Rat catching
2 in game reports & 2 bans within 2 weeks. Maximum efficiency! Got em!
Forum Discussion
Yesterday, I reported this guy (just stats, no name here, to avoid 'name and blame' edit -- even though the guy deserves to be blamed).
Reported in game the way the OP did it.. Very clear cheater that any reviewer should be able to verify within seconds.
I will keep monitoring this guy to see when -- if ever -- he stops playing. I will post once I received the mail with the ban confirmation you had but if this follows the scheme I have seen with my reports so far then this will never come and the guy is allowed to keep playing.
@ForumUser I admit it is difficult to judge whom could be cheating, but if we go by HS% beyond which value does it get suspicious?…

Only check weapons with >100 kills. For ARs I'd say 30% is clear indicator of cheating. For sniper rifles, it depends. But if the guy has an overall acc of 50% and then 98% HS, then this is a 100% sign that he/she is cheating (just imagine being just able to hit half of all shots fired, but IFF you hit, then it is always a HS. That is statistically not possible.

That is statistically not possible.@ForumUser I find stats unreliable. On TRN’s it lists me as having 77,5% HS on 435 kills with the DXR-1. And 104% accuracy with the MCS-880 on 510 kills.
How is it possible to have 104% accuracy?… Not only out of 510 kills I apparently did not miss a single shot (?) but also more shots hit the target than I actually fired. Where did they come from…?
- @TheseusJason
Thats crazy, how can a weapon be 104% accurate?
Yeah, stats are not an accurate way to determine hackers but if the headshot kill is high, it gives you someone to watch. We need rental servers that we can police!
- @TheseusJason What’s your take on the manufacturers, like Microsoft & Sony. Where does their responsibility lie? Developers have been at this for years with a pretty low success rate. Cheats couldn’t work without the operating system allowing it. Many programs require a certificate to run, and while maybe those can be spoofed it would change the bar for the average lazy cheater. Game talks to OS, OS says red listed certificate and game won’t play. I’m sure it’s not that simple, but why are we not holding the OS manufacturers responsible for their passive role.
- @ATFGunr I fully agree with you, 100%.
While I’m IT ignorant it is a fact that the Apple OS seems impervious to malware for decades, and look at Microsoft’s with near constant ‘security updates’. Something to do with kernel architecture?
Why can the brains at Apple do something about it but not Microsoft and Sony?…
