Please start VAC online.

[ATAG_Colander]

I for one, do not understand the purpose of this thread.
We all know that there are, and always will be, cheaters on ANY game. Having No-VAC, VAC, or even a server admin sitting next to each pilot will not stop it, only slow it.

Personally, I have not seen any indication of cheating but if there is 1 or 2 cheaters on prime time where there are 90 players, I will have a 2% chance of interacting with one and a 4% if counting only the opposite army.

This 4% does not keep me awake at night and I'm pretty sure they will eventually get tired of the game and move on. The ones that stay, will do because of the challenge and passion for the game, not because they need to increase a virtual counter of some kind.

The above does not mean that, if proof is submitted, the cheaters should not get a permanent ban from all servers.

My 2 cents.

Over and out.
Colander.

That is not an accusation but a referral to some that there is something happening and it is not just due to the skill of the pilot itself.

Don't be so naive to believe that modifications do not take place. Regarding Russian pilots - there are many Western pilots just as good. Hmmmmm, I wonder why it seems that there is quite often a referral to Russian pilots being good and little referrals to Western pilots being good? The laws of averages do not apply like this so just possibly, just possibly, something is amiss?

Easy Cat, in my experience on these forums speaking in even the slightest blanket terms and broad generalities towards groups tends to get you in trouble.

No, Russians just fly better in average (and I am not one of them btw).

You will be interested to learn a story of the greatest IL-2 cheater of all times =FB=vik-s and his friend =FB=Storm They were the worst cheaters known by community for 3 years after Il-2 launched. No one of the western community doubted that they cheat. Then they came to the Lowland TigerMeet 2003 LAN European Championship in the Netherlands and won it becoming official European champions. (VikS then became a part of RoF team

and still "cheats".

)

If you have as long winters as we do here in Russia and nothing to do outside for most part of the year and no money to go to a pub or cinema you would spend as much time flying as many Russian guys do (all their off-work time basically).

If you loved WWII aviation as much as Russians do some of you would have created IL-2 series, not Oleg Maddox (most successful game studios are located in the west, but not avia-sim ones, aren't they?) For many this is not a game but life.

Use your brain to think why no one but Russian community organized this championship (2nd time already) http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=33946 (won by none-russian btw) When you win the next one, you are allowed to call them cheaters. They will take it as a compliment btw.

Show a video proof from ATAG (just fly behind and film the guys you mean) or fhut up and stop being a nazi. This stinks. If you can not shoot down 5 noobs in 5 minutes it does not mean no one can ...Here is a proof that cheaters exist for you.
