View Full Version : Major Hacks - Updates Needed

Can a Storm8 community staff member please bring the following to the attention of the developers.

Without mentioning any names there seems to be 4 main hacks that are being done at the moment, some of them costing us crowns and resources in the process, which is making the game very unfair and not fun to play when we encounter these things :mad:

1) Crown Boosting - some players seem to boost their crowns without doing any extra attacks. One guy the other night had over 4000 crowns. E.g. I'm on 500 crowns with 10 wins 0 losses... I then jump to 550 crowns while still on 10 wins 0 losses by artificially boosting my number of crowns somehow.

2) Attack Bug - some players attack with 1 warrior or similar and the battle ends within a few seconds giving them 100% win including 100% of your available resources in that battle. When the victim logs in, in their log they see they lost up to 40 crowns and a lot of coin/spellstones. When they watch the replay it ends within a few seconds with only maybe one army unit being deployed.

3) Multiple Upgrade Bug - some players are able to upgrade 10 or 15 buildings at a time even tho you can buy a maximum of 4 worksheds. When you go to their base you can see many buildings being upgraded at the one time.

4) Permanent Shield Bug - some players seem to be able to hack their local account to give themselves a 24/7 shield. I understand you can buy a 7 day shield with gems but I'm talking about players who will attack many members of your alliance daily but they are forever hiding behind a shield at any time of the day when you try to revenge attack them back.

If a Storm8 community staff member can please bring the above to the attention of the developers asap so they can hopefully release a fix for these before we lose too many more crowns/coins/spellstones that would be much appreciated.

Thanks :cool:

Hi, I am currently level 51 with 1100+ crowns in one of the top alliances and have been attacked as described above - a low level player (15) with 1400+ crowns (but not listed in the ranks) attacked me earlier today, took 7 crowns, 242k+ gold and 554k+ spell stones however on replay there is just one warrior who appears and then the replay finishes a second later. Clearly a hack. I am happy to supply the said players name if this cannot be corrected by fire mocha. I enjoy this game however I will not continue playing if people can ***** like this - ruins the game for everyone.

Yeah I know who you're talking about. A lot of people got hit by him :(

Also just to add to the list here's another one.

5) When you build something and cancel it you get 50% of your coins/stones back but still get to keep 100% of the exp from the building. If a building is cancelled, then whatever % of coins/stones you get back you should lose that % of exp as well. At the moment if you're rich enough you can just build cancel build cancel build cancel repeatedly to quickly boost your level. I know your level makes no difference to anything at the moment but it might in the future so please fix this before it does matter.

I am ranked second and have been hit twice today resulting in over a 50 crown loss to a level 16 (I am level 71)..
Total rubbish from hacked accounts.. Can not take this game seriously. It needs to be fixed and reversed ASAP

You get hit by him as well :( It's the same guy doing it in the last few hours. Send a PM to FrozenTurtle with screenshot/video links of what happened if you can.

And I have yet another one for the list:

6) Mass Army Bug - some players seem capable of building a never-ending army. E.g. I heard (but haven't seen it myself) that someone was attacked the other day by over 100 bears. Considering you can only get about 240 troop slots with all maxed barracks... 100 bears * 5 spots = 500 troop slots required. So there needs to be a way to stop people locally (or however they're doing it) making crazy huge armies and attacking with them. I don't think anyone in the game is going to beat being attacked by hundreds of bears at once...

Finally! Other people are experiencing it as well! After I was attacked several times yesterday by people who hadn't even broken a wall, I came to this forum to see if anyone else had the same problem. When I didn't see anything, I specifically created an account, just so I could start a thread & make comments. I've fallen from rank 20 to 77 last night & now 82 because of this. Please fix!

Sorry to hear that :( If you're able to take a screenshot of your log showing the loss and a video of the battle(s), upload them Youtube/Imageshack/etc. and private message the players name(s) + the links to FrozenTurtle on this forum as he can pass the details onto FireMocha support team.

You guys might not realise this, but the update in my view has done nothing to stop the hackers, I'm going to assume that there are atleast 10 hackers in the top 100 because the level 16 that raided has 1100 crowns (and he hasn't been banned). So I pose this question to you guys, players who have spent months on this game have spent that time in vain, due to the fact that hackers can simply get to where they are in one day.
Now when I say hacks (and pathetic bugs I mean endless supply of troops, and people winning with 10% of my base destroyed (by the way I have photo and video proof). The morale of this lengthy story? Authentic players are continuously raided by these *****s (by the way some are paying customers) who take their resources, take their crowns, and just completely throw the game in chaos (in my view). So now the question remains, do we even get compensated for this? The hackers are now trying to blend in so what's the use? I'm 100% sure authentic players would agree, and just like me they are outraged.

By no means is this a personal attack but rather i am just expressing frustration on behalf of me, and all the others who have been affected.

Couldn't agree more with you on this. The servers clearly capture details of all attacks and winnings, therefore the developers should easily be able to take a log of all attacks by players that they ban from the game and refund these attacks. That way it isn't biased towards any clan etc... in the game merely what each individual player has lost

Question is....will they do this???

Hi guys!

I just had a long conversation with our lead engineer. It sucks that hacking is happening, and we're aggressively doing what we can to fix it.

The fix for artificially inflating trophies is already in the game. No one will be able to upgrade more buildings than they have builders, but automatically detecting people who are currently have more upgrade timers than their cap is not possible. If you find any, report them to us and we can ban them.

The other hacks are being worked on. We understand that fairness is what makes this kind of game fun, and we want to make sure it's the most fun for everyone. :)

The above problems, should be your first priority to fix! I have sent a pm with photos attached yesterday. Your automated email advises that it will take a few days to be processed, in the meantime am I to sit and wait for this lvl 24 from kingdom attack me again? I was attacked again this morning. Its frustrating and takes out the fun of playing.. I enjoy this game, so please make this your priority. I also hope u will be looking into compensating/refunding us for the lost of crowns and resources.

Technically, these people are stealing. If you have paid for gems to enhance your base then you have parted with cash.

I know it's not easy for you guys when the game is new as there is bound to be bugs & hacks which you won't even know of till someone reports them to you. I just want to thank you, FrozenTurtle, Maguar and the team for your efforts with this. It is great that you guys are doing something and more importantly that you're letting us know on the forums. Even a message like this to let us know you've spoken with the lead engineer or Frozen's update(s) over the last day is quite re-assuring because at least we know something is being done even if it might take some time.

Thanks for fixing that artificial crown boosting hack already. Possibly a different team involved here, but can you guys please also do something about the players who have already abused it (I've got a ticket open from 4 days ago with screenshot proof of 3 separate incidents of this hack that you could confirm from logs on your end... all about the same player lol).

Keep up the great work! :cool:

Well, I got attacked by someone in the top 10 and she stole 13 crowns off of me whilst only getting 44%! And just then, I discovered that I had lost 30-40 crowns without doing anything! I didn't attack and 1 person attacked me but I won 1 crown.

Is it possible to be ranked 18 with fewer than 120 battles and fully maxed weapons and fully maxed walls? It's either a hack or some people have more dollars than sense. Happy to be wrong but seems fishy.

I reckon it's a hacked base too mate because there are not enough vaults to pay for those upgrades

Grog76
10-07-13, 11:45 PM
It costs about 10m coins to fully max a wall brick. That's roughly 3500 gems to instantly do that or about $35 AU to do that. Multiply that by 200 and you need to spend $7k AU for the walls alone. That doesn't include the weapons. Some people may really love this game and put in cash to level up. I can't believe this player now ranked top 5 has earned the coins and stones from 120 battles to nearly fully max their base. I also don't believe somebody has spent about $10k on this game.

You can not, even with unlimited gems, you can not do those upgrades without the vaults so it's been hacked!!

I've also been 'beaten' by DemonWind of Elite Assassins - similar to the above poster. Used warriors for about 10 seconds and then I'm beten and about 235k resources gone.

Please developers, bury your heads in the sand and do nothing.

Perhaps you need to review the comment in bold. It's obviously still happening.

Coupled with the incident raised in this thread http://forum.storm8.com/showthread.php?59334-Lost-300k-resources-but-attacker-got-0 - which hasn't been actioned to my satisfaction by way of resources being returned back to me - I've now lost nearly 600k in resources.

He/She's already shielded so they either use a hack to stay shielded or somebody has revenged and walked away with both your and my resources.

You're braver than I. I didn't even attempt to Retaliate. If I did, he would just retaliate against me again and I'd lose another 40 crowns. I'm just hoping storm8 comes through with the ticket I submitted. Clearly they are going to ban him, but I want my crowns (plus interest) and resources (plus interest) back (interest being the 15 hour shield I have up after his attack).

Sadly Chianti, I wouldn't be holding my breath regarding suitable compensation. However it strikes at the integrity of the game. Why risk putting money into it if resources - which are effectively a currency - can be taken illegally.

Btw, you can still check the base of somebody who's raided you without you losing your shield, provided you don't start an attack and you back out within 30 seconds.

That is a fair point, my friend. I've spent a decent amount of money on this game. The money I spent (real life currency) was used to obtain in-game currency (crowns/coins/gems). If support does not return what was taken from me due to a bug in their game, I have grounds for a lawsuit. Not that I'd ever take it that far, but I hope they realize how severe this is and return what was stolen from me.

You can use the Report a Problem link in the emailed purchase receipt. They might also close this game like their other games, seeing that they aren't paying too much attention on fixing this game.

Thanks Mossad for the warning about that player that joined our clan. No way he could have beaten your base at his level. He has since been kicked and I have warned our members that if the exploit any bugs they too will be kicked. I'm glad this bug has been fixed as Lexuser from Kingdom Beeches tried this glitch on me 12 hrs ago and fail. People like this should be banned. Play the game as it's meant to be guys.

The appropriate actions have already been taken on this player.

For reference, any players who have been banned will still have the option to revenge, but their account will not affect any rankings or be available to attack when searching for an opponent.

Thanks for all the reports to keep this game fair for everyone! :)

Some warriors and archers, a ~20 second battle and 4% damage later... his taken 40 crowns off me plus a lot of resources.

Frozen I've pm'd you the other screenshots from the battle so you can see for yourself although I think you can watch replays on our account as well.

I'm too scared to take my 16 hour shield off now in case he hits me again. Which is costing me even more crowns from possible defensives I could be getting now.

Sose has been removed from the leader board however he's 1603 crowns are still adding to kingdoms total score and since he has a shield they will remain there until you remove him. Please can you be sure this happens before tournament ends otherwise it is unfair. Thank you

I was attacked by the Level 51 member of KingDom whose name has two Chinese characters. He did a small percent of damage, and did ZERO damage to my Vaults and Royal Hall, but he "won" the battle and stole hundreds of thousands of Spellstone.

I did the simplest thing to prevent all of this...uninstall the game & delete. I was getting attacked & lost most of it & when I revenged, their level 1 & 2 defenses able to knock out my level 2 bears like it was nothing which has higher hit points & can do a lot more damage than their defense can take. I'm not being a sore loser but from replays & watching my army in action, clearly something is wrong. Really, getting annoying; there are way too many flaws in this game. So, I'm done. I'll check back next year & see if everything is fixed, otherwise, I'm not wasting my time promoting my defenses & army when people are able to *****, it's pointless.

I've attached a link of a Battle that happened to a clan member "a****a_69" 11 hours ago after downloading the latest update 1.3. This player "TALAB" from the clan Pinoy Tsinelas finished the battle at 8% damage and won. He took 33 crowns from a****a_69 even though by the game rules he LOST:confused:. Our clan is rank 4 and is desperately trying to get 4th, but with players exploiting these constant glitches I don?t feel it?s possible. It makes the game considerabley unfair and our loyal clan members will once again miss out on the prize. Some have bought gems with real life money for a game that?s full of problems. I hope you can correct this ASAP and reinstate the wins and crowns to all players that have been affected. :mad:PLEASE BAN THESE PLAYERS THAT ARE CONSTANTLY EXPLOITING THE GAMES FLAWS!!!!!

This happened to me too, and I ended up losing about 195000 gold and 12000 stones as well as 17 crowns. The player summoned 21 level 2 archers and spread them out around my city, and 9 seconds later, the battle ends and I ended up losing even though I had 0% destroyed! The player was named milds from the clan THAI RATMAN.

Please fix this and reimburse my gold and stones! It takes forever to get them.

Oh and that Stormie loop is soooooo annoying. 10 plus times in a row and then One of the top three then Stormed another 10 times. Is this just because there are two few battles for players in top 100s because of the way battles are matched. I'd like to see battles matched of level not crowns.

Thanks for your answer. I am happy that I'm not the only one thinking like that.

Well, I was very surprised to see Lv10 walls for the first time. He had about 10 of them the first time I watched. Half an hour later I watched his Kingdom again, and he had 60 Lv10 walls. I heared that they cost 6M each.

60 x 6M = 360M

If you buy those 360M that should be about 1500 - 2000$ depending in what currency you buy! From the post of octopus I unterstand that he did not buy gems but earned them by attacking big targets. The largest target I ever saw was 1.3M.

Let's say he's a genious farmer and uses his pile of hard earned gems to restore his army after attacking! If he does one attack in one minute, and made 50 walls in half an hour:

50 x 6M / 30 matches = 10 mio per match

A question that only top 10 players can answer: Are 10 mio average per match possible?

But the thing what made me think that it is fishy: Why don't the other top 5 players do the same? Is HOPR so much smarter? (a hearty sorry to HOPR if my suspition is so wrong)

To have a 10million per match loot is impossible lol... You should at least have 50million in the vault ( which is not possible because of the storage capacity) to have a 10 million loot... Using gems to buy coins, let us say he wins 2000 gems per month, how long has this game started? that will still not cover the entire 360 million worth of coins...

So, how did this really happened?

Lol it is possible to upgrade the lower level walls after hitting bigger targets but it is impossible to upgrade ~72 level 8 walls to level 10 by attacking people. That requires 612 million or so coins which you won't get in a day (or week) of attacks. Those upgrades require gems.

lol... he didn't get them by attacking anyone I can guarantee you that.

I have the same kingdoms to attack as he does and I can tell you now other than Stormie most targets have a couple of hundred thousand resources at most.

He did about 612 million coins worth of upgrades within a day (those level 10 walls you see were upgraded from level 8 initially). Even with 500k coins per attack that's 1224 attacks he'd have to do in a day. Even with 1 million coins per attack that's still 600+ attacks (and we rarely ever get those sort of targets available anymore). In the day he did this... his win/loss record changed by less than 50 attacks.

So no he didn't attack anyone for the wall upgrades. Instead he bought a lot of gems (and considering how much time his invested in the game it would of been very silly for him to try hacking them). Oh Sparkly look what you've done you've got everyone wondering haha ;)

I got attacked by 15 archers and it only took few sec!!!
It is impossible for him to attack and won !!! I got the replay , and I lost crown too!!Not even reach 5% of invaded and he won!! Hacking is it??!!! I have 16hrs shield with me now!!!

Thanks for your answer. I am happy that I'm not the only one thinking like that.

Well, I was very surprised to see Lv10 walls for the first time. He had about 10 of them the first time I watched. Half an hour later I watched his Kingdom again, and he had 60 Lv10 walls. I heared that they cost 6M each.

60 x 6M = 360M

If you buy those 360M that should be about 1500 - 2000$ depending in what currency you buy! From the post of octopus I unterstand that he did not buy gems but earned them by attacking big targets. The largest target I ever saw was 1.3M.

Let's say he's a genious farmer and uses his pile of hard earned gems to restore his army after attacking! If he does one attack in one minute, and made 50 walls in half an hour:

50 x 6M / 30 matches = 10 mio per match

A question that only top 10 players can answer: Are 10 mio average per match possible?

But the thing what made me think that it is fishy: Why don't the other top 5 players do the same? Is HOPR so much smarter? (a hearty sorry to HOPR if my suspition is so wrong)

Just wanted to chime in and say that we did thoroughly check out HOPR's account again. We have verified that all these upgrades were performed with legitimate actions in-game. :)

Hi all,

I got attacked and beat with only taking 2% damage. The attacker was only a level 16 compared to my level 40, and had 39 level 2 warriors. The replay ended in 18 seconds and he stole over 100k gold and about 200k stones, and 12 crowns. His name was Yu2043 and he was clanless.

PLEASE do something about this! I still haven't been compensated for the last hacker that attacked me, even though I reported him on these forums!

Another day, another 34 crowns lost to a hacker. This time HACLE from Backdraft. None of my replays work, but a lvl 26 with 39 lvl 2 archers wouldn't have even hit 5%. With crowns impossible to find a the moment, and well over 100 lost to hackers, the complete absence of any action to my account is unacceptable. Why is it that many other players in my alliance got crowns reinstated in 24 or 48 hours and I'm waiting weeks with nothing. Exactly what is it I'm supposed to be doing differently?

Frozen Turtle....I have reported players before and notice they are still in the game, so please tell if I am wasting my time.
This morning when I logged into the game. I noticed I'd been attacked 7hrs ago by "dr hacker" he used 65 x level 2 soldiers and stole gold,blue and 19 crowns. As the game updated I can't replay this battle which is currently at the very top of my log. I can only provide you with a screenshot of my log. I know he didn't beat me fair and square and request that you look into this matter. I have spent real money one this game and am getting pretty frustrated with all these problems. I went to warn my clan and after posting about this hacker, I saw that a member had been attacked by the same dr hacker at around the same time and took 24 crowns from him. 11075

There's a player ranked in the top 50 with 1751 crowns and is at level 24; and has only two army posts and two barracks. The base is modest with low level buildings.

Has participated in little more than 100 battles. If previous experience is to be considered, this seems very suspicious.

i think that the entire clan should not be allowed to win tourney gems by letting a member *****/ hack, ive experienced all above except being attacked online, it is frustrating as bratzilla stated, and it should be whole clan banned since some have multiple accounts and clan leaders should kick and not allow them in clan,
