Re: Lots of cheaters today?
I don't notice many suspected h4xorz, but I've been running into a significant number of people up on buildings that they can't possibly get on top of.
The hotel and the tall building near the train accident on Karkand, for example. There is simply no legitimate way to get on top of those buildings on a server with friendly fire on.
Last night I was on a squad battling against another squad on top of the bldg near the train accident (one guy's name was =kobalt=). There was at least a 5-man squad up there and, if they hadn't been where they couldn't possibly be, I'd have applauded their teamwork. They kicked ass resupplying and healing and respawning and generally laying waste to a pretty big area around their perch with grenades and rounds. But there's just no way to get up there without some sort of cheat.
And, strange as it sounds, they seemed to have limited ability to shoot people on the ground they couldn't see to aim at. How can someone on a tall building shoot you if they can't see you? If you are right at the very base and looking upward at the only visible upper edge of the bldg and you can't see the enemy up there, he sure as hell can't plug you enough to kill you very quickly. But they did it time and time again.
After trying to assault them from the ground for a bit too long, we addressed the problem with strategy. Even so, it took my squad like 8-10 minutes, three snipers hidden all over the freaking map, and a couple grenade launchers firing from cover to get those freaks off that roof.
It was pretty fun after we got smart, and we all got a lot of kills. But they were cheating, and that ain't right.
