all thoughout my online gaming career ive came across lots of people who blatently aimbot in servers and ruin the fun of others... this "scurge" is multiplatform.. countrstrike/ut etc... etc..

does anyone else come across them or is it just me.. what are they all about?? :confused:
 
i only ever play wolfenstein enemy territory which is probably one of the most hacked games there is, have come across quite a few, infact found out recently an old clanmate was caught hacking, lost all respect for the guy
 
I've seen 2 speedhackers and one aimbotter in UT2004.
And played against someone on BF2 who I could have sworn was hacking.... no proof there though
 
Only ever actually had hard evidence on one person in CSS.

I was playing with Photoshop with some ideas, I get a xfire message explaining the situation.

Needless to say I had a good laugh watching a mixture of wall hacks and aimbot in CSS. He didn't even try and hide the fact he was doing it. After the laughter died I kicked him. Shame he didn't return. :(
 
Seen a few in the (nearly) 10 years I've been playing Quake on-line. Unfortunately, one was a clan-mate and his actions cost us dearly.

The worst part of the whole bot issue is the sense of paranoia it creates. Pull off one good shot and you must be a bot. I bet (in Quake, at least) out of all the cries of "bot!" there have been it has actually been a bot only a fraction of 1% of the time.
 
Ive seen quite a few people blatantly using aimbots or wallhacks in CSS. People often are too quick to assume though, so i make sure im 100% sure when its my turn to shout the odd 'CHEATER!' every now and then.
 
we get the odd one on our clan public. speedhacks and aimbotters, not even subtle aim botters (spray with famas then 2 bullets later the crossaims jump to the enemys head)

even possibly seen them in a pcw too, against an ED clan. the guy was picing the D2 double doors way to well, so i started to test him. stopping before the gap and waiting to see if he him me, which he did. showed it to my mate who was laughing his ass off down team speak as we watched the demo

tbh i often call people hackers in my mind, but save it for the blatent ones before i start saying anything. we get some very skilled players on our server so its best to keep shtum (if thats a word)

My opinion is that there is a lot less cheaters than people wish to believe, often it just a matter of self denial, if person A too often gets killed by lucky shots then person B must be a cheat etc.

In CSS I’ve come across only a few cheats, if you want to find a game full of cheats go and play UT'99 its unreal :P (pun intended :P)

You know its funny you say this because i used to play ET at a very high level for a number of years and i never really thought people were cheating, a lot of people had there tweaky tweaky config but i never thought anyone had aimbot, But it got me thinking the other day about one of the players in my clan that was so amazing sometimes he used to be able to take out there whole team (on public servers) and everyone always used to think he was really amazing.. I wonder if he was a cheater too..

Infact thinking back, if i knew there were hacks for ET i would have been crying 'CHEATER' a lot more :p
 
Also i was saying to my bro last night that in the 255 hours on bf2 we have blatently played againest aimbot/wallhackers but because we own them we didnt realise..

I dont have a problem with people aimboting in bf2 because it doesnt matter too much with me, if i can aim at there head aswell and kill them faster it dont matter if he has a prog thats aimed at my head, my hand is almost as fast.. The only problem i have with people is that FACT that its 5 shots to armor 4 shots to non armor for kills, and on a regurar basis putting 9 headshots on people and not even getting kill damage assists! Iv stood infront of people lying on the floor and its taken me 20 bullets on his armor to kill him.. Now thats bull..

(bf2 has to be the most inaccurate game iv ever played btw) oh wait no thats 2142
 
Used to be much worse when i played CS 1.3-1.6.

Since then most of the hacks are less obvious, so i usually put it down to someone else just being better or luckier than me. I dont see as many obvious hacks nowadays.

From experience the guys who do it were about 12-15 and had to prove themselves.
 
They cheat because it makes it more fun for them, because without cheats they are rubbish and lose all the time = no fun. When they are cheating they are winning so they dont care that they are annoying people or being lame, they just want to win. (by any means)

i get more annoyed at noobs than cheaters..
