Honest not Trolling but are there CHEATS

[Domonus]

Before the flamers get on and call me a newb, which I am, I wanted to ask about cheats. I played a full game where the other player never missed a knock down. I am aware of the assist and how the stats work but I mean single, double, tripple dice; didnt matter it was always a hit. I have played about 12 games. I only have 3 wins and I am not blaming every loss on the dice, only twice have I met players that had this kinda magic dice. My friend ran into somone last night, his first in 10 games or so who had these kinda rolls.

So hack or a bug that needs fix. Thanks for your time.

Game is rather new, there is probably not much usable cheats out there.
As for the dice roll -- RNG is frustrating: real life or pseudo-random generated (which all video games with any RNG elements use some kind of pseudo rand by the way) are never perfectly evenly distributed. Sometimes someone gets a long lucky streak and sometimes one gets a unlucky streak. It's a property inherit with anything random or pseudo-random. It's not something that can be fixed, at least not the way you want it to be.

normally i'd assume you were just experiencing the nuffle effect, im still skeptical about it but I have bumped into one player who made me suspicious...

Over half his orc team had either +str or +agility including one blitzer who even had +ma to compliment his +agi... even before the game started those were some extremely lucky stat rolls... then when the game started I got a whole stream of unlikely failures as reciever in the first few rounds whilst he got everything he needed to score two fast goals without me hardly doing anything.

then suddenly once his victory was assured it was as if everything returned to normal... I eventually evened the score a little during the second half to 2-1 but only after a grueling up hill struggle against such a powerful team.

I won't say it was cheats but it still felt like an extremely unlucky enough event to make me suspect the possibility.

I don't know about the second part, but the first part could be a team editor. What's his team's TV? Have you got the replay?

[KillianBlack]

Same problem. 45$ for pure frustration. I absolutely want my money back.

[Gnox]

Yeah... I've come off my gaming rig for the night though so can't give a reference. Unless theres a way to watch another players replays? The team I played him with is called Mechanicsburg Jaegers and it was my second last game.

His TV was around 1700

Alt+F4 Opens free play mode, but only in a match and only if you're winning.

I played a dwarf team where the runner had +1 agility, the blitzer had +1 agility and +1 movement... as the only level ups on the team.

That's some extremely lucky rolling right there.

[Jeheil]

Sounds like luck to me.

As for player "ups" being a bit too sexy to believe...I had a BB1 orc team called "Da Perfek 10's". If a player hadn't rolled a special by their 3rd roll, I sold them and started them again. I had a team with 5+str players in, 4 +agi two of whom had +mv...and (drum roll) a +7str, block, Pro +1 AV, Break tackle, Guard troll (called Your'mum) that my opposition spent the entire game trying to down then foul to death (she still lives as do my memories of saying stop stamping on Your'mum just coz you got her down :) ).

So it is 'relatively' easy (with patience) to build a 'specials' team.

Indeed today with all my big guys (trolls ogres etc) if they dont get block on their 4th roll I sell them (break tackle, guard and something like frenzy or juggernaught all being acceptable 1, 2, 3 skills).

I played a game where I got 10 skull rolls in a row, sometimes it happens. I was slightly pi**ed but it happens.

[Hupailija]

If one gets SPPs and money from playing with his friend in private league or in some friendship match I can easily imagine first part to happen. I mean, only thing you really need to do is do loads of games where one player conceeds. Level up is 6 SPP and MVP gives 5 SPP, goal gives 3 SPP too. One would fire players he doesn't like until there is just wanted players left.

For second part, I think that it's just Blood Bowl... I mean, I was playing today against Skaven team who managed to kill my Orc Thrower and wound my Blitzer... I'm ready to belive anything ;)

I am playing a game right now, my opponent has no rerolls and never got a single turnover, even after multiple 1 die blocks, 2 agi dodges. The icing on the cake is when the ball gets pushed out of the field and he happens to have a goblin standing right next to where it get thrown back. On the other hand I'm failing all my GFI and I'm using my rerolls on the very first action every turn.
As soon as we're 2-0 all goes back to normal and I'm able to score in two turns.

I usually don't blame cheats and I know how BB works but this looks very similar to what Helsync described so I'm reporting it.

You're reporting good luck? Okay...

There's no need to be a smartass, I'm merely reporting here that I experienced something oddly similar to another guy here.

It was not a match against a competent coach that I lost and now I'm salty and crying on the forums. It was a match against someone who played as you'd expect someone with zero rerolls would play (long pass with a goblin, black orc dodging, single dice blocks...) and yet never suffered a single turnover until the game was 2-0.

Probably it's just really bad luck, the fact that something similar happened to someone else doesn't mean anything, but I'm still writing about it for the odd chance that there's something else going on.

[Dode]

It will happen - we've all had games like that in BB1. Thousands of games have been played in BB2 and odd things will happen in those games.
