yeah i had the same fight, he seemed to have **** shields, BUT his armor was very hard to damage even wiv nomads and class 9 weapons, either he is very very leet or a gud hax0r.

A mod is a hack, to increase your ship's firepower, movement, or sheilding. Multiplay doesn't say if they are or not, so i don't know.

I would assume no... Although it would be useful for any extension of the game, or make it easier.

High lvl players shouldn't use them... too unfair...

Its not modding, its cheating plain and simple.
The MPUK server is a default server. No Hacks allowed.

Unfortunately, it is incredibly easy to hack your ship/character stats from the client, and the server wont stop them from joining.
The only way to detect a cheater is to either see them doing things that should not be possible, or be standing behind them when they do it.

I think hes using Borrocos (lvl 5) there shield eaters. There the smaller version of the Tizona del Cids that some people (me included) use for very quick shield removal.

As for Mods with the server patch up to 1.1 you cant use Mods as the server checks the game files against a set template and then if there changed will boot you for cheating.

Try looking in the mod section of the forums at www.lancersreactor.com for more info.

edit: Damn beat me to it :)

Well thats bloody charming that EQ. You'll also have noticed that while my shots did indeed take yourr shields very quickly the amount of hull damage I inflicted was pretty pathetic. It was as Sirron said, I was using two Borroco's for something like 300 - 400 shield damage each per shot at 4.00 rounds/sec but only 6 hull damage, or something ( plus they're beam weaps therefore highly effective against that particular lvl 10 shield) with two advanced tarantulas to do what little hull damage I could muster. You'll be most pleased to know I now have an Eagle and can get through your shield even quicker. As for hitting other players you also have to consider lag, as a long time player of on line space shooters ( mainly X-Wing ) I can tell you that you must lead your shots more that looks right when shooting at other players. Although I must say the lag handling with FL seems excellent with little ghosting.

If any server admin folk want to check me out for mods they'll have my full co-operaton.

In the mean time may I suggest you look to other causes for any lack of sucess on your part?

Lol, and that is pretty much the case - its true that by mixing shield eaters with laser (beam) based etc weapons - you have the perfect combo for bringing down a brigadine shield since this is thier weak spot.

For thos with eagles, a mix of tizona with bounty hunter lvl 9 reaver (laser) - then ur usual class 10's makes an awesome brigadine killer.

Someone just did thier homework in detail it seems.

:p:

errr no, he was reffering to saj being in a light fighter - which gave him the speed and turning circle to get outta every1's sights quickly - the titan just cant match that kind of turning unfortunately

nothing can match that turning... I'm chuffed to bits with my Eagle but the Drake was damn good fun ( for me, annoyed the piss out of everyone else )in big PvP battles. Very tempted to make a second character.

Saj

Speaking of which, wouldn't it be funny to have PvP battles limited to one very hvy, one hvy and one light per side? Perhaps something to think about. ( maybe a freighter too for laffs )

the drom freighter can be surprisingly potent - if equipped with skyblasts - interesting idea tho

have u given the hammerhead a whirl saj? thats quite a nippy vhf

I tried the hammerhead, lovely ship, but could be better when it can take lvl 10 weapons. Other than that, it's no too bad...
