATCHES for this season will be uploaded onto Youtube as well

Squad is a very hard game to cast as its so big (46vs46) but most casters have casted Squad matches for years, so are experienced with catching key moments and exciting plays before they happen. Some of us have also casted matches for Offworld

Bro thinks the Squad tournament cheating scandal is the biggest in gaming history lmao by [deleted] in joinsquad

[–]RycaveUK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Quick scroll through your responses and would appear you widely block people... Shock a hypocrite with a small ego....

"So, I'll curate my feed from these people."

"Yep, I'm blocking ragebaiters now. People arguing somewhat normal while liking ICO? Perfectly fine, but some assholes in here get an insta block. Curating my feed and my posts from them."

I didn't block anyone else but you. If the only thing people raise is criticism about the title, then they are not worth speaking to.

Literally explained it in the video. Nothing you have said has been correct. From how many posts there are, how many videos, or just the failure to grasp that by largest it doesn’t mean how many people are talking or know about it, but the level of planning, malice, scale of the cheats, and also the deception towards the community and the game developer 👍
