    There's this certain competitive online game where the probability that you'll meet Cheaters in one lobby is above 60% or more. I was driven crazy by this BS because I can't even enjoy playing the game.

    I mean, I don't know why there's so many pathetic b*tches that use hacks so that they can win a game, like what's so fun about that when the result is already obvious? You're not great at all, that's just simply sad to see, you have to relies on hacks because you know that your skill is dogsh*t.

    I'm so fuck*n pissed off and sorry that I got a bit emotional because this is just too much recently. I don't mind if you use hacks on for something involving creativity, experiment, etc, but please don't do it in online games, especially a competitive ones like FPS or alike because you're ruining everyone's day. Can we just play normally please?

    And can we do something about these guys? Like, sending out a virus to the cheater's device if there's an anomaly detected or something like that, just to teach them a lesson.
    Not even COD could escape from these guys. Cheaters are everywhere, sigh

    In some cases moderators are attentive to such problems. In such cases reporting might do the trick It may be running from trouble but how about trying to play games where amount of cheaters doesn’t seem to be that high?

    Back in unreal tournament we'd have to install our servers with cheat detection software and it'd really depend on who'd update their program faster. You'd eliminate the typical 'lolz i found a cheat' player, but the professional gaming circles would still have them as they'd be connected to the programming teams for the cheat. Even if banned, they'd return with a new copy of the game soon enough, new nickname etc.

    You should report stuff like that to GMs, no? otherwise, if you can't put up with it then just find another game

    Well. You can always report them to the developers and gain support in the game's online community/forum.

    There's also an option to say goodbye to the rules and join thd dark side.. :blobninja::blobpeek::blobdevil:

    I say, find those cheaters, get to know them, form a loving relationship with them...then cheat on them. That's the only solution.

    I really like the game, it's a classic one and it's still fun to play, but considering the situation, yeah maybe it's time to stop
    Like what I said, the cheaters are too many to count, there's a limitation too because my ranks are still not high enough to get the privilege to report someone. Unless I go to their website and report each ones which is gonna be a pain

    I once played a game (S4 League), where you had the occasional cheater.
    It was annoying, but sooo satisfying when you could kill them (either because their cheat did not include no damage, you blasted them into insta-kill zones or they just could not hit you because even with their cheat they sucked).

    Once we played a game and a cheater joined the enemies team, did some cheater stuff aaannd... got banned... surprisingly quickly.
    Until we saw that ANNOYING in the chat and noticed that OUR team had a gm.

    So yeah, best way to deal with cheaters is getting your hands on that sweet, sweet gm power.

    Cheaters are frustrating.
    I remember one time in COD MW3 i happened to be the server for the match, and there was a cheater with aimbot and wallhack or something. so I had ALT-TABBED the game after we have planted the bomb, or before other players could plant it. and everyone had the worst fps ever, and could barely do anything. It worked and cheater didn't manage to win. Lol. Sorry for the other team though, not their fault for having a rando cheater with them. (It was a search and destroy match)

    Yeah, I was talking about PB, maybe one of the reason why Garena throw it away back to Zepetto was because of this lol

    I think that the only one who could prevent further abuse of in game loops is the devs. They need to step up the game's protection from exploitation. :notlikeblob:

    Well, with such a crazy high number of cheaters, it's basically impossible to do anything.

    If there is only one cheater in the match, you can sometimes win by outskilling them depending on the game (I remember back in Grand Chase, you could beat cheaters out by playing in the stage with bottomless cliffs and throwing them down the cliff, as that killed even the guys with infinite health cheat enabled), but when 1/2 the players cheat? Then it's hopeless.

    Unless you can make a big group of friends and play only with them, there is no real hope for you at this point I'm afraid.
