BF2S Forums The Reality of Hacks

good lord... what possesses noobs like that to make those hacks?  with all the time they spend making them they could have been playing and getting better, and then they could own people without bright blue and red people running around with name and health written on them, map hacks, and autoaim...

fucking tools.

I've never come across a single hacker in this game. Well, maybe once. I was killed by enemy arty twice in one minute once.

I've hardly ever encountered cheaters when playing bf2, luckily enough. When I meet one, I'll make sure to report him to EA. These lame asses deserve nothing less.

To do that though means contacting a few different companies for the information, the company hosting the blog which won't hand over the detials unless they can prove soemthign is being said or done wrong, the ISP company which won't just cut off or block their internet because they use hacks on a game and then the person will probably have a bitch over privacy laws.
While hacking is illegal, when it's done in games only to boost one's ability then the law can do very little because it isn't damaging other computers or servers, the FBI certainly aren't going to chase up "someone has been using hacks in an Internode server lets get him" quite frankly they have better thigns to do, so do the law in general.
EA are the only people who can really do anyhting more than a "slap on the wrist" and even then they don't have the authority to arrest and charge people, cut off thier BF2?

No problem they have about 15 other cracked CD keys they can use, they'll mask their login ISP.

Fact of the matter is, hackers are here to stay, it's reverse engineering, it pisses people off, in games the law won't do anyhting about it, they market for it grows and the onyl thing you can do is avoid it.

I'm gettign really sick and tired of reading threads saying "oh noes I've been hax0red!" or "the n00by hax0rs have ruined my fun".

Grow up, deal with it and aviod them, when someone hacks, I move server, there are 2000 fuckign servers to choose from all ranked and not all of them have hacks. Hackers feed off this shit people, they goto forums and laugh at the stupid crap you people put up about them.
This is what they want, they want to to badmouth and insult them, they want to get pissed because most of the time that's what they're aiming for.

I've seen this other field of hackers, where they talk and brag about thier work, don't have to look very hard to see that, I've also seen the bitchiness of genuine gamers whihc intenions are good just don't shut up about it and don't relise that their bitching only fuels it.
I'm a genuine gamer, the onyl time 've ever worked a hack was to see how it works. Simply put unless someone can scan everythign on everyone's computer without them telkling and banning anyone with a program on their "hax0rs list" but seeings that's illegal in itself it isn't goign to work.

so in short:

DON'T LIKE HACKERS RUINING YOUR FUN, SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GO SZOMEWHERE ELSE, THEY ENJOY THIS CRAP AND THEY HOPE FOR THIS CRAP MOST OF THE TIME!!

I was in a tank on mashtuur.  I'm sitting in between the mosque and the backyard.  Of course, I get hit with multiple anti-tank rockets all the way from the hotel.  I can tell they are coming from the hotel cuz that is where the smoke trails from.  Not one anti-tank missile was even close to missing me. Needless to say I moved up all the way to the wall at the mosque and dealth with those fools accordingly.  This was in a clan scrim so it is very possible they used hacks.  We still won one round on mashtuur so I felt pretty proud.  Also, they managed to hit stuff with the vodnik from just a little bit of a shorter distance for instant kills.  Also they managed to throw c4 across the road on sharqi from atop the building at the hotel to the south.  When I mean across the road, I mean all the away onto the sidewalk.  Try as you might you will never be able to throw it that far. 

Tell me what you guys think of my story, hack or just skill?

even with aimbot, no one is safe from a 2000 lb bomb

Don't you mean two 2000 lb bombs?

Its like gamers need a union. Boycotts and "strikes". What if every player stoped playing(yea right) for a month. Whould that shock EA into action?

In reality play on trusted servers or run your own.

I hadn't personally run into a hacker until tonight. I watched a sniper in close combat with his M24 out. 3 headshots while dolphin diving within a few seconds. If that isn't an aimbot, I don't know what is (I was on the same team, thus I'm not complaining because he killed me).

Thing about hackers... is that they can't play.  They don't squad up, they don't try and move away from enemy fire.... and they are easily spotted.  What it takes is people paying attention to the scores and how others are playing.  I've caught two hackers so far and they are now on the perma ban list from punkbuster.  I screen shot them, and punkbuster then tags their name for a screenshot when they are playing.  They then look at the screenshot.  Ever see your game sorta just glitchup for a second.. like a 1 second pause?  It's punkbuster sending your codes and a screenshot to their main server.

sounds like an awesome idea to me, wish they had done it.

I ran into a hacker yeasterday.
We were on Dragon Valley, and he was at the top-left US base. The UAV spotted him, but when I got there, I saw nothing, and I was killed.
This happened about 4-5 times. Then I played as sniper, and watched the spot, where the UAV spotted this guy.
When a friendly came near, I saw the fire (dont know how it is called: the fire coming out of the barrel of the gun after shooting) coming out of the wall!!!!!
I tried to report him to an admin, but sadly, no response at all...
Anyway I've checked this guy's stats, but there was nothing suspicious...
His name was Ugglyone.

I like you - am somewhat confused - when weird shit like this happens - but I am not always certain about it - that it is a hack?

Is it a glitch or hack? OR me not really paying attention? I have experienced the multiple arty multiple supply box (or 2nd commander) hack - spawn hacks - and no fog hacks. Maybe an accuracy hack once or twice. . .

BUT,
If I've been killed by someone with a wall hack - I would not know this? There behavior isn't any different than when a UAV is my posistion (they know where I am and where my gun is aiming).

But the other day I was shot through a wall - was it hack? At first I am like cheater-hacker then I stopped venting - NOW I don't think so. . . I have shot people hiding behind a wall (LOL) - I could see his feet poking through the wall so I shot at his feet he died. That is a game glitch.

I am certain there are multiple forms of hacks out there - BUT bad-play overwhelms the issue of hackers.

Even if a whopping 10% bother to get hacks - I ownly get owned by great players - not hackers. A couple really good-great squads who communicate with their commander can dominate a rounds flow.
