We'll be focusing on anti-cheating efforts much later, after the PC relaunch. Right now we can't update the PC game due to a code freeze.

 

We won't be informing anyone when anti-cheating efforts are completed, either. That just seems like an invitation to check code changes.

You dont tell an enemy when you are opening and closing you gate....

Honestly 8 times out of 10 when someone calls hacks they are wrong, and I haven't actually seen a hacker anytime in the last 6 months.

 

Right now the only way to deal with actual hackers is to record them and report them to supp-OH WAIT SUPPORT DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE

 

Cynicism rises.

Honestly 9.2 times out of 10 when someone calls hacks they are wrong....

FTFY
I largely agree, and would say that often, the newer the Hawken player, the less trustworthy the accusation.
Investing more time practicing and enjoying the game can give a better perspective of what is possible within the realm of human skill and what is impossible without artificial aiming.
There are some truly incredible Hawken players who can pull off some amazing maneuvers and shots.
Edit: I personally can't wait for anti cheat. It's a win-win; fewer hackers and fewer hackusations.

Hackusations are the last type of compliment left in the Hawken community, so I don't know why we're trying to stamp them out.

I always say thank you when I get accused of using hacks xD Like, wow my aim is as good as aimbot, makes me feel less super conscious of my terrible, frantic aim lmao

Although, tbh, I also get a feeling of "...This is what you call hacking?" 'Cause my skill level isn't anywhere near the level the better players are at to justify calling my moves too-good-to-be-human o3o;;

Poor Pulcinella, I've been in a number of games were Pulc gets hakusationed. I'm about as potato as the poor souls Pulc is crushing but even I can tell (for the most part) when someone is just better than me. I don't think aimbots are an issue right now anyways.

I have gotten a few hackusations, which is hilarious. I'm not even close to the level of other, better Hawken Players.

Also this is wrong.
Devs are not updating PC at all, and have explained why. Relaunch of PC is being worked on.
It is out there for the community to keep playing until it can relaunch. Trust me the money wont be great with the current community.
Most people who say they've paid money, paid it to ADH, not the new devs RLD (I have done both about 60/40 split).

Or they are smurfing/ having alts.
I say when tow% is lower than sustain hit% it is more suspicious.

This is just....False.

I have played with and against obvious smurfs who have had less than 50 hours and who go on a tear that can last for over a dozen matches of stomps. All they are doing is being matched up with much newer players and thereby racking up an unusually high k/d ratio.

I am certainly not defending such behavior, but I am convinced that smurfing is MUCH more common than aimbotting in this game.

This is more the issue that I was eluding to above aimbots. Low pop and fuzzed up matchmaking isn't helping (although much better recently IMO, thx Devs). Then there are those who do it specifically to stomp, which is utter douchebaggery that prevents the community growing.

This is the most frustrating part of the game, at least for me. Sometimes I just give up for a week or two after getting faced rolled over and over again. Hawken is a lot harder to learn than pretty much every other PVP game I've played so far and it's pretty discouraging when you can't even get a single tow/grenade off before you're dead.

 

With the low population and the fact that these higher MMR players really don't have anywhere else to go I understand it's going to happen. But yes, this does tend to discourage potatoes like me from playing and trying to get better at it.

"It's the Alludium Q-36 Hyper-Space Modulator.  I'm going to blow up the Earth."

 

I sucked at Hawken for more than a year, when the playerpop was much bigger.  EVERYONE could rek me, and did.  I stuck with it, and I'm at whatever level I'm at now.  Message: stick with it.  It'll click, and then you'll break a skill wall, then you'll get rekt by a whole new class of skilled players (you may see them onesy-twosey in random pubs now, but soon you'll see 11 of the 120 or so active skilled players in the room at the same time as you - every time).

 

So, yeah, you got that to look forward to.  That and the day that Hawken gets a PC patch, and all the stale/rusty skrubs return, and all the new fodder lines up in front of your guns.

 

I look forward to that day.

touché

I'm also waiting for a patch to bring back the scrubs.

There are no challenge in the new pilots while they haven't mastered Hawken movement etc (even if they are an otherwise ok FPS player), but most are discouraged and leave before they figure out the game enough to get over that hump to "the Skrub zone".

All of the people who were in the skrub zone with me have more play time and eventually skill up, and become pubstars, where they can rek other scrubs (until a milge comes along to skool them).

I don't mind as much these days as the spread in matches seems narrower, even if it gets a 2100-2300 in there it doesn't ruin games like it used to as there aren't also a bunch of <1500. If I don't encounter good players, I won't learn how to improve. The games are more fun though when they are a bit better, not magnitudes better.

I've personally haven't had much issues with aimbotters/ex ray version users since the only aimbotter/ex rayer I've seen currently as of late only uses Rocketeer, which I find to be extremely odd choice for their hacking mech preference. The real issue I've seen as of late that people have been exploiting with has been lag switches. Which I'm quite surprised that that still a thing, considering since I haven't seen that since the 90s. There using lag switches to escape hostile areas and to boost behind you for an extra hit or kill. Then they turn it back off again, you know who you are...I'm sure people on here know who I'm talking about as well. Btw why are you using an aimbot&wallhack with the Rocketeer?! Really the Rocketeer?

If lag switches are in fact a thing that's one thing I've run into at least a half dozen times recently. I thought it was just my server ping or something.

Lag switches? Aimbotting Rocketeers?
Isn't the point of such exploits to gain an unfair advantage in order to win, or something?
I must say, it doesn't seem like when I am experiencing stuttering that there is an obvious clear cut cheating winner using a lag switch or a botting Rocketeer.
Seems like cheaters are really slacking off these days.

Are you just copy-paste that into every hax thread?
 
Here is what contributing sounds like:
"I have *recently* seen a pilot with behaviors that can only be explained by hax, such as breaking the turn cap/snapping"
"All the pilots that i have seen hacused are in all probability just good players/smurfs, as there is no account stats or movement behaviors that can only be explained by hax"
"Hackers can be countered with proper CQC strategy such as..."
