| Soma said: Finally I could play online =) The first time I had lot of problems, I think maybe hackers or something because I just couldn't move. Like a month later tried it again and it was great! Zero lag and very fun to play. Some guys are really good or how the hell do they kill you with just one shot?! Also, any tips for the sensitivity configuration? |
Every so often you will get an error in the connection where you appear and can't move, or you can only spin on the spot, or your viewpoint doesn't move but your gun spins around you... often this is joined with you spawning outside of the map area so you get either a black screen or a view of the area like you get when you fall through a glitch in an adventure game or GTA or something.
I don't think there are that many hackers as people say, and they shouldn't be able to affect your character anyway.... a lot of what people think is cheating (people jumping around so fast and jerky you can't get a lock on, or you shoot them in the face and they don't die) is lag... so the lag causes the other character to "jump" from 1 place to another, or means that when you shoot them right in front of you, they were not really there.
If however you see them "jump" or warp across huge sections of the map then they could be hackers (though it could also just be a problem at their end as there isn't much advantage to them unless they can stay in 1 place for longer than what I have seen)
I have seen 3 definate hackers though (with a couple of other possibles) the 3 were quite obviously hacking, 1 called Calypso who on the streets level immediately jumped from the ground into the opposing teams (my teams) area on the streets level and just stood in the corner invincible shooting at everyone. Another, also on streets had hacked the rocket launcher to fire all 7 rockets in a stream, and he kept swapping which team he was on and evenin out the score before switching to the winning team at the end. And the final guy was also swapping teams and seemed more powerful than usual, but he may have just been really good (he wasn't invincible as I killed him a couple of times)
