    PewDiePie got serious competition

    On a funny note= PewDiePie needed YEARS to get to 64m followers on Youtube. If the Saga continues in that rapid-fire mode in TheCrew 2, some players will surpass him in 3 days or at least on this Friday. Pewdz seems to do it very wrong lol.

    On a dead serious note=

    Since that **** got literally viral on Youtube, one can not count how many damn stupid ****ed-over casual gaming players have gotten macro software out and running.

    The worst thing is, for the case with randomly activating the map, One3dmt and I (and Im sure many others too) have suggested a quick but very effective solution on Facebook for Ivory how to fix this. And they tadaa.... didnt. Le Cringe got very real.

    And so it came that at a time Lisa got passed by GP2 -and Ivory + Ubi still love cheaters.

    This is a shot from 20 hours ago, numbers increase constantly. To view in full size, right-click picture and open in new tab

    GP2 looks shattered from it all. He should get some lunch and grab some sleep.

    Proof gentlemen.... video proof..... Randomer on the internet has no evidence to back up his claim.

    Maybe someone should pm one of those listed.

    Those numbers are obviously fake. I don't know how they accomplished that, but they certainly didn't do it by doing the Monster Truck grind, even before Ubi patched it. It's just like seeing the leaderboards for races such as rally raid slaloms with leaders destroying any time close to mine in cars such as the drag build Corvette ZR1. Seriously....What?

    I don't care though. I like to look at where I fall in the leaderboards when I do certain activities because at least I know I'm competing with players who are playing the game legit with real numbers. I know there are players well over the Icon 500 level who did the Monster Truck grind. That was super boring and now they no longer play. I'm personally only level 85 and enjoying the game for what it is. The level race is the only race I don't care about.

    Are you somewhat stupid or are you from another game and therefore have absolutely no clue whats going on in TheCrew2? Or even both?

    That picture is from the Follower leaderboard wall which you can see in EVERY of the 4 HQs ingame. Its a big screen mounted on a trailer, you can not miss it.


    And when you click on it, it shows the players with the highest amount of followers. Right-Click the pic, open in new tab for full size=


    Do I need to say more? I dont think so.


    The games Terms of use clearly say you may not use any third-party software to gain an unfair advantage over other players, you may not abuse new or known game bugs on the same purpose and if you do so, this will lead to a temporary suspension or a permanent ban.

    But nothing, just NOTHING happens to those cheaters!!!

    You say Videoproof? Ha, that has been given almost at launch day=

    Lisa Love in action= https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAAMEl_jw4Y

    Those numbers are not fake. They are achieved by running the computer with the game like 24/7 while using a macro script that moves the vehicles so the player

    a) does not have to play himself/herself -because such high follower numbers are not possible when you have to sleep 6-8 hours per day, have to make a dump at the toilet and maybe go to school or work.

    b) their vehicle does a 'stunt combo' which gives a certain amount of followers, then when the combo reaches max followers, the automated macro software activates the map -and this is the game bug!- which SAVES the achieved combo and then resets it to 0 and then the vehicle moves on in the same way.

    And all Ivory did that one friday was changing some follower count on some moves but they did not solve the problem with the map function.

    Hey InstaFaceTweet,

    We are aware of players using macros to top the leaderboards. We recently talked about this topic in our most recent Livestream. Please take a look at this clip.

    In the meantime, let's keep this discussion civil and not call other people names.

    From the Twitch clip 37sec time mark.

    IF Ivory / Ubi has team constantly checking the leaderboards, then why do I see for example that player in many lists having top 20 entries with vehicles that can NOT do the speed? Click on it:



    Does look very legit, doesnt it?
