How can i report all those cheaters?!

[DhaVhe]

FFS!

Nobody is doing anything, the game is plagged with cheaters and nobody cares. Really?!


If there is some way to report/ban those player please let me know.
Cheers.

The only thing that really would happen to those users you report is that they wouldn't be allowed to post on these forums. You'd still see them ingame.

Edit: Your only real option is to host your own game and kick anyone you suspect.

[Riggs]

You could join a coop group, they play only private games and kick/ban cheaters from the group.

Sounds neat but what about when there is nobody to play? I mean my friends are not always available to play PD2, that's the time when i join public rooms hoping to have some fun, but what i found is a bunch of cheaters... not funny.

Remember the days when i used to meet good players on every room...

Host your own game. Don't bother with reporting anyone with a 'cheater' tag because you'll just be wasting your time.

The only thing I could say to fight back mods is to get mods.
NGBTO is a good mod that can auto kick whoever you like to kick.

*insert eventual posts discussing how evil and toxic ngbto is even in the context of removing cheaters from your game*

NGBTO/VH
Lobby Player Info
Various HUD mods

Additional. The various mods listed above can also be used in anti cheating efforts. HUD mods can be used to monitor other player's usage of equipment, their ammuniton, and health statuses. Lobby player info is a another good mod to discern credible skillsets from actual XXV's to fakes. NGBTO/VH has a basic built in detector that will usually do a decent job in rooting out obvious dlc unlockers.

These mods aren't perfect but they sure are alot more useful than the current vanilla plus hud people are used to.

Cheating in public games is really poor sport as it's ruining others fun, but at least in this you can host and kick cheaters fast or you get a decent host you know and can trust to kick cheaters and trolls and they can do it for you. The trolls tend to stick in your mind but most players aren't like that.

[DhaVhe]

I'll take a look to those mods and i'll keep in mind all the advices.

It would be great to see Overkill doing something about this.

Thanks everyone for the answer

[Zombie Lugosi]

I wish that Overkill would disable achievements for anyone using cheat mods. It stinks working hard and doing them the right way, and then you see all these people who got them easy by cheating. Maybe they'll do something about it in Payday 3. Hopefully.

That's the effective way to deal with them. Otherwise you waste your time.

Why does it matter? Somewhere out there someone is cheating at solitare and I don't care. The fun is in your own personal skills and success. It doesn't change what you have managed to do and the skills you've developed. Ignore that stuff and enjoy your game. That's what matters. If they come into your server then you kick the trolls, obviously.

[Arrancar]

I was called cheater in my own game just coz I have XXV-100 lmao. Guy who called me cheater had XXV-100, all cheated achievs and around 200 hours playtime. I kicked his ass.

This is the mod you want. Before you join any game it will let you know a little bit about the host. Look for "cheater flags" like low playtime-really high difficulty, a lot of achievements in little playtime, VAC bans, high infamy-low playtime.

Hidden profiles, eh, up to you, they don't necessarily cheat, but maybe they don't want you to know they play My Little Pony or have TF2 golden pan or whatever to avoid scammers. That said, more often than not, they hid their profile so you can't do what you just wanted to do i.e. inspect their legitimacy.

Did they ever improve the loading speed of lobby inspect? Tried it awhile ago and it just felt like it took longer to use the mod than to jump room from room. It was also limited by the fact that it only scanned the host and not the rest of the players in the room.

In my experience I find more clients abusing cheating mods/dlc unlockers than I do hosts.

It's pretty much instant for me, so...I don't know. It sends query to steam, so if steam's lagging, because of sales or something (L4D2 for free says hello) it obviously gonna act slower or not at all.

Client cheating, you can do nothing about them - host has to install mods that autokick cheaters or manually do that; you can't inspect them before you join anything, because they don't broadcast anything until you join the game with them on.
