He ruined the game for 20+ people and wasted all our time. The response I often got was "deal with it" or "cheat back." I don't think the devs seem to really care either because i saw responses like "don't play with those people" but how the hell are you supposed to know what kind of person is joining your game? Are you basically saying don't play multiplayer because we don't want to fix the cheating problem? Anyway, this had to be brought up and the devs have to see this and do something about it. I started asking around about this and searching to see if this is a known cheat. Spending that much so early makes me think he cheated away his national spirits at the start of the game OR somehow cheated to add more pp. He also used pp to bring in both the German and the Italian scientists. He also changed his laws and government and added numerous advisors which isn't possible with the amount of pp France normally gets, at the start of the game still crippled, with the national spirit you must take a certain focus to remove, much later in the game. While we were trying to figure out how he broke the game and to what extent, we noticed that he had no national spirits. In fact, he didn't take any of the defensive focuses. Now, I know you can extend the Maginot line.but that's not what they did. The first hint that he was cheating was that he had level 10 forts along the Belgian border. I saved and loaded the game afterward to see what they did and took screen shots. The France player somehow cheated in multiple ways. This was the worst case of cheating in a game I've ever seen.
