    Default People cheating??

    When doing matches on people who are hosting servers or even when i am hosting a game. It seems like to me that people are cheating in some form or way. I mean there is just no way possible to build a full army of nova or masaria in under 5 minutes! specially since with the masaria it takes 33 seconds to build just one peacebringer, and i was attacked and killed with 10 peacebringers in under 5 minutes. With the nova they attacked me with over 20 of there tanks and 20 of there planes in under 6 minutes.

    Anyone else dealing with people doing this??

    Novus is able to build units faster than the other two factions (the Hierarchy builds units in groups of three, but they take longer to build) and Masari can speed up production by taking two Architects (builder units) to their structures.

    I think they just built their production structrures before you or had their economy up and runing before you did. What faction where you using?

    i was playing the masarai.....and its not that they built up there units well before i did.

    Its the fact they had 30 tanks in a VERY VERY short period of time. im talking like 5 minutes, all i was able to do in that time frame was just start to get troops set up. i know that they can build units quick but 30 tanks cost alot and the match was starting out with small cash setup.

    This happened a few times, and the other matches i did online went normal both sides built up units and fought. just seems very fishy that someone could built that many troops that fast with little start up cash and only a few minutes.

    Look at replays on gamereplays. They should show you how to build up quickly.
    Sometimes it seems like cheating when playing against better players. I know this feeling from other games.
    Fixed in patch.

    Not to come off as rude, but maybe you should just try getting better?
    I mean, these things aren't unheard of, and it's not like you enter a cheat and get 30 tanks, y'know?

    the same rules on a xbox version of the gam is not the same for pc that means you can mod things on the pc copy of the game that can not be done on the xbox 360 copy.

    Despite the fact that this was a dead thread necro'd for no real reason, I'll put my 2 cents in and say that yes, it is possible to get an army of tanks (Novus OR Masari) in under 5 minutes.

    It's commonly known as a rush, and it sucks to be the recipient of it if you're not used to it. But it's possible, and a lot of us are fully aware of how to create it.

    If you're hit with one of these and with to counter it, the best idea is to save it as a replay and view it later, or barring that then go to gamereplays and watch how others do it (as a previous poster already mentioned).
