Does anyone else ever get accused of cheating? I seem to get it at least once while playing. It doesn't bother me but it does get a little old. I play with a keyboard and mouse. Nothing special, no game pads, no fancy mouse or any other gaming peripherals. My mouse isn't even a laser mouse its an old roller ball. Quite frankly I?m not even sure how someone hacks, what a ?BOT? is, hell I haven?t even figured out how to ?bind? anything yet. I simply show up and try my damndest to kill as many guys on the other team and cap as many flags as possible. I don?t know if I?m good or bad or mediocre? Sometimes I can?t seem to kill anything, and sometimes I?m on fire and after an hour I have 100+ kills and 50ish deaths. Should I die more? Maybe it?s my style? I?m usually always assault or support, I never camp unless I know the other team is pushing that particular point on the map; I?m always moving forward. I don?t know? All I know is I don?t cheat in any way, and anyone who thinks I do is more than welcomed to investigate till their hearts content. I?ll send game files or do whatever else it takes to prove my innocence. Ok, done venting.

The only time I've ever been accused of hacking was in TF2. I was accused of this since I took so much damage and didn't die, when in reality, I was a medic firing the Blutsauger at him (which lets you gain 3 HP upon every hit taken). He did a lot of damage, but I was evasive enough to dodge his moves and gain all lost HP right back. =)

Most people accuse others of hacking when in reality, you're just that good. They're just angry, that's all. =P

There isn't even hacks that could exploit the game to give you god mode..
 
I was accused of using "hax" on INS when I joined a game and got 12 kills in the first minute
 
The only time i got accused for hacks, was when i was given noclip by an admin, another admin came in and banned me for "hacking the rcon" :(
 
Oh yeah. I get called out a lot when sniping in TF2. I've been called nasty, eGO permabanned kind of stuff. MW2 also.
 
I get called a hacker everyday in MW2, it's actually turning into a compliment.
 
I remember in the mod The Specialists I used to get banned for hacking all the time. Of course I wasn't, but it was flattering to be accused of it.

Then again I got accused once or twice in DODs, which is all fun and good.
 
The first time I ever played Combat Arms (free online FPS) I was accused of hacking after I killed the top two players in the game by almost dumb luck (and poor moves on their parts). Even though its annoying, its kinda flattering, too :)
 
o yea, i used to be called a hacker back in 1.6 cs all the time. but that was when me and my clan used to practice like crazy. scrims almost everyday, and i still dont remember the maps quite that well, lol.

but now, i just play for fun, dont even try. to tired now a days to care. rofl.

Well, if you dont hack and get annoyed by this and your playing on our servers, let an admin on the server know when someone accuses you of hacking. He/she will take care of the situation. I would just keep playing as you normally do. I have the same thing happen to me where ill just be absolutely terrible for a day or 2 then ill do really good for a day, then back to terrible i go. Ive never got accused of hacking though.
 
I suck so hard I never get accused of cheating... at least in shooters. I was accused of being Cheaty McCheatpants the Cheating farmer of cheats (That's the actual term the accuser used.. Dead serious >_> ) only once in a shooter, it was in Tron 2.0 (I miss that game :( Where's 3.0 Monolith? For that matter where's NOLF 3?) and I got accused of that because I had a 30 to 1 kill ratio and 25 of those kills were in a single life, really, the only reason is because I actually made use of the fact that throwing the disc at the floor makes the floor vanish while the others were just tossing discs and hoping they could hit the player, and all I had to do was jump diagonally and then block or throw a disc into their floor so they'd fall down. They must've never seen (Or played for that matter) Tron because they thought I was hacking the floors.

I do get blamed of cheating in StarCraft a lot though, which surprises me because I can get stomped pretty easily as I'm very slow, but once I do get production up I can fend off almost any attack and still have enough forces to make an attack. If I'm fighting against someone new (Or just not very good) I get blamed of cheating for one of two reasons 1. They destroy all the buildings in my primary base and don't realize I made at least 2 others hidden in the map and say I had cheats that prevented him from winning or 2. They wonder why the marines in their bunker aren't shooting at my aircraft and didn't build any air turrets so they get mad.

If they're a little more skilled, I get blamed of cheating whenever I beat them because of my aforementioned slowness and they're like "WTF YOUR A NEBW HOW YU BEET ME :angry:"

I really hate admitting this, but there WAS one time when I was a bit younger that someone blamed me of cheating.... and I was. It was in the original Diablo, I had a cheat tool, and believe it or not I mostly used it for fairly benign purposes (I usually just used it to copy characters and then convert them to SP characters to experiment with the other classes and rare items; I never used them in MP though) but one time I was pissed at a guy for taking all the gold, all the potions, all the items after beating a boss and so I used the cheater tool to not only steal some items from his inventory and then delete them, but to also reduce his character to level 0 which makes it impossible for him to ever level up again. I kinda feel bad, now, seeing as I'm a bit more mature (I was only 5 yrs old) and because I really really hate cheating. I think Cheating takes all the fun out of it, unless they are fun cheats, and I don't like cheating at all in multiplayer save for the *rare* occasion when people make cheat servers just to have fun screwing around.
 
re; Cheating...

Maybe I shouldn't ask this. Maybe I'm opening a can of worms, but... Can people cheat in DoD? And if so what cheats are available? I don't want to know how to do it because I never will, I'd just like to know if there are cheats available what are they so I can answer some questions I have. One time I flanked a guy in sewers at Kalt, he was crouching the other way with his back to me. I unloaded a whole clip into him with the AK, he didn't die. He turned around and killed me. His health bar was full green. I chalked it up to lag, but it was pretty strange. And sometimes guys make these crazy good shots, like running while shooting the M1, while i'm running as well, and they still manage to kill me with one shot. Sometimes it just seems improbable. I usually chalk those up to the guy is way better with an M1 than I will ever be. All in all I find our server pretty 'punk' free. That's why I pretty much only play DoD on EGO servers. However, I would love it if EGO had an Anzio server.

Thanks for all the replies and thanks for letting me vent a little.

You can google / search youtube videos to see what kind hacks are out there, I only say this because i do this my self so that i am better aware of what's out there.

Going as far as actually installing AIM bot proggies as well as other game altering scripts is a big NO-NO and will get you banned, but definatly watch some video if you can to stay aware of whats going on, and if you are on an eGO server, say something to the admins in a PSAY or by typing @ in open chat, then a space, then your message and an admin will hear it and help you out if your cool about it..(Honestly there is alot of chatter sometimes where people are just upset, as you see from all the response regarding it above, hehehe ^__^).

Happy Fragging

Thanks!!
