The reason our groups take our shoes off when in squad/duo is so we can distinguish out footsteps from enemies, it does work...until you have an enemy that's done the same

There is def a difference is sound or appears to be! And that's very logical. I will adopt that from now on

I had a 8x scope I looted before too that I switched to if needed but I got 1 nice shot with the 15x with a guy I couldn't see unless I was scoped in lol was 800 meters on a guy in a window

Lol, what's the bullet drop like at 800m? still negligible? Think my longest kill is about 200m with a M16A4 from memory

I counted the small squares on the map and used the compensator thing its page up and down i think by default, i changed it to up arrow and down arrow

Exists but I haven't seen it in game personally yet

I've only come across 2 blatant hackers in a couple hundred games.

Surprising really.

I died to a headshot punch when i was about 20' up in the air, still landing. Along with about 7 others. <no name> killed me (just a blank)

Same here. 2 possibly 3 that I'm certain of but I'm wondering is the desync issues 'masking' the hacks on the EU servers?? By that I mean are we blaming desync etc when actually someone is hacking. As @Boycey0211 said in a previous thread, 2 guys jumped out of a car 1 made beeline for him the other came straight in my building ran straight upstairs (I was down) looted and jumped out a balcony window. No sound of doors opening or gunshots and he was down. They then proceeded to run round my building as if scouting but they couldn't see me (even 3rd personing) I was covering both entry points with a double barrel so they were gonna get blasted coming. Strangely they bailed.

It could be actually. There's been a fair few times by all rights I should have killed someone to only have they spin and own me in a few milliseconds.

If hacking really is an issue there seems to be a lot of people who are hiding them rather than "rage hacking". Loads of suspect moments but then that's most likely me being **** rather than them hacking

Annoyingly one of the players advertising an ESP in a youtube vid is still playing daily, that winds me up.

Have also encountered my first hacker/s squad of 4 of us inside a toilet with a tiny tiny window at the top, you know the type. All 4 of us were getting headshotted by an SKS and finished off with an M416 from outside somewhere, blatently through the wall, despite all of us being prone. Was unreal.

Now as much as id like to blame de-sync or just good skill, this was literally defying thick stone walls.

Potentially could have been that rendering bug. Sometimes buildings don't render and you can see/shoot whoever is inside.

That's the issue I'm having at the moment if the game didn't have bugs then it'd be easy to call hacks when crap like that happens but afaik it could have been a bug.

Only recently got this and tried a few games, loving it so far - lots of potential.

ummmmm, 2 questions;

1) why the hell were 4 of you camped inside the toilet - hackers aside, if someone had opened the door they'd have smashed you all or you'd have killed each other returning fire!
2) how did all 4 of you manage to go prone on the floor??

Or a grenade lol, that said I've camped in the toilet before but only on solo iirc

Aye, solo I get. Done it often enough myself too. 4 people in one of the toilets all prone, I call shenanigans. Screen shot required!

I had this happen to me the other day. Was happening with quite a few buildings nearby. First time I've had it in about 270 hours and was fine the next game.

Bah I can't embed it from phone
