i am not saying that i can validate them, i say that they can be explained by bad game mechanism or server issues.
lots of people have been complaining about being killed when they are behind walls. cause of the way kill cam works it can show player who first downed you or did most damage to you and not actually the one who dealt the last shot. and then you see that player 100m behind 10 walls and you say WH. or it can be just latency/lag as server took time to process your kill when you were behind wall.
or when someone shoots through bush to kill youā¦ console player have aim assistance that locks on through bushes. or some other player can see your tracers and just spray the bush. or bot can just aimbot you.
Brah, im not saying bugs dont exist or the bots can have epic crazy runs. Im talking about consitent Real Life Player doing the same crazy AIMbot plays.
The fact that you cant validate that these people arent botting means that your whole statement is just a guess that you think they are not. You havent validated the claims so when you dont know something you probably shouldnt say you do.
i have been part of competitive fps scene in my younger years. and i know what is possible when player is just highly skilled. and nothing that i have seen so far ingame tells me that there are loads of cheaters ingame. unless they are masters of deception and hiding, it is almost impossible to stay unnoticed.
and with just rant on forum without any evidence i cant validate either way, but considering my ingame experience i can explain some of those āsuspiciousā kills.
Well i can say im thankful that there are not alot of cheaters in this game. I have only run into 2 cheaters in all my time with this game.
BUT, the spectate system is already in the game. When your team runs out of tickets you are forced into becoming a spectator for your team. Why not just give the players an option to atleast spectate their teammates throughout the match?
I for instance would be extremely interested to see the gameplay of my teammate who is getting a kill per second and all of them are headshots.
Just giving a personal point isnāt āgaslightingā, heart such thing first time today. life is not every single time about someone wants to do bad to you.
Am i missing something? like i understand that yea, i dont understand the thought process of the player who im spectating but if i see the guy tracking an enemy through the floor or the wall, i dont need to know what he is thinking. i just send a report and record the guy for further proof.
you see in other games that actually have servers you can spectate until a slot open up. But hey youve been playing competitive gaming for sooooo longā¦
most players will spectate non cheating player, just for their team to lose. for current game format where every (good) player is needed at point attacking/defending spectating is just bad. if there were longer times between respawns and you could spectate in between i am all for it.
but other games have different game formats. you actually have servers where you can join or leave as you will and you have game balanced so there are always about same number of players per team (at least on public). in this game you cant even join battle after 30-60 seconds from start. dont compare apples and oranges.
WOAH, man i didnt know that me joining a match after the 1st capture point is already taken was impossible. i was the hacker all along!
But no, if a player starts spectating just put a bot instead of him. He comes back from specating, delete the bot squad after it dies. The devs already consider bots = players cause you can easily get matches where u have 10 players vs 2 player and 8 bots.
sometimes it happens in first minute that first cap point is taken and people just quit after that. that is why you can join. i have seen first cap lost in time that i have gone to build rally pointā¦
This game is no different to any other online FPS, cheaters are not that unusual. Anyone who say they have seen only a few cheaters are either;
stupid
lying
cheating and gaslighting
more than one of the above
the latest cheat i have been seeing is a connection interruption that looks like a shoving effect when Iām flying a plane. I donāt believe in coincidences, as it happens more often when Iām in a steep dive to drop bombs.
there is also the general complete lack of hit detection as if the bullet never meets it target.
The real problem is developers want to keep their (and everybody elsesās) heads in the sand about cheating. So this thread will probably be deleted as soon as the mods find it.
So be sure to archive it it you see anything seminal.
The problem with observer mode is people will stream the video to other people who will use the info to cheat, if its done in real time.
At best it would have to be a significant delay until the info is not too tactically useful (perhaps after all players have moved from a certain area). So at best you might catch some one in game 5-10 minutes after that have started cheating.
Iām in a similar category to you, played for 2 decades and seen it all in terms of cheating, and jaded by the BS of script kiddies and their lies and the devs that accommodate them, for a slice of Mommyās credit card.
