MB coins hacked ?
I wonder if people found a way to hack MB coins or if they have really spent money for them, because I see a lot of people building 2-3 FOB at the same time, like this player (not saying that this player cheat):

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=585748406

Any info on that ? Because then if we tell Konami that people can have 9999 MB coins maybe they will put an anti cheat since they will lose a lot of money, players will develloppe a lot of stuff in an instant until they run out of ressources.

That's nothing. I've seen a guy tonight who has 4 fully completed FOBs. I myself have 4 FOBs but only 3 are fully developed. The last one is still sitting on 2/4 and the 3rd platforms are almost finished. But to have all 4 platforms fully developed? That guy must have spent no joke $150 on that FOB alone.

It's cheap and you get some for free so I doubt it.
What I do know is that there is cheats that can bypass the making of FOBs instead of waiting days or spending MB coins.

Well I doubt people bought them, or then a lot of people are crazy..... cheap ? Well it cost 10 $ for an FOB so I don't know about that....

I am retired and have sufficient income to purchase as many MB coins as I desire. Does this make me a cheat; if you work from age 14 to 65 you will have the opportunity earn and possess disposable income to spend friviously on games through micropurchases.

Not a cheat but you are supporting greatly FOBs pay 2 win model, you need 3 - possible 4 FOBs to develope grade 8 & when come Grade 9 weapons/ armor giving you an unfair advantage over those who can't or refuse to pay/ support such a dispicable system.

For some reason I don't belive you, a 65 year old person putting money to build 3 FOB at the same time would gain what ? PF rank are full of cheaters, for the rest even if you instant build all weapon I don't really see a point, so I doubt any old person would be stupid enough to do that.
No offense dude.

I doubt having more or less FOB mean a thing, you can still land headshots with a level 1 non lethal gun it will instant KO a guard no matter the level of his armor, so saying that it's a pay to win is kinda.... stupid I guess, even for PF rank since some cheaters have 10 000 000 in attack, defense and durability....

It has absolutely nothing to do with the PF battles. I am routinely beaten by others who have ZERO forces, defensive and offensive ratings of over a million. The cheaters now have their own infil tab ( High Ranking PFs) I purchased the 2nd FOB loc with the free MB coins, the 2nd & 3rd in total $20; that's not much money to me. Life isn't fair; you have your finacial prioities that influence your decisions. I understand your point ; however, your arguement is with Konami not other players. I am rated at Esp. 52. The really great infiltrators (I am not one of them, 1270 / 2400+ invasions) are in my opinion veteran online "run & gun" players with years of experience. In no way does this pose a disadvantage to me, except when they defend against me or infiltrate and I defend. Their skill comes from experience; I choose not to participate in "run & gun" online gaming. I choose not to roll like a bowling ball, to not transit under the causeways; wear only city camo, in daylight. I crawl like a snake on deck which adds realizism to my experience. I did not nor would I aspire to be #1 in this game; as soon as I reach #50, I'm done a screen shot and next game please. Have a great day,enjoy your experience but please never forget it's just a game not life.

I know this might sound foreign to you, but people do spend actual money on games they own. I had 1500 coins before building a FOB, because of all the scare-mongering about hackers.

Is it really that surprising that people are willing to spend money on 6000 MB coins at the time?

Because it's entirely possible. And they don't have to be wealthy, they just have to be addicted to the game.

MB coins are server side.

However, Fobs and Unit caps seems to be client side, and thus modifiable.

The problem I am having is I constantly running out of resources, hitting ten 4/4 only net me a good 150k resources and I have around 200k unprocessed resources sitting in the containers, I see some people barely have any invasions and have four fully developed fobs, did they also spend the mb coins to insta-complete the online dispatch-resources gathering? those 5 days 30k fuel resources, requiring atleast 700mb coins lol..

Either that, or they just mod their resources and wait the timers out. I'm still surprised that people actually spend mb coins on skipping the wait times.

Yeah it's sounds a bit like it, I understand that people do that in mobile game or facebook game, but hey if Konami see that people buy FOB that's why we will have 6 FOB even tho people says that the 4th one is the last...
