XBox cheats?

Is it possible to install cheats/hacks on XBox? I didn't think it was possible, but I've had three experiences in the past few days of an enemy knowing EXACTLY where I was inside a building.

Yesterday was the most blatant. I was in a KC 'shack' - had been there for a good 20 seconds when I heard footsteps. I went to crouch in the corner with my sights trained on the door. I was there for 10 seconds when I was killed. There's a small hole in the shack between the wall and the roof. You'd have to be psychic to think of climbing onto the roof and spying through the hole to see if an enemy is hiding in the one corner of the building you'd be able to see. I wasn't scanned - the enemy was a Mirage.

The other day I was crouching in a building aiming at the door as I could see a Rampart approaching. She had her gun out and was aiming right at me before the door had even opened.

    @EdwardDLuffy If they saw you go in the building and are very good they can typically guess where you will be. Just watch Backoffmyjankz or zeus and you will see they always know odd places to get up on to shoot through cracks.

    The Xbox itself no, but could be leaching data from the Xbox's network on a PC. So while it's true you won't find aim-bots, ESP, wall hacks directly on the system, I wouldn't rule them out being used on a 3rd party device to relay the info.

    If someone is coming directly to you, I would watch them to see if they do it to others and record it. Every console has the ability. You can then upload that to your one drive and upload that to YouTube or something.

    Other cheats that seem to be common on consoles are 3rd party devices like cronusmax. The device them self are not the cheats, but the scripts they can take are the main issue. So, don't let others tell you "You simply can't have someone know your location on consoles". It's more than possible, just very rare. I say that as most people into networking and knowledge of this type of software use and play on PC.

    OMG there was a blatant one today. I was solo in a round two us v them. The ring was huge, of course. As I rounded a mountain I saw the trails of the enemy squad heading off towards Creature Containment, which was the other side of the ring. I expected a long wait, perched halfway up a ledge on a slope.

    They came right to me. I mean RIGHT to me. It was laughable. From the opposite side of a round two ring RIGHT to my position. They even took cover before they started firing.

    I would post the footage but it would 'name and shame'.

    The strange thing was, just before I began to climb up the slope I noticed two people were suddenly observing me. They vanished after a few seconds. Is it possible that the other squad can do this? Perhaps with a different account on a different device?

    This and the bloody rubber banding is REALLY putting me off playing.

    (If anyone wants to see the footage they know where to look, but I can't link it here).
