Hey everyone,

I know I already asked many questions about it but I can't seem to find peace of mind...

Like I got explained not so long ago, using macros or programmable keys for things like simple chainfire, is considered as cheating.

Now my question is, if cheating is unfair, how to be fair to players having a huge lag like myself or those not able to use chainfire like everyone seems to know how to?

I'm not saying using macros for everything should be allowed, but as it is very easy to get a program from the internet to perform such things, it's not about "doing what nobody else can do" because everyone has access to it. (Even me and I am far from being an IT genius... I killed my motherboard by simply mounting a graphics card...)

I love this game, I love to fly around, trade, fight and have fun with people all over the world, but it slowly makes me wonder where the fun is since getting killed every time in pvp is not really fun to me... I don't want to invest in an brutally expensive internet connection so I just take what I can get to have a small chance to survive a little longer...

Sorry for so many lines, I just wanted to explain my points of view.

Tell me yours please.

As I told you ingame. You don't need a third party tool for it, and there is no justification in using one. If you have lag issues, that's sad, but that's no excuse to do so, because there are enough people here that just would open up a nice interracial vs redhead video in the background to cause lags for the excuse.

Its fairly easy. You play the game fair by playing with the things you can do without programming little helpers and such stuff. If you need a faster refire rate get 8.33 guns, they are good as well.
To the lag, it does not only bother you but also makes you jump in your opponents view, so you got an advantage there as well.
If you dont want to die pick your fights more careful or train to get better. Its not that easy to get into PvP here but it is very possible.
Also dont mind dieing, its a game and you dont loose anything if you do. I guess most players tend to die often in bigger fights, I see no problem there.
But getting an advantage by means not given by the game is outright cheating, its right everyone can do that but just as well everyone is able to use other cheats.

Play fair or get problems. You can chainfire pretty easy, they are a few tutorials on the forum.

Also, we got a few player who are not clean, we don't more of this kind.

Just for you, here is my small tutorial.

Weapon group 1: All your weapons
Wg 2: Your weapons without the imps
Wg 3: Only 2 of your weapons

Now, when you activate your Wg 3 hold right click, now switch to wg2 and you finally use chainfire. You can also use your 6 weapons groups and have for each weapon a group, but trust me, it's useless.

The thing is, I know those tutorials, but I just can't use that... I don't fire with the mouse, it just feels awkward for me. But I'm no unclean player (I shower everyday xD) no seriously, I'm just trying to find a way not to die every time... Whatever... I didn't know it was considered as cheating until today and I'm gonna stop using it.

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

not to be rude mate but maybe thats why you keep dieing, its very hard to use and get good at firing like man i dont know anyone who ever has,

W,A,S,D really should be used for straff left right up and down and or turret view fly controls, rolling only works in cpt ship's that iv noticed aswel
also try using free fligh so your not holding left mouse button to control and re-map right mouse button to the fire main weapon group

just my 2cents Smile
