[quote=“Szakalot;187206”]@Black if someone uses unnoticable hacks, than its hardly an issue for me. im not saying its ok (ban the twats), but i dont care, it doesnt affect my experience. an aimbot thats worse than a good player - why would i care?
are all those hacks you notice on minlvl servers?[/quote]
I’m not asking players to care about hackers, I’m just asking players to stop telling others “no one is hacking, you are just bad.” and denying the existence of hackers.
[quote=“Watsyurdeal;187268”][quote=“Black;187147”]For all those saying “I haven’t “seen” any hackers” please understand that just because you don’t “see”(a.k.a. notice) them doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
It’s kind of hard to prove someone is using wall hacks.
As for aimbotting, that’s a different issue because hackers aren’t stupid. Nowadays aimbotters will just aim for the chest as oppose to the head to mimic regular aim.
It’s quite easy to find out if someone is aimbotting. The easiest way is to see if every bullet they shoot at you hits you which is either due to extreme luck, you not moving(obviously), or aimbot. Even the pros can’t land EVERY hit on you.[/quote]
Truth is unless you actually watch someone play, you won’t be able to tell if someone is toggling or whatever. Only the blatantly obvious hackers are easy to spot, 100% accuracy, aimbot, etc.
If someone is smart and is hiding it well, it’s really hard to tell. Trigger bots and wall hacks especially, you have to watch them play carefully to see if they’re getting lucky, maybe they have acute game sense, or maybe they really are wall hacking, cause there’s no reason the other player should have lost to them. Competitive Counter Strike is the perfect example, then again I suck at that game so maybe there’s some secret to it beyond just guessing what spot the enemy is likely to hit you from. Like some sort of game of hide and seek, with guns.
This is stuff that can’t be easily called hacks, which is why often I just don’t listen to people when they make accusations. If it’s blatant, then yea, I’ll call it out. But I’ve been called a hacker numerous times by new players, as I am sure plenty of other people here have as well after 6 months or more of playing this game for, let’s say about 10 hours a week.
So, yea, you can understand why when I see these posts at least 2 to 3 times a week, hear it at least once or twice a week when I play from people who JUST started playing, that I basically just assume it’s not true. Crying Wolf constantly just makes it harder for people to believe it when one actually shows up.[/quote]
Yes I’m aware that newer players will constantly assume hacks when they play up against someone who is really good. However as for experienced players, spotting a hacker is not something that is difficult.
You can never 100% tell someone is hacking, but you can make inferences. I’ve played fps for a long time now and I can tell almost instantly if someone is hacking when they shoot at me. I don’t just jump to conclusions.
I remember just now of recently I was in a server in which a guy killed me way to fast and all his bullets seem to hit me. I was like ok, there is something suspicious about this guy. The next time we got into a shoot out I jumped in the air and noticed all of his bullets STILL hit me. Sure enough before I can accuse him of hacking other players started accusing him and spectated him finding out he really was hacking.
Again, not that hard.
