Hackers on Crossfire

I am so frustrated at people hacking on Crossfire - especially between Christmas and New Year when there were hundreds!

The hacks that I know of are...

The Aim Bot
Chamming
One Hit Kill
Speed Hack

But what I would like to know, is the characteristics of each one - i.e. what to look for to be sure. Speed Hack is obvious, but it's annoying when people get head shots every single time or worst still - on ghost mode, know exactly where you are when you're hiding in a dark place, camping, look and shoot once in the head.

Then they start saying 'skills noob', which really gets my blood boiling because they clearly don't have any!

I accept there are pros out there, but surely even the pros of pros can't do some of the things that hackers do.

Also does anyone ever get banned and if so how? Surely people just make another account?
 
whats crossfire ?

nevermind my google skills have proved God like.

its free to play you should expect nothing less

Google 'Z8 Crossfire' and you'll find it. Look on YouTube for in-game videos (annoyingly there are a load of hackers who post their hacking antics on there too :@)
 
Hmmm, there was a nice period for about a month when there was no hackers, but now there are some really flamboyant hacks!

In the past week, and all of a sudden there are:

- People who can run through walls
- Box glitches
- The usual aimbots
- 360 aimbots
- Lag hack
- One hit kills (particularly annoying on mutation mode)

.. I think it's rather sad that people hack (and have the audacity to stick it up on Youtube!)
 
Ugrh, the hackers are back on Crossfire.

Speed hacks and aimbots that don't make the avatar spin.

Has anyone actually tried using a hack and have subsequently been banned? I'm tempted to install a hack to give these people a good lesson.
 
hehe , hackers are morons but just rise above them.

Completely agree, but frustrating nevertheless. Last night played a session of Crossfire and found a new tactic that seems to clamp down hackers.

a) I become the room host.
b) I enforce a rule whereby if you have a hacker on your team, you must try kicking them. If you don't, at the end of the match, I will kick everybody on that team that didn't try kicking them.

After about 4 rounds, you find that hackers can't enter the room, real players remain and any hackers entering are immediately kicked.

I'll tell you what though - I have a new bug bear.

Players who have rubbish guns, hide, wait until you die and steal your gun!!!
 
^^ Problem with that, I find a lot of people can't tell the difference between a hacker and a good player (both ways, some will defend an obvious hacker and some will call an obviously very good player a hacker).

I know what you mean. I'm generally referring to speed hackers and wallers - they're way too obvious. I think my approach is to deter people from defending hackers.

Yet another bug bear!!!

I don't know if you've played Crossfire recently, but Z8 has banned the words..

'hack', 'hacker' and 'noob'!!! Seriously - I can understand why swear words might be removed, but these words - seriously!?
 
ouch, kinda like the approach some developers have taken, where they've removed kill cams that obviously show people hacking due to being unable to combat the hacking directly :( in the hope people will stop complaining!

I know - it is pathetic.

On Crossfire, they have a thing where you can save the replay of the match to report hackers - but the reporting process is so long-winded - i.e. save the replay, go to the online form, upload it and fill out a few details.

It does work and some people do get banned.

Nevertheless, overly annoying.
