Ya taking screenshots was the first thing I though of but the hack detects when a screenshot is being sent and sends a normal or clear screen with the CHAMS removed. Pretty ingenious really. So taking screenshots wont do anything, but we could try I guess but the only real reliable way that I've ever know'n is my own gut feeling. I know we would hate to ban a good player that seems like hacking but now that there is no more reliable PB to protect us I think we all need to go with our gut.
For example, on the 2nd map after they came in(the winter map with lots of foliage and objects). Several rounds came right through the bushes and there is no fing way they can see me because I can't see them. I know you can toss out a motion sensor and what not but in hardcore mode they are rendered useless as there is no red-orang arrow pointing you out. Yes, you could bring up the map or mini map but that will not allow you to mow down people like they were doing when Line of Sight is blocked by foliage. You can shoot through foliage obviously but not like they were doing.
Also severel times(lost count it happened so much) I would spawn and be facing one of them trying to take the flag but they were not facing me. They COULD NOT have seen me but in a split second they whipped around and kill me in a few bullets. NOT POSSIBLE without an aimbot.
Alot of us are long time veterans of FPS, we know when something is really wrong. Our gut instinct combined with our years of experience is not perfect and it is hard to tell sometimes if a play er is just that good or hacking but I thiknn we need to operate like a Casino does when they suspect a cheat but can't prove it:
"I am sorry sir, but I have to ask you to leave, your play is too strong for us"
Personally, I'd rather risk making banning mistake than to leave it to chance and ruin the server/bgame which it's doing for me. I think we could trust 42 server regulars who are not starting to get the game and come in and play now but be very wary of players we don't know.
Another supporting piece to think about it that this game is alot harder to have a great score on. alot of us are very good fps players and in the first days of having it we are all experiencing the same thing, a k/d of below 1.0 which for yours truely is pretty hard to swallow (LOL). So there's a learning curve here and anyone that gets 22/2(example) ever game like a few of these guys were or thereabouts I am going to have to be automatically suspicious of hacking until the games been out for several more months.
Thanks, needed to vent I guess and share my thoughts.
