I've heard online with N-4 that some people cheat, how in the world is that even possible?

I don't know if people are actually cheating, but yes, it's entirely possible and I'd be surprised if everyone out there was 100% legit First of all, it's close to impossible to make a system 100% safe, just ask Pentagon and anyone else who is spending a small fortune on IT security, and if it can be hacked, you can cheat, and with all the clever people in the online racing community, I think it's a safe assumption to say that some people have found ways to cheat, most of them wouldn't dream of using it, some might .....

With N4 there were ways to cheat in past, and each patch released included fixes to prevent cheats that had been discovered. But I'm sure there are others. If people have to cheat, then I guess they aren't very good on-line racers.... -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Bryon Lape <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I've heard online with N-4 that some people cheat, how in the world is > that even possible? >

Blizzard, for example, has to keep patching Diablo II so that people don't create duplicates, or rip off other players. There's ALWAYS going to be a subset of people who feel that cheating others is normal. :( Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett Thanks to those of you who made a donation for breast cancer research.

ROTF! Maybe we could just make a blanket statement and include all politicians. We have a republican govenor here in IL that sure enjoys cheating. ;-) Tim Wortman North American Simulation Series www.nasscar.com

LOL. That's spelled Amerikkka. -- Fester "The Ferrari is a tainted vehicle and Formula 1 is no longer a sport. If they had instructed me to do the same I would have told them to stuff it." -- Stirling Moss
Cheating in the Papy series of Nascar? I think that's part of the realism of the sim. Although allot more beneficial in online racing than in real life. -- 1904 - Glenn H.

Speaking of which, what's with these comments about Traction Control that I heard pop up during last weeks "Trackside Chat" on Speed ? This is the first I've heard of it. The insinuation was that some teams had figured out a way to incorporate it that couldn't be caught? Anyone else catch this ? -Larry "REDLINE426" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3imN8.1907$[email hidden]... > Cheating in the Papy series of Nascar?
