I've already been testing OMP and I can tell you, at first glance, cheats will HATE it. Briefly, ran my tweaked LaFerrari and each time it was a DNF displayed. Albeit I got 1st(and 2nd in the same race!) and the points. I think what will occur is, the cheats will find at the end of the week, they'll either get 3GC or banned. Still too early to tell. Im away and dint have all I need to extroplate Not sure I’m following or seeing that. I saw three people cheat so far with super fast cars. They came on 1st, me 2nd. They gained points and I lost a couple, didn’t see a dnf Okay, being away at the moment means I cant ss without removing offending overlay. Im still in very early stages of testing the apparent anti-cheat methods. Thus far, I can say that it cetainly looks like clients/servers are looking at car data after every race. At what point does data-hacking become undetected? Too early for me to tell. The DNF penalty for a cheat is massive.

I ran my tweaked Laferrari serveral times and was collecting points quickly. Was at 700 or so when I got slapped with a DNF after finishing 1st. The penalty was 170. As you now from before, DNF penalties werent that tough until you were getting to up over 1000.

Again, its just too early to tell. The cheats might think its all as usual, but I really think there will be many tears shed at some point. FM may be testing the waters in a way that means the current methods just dont deliver the way they did pre-6.5 The next update I imagine will have measures more refined. Cheats just cant help themselves, clearly.

Time will tell, as will I when I get back to base to my toys and not be stuck with a mini qwerty on my droid.
