am i just bad?

[TheBlackParade]

im not hating or trying to start anything. but im just wondering. is there a trick to easy head shots, no matter what server i join, it seems i always get head shotted even when i get a helmet and so on. not really mad or anything, just wondering.

Tbh, it's because the game is full of people using wallhacks, inf ammo and the likes.

Just get used to it and hope for a good lobby, since the developer has made his stance on anti cheat and the like very clear. Anyway enjoy the game and remember no one is a hacker, everybody is just really good at the game to the point of being able to see in the future.

Main trick is to use virtual stock... and a lot of practice, many players including me have hundreds of hours in pavlov, it takes time.

And Dam can you stop spreading lies, you have 5 or so hours in pavlov, of course you might think everyone else is hacking but in reality you just don't know how to play... yet.

Don't listen to Dam, he is a joke with less than 6 hour gameplay. Yeah bro, there's a lot of skilled players with lot of playtime (and that's why they're skilled). There is no trick unless training. When u get used to how the guns works, recoil and everything you also will get a lot of headshots, just keep practicing. In the begining I used to play a lot of DM/TDM matches, so you get used with the guns and quick reflexes.

Also, even though boring, play a smaller map with just bots, this is how I did it once I got the feel jumped into a live game and got owned but not as bad and now it’s a blast.

[TheBlackParade]

yeah i know better then to trust low hour players (i have low hours myself) was just wondering though. i mainly play snd

[Hornbach Loungeset]

5.5 hours in a VR game is not sufficient? i've played multiple lobbies and all of them had at least 1 or 2 wall-hackers in there. I honestly don't care what you think either since your responses come down to Ooga and Booga. Especially that one child calling me a joke for critizing his favourite game.


And btw, i am playing with a real stock and i'm pretty good, people don't have to be amazing at the game and have 600 hours to acknowledge that this game has a cheater problem. Also, funny that no one defended the no-anti cheat-thing :) but that would be uncomfortable topic, wouldn't it?

Anyway, throw tantrums and call me names, that won't undo the Negative review i gave it just now out of spite (but for R-bombing accusation sake) i'll call it a fair negative review out of previous experiences.


See you all in game :)

the way you talk you are a joke. i get a very good k/d ratio in most dm and tdm games but as soon as i play against some one who has hundreds of hours of play time i get smashed.

you dont even have a clue what you are talking about

That's just a lie. The game has anti cheat and reported cheaters are banned.

Indeed! WAY too many folk crying HACKER & CHEATER and I believe that many would relate to console players blaming their own failures on faulty controllers or game mechanics.

That being said, pay very close attention to how much sound you generate since EVERY noise you make reveals details about your location in space. Pavlov doesn't do too well with differentiating up or down, but sound most certainly propagates 360 through EVERYTHING. Every shot, running,fast walking, reloading, heavy mouth-breathing, ANY talking will give away your location and this accounts for 99.999% of the "Wall Hacks" claims out there.

Pavlov is more often than not a fast paced game, so don't worry about going for head shots; go chest, neck & head. With Pavlov being a fast paced game, make sure that you're not in a lobby with a high ping, and in game try to keep out or look for other lobbies if your ping is 130+; really anything over 100 is too much. High ping is going to have a huge impact on landing hits and reload mechanics, best to keep it as low as possible.

Get to know the most common maps rather than just joining whatever's available at the moment. Get to know what surfaces can be fired through in which maps. Get to know the maps so well that you apply only minimal effort and focus on movement and rather focus on acquiring & ranking targets. Line up multiple targets into a close field to maximize kill rates; that said, don't bunch up!

Some people like real stocks or the virtual stock option, but I recommend doing what feels right for you. When you re-spawn be ready to fight, don't be like one o`clock half struck. That said, no body likes a spawn killer so best be a killer spawn!

this was very chad lol

[EchoSixBam]

This might just be me, and i'm new to the game, but when I figured out I could switch to single fire in some guns it made a big difference. Virtual stock is really good but I like the freedom to flail around like a mad man when I turn a corner and unexpectedly run into someone.

that really isnt true i just people that have practiced this game for a while and most hacks dont even work for this game so its just people that know the sound of footsteps and know how to aim ive never met a hacker and i have 900 hours

[ezRocket]

actual cheaters are incredibly rare

its just practice my guy. I have 330+ hours and still am not that good LOL. Every now and again a synapse in my brain will click and i'll pull off multi kills and long range head shots.

I recommend playing in non SND/TDM lobbies to practice your aim. In my experience, SND/TDM tend to be the "sweatiest" lobbies so you're gonna find yourself getting killed way more often than a more casual mode.

Just hop in the shooting range and work on headshots. Start with pistols and work your way up from there. It'll take time, but it helps you get used to it a lot better than getting good off of public matches alone.
