kromka 40 Posted September 30, 2016 I am not sure if such question exist on this forum. I didn't find anything like this. Question is like in the title: what is the purpose of global rankings? I've made a gold star in first chopper time trial. Yeah!!! I've done it after another and another fly (I consider myselfe as a good A3 pilot). But what I see in global rank? First guy on the list has the time better than my more than 30 sec. It is obvious cheating, because it is simply impossible. And there are plenty of such guys in all rankings. Then I would like to ask once again: what is puprose of promoting cheaters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigpoppablunts 53 Posted September 30, 2016 Showcasing cheaters is all leaderboards have ever been good for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
veles-zv 176 Posted September 30, 2016 I havent cheated in the leader boards and im top 10, 25 to 100 on some of the shoot drills :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kromka 40 Posted September 30, 2016 Example:https://steamcommunity.com/stats/107410/leaderboards/812548 I've made a time about 1:06. I know it is beatable obout 5 secs. And look at best three times... I am extremally curious, how battousai84 did it. Or 1:34 on "Hillside groove". Or maybe 0:04 (!!!) in Orange 1. It should be permanent ban - not a leading in leaderboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R3vo 2654 Posted October 2, 2016 It should be permanent ban - not a leading in leaderboard. I would be careful with that. The whole firing drill thingy is scripted which means it's probably not 100% reliable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kromka 40 Posted October 3, 2016 But in case of this guy and other "champions" this non-reliability concerns not only firing drills. One way to do such things I have in my mind is to change missions internally (eg. by moving triggers near each other). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
