Maybe they should put that in the next patch?

If you are the admin of the server, you will not get kicked...or no one can call a vote to kick you. This is what we need in the patch is ways to prevent things like that happening

Also you said you were voted off of your server for cheating, were you. Cuase people who play on there own server already have an advatage cause of there ping! Its local so its like playing a lan match, but to cheat on your own server??? Thats taking it TOO FAR!

No I wasn't cheating. I was connect to it through the internet, not locally so my ping was 30-40. It does give you a little advantage when everybody else is around 100+, but not much of an advantage. I've been playing the game since day one so my regulars know I play fair and don't cheat. I have also been playing fps for 2 years now, so I don't exactly suck. It's when you get a new person to the game on your server and they have a short fuse and try to kick you cause you killed them. I just laugh and so does my clan when somebody accuses me of cheating now.

You see, that the thing. You are on your own server and you cant even play freely without some jerk face crying "Cheater!!!". Sometimes I just wish that you could give the guy a clap around the head...lol

I heard that punkbuster will be in the the next SOF2 Patch.

I hope it is.:mad: :fistpunch: :confused:

Damn!! pings of over 100! I regularly get a ping of 18-20. If it goes higher than 38 I usually give it up as a bad job. I connect normally to the Blueyonder servers as BY is my ISP and I am on 1mbit cable modem. Until I read this post I didn't think I had owt special.... bugger me..

Punkbuster is not a very good cheat prevention program, I remember a couple years ago when you had to have Punkbuster to play on almost every server in CS, this only lasted a couple of days though. It was easily hacked and every update after that was also easily hacked. Plus there was the problem of punkbuster crashing comps and games, and dropping FPS. I don't know if PB is the direction Raven wants to go, but who knows maybe PB has cleaned up it's act since then.

For ravens sake, I hope it does work. But I just got that feeling it wont. Then what do we do if it all freaks out and SOF2 becomes a cheating heaven...not htat it isnt already:mad:


A forum server would be an advantage:agreed:

Viagranator2k said~~~~~>I Have been keeping a very close eye out on some people, but some of then when you say like (Nice radar you got there) they say LoL and then come up with some stupid thing like, I herad them coming or I saw him coming. The thing that really pisses me off is that you know they are using cheats.

Ok I use headphones when I play SoF2 and I have the volume turned the fuck up, like WAY up...I can totally hear soemoen coming, like exactly, form behind walls, behind doors, above me, below me, to teh left, to the right, if they're in my hearing radius and not walking/crouching, I can hear it...and i use this to my advantage all the time...so that's bullshit...i'd hate to be on a server, hear a dumbass come running around a corner and blast him, then be accused of 'cheating'...dude, you needa better excuse to call someone a cheater...:cya:

Plutonium2k September 3rd, 2002 01:15 AM

You said that you have got your volume cranked right the fuck up...what you gonna say if someone is stairing at a wall and blasts someone as they come around a corner?

Or you you see a guy that looks up to get ready to shoot someone in the head?

Ok...it is sometimes just skill to look in hiding places,but to know where people are every time is just plain cheating.

The thing about CS is when punkbuster was introduced it was a separate program that ran external from CS. Which means it was easier to hack and bypass. Punkbuster is now going to be installed directly into the Sof2 coding which will make it more effective. It is currently being used in Return to Castle Wolfenstein and is working quite well. There will always be a bug when something new is implemented, that is why there are patches. You should go to the punkbuster website and actually read up on the software. If you don't like punkbuster you can always try to find a server not running it. Everybody seems to always compare punkbuster to CS, yes it was a flop as Half Life would not give them any support with the software coding. Kinda hard to build a car from scratch without any blue prints.

I totally agree with you, but there is always a risk that within the forst couple of days SOF2 will be hacked. My dad was looking for a =n AIMBOT on a cheat Forum and he found it and got it for free. It just shows that the cheats are out there and what can stop them in their tracks for good?
