Please stop the hacking

[Chaz]

Okay so by now some or most of you have experienced this.

Spy vs Merc.

Yup, so this is becoming insane. Mercs can see in the dark, shoot thru walls and instantly find you from a long distance and kill you with one bullet.

Mercs can also climb into areas meant only for spies.

I've seen a merc crawl, and cloak.

I've emptied 3 entire clips into a merc, in the head and he ran right up to me and knifes me in the throat.

A new trend is after you respawn, apparently you respawn directly in the path of a merc bullet. Regardless of where you are.

During a private match some guy asked me to download a cheat engine and help him out. As I was taking the screenshot the host migrated to another server and I lost his text.

I was told there is a god mode in Splinter cell that allows you to cheat you way into wins instead of the old fashioned way. Good old fun and basic experience.

That's not even half of what I've been thru. I haven't even started on whay Spies do as roles are then reversed. Why is this allowed? Doesn't Uplay have some kind of detection for people using codes or a hack engine to cheat there way to a hollow victory.

Hey, I'm not perfect but consider myself pretty good and reached the max level the hard way. But if it makes you feel like a king to kill me 20 times in less then 2 minutes using your cheats then I'm just not going to play with you.

All this aside, since this game also opens on Steam why is it not Vac controlled?

If this is going to be allowed I say then we should all hack and cheat or be given the option to vote someone out of a session and even block them from rejoining.

Seriously some people just like to have fun and use real skills. SvM used to be great but I'm noticing more low level noobs school a bunch of level 56 players and a bunch of level 56 players detect you through solid walls from a full area away and snuff you out from that distance with one shot gun blast. Even knife you from underneath as they pass through the floor. It's just laughable how this is happening.

I've only seen one blatant hacker so far, and that was a speedhack.

[V-Man]

I've seen blatant wallhacking combined with spawnkilling and melee.
This is apparently a rampant enough hacking problem in the game that there are no less than three threads about it on the Steam discussion page, and that's never a good sign.

Unfortunately I believe a majority of players that experience this do not bother posting about it on the boards anywhere. I've been checking as many SC:B forums around the net and not nearly enough people document it.

For example if it's happening to me, and I play with 3 random team mates and it's multiple times I would expect those that I played with to post something up somewhere. Uplay, Steam, Ubisoft, Splinter Cell forums elsewhere. But no, so we will probably likely never see a control in place to prevent game hacking for super abilities.

I've just about had it with this really, there is one player constantly camping at spy area using an SMG.

The place is unreachable, this is getting out of hands, I think more players are going to copy cat this mor0n, and it will just get worse.

Also I doubt anything would be done to stop this from ubisoft side.
