Can you tell when someone is using anti recoil? what signs?

I play on console so the Cronus anti recoil pandemic is really all i have to worry about when it comes to cheating. What am getting at though is can you feel it when someone has anti recoil? 

This example isn't the first because I've felt like this many times. from distance, and i peek out and the guy is using a carbine and my shields drop instantly and am like "woah that's some pressure" And i don't want to sit and go "this guy is cheating" but it was every time i moved and even slid from cover to cover. Does anyone else know the tell signs of cronus? is there anything other than just lazer accuracy?

  • @NACHONOV0It’s difficult to determine whether someone is ACTUALLY using anti-recoil macros.

    Rapid fire macros are far easier to detect because you can hear when someone is using the 301 or Flatline with a single fire macro (there is a consistent but different audio than when just pulling down on the trigger while on auto).

    Spectating your killer isn’t always viable. There is a weird and common thing that happens where spectating doesn’t actually show you your killers real POV. So sometimes aim seems super suspicious while spectating but its just the server rendering what you see differently than what’s actually happening.

    Nothing is more concrete than actually getting someone to ADMIT to using a macro. I actively try to talk to randoms about anti-recoil in a way that makes them comfortable in admitting they are using. In Diamond ranked (and up) I consistently get randoms admitting to me that they are using exploits. It’s so consistent that I’m just absolutely convinced that 50% plus of the lobby (in Diamond and up MMR lobbies) are using anti-recoil advantages.

  • @NACHONOV0 No, with carbine it's standard. I can thrash you to an inch of your life with that gun, if you peek for 2 seconds at 50m, with the standard DS4 controller. So, I'd assume anyone better than me could at least do the same.
    Now, if you get destroyed at 50m by R99, CAR, or something, consistently, then I'd say we have a problem.
  • @NACHONOV0 You're confusing Cronus with Strikepacks.

    Strikepacks are everywhere, available right now at your local store, affordable, easy to use.
  • @NACHONOV0 getting one clipped is not a sign of cheating but it could... if a new account with default skins moves like a bot but shoots like a pro... otherwise not easy....
