Hacks and aimbots and coingenerators all over youtube
Am wondering - how prevalent are they? If they are in game, what is Gaijin doing to ban them?

I admit I have not spent any money yet but I will once I grind out 3rd tier or to buy that one special limited plane.

I REALLY do not want to compete vs. aimbots and hackers.

Team Killers killing at spawn is bad enough.

Not that I've ever seen, apart from one guy who seemed to have a lag switch

there isnt any hackers because the game isnt client side

Okay there are some things you need to know on the subject of hacking in war thunder.
Gaijin has actually thought through it really well and they found a very simple way to basicly ban all hackers before they even hack. They did this buy simply making the game Server Based instead of Client Based. Meaning that any form of mods (including hacks) would have to be installed on their server. Which works the way that if lets say i want to install aimbot. I would need to hack into gaijins servers to install it and by doing that i have given everyone my aimbot mod.
simple and working very well

there are hacks in every game on the computer, even some crappy no name free to play stuff that's you would question why anyone would even bother.

basically i don't think hacks in this are a big problem.
and like the other guy said, a lot of "hack" videos are just edited videos to sell a program that doesn't exist. it's just a phishing scam to steal accounts.

but real ones are out there for everything.
due to the 3d nature and turning of this game though, i don't really see how an aimbot would make someone 100% better. in FPS games it's just brutal, like headshots across a map every time. you can't really snipe like that in this game.

*shrug*

i wouldn't worry much

Those videos of Golden eagle generators are scams to give you a virus. They exist for any game with payed for currency.

any cheat you see on youtube or any other site like youtube is 100% pure scam
you will pay for something that doesn't work or that will get you banned

so don't worry about garbage like that because if a cheat actually does work its only a matter of time before gaijin blocks off the loop hole the cheat used to actually work

That is great to know. Thanks everyone for the info.

you know, you can make aimbots for WT. They wont help you though, although they will allow you to shoot very well, they will kill all your airspeed due to breaking the physics engine of the game.

Coin gens are always scams, been around since the dawn of the internet.
I never seen cheatrs in this game!

I've played this game over 800+ hours. Out of all that time I've only see one guy who was very questionable. He had a 10 kill per match average in arcade when i looked at his kills to death ratio stats. He also pilot sniped me every time with his first shots of his burst. So he was either cheating or just the best damn arcade player i've ever seen.

Besides that one time from what i've seen of hacks on youtube their aimbots are pretty ♥♥♥♥ and not much else can be hacked in with the way it's set up. The only real advantage a hacker can get in this game is esp which like any other game is hard to prevent.

Esp is not very useful in arcade since you can spot anyone normally pretty far away. The one advantage it gives them is hiding in clouds or spotting people in clouds. Which used to be useless but lately gaijin has added so much ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cloud cover and tweaked the sight mechanism to where you have to be like 2-3 miles normally to spot people instead of 3+ miles.

He could of just used Stealth Rounds so you wouldn't see tracers? You'd be surprised how often not seeing tracers will cause a person not to notice until it is too late. hehe

Whatever you do, please, for the sake of your PC and economic integrity, don't fall victim to these so called 'hacks'.. I know those who tried them, paying money for so called "Premium hacks" just to find that the hack really does nothing. It's been said, these game changing hacks don't and can't work, because the game isn't client side.

The closest to a Silver-Lion generator I can imagine is premium russian Catalina with a premium account, though a full lineup of Yer-2s is pretty good as well, depending on map :)
