Incident I will describe here, occured earlier today on Payload Stocks UK server.

I did not know about procedures to report such things until that happened, so I will only describe it and if you feel it is worth pursuing, you could keep a close eye on the reported player. I will use a simple altered screenshot of part of the map for demonstration.

We were playing badwater. I was a BLU spy, he was RED engineer. My team was still involved in a fight for the first point, while I slipped past REDs defence to check out the roof, because my team was not far from capturing the point. I saw one engie on top, just starting the set up. While I reached the roof, he had a dispenser set up by the middle block. I am not quite sure what else. I think a sentry on the edge looking down to second point and starting with the tele, but anyway it is irrelevant.

Now what happened. All the way from my base to the roof I was invisible. No uncloaking whatsoever. I have not bumped into anyone. No explosions of enemy fire near me. Nothing that could alert anyone of my presence.

On roof: Look at the picture. From our starting points (spy and engie on picture), I moved first (line 1) to my right in front of him. He stopped wrenching and changed to shootgun and turned towards me directly. I moved left and he moved on to the other side as well (line 2 and line 2). I moved back and stopped (line 3) he moved back as well (line 3) still facing me eye to eye. He was completely still like me for a second or two and then fired at me and killed me. Keep in mind that I was cloaked all this time. I did not uncloak at all. I have not bumped at him. I did not pick up anything. Psychic engie?

Hmm. are you sere your CnD didn't run out at some point? Your shadow can be seen, in that case.

It happened to me before that I emptied my Cloak and Dagger while having to evade enemy fire ment for my teammates or trying to go for a long run, but this time I was going on "safe" ground and kept my eye close on the meter and stopped to fill it before it was neccesary to do so.

Weird. Either someone saw you go by and warned him, or somewhere, you slipped up and were seen. Or he could have some sort of spy detection. If he comes back, take a demo.

I guess it's possible, that even though I remember being extra carefull, I might have slipped.

Although this does not explain him looking directly at me with my cloak at full.

OK. If I see him and go spy, I'll do that.

How do you guys record this things?

Everytime when you see a guy, you just record the whole game, hoping he'll do something again?

Yesterday I found another guy. He was an invisible soldier or was able to shoot through walls. First time I just thought, how the hell. Second time it was obvious and I started recording, but of course he didn't do it again. (at least I dominated the cheating out of him from there on)

[+Henry Spencer 117]

That's actually a glitch. If you're getting hit by invisible rockets or flames, or some guy can't see you, just record a demo and it'll be fixed.

Basically, if someone is doing something fishy, go spec and watch him while recording a demo.

Unfortunately it's becoming harder to spectate because of the new autobalance crap. At least one time I wanted to spec to watch someone suspicious and I couldn't spec because it switched me back.

It was only accident, besides him could warn, is possible you someone has noticed, the shot in emptiness has turned out.
