origin of species
« on: June 27, 2008, 03:26:53 PM »
yea, frozen armor/health bar is suspicious, but that can be caused by lag, desync etc
other cheaters' 'tricks' can be also not what they look like.

i summarized some thoughts about how to differ cheater from normal players

1. names.  cheaters have no chance to become regular players, to make some in-game friends, to build some reputation. so they dont bother picking them proper nicknames.
very often their names look like: ertuj457, 11111111111111, asasasasdas, coaryionpnmz and other pointless letters/digits sets. ofc there are lots of exceptions, but that takes place.

2. behavoir. after getting some skills ppl realise how to move to avoid lead rain around..but sometimes u may see a person who stays still while few other players shoot him. even the newbest of all newbs understands that he has to be fast and unpredictable to avoid bullets. or at least run away...but cheater with his hh's really wont care. so they are always 'cool as shaolin monks'  ;D

3. the game routes. as i noticed, cheaters usually choose some crowded place (ship, pd etc) and hang around there, unless they fly in their batmobiles :O. so if the same person is at the same place all the time, and never inside feeding points or ammus, maybe its cheater?

4.no time to talk.cheaters usually dont chat at all, or put in smth in unknown languages and using exotic symbols. the 1st cheater who chatted in english i met today (poor show anyway)

5.turning it on/off. some of them turn on cheats only in case of death threat - person who was running and jumping and loosing hp before, suddenly stops for a second (haxx-on) and becomes impossible to hit. theres definitely cheat-smell around

thats what i dug for now..gotta continue this 'research' ;)

how do u determine that the person was cheater?

One great thing to deistringish Cheaters from synch issues is a gd trick :)

-SO ur there shooting st amoeone who doesnt lose hp - eiter get into a building/car and out again - this should solve sync issues - after this if the person doesnt lose health normally a hh, if they DO lose haelth it was probably desynch

Thats about the only other way i try to odistingsh cheaters  tbh i thought there was a topic on this (a sticky) which ive read which is wat i read to try ad distinigh cheaters/chiters

Speacking of this and slightly off topic - Once a person said "ACE has perfect aim = cheater"!!!! cus i shot them off their bike LOL

Nice moo - V.Nice :)

Whenever I see someone with good guns (M4, shotguns, uzis, etc.) and I don't know them, I get warning bells in my head. I do /stats on them, and if their account has only been on for 1-5 minutes, I get really suspicious. Then in addition to this if they don't lose health, I report them right away. The guns issue makes it more probable that they're a cheater than that it's just a simple desync issue.

Or "/getid RUS" because a lot of people with that tag cheat. lol

This is what I do if I come across a player I can't harm. If you can't damage a player, he/she is either cheating or you are desynced to him/her. So next time you come across a player like this, try and fight them with your fists.You will disrupt the players shooting and cause the players character to move back. So if you can move the player back when hitting them, your not desynced and they are probably hacking if no damage is recieved, if you cant, you are desynced, because your not exactly hitting on there screen because of desync. It can be hard to try and punch a player if they are running about madly though, but its still possible if, lets say there standing still or not moving much.Or you can try and park on them.
