    Known Cheater

    Posting this here because I don't know where else to post it. This guy is using a speed hack of some sort (fast acceleration). It's subtle, but it's also obvious to someone like me who knows the game. I have confirmed this with several other riders on the Trials Facebook Group, and he has definitely been cheating against several of our fellow riders in the bunker, as well as on the leaderboards. I don't have a video (phone sucks), but I have a screenshot of his name (SURCHOK).

    Devs/Mods, please feel free to double check me, but this guy should be removed from the game. It is unfair to other riders who earned their golden tickets fair and square. I wasted about 20 beating him on one track before I realized he was cheating when he took it back. It was really subtle on the first attempt (only one spot where I was suspicious), but on the second run he did, there were several areas where he was clearly accelerating faster than he should be able to. Very obvious with the Armadillo.

    The imgur app hasn't been working for me lately, so I just tweeted the screenshot. Here is the link:

    I don't normally like calling people out but this is pretty blatant. I also know there are several others that do this, but I have not caught them red-handed, so not much I can do. Thank you!

    And I can also confirm that he has been removed from the Legends Leaderboard too! (On Android.)

    Well Justin, it looks like they sorted it out in very short notice. Your wish came true! The thing is, we saw the tracks that he completed on Bonxy, so he isn't experienced and he doesn't have a lot of tracks at all, and he was constantly #5/#6 on the Legends Leaderboard, so he must have been (and was) constantly doing all that against EVERY opponent he came across, and blatantly too.

    Also, if he was cheating against every opponent, some players would have put in a fair share of complaints already against him, and even that video that was posted on here about the significant evidence of that same cheater as well (on another thread somewhere), so chances are that he was already noted and this thread probably got noticed and they immediately took action, within hours of notice. Good thing to see, but I do want to see more like this, but nicely done.

    ^^^Good news indeed. Let's keep cracking down on these guys. It's honestly the first time I have faced a cheater (that I know of) in the bunker. I guess I've just gotten lucky for the past 2 years lol.

    Hi guys, keeping our Forum Rules in mind, I’d like to ask you guys to not name and shame any suspected cheaters. For now, we’ve taken care of the cheater in question on this thread, but In the future, please PM cheater name(s) directly to Ubi-Negitron or me. Also, you may have noticed that we’ve removed a lot of cheaters from top spots on Android Leaderboards, so don’t worry and keep reporting - we’re keeping an eye out for cheaters as well

    Sorry Cap, I will remember that for next time. I knew this wasn't the right way to do it but I couldn't remember what the proper way was. I will PM you directly next time if I find anything suspicious.

    Thanks!

    We were asked by devs to name cheaters! There are even threads which were used to collate all the names (not that much has been done about it).
