Nobody is that good!

That they can have 14 kills within an hour while other very good pilots and well-known are around 3 or so. The statistics are important here. Heck, there isn't enough ammo on board for these numbers and not enough time to land and takeoff again to even find enough targets to initiate these numbers. Something is very amiss.

I've seen some pilots totaling up to 10 plus kills but they've been online for most of the day - not one hour and not necessarily repeatable.

I've been flying for many years and In my mind I'm convinced that there are good pilots out there that have some additional augmentation going on. The stats indicate that possibility.

I have no idea what these are because I do not spend any effort into looking at mods - not my style.

This is why IMHO that VAC needs to be turned on and active and the developers should have made it a part of their final delivery.
Week ago maybe my friend was flying on the blue side and killed 16 planes (spits and hurries) in 1 hour, then he changed for the red side and came on ATAG TS and continued to do the same.
Lot of pilots on the server and he used to go low on Manston and Hawkinge.
Target rich envirement.He didn't strafe he like to turn with spits.

Please give us some proof or stop accusing people.

I never saw anything suspicious.109 just have better zoom climb and can hang on engine much longer than spit and it is very stable even on zero speed.I was using that even against old super spitIIa and it worked most of the times.109 you can run on 2600 rpm and then it climbs better than on automatic prop pitch.

I just wonder why I never saw threads like this one or like weapons don't work ect. on the sukhoi forum and belive me there are a lot of very strong pilots there.

AbortedMan, you cannot seriously be comparing games like BF3 with huge online populations to the tiny, tiny online community of CloD. Every game has hacks, that is unavoidable. What I refuse to believe it is as rampant as some of you seem to believe. At most we are talking about one or two guys. Run fraps, catch the guy in the act, and show them to server admins.

Yes, I wholly agree, 1 or 2 guys at a time on the server during prime-time. I never meant to imply an entire side was cheating, sorry for not making that clear.

I just felt that some people's sentiment in this thread are under the impression that cheating is not possible or happening and wanted to educate/enlighten them a bit.

Read my post again. I indicated that the numbers on kills by certain pilots are raising yellow flags.

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?

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.

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.

Agree.

Also having some sort of script that would dink the points of someone who regularly bails out rather then fly all the way back to France would go a long way towards making things more realistic, and fair for those of us who don't think of virtual flying as a football match.

lol.... there are a LOT of folks in this thread who don't know how steam works.

Ask yourselves this:

Why do games like TF2 and Counterstrike update themselves so frequently?
