Quick question about multiple hackers/repairers

[PaPpY]

if 2 or more people are hacking the same station at once...does it hack faster? same as if you were repairing.

[Zatrais]

Hacking, not sure havn't heard annything about it.

I'd put my money on that the more people repairing the faster it'll go tho.

[Revulsion]

I doubt more then 1 person could hack something at the sametime. That would make it way too fast to take over something IMO

[�io]

Yeah hacking is most likely not stackable, repairing is.

i think the only way to hack faster is the advanced hacking cert...but then again im not a beta tester so not really sure

[Sando138]

lets see... according to my gamerz intuition, hacking does not stack. imagine a squad of stealthers just dashing into a control room and all of them hacking at once?

now, as for speeding up hacking:

when you start the game, you can use an REK. doesnt matter whether or not you cert hacking, you can hack vehicles and the master control terminal right away.

Hacking cert: increased speed of hacking, ability to hack equipment and vehicle terminals.

Advanced Hacking: much faster than regular hacking speeds, ability to hack 'advanced' terminals that produce heavy vehciles (tanks and heavy buggies) and armor repairs.

is this from a true source or the insides of your ass?

Either way you still have the 15 minute wait afterwards (for bases anyway). And that's the critical time, you have the enemy by the balls and they know right where you are. They will hit you with everything they've got.

Spnsr this is what PSU says:

Hacking
Allows faster use of the REK for hacking of doors and control consoles, and also allows temporary use of enemy-held medical and advanced medical terminals.
Advanced Hacking
Like Hacking, but also allows the use of enemy-held equipment terminals, air vehicle terminals and ground vehicle terminals.
