Does WT have an aimbot problem?

[Achillezzz]

Reason I ask is that on many matches I get one-shot frequently typically always in the same spot. It doesn't matter if they are far away, or close. I had one fellow who hit exactly the same spot 3 shots in a row until my tank blew up at a range of 600m+.

So if WT doesn't have an aimbot problem I'm curious what type of anticheat protection do they use? Many games are using EAC. Maybe WTF should insitute something like that.

A group of Thunder League players were banned from the game, I believe permanently for use of cheats. Wether or not they're aim bots is not known.

Cheats do exist, but the belief that "everything is server side, so no hacks are possible" is still presented by Gaijin staff in general. Which is usually accurate, except in certian cases.

As long your under 900m peopel just use the rangefinder then has no issue pumping shot at the same spot over and over

[Sinclair]

It's not difficult to hit the same spot at those range with maxed + aced tankcrew. to be frank with that tankcrew setup I personally don't know a tank who doesn't do that.

It's not an aimbot. It's either A) People really familiar with their tank, B) Some combination of the above, and a really high velocity gun, or C) Both A, B, and use of a rangefinder.

With everything calculated serverside, there is no way to cheat without actively hacking the server at the same time, something that is extremely improbable, and has never happened before.

Well I thought there are client based aimbots that will auto move the cursor to preset locations (e.g., a location on a tank).

[kiro the avenger!]

it is possible to hack a server side game, it merely limits whats possible

aim bots are probably one of the major examples of things you can do- where you point your gun is on you entirely

kinda awkward to deny its possible to hack, when a clan recently got banned for hacking...

I just had a game where I was point blank shooting a hellcat with my t 34 and both of my 2 shots didn't register even though he was perpendicular. His shots registered and damaged my tank, luckily the game ended just before he could get the last crewmember.

I think you got a rare double ghost shell. It's happened to me only once, but it anoyed the hell out of me.

no

Yes, there are existing hacks for War Thunder. It's very uncommon though.

[Achillezzz]

WT should just add Easy Anti Cheat support or something similar. Afaik its not hard and it does eliminate a lot of the hackers (e.g. rust has far few hackers then it used to).

The developers mostly deny that cheating is an issue, and it likely isn't.

Adding anti cheat would also open a whole new can of worms, most likely with false positives, as well as breaking what little modding that is currently allowed.

cheat ≠ hack (≠ exploit) ...and this especially applies to games that do involve a server.

do War Thunder cheats exist ? most likely they do because in the end War Thunder is a software installed locally on the users PC thus 3rd party software can be used to either alter things in the client or take over controls etc (though some cheats may only work locally due to server sided checks - e.g. Golden Eagles cheat tools that lead players to believe they got more golden eagles than they actually do (on the server))

do War Thunder hacks exist ? highly unlikely since this would involve hacking of the servers as well. while this may not be impossible (still it's only a software ^^) it's way more difficult and the chance it of being detected is definitely higher.

there already is an anti cheat software in place.

though i guess there are different ways about how anti cheat systems work. some of them (like punkbuster for instance) kick, block and/or flag players right away when they detect a (possible) cheater while others gather informations of unusual behaviours / situations / data flows and forward those data to the game developers for further investigation.

i guess both methods got very specific advantages as well as disadvantages... and just as it is with viruses and anti virus softwares it's a cat-and-mouse game ^^

Achillezzz Yep he have ... When you know where to dowload it . cause have lot of scam . but yes have the aimbot script but you have paid to have and using it inside the server . i see all that on twitch and is working . he did live and twitch did shut down his channel lol
