You are getting old and stale! Cough.

That said, I guess hackers could lag a server, all you'd need to do is somehow overflow the data transfered from the host to everyone else or so. You can DDoS normal dedicated servers fairly easily and with the sloppy coding IW has done in MW2 I'd be surprised if there weren't a way to do it here in one way or another.

I guess what I meant was would the hacks these guys use lag a server. Like could you tell when a hacker was playing b/c of the server lagging. Does that even make sense?

Well, almost every hacker I've seen has had a ping over 200ms. I'm starting to think they purposely lag themselves to avoid enemy fire, knowing that they will still hit due to the bot. People with extremely high pings lagaport around and are pretty hard to hit. Normally, they can't shoot back very well. With artificial aim, they are hard to hit and can tag you no matter where you are.

It's not hard to cap your upload rate, making you lag like a ***** while you can hit other people just fine.

It's unlikely that just using an aimbot would lag the server, but who knows what other crap people have running...

I'm not a hacker, and I hate hackers but it's $hit like this that makes others want to hack. To even the playing field. If vac doesn't do anything the hackers will kill this game (much like battlefield 2) and then what?

It seems that when it comes to effective anti hacking measures, the console world is making headway whereas the Pc based gaming community is left out. To me this is a sign that the console is where the software companies want us to spend our money (sigh)

Re: Recorded 3 Hackers...

Console is very proned to hardware hacks and mods on the boxes themselves for people to cheat. Battlefield is hardly dead any more than the hackful CS:S. One using punkbuster the other vac.

Bandwidth throttling is an old but effective way to survive in a FPS shooter, I don't condone it and the only true way to counter that is a high ping insta kick,
