KOT hacking

[Guest]

a group of bandits locked down airfield, a friend tells me to join

(server name was virginia 23)

as soon as i get into waiting for server to create character, I get killed by KOT.

I know this because the kill message said

''HuggeTheDruggie was killed by KOT''

I dont know how they killed me before i spawned, but they did it twice.

So yeah, killed by KOT twice.

// for some reason didnt lose my char when aborting. (maybe cus i disconnected in waiting for server to create char??)

anyways, they locked down the airfield with hacks.

Confirmed for hacking, on the server at the same time it happened to multiple people, all in northern regions.

They probably were at debug forest, or they were at the area where everyone loads.

Yeah that's what I was thinking was a possibility too, Legacy. You can occasionally walk around in that forest where the units are placed (before they're initialized and moved to where your location was saved at). Any player there can shoot your unit as it loads in but before the unit init scripts are finished, and pop you. Unfortunate, but there you have it.

Of course, that's just one possibility.

Shit, i misread that as KOOT and was like wtf.

It's some KOT guy tho, all is well.
