Ok, I see its advantage now.. but how would HCS know whos using it and whos just mashing the attack button? So I don't see how they can make it a bannable offence.
It kills one per load surely? depending on your connection I guess it would seem as instant.
On a zero second refresh with a good connection this would be VERY fast. It obviously also takes away the few milliseconds of reaction between getting to the square and actually killing the titan..
Implementing the delay means they don't have to catch them at all, it's just not worth it to auto-tab anymore lol

The bolded bit is a pretty good reason no?

Then why dont they make Titans show up as LE creatures used to? Each with their own kill link?
The only way you can automate killing that kind of creatures is a script similar to FSHelper that will stall your page loads enough to be useless ;)[/quote]
I think they tried it with a DURL..but they couldn't do multiple spawns so it moved after one kill...im sure it was tested and they changed it back quick

I dunno bout you but my laptop slows to a crawl if I open 8 taps at once never mind have them constantly refreshing. I guess someone on a really high spec PC could do it though.
Yeah, but if you have say 8 tabs open, all with the kill link on auto refreshing, you step on the Titan - bang...8 instant deaths before they changed it
I have to agree with steve here, my laptop doesn't handle more then 2 tabs at a time for titans, 1/2 the time when I am feeling slow I will close skype and everything else as my processor is my main limitation on speed. (my lap top likes to get very hot during titans, I just hope it holds out till crystal

It still is, but there isn't that much benefit..just means when you step on it you'll get one instant kill...and you will get the kill right on the point of 2 seconds as well

Ok... but they can still work then no? And I think I can honestly say, I've never seen a scripter,, in a long time anyway lol
They'd probably still work but what's the point when it can be, oh I dunno, played properly instead of being a lazy, cheating wretch? This puts EVERYONE on an even footing.
While I have not hunted a Titan, I have hunted Behemoths several times in Sigma. I have a feel for this version of hunting and I can say, from a personal stand point, that this is fair!
Thats a script? I thought auto refresh was allowed? if its not you might as well ban all titan hunters coz im sure everyone has their map on auto lol
Auto refresh is allowed as it is in most (if not all?) major browser systems. We cannot ban that. We'd end up terminated 75% + of the game!
Auto refresh is only of use on the map, really. It does not kill the Titan for you.
Please forgive my ignorance, but how is a 2 sec delay any harder on scripting than a 1sec delay. Isn't the only difference a single parameter, the amount of time to delay?
I'll forgive you!
Basically, this puts everyone on even footing, regardless of net connection speed, whether they are scripting, filthy cheats or not. This is fair.
ok grim, lets say you wont change the 2 second delay ( but i do hope you change it to 1 second ). can you increase the skills/potions time too since we need them for colossus/tsuki/fuvayu and even skaldir?
Nope. Rebuff.
Has it ever been categorically said by HCS that using autoreload on the URL is against the rules?
I actually think it has at some point tbh..
Not as such, but I personally regard it as cheap, dirty pool tactics and and I am working on the Coders to remove this possibility, coz it is cheap and dirty.
Who is scripting then? Why are they not banned if there are actually scripters out there?
Because it can be really quite hard to find them. In general it takes a fair bit of investigation by Support.
But we will find you eventually. And scripters WILL be terminated.
Ok, I see its advantage now.. but how would HCS know whos using it and whos just mashing the attack button? So I don't see how they can make it a bannable offence.
It's bloody hard work, but we Will find them.

I like robots! (I'm an Old School Transformers fan! What can I say?) We are working to make Sigma a better game. Sword is in Forns hands now.

Please take Hooftest and try hunting all of the Titans over here with the kill delay..Seeing yourself how vastly different 2 systems are will be better than all the feedback in the world

I use the Keypad to hunt. Using the number of the Beast followed by 0 and the repair option.
Number followed by 0 takes a second, maybe a second and a half.
It's fair.
And stops automation.
