Explaining why so many low skill players believe there's always so many cheaters in multiplayer
I virtually never really play multiplayer games anymore (never did much, anyway), I think the last online game I played was like half a year ago. I only started playing this casually because it was F2P, but it gets annoying hearing the same stupid misinformation ad nauseum from low skill players. This is just so people can see how massive player skill differences can be between the players you connect to with SBMM. You'll often find a lot of really trash players complaining about cheating, because they're just too unskilled to even really comprehend how they're getting beat so badly by much better players. If you're playing in EU/NA, then you're simply not encountering cheaters to the degree some of these fools are claiming (which is seemingly just about every match for them). I've noticed this trend in tons of games over the years, even when the player base is small enough that I would inevitably encounter them myself eventually if they existed to the degree getting falsely claimed. Instead, I'll play certain games like maybe 100+ hours & encounter maybe one or two cheaters....hell, I used to get accused of it constantly in Counter Strike by utter garbage players that are just completely useless, & know for a fact they're completely wrong; so I know 90% of it is just deluded scrubs that can't handle losing, & accepting they're just inferior. (Exceptions apply if you're in China or Russia with a much higher percentage of cheaters, but as an EU player; I've not encountered even a single cheater in this game yet, you'll also find a lot of other high skill EU players saying the exact same thing, so it's just completely laughable when people claim they encounter them nearly every match.

Anyway, at one I was playing at a proper professional level in the highest skill ceiling games like Quake Champions/Quake Live without even trying. A lot of the times I'd be playing these games after I came home after a night out getting pretty drunk.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1505097770 This is against a pro player that plays in professional tournaments for money that you can easily find online.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1257955308 23-1

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1257860526 37-5 I'd often enter the match & cause the other team to rage quit multiple times after they got completely destroyed ahaha

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1337983412 50-6

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1221783664 30-1 This is a different Arena FPS, & my first time playing the game....literally hadn't even played the game for 2mins yet! I got to play 2 matches before I got put into a skill rating so superior to everyone else that I was effectively barred from playing with any other player online. It went from like 30 seconds to find a game, to literally never being able to find a game after just 2 matches. It restricted high skill tier players from even being able to connect to players with lower skill tier ratings....which for me; was basically the entire online community at that point.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=491869474 I'd get accused of cheating in Counter Strike constantly. I never even found it to be a particularly skill based game. The skill ceiling is way lower, & the characters I felt moved way too slow & oversized to pose any real challenge.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=485195979 47-8

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=403181109 I used to play with pistols only, just so it could make it even a slight challenge. Even with the basic starter pistols, I'd still completely slaughter everyone like stupid pigs.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=403181109

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=454010187 Things like this would happen a lot where I'd 1v5 another team & instantly headshot one enemy straight after the other.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=486104197 Most screenshots I probably lost, but I'd rush enemy spawns & just delete the whole team in less than 1 minute. Naturally, I remember a lot of people would get really mad after getting utterly destroyed by some random teenager lol.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1611534672 Some Counter Strike clone. Barely even played the game, but again, instantly started destroying everone.

TL:DR version for idiots - 95% of the time it's not cheaters. You actually just suck at the game, so just accept it, & stop deluding yourself with pathetic excuses.

Are you here to show off your QC and CS2 stats?

Statistics don't lie. In almost every game with those K/D ratio, it's cheaters. It's cool you can flex, but you clearly aren't very intelligent when you can't look past your own skill when observing a problem.

didnt read this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, hacking in this game consists of a guy with chinese character name standing on top of a building lazering your team down with an akm from across the map

its not 'skilled gameplay' that looks like hacking, you're a buffoon for trying to compare the two

Dude, you are talking out your a--. This can be an issue, yes. But, currently in this game, at this time, the hackers are blatant, like sitting on a roof with a lewis gun dropping player after player from across the map.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3117319389

They were in my solo queue for ranked. I reported them every game.
I've seen people looking in the opposite direction as their bullets go behind them to hit me. Or when I managed to RPG one of these cheaters, I hid in one of the rooms in the vegas map (our team was 2nd place and just wanted to qualify), far away from the objective, come straight for me to kill me, he hunted down my whole team multiple times. It's insane how obvious some of these guys are and there are still ignorant misinformed andys echoing that it's a skill issue.

is what people are complaining about. This type of ♥♥♥♥. Shutting down the lobby to the point where everybody leaves. Firing through cover, through terrain, with perfect accuracy with unlimited range. I went and started a game in asia region to look for a hacker to post a new screenshot and this was the first game I found.

Why lie? Why cover for this ♥♥♥♥? You probably use a plugin also, lmao.

I met a cheater once or twice. one of them was using revolver and onetapping people from all possible distances. He ended up having a score of 31:1
so yeah, there's not that many cheaters in the game, however, they do exist and don't you even try to prove me wrong on that one

wasn't that guy using a revolver? :D

3 minute long game btw, just afk'd to watch what happened. People join, leave, and then backfill show up and die, then leave. It's cancer, and you're defending it like a clueless turd.

No he was using the akm, but it doesn't really matter, I've seen lewis, scar, sniper rifle, anything really be used for it. There is lots of this 'server shutdown' hacking, but even more 'playing legit' hacking where the people using the plugin zoom around playing the game 'like normal', but instagibbing whoever they come across, rather than just posting up on a tower and going crazy.

And this clown shows up with screenshots from counterstrike and quake to try and play devils advocate for chinese hackers. That's sad stuff.

The very next game I queue up puts me against the exact same guy again.

Same thing, these hackers just spend hours doing this in the game. How many dozens or hundreds of lobbies are they actively ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up? How common is it for me, an individual player, to find it multiple times in a row?

Get real. It's a problem, it's not imagined. This game WILL die from the mass hacking going on, and trash like you trying to run defense for the hackers will be complicit.

What's the point of this post? Why are you so desperately tryharding to defend this game? Literally when every single player is telling you that there are wallhacking cheaters, it's not even soft hacks like aimbot where the enemy is lasering but just straight up blatant wall hacks where you die 3 seconds after you spawn. And you absolute nerds are like "uhm ackshually they might just be better" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ weirdos
Balm Dec 18, 2023 @ 2:05pm 
Another game, joined a backfill, another hacker just getting started.

https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/g4z9cmermw7.png

This was 3 games in a row now, btw.
Dark Sun Gwyndolin Dec 18, 2023 @ 2:07pm 
While I personally haven't encountered any obvious cheaters, I've seen enough clips of guys with Chinese names machinegunning the entire lobby from a random balcony that there's no doubt they're a serious threat.
Balm Dec 18, 2023 @ 2:07pm 
In this case the name of the hacker is also some sort of social media profile where you can find him to buy the hack he is advertising.

The business model is to ruin the game for non hackers to the point where people buy hacks to rage hack in response.

And you're defending that as 'bad players misunderstanding the situation'. You clown.

https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/l7lxczeln37.png
here he goes, he's just "really good", "just like you" right?

Three games in a row. Not just quickplay, but tournament and ranked also. The hacking is so common on asia servers that the hackers go to other regions since they can't find a match without a fellow aimbotter, that's all (I suspect).

It's actually crazy that you're standing up for this ♥♥♥♥ lmao.
