unfortunately there is very little you can do to get evidence. The only thing a player can do is check PB screen shots if they are made public by the server-admins... ever more demoralizing is that a lot of hacks don't have anything on their screen to show they are hacking... an AimBot doesn't need any interface.

EDIT: Also if there is a screen found of someone hacking you have to verify it was not tampered with and also there needs to be a public ban list but you can still only ban accounts, its up to PB to ban Hardware.

PS I've researched this stuff in anti-cheat communities in Americas army when I played that game frequently as they had many more hacks than BF2 due to it being a free game.

you need to get screenies, from the admin.

you cant you use battle recorder as it can be tampered with.

but here its a good place to start if you think someone has been hacking

punkbusted

it shows people with bans.

just change the search type to alias, then click the ban id to see what servers hes banned from and the offence

It probably went more like, "I was just trying them!" Hacks are like drugs, once you try them, you can never go back.

....or "I was just using them to see what they looked like so I could be better at picking them out"

...or "I don't use them to kill... I just run them so that I can bust other hackers"

... or "My sibling was using my account!"
... or "My password must have been stolen, because it wasn't me!"

.. or as goldman put it "Sigh, I don't cheat. You guys where just lying down there didn't even return fire." AKA "I don't cheat. You just suck."

Your best bet to catch someone who you think is hacking. Is to ask in game chat if the server admin can take a PBSS. I am sure most would be glad to.

Yeah, I was so happy to see someone finally got a screen. He made it soooo obvious yet continued to act all smarmy and "skilled"...

Because the Server Admin of the PB Screen must send this Pic to PunksBusted an than they will at him on the Master Ban List. And then he will be BAND Automaticly on all BF2 Server who were Streamt and has Uptatet the Master Ban List.

And then he will add to this list like that guye we catch yesterday on the TB Server.

I have played with him and talked to him. Honestly, he is a good guy but he's fishy. Every time he plays, he gets a lot of kills more than deaths like 50:6.

Well the picture shows he is not fishy but rather Guilty as charged.

How do you know from the picture that it's him? I mean, I don't see his name anywhere. I'm sorry I'm sure that's a dumb question but I'd still like to know.

Wasn't this the ******* that was laughing at video of US troops getting IEDed?

As for 50/6 k :d ratios, I've gotten up there before. I once got a 37:2 on Zhiang-whatever Security Area without ever touching a sniper rifle.

edit: ah, now I see where it's got his name.

Good to see another one bite the dust. I just don't understand why someone would cheat in a game like this. What does one "get" for it? Nada.
