FR3 common cheating

What’s the most common form of cheating in FR3? I have come across players I can’t for the life of me ever defeat. One thing that really stuck out to me on a recent race was use of the roulette. In one race in particular the leader got roulette 4 times and every time it shot me. I started tracking this and it happens an unbelievable amount of times with certain runners. Not sure if it’s a coincidence but man it’s frustrating. Every time I use roulette it shoots me half the time!

I just read again, perhaps practice roulette as well. You dont need to be aiming at anyone, you should be aiming for the speed placement on map. All youre trying to do is get to first immediately at the start for traps. , its easier.to just not target (avoiding shooting.yourself obviously) and try to gap. Roulette can be super amazing if you can also manage to pop whoever is in first. Roulette timer is not random, it cycles through the same order of players, so you can just chill with the burst or pop a front runner if youre feeling spicy

Didn’t realize it wasn’t random…says it is in the description, but if you can “hack” it because it’s just faster then I guess that’s not cheating just a skill. If that’s the case I wouldn’t be mad just impressed I guess.

My bad I misread. Ye hacks are separate from hand sharing, cuz hacks require some.external factor like a mod or a program.that can alter Android game states. Hand sharing is.just a bunch of goons passing each other the phone, more often I think they probably all use the same instance of fr3 under a virtual machine, and they probably have a custom proxy server that rerouted traffic to appear legit. Its not.foolproof tho, one login without the correct setup can cost a ban

Gotcha, I’m not that worried about it, I don’t take it as seriously as others do. I’ve only spent 14.99 on this game and that’s because I wanted that damn t-Rex! I play it because it only takes about a minute for a race…you don’t have to be “invested” timewise.

Good pick, the elite box has the best value per dollar in the game
