Playing online is supposed to be fun, sometimes it is. But there seems to be a significant amount of cheating happening.
I am not the best player there is, but I can at leat move well and get a certain amount of frags.
It has recently come to my attention that there is just more than Aimbots out there.
Stuff like --Dodge bots
binding keys-shock rifle(you have seen the impossible)
speed cheats
Radar--knowing where the enemy is--
Health cheats....
etc.....
I read the thread for newcomers it had something to do about cheating, but it wasn't nearly extensive enough. I want at least to know what the heck I am up against.
Here are ways that I determine if someone "could" be cheating.
A very hig rate of headshots, coupled with headshots when normally they would not know you were somewhere hiding(coming back as a spectator isn't always possible)..
No "Random Feeling" the enemy always has a beat on you and/ can seem to always stay out your way whilst finding you ambushing you etc. EVERY TIME.
The lack of being able to kill the other opponent. Only so much can be said of skill. For instance even the greatest of Hockey teams or even sports teams loose to the worst of teams on a givin night, that is the human element.
When the "enemy" always gets you. always in a very heated fast uncontrolled battle always moves out of the way never moves the wrong way when everything is happening extremly fast, then something is wrong.
Even the best can be at least killed at times and even if they have a much higher ratio--it shows the human element.
Even the best atheletes make mistakes in split second circumstances, or even in pressured ones.
Anyone familar with "Soccer" knows that, the penalty kick can be missed totally by the most skilled of players.
It is true that there is a great many skilled players out there, ones who can "own" someone in the battle, but the lack of that human element is what tipps off something is wrong.
Also the lack of your weapons doing the damage that normally would be seen. they seems to endure the strongest of weapons more than they should, even area weapons that normally don't need "perfect" aim.
And this is the shame, most skilled players now always will have the "air" of suspicion and that is not fair -the people who do this as a hobby and who have put some time in.
BTW to the really skilled ones out there--Good stuff--! I have seen some really fine players and I know they were just using plain skill. Really impressive.
I don't know what the answers are , I personally think they should have servers dedicated to the cheaters, so that if the "itch" is there to play them then so be it, but really we should have enough clean servers out there for everyone to just have fun. I don't mind once in awhile playing bots it helps me get better but really I don't like playing them when an honest battle is happening.
I love to play, although I don't have much time as I am busy, and my mouse has been giving me real problems, but if anyone plays or has a clean server I would love to be able to just join in every once in awhile, if you have a web-site let me know.
As I mentioned I don't have a heck of a lot of time but i do find time to play every once in awile so let me know.
