So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)
TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)
When a buildings up but it does not show on the other players screens is this a hack or a glitch? If it is a glitch can it be controled (can a player do it whenever they want).
I also had 2 games today where there seemed to be an invisible wall stopping my partner. In the first, every time my partner made any unit, they'd instantly die with nothing shooting at them. They literally couldn't make it out of spawn area, even with many units in front. The 2nd time, the game seemed to go normal till we decided to attack. Then when he was sending his tanks in, there seemed to be a wall just a bit out of range of the other base where every time his tank crossed it, it would blow up. He tried it with many tanks and they always blew up, even as I killed the base. I dont know if this is just a glitch, or a deliberate hack, or what, but yeah. I wasn't affected either time.
That meant your teammate was detected hacking and de-synchronized, and the 2nd time was probably a crapload of lag. Hacking is a possible reason, but there are others.
It never gave any message like that though. But yeah someone in general chat did mention some type of barrier hack, so I'm guessing that was probably what it was. In the end it didnt really matter because we still won both games (sniper barrier ftw!) heh.
I get it now it is a new barrier hack. The ones i have encountered are: destroy opponents, destroy all, and destroy me. Now there is a Destroy opponent.
