Cheater reporting?

Is there any website related to the RO2 cheater reporting, which will be visited by large number of clans / server owners.. ?

for example, I know that PB, Valve or TW will never ban anyone via report based on some other player / clan / admin, but at least, if the clans and server owner can see the video I have made as spectator over one particular person so the community can ban him from the servers....

Thx in advance.
 
Ok, so it is really not some fake accusation, I have recorded this guy killing with a bolt through a thick smoke from 100 meters. He played as german, standing behind "D" house in commisars map, shooting through a smoke with a precise aim, and the smoke was from the right side(russian point of view) of "A" house.

Also this player, I have noticed that he use those hacks only when he got pwned from the opposite players,.. then in a short time, he makes some unbelivable shots and kills, then he goes "silent" again.

If someone here (server admins) want to see the video, I will upload it later today when I get back from work, and send you the link in the PM.
I belive that it is against the "name and shame policy" to post it over here.

I've shot guys through smoke before.
Sometimes you can make out a silhouette.
Sometime you just lead and guess.
But it happens very seldom, and I would say that I repeat this about once every 5 hours of playing time.

Can you PM a video? A youtube link perhaps?

It would be interesting to see exactly how this was done. Also, if someone is able to do this shot-after-shot, then you know you've got a hacker.

there's a bug with the smoke where if u are on a certain angle and position you can clearly see through the smoke.... he might not actually be cheating per se....

You are right but.
this is only when you are inside the smoke.

this was 100m from the smoke, and the killed ones were behind the full curtain.

Ok, the video is uploaded, I'm sending the PM's

Although like others said you can still make out silhouettes through thick smoke so it's possible he knew where to shoot. I use a similar farming method to kill baddies on spartanovka on the church wall when it's covered with smoke. I use up about 7-8 full magazines shooting at smoke at a concentrated area of the wall because I know they will be there.

However...this is the intenet so unfortunately he is guilty untill proven innocent. Always trust your instinct. If you think hes was cheating chances are he is cheating.

ok, well folks, if it's true that you can only see names when spectating, then there is definitely a case to answer here. The video shows multiple bolt-action rifle shots from ~75-100m directly through smoke and hitting targets without missed rounds between shots.

@2SaiNt4U, I would report this to the server you were playing on. And maybe in future, stick to servers with punkbuster enabled?

what you are looking for is pbbans.

servers can stream and essentially share a banlist together with pbbans. PB often only kicks someone off a server when using a wallhack or something, if that server runs pbbans they will be banned as well.

There were no bans for months and then an esp ban.

hmmm...

@Develepers

If this is against the rules, please delete my post, I'm sorry, won't happend again.

RED ORCHESTRA 2: player - TIFA[BiH] wallh4ck noob. - YouTube



Later today, I went to this server
[url]http://www.dodaj.rs/f/1I/Rd/1IIPkG7B/rogame-2012-01-16-21-19-.jpg[/URL]

He was playing there, in a just few minutes, I have also recorded some "nice skillz" on video.

It will be uploaded later this night.

It does look somewhat suspicious. I am guessing those red names wasn't visible to him, but only to you since you were spectating.

He could just have "tweaked" his video settings so smoke and shadows and stuff doesn't appear, as there has been a couple of threads about early on about some players doing. Of course that is as much cheating as using a hack in my book, but probably not anything bannable.

No way man!! This guy was also this night at one of the servers!!!

this is banned Steam ID from your post!

And guy with his this nickname was "spreading evil" with a german MG firing from the hip on 100 meters, also did some "wild stuff" with PPSh on long range..
I went to the opposite team, herad his swearing at me when I;ve told him how low is that what he is doing... Judgeing from the voice, he is not a kid.. but a very "sad" person.

Well, other movie which I will uplaod shows another thing, quick turn into the unseen target which is behing a solid cover.
He did that few times in a couple of minutes. It's uploading right now.


OK! so this time, I have entered the match just choosing his side, and didn't spawn, just went to see him playing.
(so there are no enemy names over head to make the situation confusing)

judge it by yourself...
just look at the gun quick turning int the point of unseen unheard targets.

yeah, I feel like there's some good aimhacks out there. Sure, there are some really good players...but some of the stuff I see is Uncanny, things like that, coming around a corner and immediately having your aim centered and shooting. I has one guy shoot me through the floor on the balcony in Command center (sorry now it's "prop house"). He said "it was just game mechanics (but how did he know i was directly above him?), and then proceeded to miss me with his mp-40 in a further engagement...but stuff like this makes me wonder if there are some subtle aimhacks and even more subtle hackers.
