Magnetron Hack

[:1]For those that have not played multiplayer much this is the Magnetron hack. You build a magnetron. You turn it on. It now has the suction power of 5-10 magnetrons. It can also pull a UC at the edge of its radius into the mag in 10 seconds and destroy it in 5 seconds. Somehow they found a way to duplicate the power of the magnetron.
Can we get some patches to address this hack?! It is a complete game killer since it makes a single magnetron capable of taking on 10 UC and destroying them all within one pull (I seen it happen in one of my matches, we lost since a single magnetron destroyed an army of 25 UC).
I am sure everyone that has played multiplayer has played with one of these hacked magnetrons. The ones doing the modding are mostly from the same clan. I don't know the exact name of the clan but I am sure someone here knows it. It is the clan the Russians are from (the ones with [AI]somename).
Can we get a fix for this, this hack is going to kill the game at this rate.|||The russians? You mean [FV]? Theres a players called [FV]AI....|||There are a whole bunch of glitches that are all related in how they work.
The nanite glitch works the same way I am told.
The guy that found the glitches already told gpg about them, about a month ago.|||For what it's worth, here's a replay of it:

No desync and replay works fine, so this seems like an inherent engine flaw?
Nanite glitch working the same way makes me thing that this has a GUI component that lets a player activate an ability numerous times.|||I know a cheater on supcom2 who can probably contribute to gpg finding out how they are doing this "research hack". If gpg wants the steam profile pm me.|||DaemonicKnight|||Yep, cheat is used by the same people above against me. There is no fun playing this game against the cheaters. Even if i did know how to use it, i wouldnt. They are just wasting the game and the last users are gone.|||Watched the replay, omg how bad.
In a 4v4, what a waste of the other players time. |||Yes, this sucks. But I wouldn't count on another patch.
So play 1v1s / 2v2s and go all air. Unless I'm mistaken, and Magnetrons affect air units?|||I usually never go for these land only games, coincidentally because they tend to be huge waste of time and the late game is impossible due to the normal magnetrons. I got roped into the one above by Mr. Cupcake.
Anyway, if you see these guys again, please free to 4-man bumrush them.|||FV are douchebags anyways... they use the alt-f4 tricky to get 2 more seconds to build... way to ruin a replay because "we are the best clan because we use everything we can"|||Id really like to know about more specifics about how to do these
I have no want of cheating in multi, but i love to look at glitches!
I know I wont be told how, no need to deny me.
But ya, next time rage quit, or comrush. And report again on forums|||If somebody wouldn't mind private messaging me I would quite like to know too. It isn't the sort of thing I'd abuse.|||Don't tell soviet ffs.|||I've already told GPG how to duplicate these exploits... a month ago.|||Can you PM me the details?|||Still any Idea on how someone managed the magnetron hack? Its quite unusual, but just seems like the effect stacked 5 times.|||sorian|||**** happens :\|||Someone was nice enough to send me a PM, so I now know how it is done.|||Cool. Can we expect some sort of resolution?|||About much as we can expect the CBP recommendations to be implemented or the pullinsmash transport bug to be fixed.
So possibly, but not its not highly likely.|||Dont know so much on the story, but FA got some sort of unofficial 3063 patch, no?|||AngryMacrophage|||GPG or Sqeenix or whomever is in charge needs to patch these exploits.
Look beyond the tip of your nose and realize that you don't even have another game for us to purchase and play yet, until that time you need to keep supporting this game.
