You will read about every excuse in the next few minutes but facts as they are PGI has done nothing about it since the original ban wave a long long time ago. They need numbers so if it includes scumbags its ok with them. Main reason why any thread mentioning it is quickly purged.

That is not true, PGI is, on a continuous basis banning people "when they have enough evidence" to ban them for cheating. Error code 76 FTW!

[Deathlike]

For the sake of argument... the OP has abandoned the thread... for now.

TL:DR people think they are better than they are, and so anyone that is better must be cheating.

I can't do it, so they clearly shouldn't be either.


^^ this is always the majority of hackusation posts/threads.

Trust me I used to be a mod here ffs, I've seen too much to know that this is just another frustration post.

Frustration Complex never fails to avail me.

So the other guys jumping in because they are frustrated about their Bad performance in a videogame?

Now if you have footage of people consistently CTing lights that are evading properly without spreading damage all over first then we can talk aim assist.

Actually it is against the CoC to talk about that. Support is the proper group to receive such complaints and evidence.

[Scout Derek]

10 Million C-Bills says this happened to OP by one of the top 50 players...

*sigh*

That and/or the fact that they don't like PGI because they don't listen to them (or think that is), or have had bad experiences with PGI so they are trying to slam them

It's not always as simple as that.

If you don't know what "good" looks like, then everything relative to that changes your opinion.

For instance... say you think "your frankenmech" build is great... but when a friend tells you "this is a bad build" and shows you how to build a better mech... then your understanding of what a good build changes.

You could apply this to real life... but the point is that if you don't have any idea what "good" is relative to a specific thing... whether it is aiming in this game or whatever you can come up with... then it's very hard for a person to comprehend or translate the necessary skills/requirements into getting better at that specific thing.

Ironically, this could apply to many facets of the development of this game (not that anyone seems to notice).

Yep, already contacted Tina and the others to take care of this garbage soon.

And this will be another flipnote in the annals of Hackusations.

A cheats goal is to make players quit or get banned, which ever shuts the game down quickest. Getting them frustrated is part of that.

Guys cheating have other goals to. Think about it a bit.

I'm done in this topic for now. Good luck to any legit players.

Death, lets be honest.

Is there any rationality to accuse all top 50 players of each bracket to be hackers? is there? No? thought so.

Not to mention I've played with some of these people in those boards....

they don't cheat. they're really good players.

Why is it white knighting if I know players who got banned after the ban wave?
Just tell me.

It's the Donald Trump method of accusation.

Or is it the Rudy Giuliani method?

Sigh! I can't tell anymore!

Not going to elaborate on this, but tbh, like I told Deathlike,

All rationalization goes out the window when you accuse hundreds of players of cheating because they're good.

It's been the preferred method of accusation for as long as I can remember. Attributing it to anyone in particular is as ridiculous as the OP's assertions in this case.

Huh?! Really?!

This sounds like an accusation to me:

Chances are PGI could find many cheaters by checking the white knights in this thread. Just like last time.

and a wide brush at that.

While I have not played this particular game for very long, I do not see that an aimbot would really be of enough use to justify the risk given the very low TTK compared to regular FPS games. Excessive headshots would get noticed quickly. Aside from headshots, it would be practically useless at close range, and only whittling away at long range.

There are probably some people using aimbots in MWO, but I cannot imagine that it is a large segment of any leaderboard (or very many people at all). It makes more sense for an aimbot user to play CoD, Battlefield, or Doom.

thats not the goal of a cheater LOL, do you think the High leage pros in CS were cheatign because of that reason?

seriously, some people just want to be good, or the best and use cheats to get better or the edge. Those "closets" just wanna be pretenting to be good players or better than soem specific others while their skills can't deliver. Then a geo is suddenly butthurt and "invests some money" into hacks but hurt cream.

people who want to make others quite are often just ragehackers not hiding anything,

[Gas Guzzler]

Hahahah

Yeah right, we are all cheating.

I think what happened is, they loosened up the PSR tier matching system (we have seen Tier 4s with Tier 1s so they must have done that) so you finally got a taste of what some better players can do. No more free spread damage for you!
