Hackers running wild, no way to stop them...

Do Battlefield and other games suffer the same amount of hacking?

Last I heard BF3 was getting hit hard, though it's been awhile so they may have fixed that. Regardless, that isn't a fair comparison as BF and most other games are not nearly as open and customizable as the ArmA series.

Precisely. I'm not trying to make excuses here, but if you think that this is solely BE's fault you are missing something. Believe me, I'm working as hard as I possibly could.

Take your time and ban all the hackers for life !!!

if the community puts all confirmed hackers to BIS im pretty sure they will do something about it anyway, but proper evidence of this must be given I believe, they ban them from all BE products and its good bye Charlie Brown.

The more we work together on this and give $able information the better we can combat this problem

Hello there

BF3 was teaming with hacks and exploiters whatever you want to call em. They pretty much ruined a little fun game.

why SO serious ?
why you didn't trace them back to RL, grab some firearms and bang some brains then ?
point is: unless there was robust way to ensure gaming environment consistency, there always any or another way of exploiting or cheating.


p.s.
please post you favorite "they cheated in Arma2. now they all died ! mwhahahaha !"-videos on Youtube.

It's not just the hackers, it's the team killers and general game disruption, people destroying all the vehicles, others who shoot anyone not in their squad, I would suggest locking your servers and only giving out the PW to people you know on TS or people who can answer some Arma 2 trivia questions, till summer is over. They will get bored and move on.

well its mixed stuff.
as some gamemodes, game mods and gameservers quickly become "asshole simulators", just like one over-promoted semi-official modification become[insisted not be "spammed" against by BIS personel here in PM's], while other servers remain strictly based around team-based gameplay, co-operation and tactic/strategy.
so, "in short" its nothing new and same in past days/games.

p.s.
just recently saw Gunny kicked/banned one of such kiddos after anyongly-persistent stream of tk's and disruption/offenses under "for being asshole" by BEConsole.

Logging network traffic never was a very effective solution as most script hacks could not be detected that way.
