Fair points, but like I said - 700+ hours of RO1.

Trust me, I know how to spot a cheater from someone that's just good.

Good is someone covering an area and shooting me at 250 meters with a bolt action twice or 3 times in a row.
Cheating is someone shooting me and 4 of my buddies through smoke, all in the head when he can't even see us...in about 6 seconds...with a bolt action.

Agree wasn't meant for any RO vets the people who has spent the time in the trenches knows whats possible and whats cheating.Was more directed to the new guys and the fact the just because someone who has a high score with a bolt or w/e doesn't mean their cheating.

And the server admins will know who has skill and who is cheating.

Yes those wonderful server admins aged 13 who kick anyone who gets a couple of head shots in a row. I've been kicked so many times in my time playing FPS online for simply killing the admin too many times or otherwise getting some nice kills.

If you think VAC and PB will stop cheaters than you either don't know much about cheating or you underestimate the cheaters. I'm telling you now it will be down to hard working admins on good servers that will stop the cheats.

PB+VAC will catch a ton of them, streams such as pbbans work well also.
That in combination with hard working admins will be the solution.

Yup I got booted in Darkest hour (not going to name the server) a few times for doing good..Just depends on the server the ones I played in RO1 was cool about this kinda thing and I play the same servers in RO2 well same owners.That's what I love about RO community over time they are usually mature serious gamers.Until the new wears off of RO2 they will be all kinds best to find a good mature server and stick with them...or a few anyway

You just was on the wrong server who the hell gives a 13 year old admin anyway lol.

Servers with 24/7 admins are the best protection, cheaters can't really do anything there. It's also pretty obvious when someone's using a hack.

Oh, you mean the anti-cheat testers? ;)
In most games the cheating is the worst soon after release. Hopefully because of this beta the RO2 developers can deal with most cheats before release.

Unfortunately there are cheats in RO2 and some cheaters are even bloody obvious while using them.

Aimbots:
one guy always got kills with his PPSH while running and strafing at full speed.. before anyone could even get a shot off at him they were all dead, over and over again.

Wallhacks:
People shoot through (through, not from) buildings before the bullet hits you.. with smoke between you and them. Also machineguns are used with wallhacks to take out entire teams from inside houses.. through the walls (not shooting randomly also hitting where there arent people).

If outside the shooting often starts just before you round that corner, like they see you coming (and they do).
Have seen guys with 50 kills when the second highest scorer was at 8 kills (early in the round). :mad:

When confronted those guys almost always use the phrase : "It

With over 700 hours logged on the original Red Orchestra I didn't notice a single cheater

All PC games have cheaters and hacks, the fact that you didn't notice any in over 700 hrs of RO doesn't say much for your observation abilities.

If there were cheaters in RO 1 then their cheat tools must of been pretty crappy, because I never noticed anyone doing superhuman shots.

Why would they go for the obvious. That would get them banned, they only go for the superobvious way if they know they don't get banned.
They would rather go for hacks that aren't that obvious.

You can set punkbuster to autmatically send screenshots afaik
Doesn't work.

I assume the people getting "spotted" cheating are using the only big time multihack out now, and that hack engine have measures so screenshotting doesn't work.

In a nut shell, yes there's cheats out now, multihack with all the bells and whistles.

Enjoy.

P.S. despite what you might think Punkbuster and VAC doesn't work against any of the advanced paying hacks.
