Hi All, Has the Red Faction server been hacked????? There have been problems on it today 7/24/05. You can't shoot at all. It's happening on more than one server( I saw it on the weird server & lazy's ) so I have to think it's the RF server that has been hacked or has problems. Anyone else have a clue as to what is going on??? Please post. Thanks!!! N.A.B.

I encountered the same problem in Viper 3 and Swift Games. All weapons behave as if you're out of the level area. No sound, spastic muzzle flash, no ammunition used. The only weapon that was virtually usable was the flamethrower so everyone was using that. I don't know the cause of it but I know that some servers haven't experienced it. I don't know what to think.

This is the samebug as my topic, "Weird bug"

Everyone claims that people have hacked the RF server... which is probably true. I only find this problem in CTF games though...

The RF master server only controls the match making service... once you've joined a game it has no further use.

Yeah well anyway it would be nice to know what causes it so it can be prevented in future.

yeah guys i know what has happend. the only fix for this kind of cheat is to change levels.

I was talking to Trotskie on how it happends but to limit it im not going to say how its done or what causes it. It comes down to some one has a cheat program and can stop the game for every one even after they leave the server.

Hasn't somebody made an alternative game tracker for RF in the past?

You're correct. I think it went by match.no-ip.com or some other variant. From all the information concerning this weird issue it seems to be down to a program or modification.

When I read the thread title I thought whats so new with it?
After reading all this I didn't think different.

Sounds to me like a rapid fireing CENSORED that was roaming around the servers.

ya i was in Have_Fun that night, it was crazy... we tried some crazy stuff to get it to work. We were in killbox, and ppl were making human pyramids to get out of the fricken building... which obviously never worked, so we had fun running around aimlessly swinging batons at eachother

Well I guess at least the Flamethrower got used!

I wish RFs Flamer was more powerful.
Trying to find old players. Anyone about? Drop me a PM or reply to this thread:

Yeah the enemy has to be right at the end of your flame-line for it to do a lot of damage. I'm not sure if it does ANY damage when you're close up.

You can always go to the nasty servers as they have a more powerful flame thrower
