What IS accurate is that you HAD to have spent at least 45 minutes on Alien Hominid. At LEAST.

nah, i spent 2 minutes getting to a safe spot, 1 minute writing a macro that literally did this:

A // A button = fire in alien hominid
delay 5 // that's 5 milliseconds or .005 seconds

restart

took a shower, ate, came back and killed my dude off. You can get unlimited points by staying ducked and hitting left, fire fire, right, fire fire over and over again as well, but you'll get RSI (wrist injuries) from it pretty quickly since the FBI guys are only 150 a pop.

Is that how you hit 38 homers too?

Maybe I'm retarded but I've maxed out at 12. I hit the pitcher more than I hit it out.

no, macros aren't good at random things.

the trick is to look for the white X and keep swinging.

OK, well your computer spent 45 minutes. Hilarious nonetheless.

Re: Warpath Arcade anyone?

yeah, what was funnier is when my computer was making me 8$ an hour 24 hours a day to just leave it alone while it created fake money for me (credits on SWG) which i converted to US dollars with the help of ebay and silly people that appreciate the value of non existant things.

Re: Warpath Arcade anyone?

NY_Skinsfan and I want to know how is that 144 is the best golf score when each of us got 58. Isn't a lower score better in golf?

This is an issue for this game on all sites. There is a patch or something that Matty can do about it but I have no idea what it is.

simply reverse scoring... take whatever the point total it sends you and subtract it from 144... that way 144 strokes = 0 and 18 (theoretical minimum) would give you 126.

Re: Warpath Arcade anyone?

OK I have to say it...

That Guy, arent the macros defeating the purpose of the game in community? I'm sure most people would like a shot at the top ten without having to write macros or modifying packets to send to the game server.

no, cause i could have just as easily sat there for two hours myself like i did with space invaders. i had one press "a" repeatedly while i took a shower for alien hominid (could have taken the shower and come back, it was impossible to die, but i like avoiding rsi risks when posible) and i had one check for red and hit new game if blue came up in the poker game. everything else is legit. the arkanoid game and hominid game are borked by the creators and contain ways to crazy points if you get lucky (warping up the ledge near the grenade guy and getting the correct bounce in arkanoid).

I've explained everything pretty thoroughly here and cost myself some records (home run derby etc) because of it :P and just so you know, writing a macro for space invaders or arkanoid or duck hunt etc would take MUCH longer than just playing through to set a score.

and before accusing anyone of modifying packets, you better have some proof.

Atleast you admit that using macros isnt legit...

I never accused you of manipulating packets. But I dont see the difference between using macros and just plain hacking the game.

This is a sore issue for me because I admin a Counter Strike server and have seen a great game die because of script kiddie with their aimbots and wallhacks.

I detest cheating

there's a huge difference between a wall hack or aimbot and a macro that hits one button repeatedly :P come on now, maybe that horse you're on is a bit too high.
