Is it possible that someone uses tricks in MPQ (for example to increase HP) ???
I always ask myself how people manage to raise the level of characters like lady thor or luke cage in a very short time .. sometimes i find them in the PVP and it's impossibile for me to fight with them...
I'm very discouraged icon_e_sad.gificon_e_sad.gificon_e_sad.gif

    Is there on the forum a thread where the players could indicate those persons to the programmers in order to verify the level raising?

    There have been hacks that let you get insane amounts of ISO and HP, as well as a one-way ticket to the sandbox. But there are some people (like Colognisseur) who just play a lot and hence has lots of ISO lying around, and buys HP whenever a new character is released to immediately buy more covers and max them out to see how they play. So it could just be a whale having their own kind of fun.

    sure .. but i only ask that programmers do a check in order to verify if people uses tricks or, instead, they play regularly buying and ISO and HP...

    The game has over a million downloads and tens of thousands of daily uses. To check everyone would probably be very time consuming. If you see someone you think is suspicious, report them so the developers may know something fishy is going on.

    I can imagine simple script that runs daily and compares iso and hp level with day-1 data. Where is identified significant jump (dunno, maybe + 10000 HP; +500000 ISO) overnight, that script will identify potential fraud for investigation. This will filter out suspicious from normal activity, then all you need is to check whether there's payment registered for that IGN or not. But that's a long shot, not knowing what data is available on daily basis....

    They already have something like that as every now and then you read about a legit player getting sandboxed for having a ton of iso.
    In the meantime, just report suspicious activity as you feel appropriate.

    None of the cheating autochecks seem to look for people who only hack as needed. IE, they don't have a large stockpile of HP or ISO, but you look at their roster and you see nonsense like two maxed Daredevils, along with 2-3 of every 4*

    Wasn't there a guy who had a lot of level 395 characters on his roster once? Or maybe more than once?

    I've come across a few guys. Mostly with level 41 Juggernauts and such, just take a screen shot and send it to D3, I got 2 hackers banned I know for sure.
