Just took a minute from game to let you know I have experienced five different probs on diff servers in last thirty minutes....in spanish pvp, no one on our ship could register damage to any french ships with fury.....i mean...FURY....Thn, sailing, we landed on Outcast and a crew of ten people and not one got the plunder....zilch....nada....In Port Royal, turned a quest in to Lucinda,,,,no rep pts at all....very, very discouraged by this time....running back to ammo shop and froze in midair....for like two minutes....didna crash tho, I forget other one or two....anyways,,,,its not just lagging...and I had set my graphics down low already and then, of course, other players involved.....wondering what anyone else has seen....Imma going back in to the trenches til it does crash....

Well this morning I got a message saying they were doing maintnence. Maybe that is the case?

What you're experiencing isn't a hack, it's a problem with the game. Possibly due to the maintenance, but those kinds of things happen from time to time.

The SvS, it is probably a glitch, whether the other team did it intentionally, accidentally, or it was a problem on yours, or Disney's side, we can't tell. But I'd assume it was a problem on Disney's side.

When you sail, if your pirate goes "/afk", you do not receive any of the treasure gathered during that time. I think that someone may have gotten treasure, but if not, it is a problem on Disney's side.

Quests sometimes offer gold, rather than rep. That could have been the case, if not, it is only 100 or so rep, so no big deal if it only happened once

Freezing in mid-air is probably something on your end. Either that, or the games. You could have been laggy, or about to be disconnected, and that could have led to this happening.

Right,,,I figured that with quest tomorrow, maintenance/tweakin be a factor,,,the hack part was aimed at incident I didna put here...lol...it was talked so much during sp.pvp I thought I did...guy using an ?emolator...thats so not spelled right...the guy was taking absolutely zero damage from any player and any crew...and had this weird ramming ability....anyways higher levels than me used hack language...I I just wanted to know if anyone else had seen it....or stuff like it...I just changed servers.

I've seen stuff like that before, its not a hack sometimes, as there are times it is a bug. I'm not sure about emulators or anything, but it might be possible to glitch/hack to make this happen. But sometimes the game messes up, and makes stuff like this happen. As for the ramming, it could be lag (like how sometimes when you attune someone, you are close to them on your screen, but far away on their screen).

I would chalk it all up to the update from disney. Experienced player ships taking no damage at sea. I also heard that was an issue in svs, but it was starting to get fixed there. Just logged off and hope that everything gets fixed tomorrow.

It's not an emulator, I took a course in computer programming during last summer. It's called a cheat engine. People use the program to modify the game basically illegally thats wut it is I think. Might be something else though.

Been in pvp a lot lately since i mastered me cannon,,,,haven't seen the prolonged shield glitch on french in a while....dis may be clearing that one up....or the guild who uses it mostly not there....and the five minute rammers(as in constant ramming while shielded) seem to be gone also....that was also done by one guild I've been told.......anyways,,,I know enough to know neither of those repeat sightings were due to lagging, or updates...and I know dis reads stuff here sose I hope players post what "bugs" em out there on the high seas...
