QFT

But 1337 skillz can give you a 1337 rig, if youre the proper 1337 for that

Later on, I saw his score through the game monitor, and guess who was first on the list ?

I will try to follow him next time I see him He once was in my sqad, but he never spoke once, even after I talked to him.

Yep strange, he came in with 60+ kills, ive spotted him a few times and takes top spot instantly, no way he came from the other team either as I was top on kills with 38, closest behind was 35 from other team then he shows up?

What I mean is that two players of equal skill, one with a brand new top-of-the-line system and one with my 3yo rickety system.......... do you think one has an advantage ?

Well, I have a bad system, but it's the settings you choose, I am the equal gameplay wise to people with better systems.

view distance, geometry, terrain - all on high

no AA, no dynamic shadows or light, everything else on low

Connection is teh cause, too...

I played with laggers before, putted 2 bursts into a guy next to me, it took a second for him to die

ArmedDrunk&Angry · Post by **ArmedDrunk&Angry** » 2007-07-18 23:22

TY
I'm going to try Terrain and Geometry on high and see how it plays.
But nobody answered the question so I will rephrase it.
If you just got a 5,000$ rig, do you think your scores would be better ?

El_Vikingo · Post by **El_Vikingo** » 2007-07-18 23:25

Maybe, if you're already l337 with a shitty rig, then having smoother gameplay might improve your score.

But if you're 13 years old, and your daddy buys you the best PC in the world, you won't inprove at all, cause you never had the skillz anyways!1!

When you see the enemy at 15 fps, and they see you at 30 fps, they have twice the chances to kill joo!

Maybe.....but like i said, i´ve tryed it from different Angels, hidden behind a Wall, behind a Tree, or a Bush and all the Time he knows from where i´m coming. Bye the way, he´s had the same Clan Taq like the one who found me all over the Map, a few Days later. I´m playing long enough Ego Shooters and BF, i´ve learned to be carefull to name a good skilled Player as Cheater.
But the BR Files of the Games, speak their own Words......
But i didn´t wanna Write their Names or Clantag in a Public Board, maybe the 2 are the only one who cheating in their Clan. And since the Relase of PR 0.6, their K/D will be very low, maybe their Hacks didn´t works correctly with this Version for a while.
And they are not so Stupid to having a high K/D all the Time.
But it doesn´t matter, there will be a good Day and they will be captuered.
All Cheaters will be captuered, sooner or later.

Anything past 24 fps doesn't make a difference I think, since your eyes can't see more than that, if I'm not mistaken. And yeah, the settings and connection make of a difference than your rig I think. I have everything on high because I like the visual aspect of the game, I can deal with dying once or twice when I might have lived with lower settings if that makes the game look better.

24 ?!?! I have 24 and it sucks donkey balls! It feels so slow when turning around.

During beta testing, on one game (I think it was last Wednesday) on TG, Losus managed to do a 54:2 KDR. So it can happen, but I do agree it's somewhat seldom.

(we were defending East Beach flag to have a forward post - he gunned in the APC the whole round while the MEC tried desperately to destroy his vehicle. Fun. We lost the game, but not that Beach

)

if you change framerates (like from 80 down to 30) quickly, you DEFINATELY notice it. having high framerate and low ping is everything in fps. Tv's an movies n stuff have motion blur, whereas videogames dont yet, thats why 30 fps on a TV is like 60 on a computer

I just had my first run in with a hacker. First thing i noticed was a fattened version of a vehicle drop symbol on the minimap. Then everything went in slowmo, while a hack site advertisement took over the chat. Then the server crashed. That just happened on Tactical gamer... at least i think it was tg.

I saw a prime example of the Commander hack, of a thousand supply boxes being droped, luckly an admin was on to kick and ban this noob.

Meester · Post by **Meester** » 2007-07-19 01:15

Excuse my ignorance but how can people use aimbot's, dropping supply boxes from the sky in a multiplayer game where you have to have the same version as other people?

Is it the Battlefield 2 engine that is the cause of this happening in Project Reality? Can the developers stop this from happening? Is it the servers that are the problem? Can anything be truly done to stop this? Again excuse my ignorance.

They are using external "tools". It's possible to block it, but not easy. There is no miracle cure for this cancer either.

Its a shame really. I see people suggesting new things in suggestions (well duh

) but anti-hacking features should probably be number 1 priority (even though the developers of PR might be working on it?). The work of the many shouldn't be spoiled by the few.

Although some people shouting hacker might be wrong when a single bullet can kill. Trying to sieve the non-cheaters from the cheaters might be especially hard in a game such as this.

I have to admit i do that too but with nades and smoke to confuse the enemy. Was he on your team? And if yes do you know his name? Also i'm not the only one who's run into a hacker in PR recently. A few people i know complained about suspicious behavior on Basrah.

Ah, what exactly does "donkey balls" taste like? And don't ask me to ask my mom. I already did and she doesn't know either

I would ask my sister, but I'm afraid she might know

lol

Damn if you think thats bad, I don't know what you'd call mine. If I have terrain or textures on medium it lags :/
