I was approaching the first spawn of the EMP bomb and player named ‘brane1’ was flying in opposite me. I saw him fly what looked top speed into it and grab it without delay. I was the first one on my team to get close enough to it so I know he couldn’t have beat me that far to it
sometime in the logs at 10:35:32:79 and 10:35:52:954
I think I was the first to die
Then brane1 turned around and ran way behind his own bases

No i warped near the bomb and timer went all the way.
really? that is possible but it sure looked fishy to us
I’ve flown against brane1 quite a few times over the past days. I would personally say there was nothing dodgy about anything I’ve seen so far.
Decent player, nice chap.
Bear in mind that depending what angle you are witnessing him from, you might be experiencing an optical illusion. He will have been there slightly longer than it looks to you, based on how well he aimed his warp. In the final moments of the warp he’s already in range of the bomb - but to you he’s still warping/finishing the warp.
Bomb can be picked from some 300m range so i aim my warp a little right or left from the bomb.When i get to the bomb i make an U turn around bomb so when i pick it up i am already on my way back.
What you see there is exquisite flying skills.
But make no mistake, there ARE situations in which the bomb IS, indeed picked up instantly and those pilots are abusing some bug they found…
I have learned that this way you can pick bomb and survive long enough to get to your teammates, you can even drop mines and and get some MAKE WAY medals . Wish all my flying skills are exquisite …but noo00000
