Abusing The 'Kick' [Soldier Ranks]
This topic has been touched on but I don't feel it's been discussed enough in depth.
My Case:
CPU & Hardware; Notebook PC (8 GB Ram, 2 TB Memory) & Beats By Dr Dre headphones [5:1 Audio Setting]
My favored map of play is Laboratory [Ghost Mode] > Global Risk.
I live in NYC, so my ping is by far greater in Alpha server.
The gun I use is the SG552
Those whom are above average in play, and have played as GR in Lab in Alpha KNOW how much of a pain in the a** it is to officially complete a game. If I play 10 Straight matches in Lab, I will only complete 2 of them, 8x being falsely accused of hacking thus being kicked. At first it was whatever- I'll move on and find another game. Now it's grown much more into a headache. Lets be honest; It doesn't take a rocket scientist to master Laboratory > GR (using headphones). High quality headphones will give away the position of BL with ease (without 'Noise Down'). 9 of 10 times, the 'Kick Campaign' is started by a user ranked 'Soldier' or LOW 'Petty Officer'. You'll hear them in a corner, kill them and be called a 'chammer', all because you could CLEARLY hear their position in headphones. You'll be scoped in from the ramp and see them running or fick.ering, kill them and be called a 'hacker'. Due to their poor judgement of aim, instead of headshotting you they hit you in SOMEWHERE besides the head, your an 'HP Hacker'. Or better yet- Simply hear breathing and SPRAY everywhere, and be called a hacker. ALL OF THIS because of your hardware, and experience in the map (practice makes perfect)...your called a hacker/chammer? This issue is ONLY a MAJOR ISSUE in Alpha. I could play elsewhere, but than I go to West Coast and I have to deal w/ SOOOOO MUCH lag (more so from other users; My Alpha Ping = 60'ish & West Coast fluctuates from 101-116). EVERY, yes EVERY game I join there's ALWAYS a minimum of 4 ppl being called a hacker when they're not, all by users of rank I'd stated.
I PERSONALLY feel this issue should be addressed in some way. It sucks when you purchase ZP for guns that expire in x amount of days and you BARELY get to use them. I myself am a grown man, not a child using their parents money to fund their gaming experience...I don't particularly like to throw money away, but $9 USD isn't overly much. The MAJORITY of the issue comes from 'Soldier' raked users, this including the ACTUAL hacking, sadly I don't think they should be allowed to play in General Servers. Earn their experience stripes playing with users closely resembling their ranking. Fair is fair, I had to earn my stripes, as did everyone else, now that I found a map & format I'm EXCEPTIONALLY good at I get penalized in my experience? (as with others and the same issue)
Soldier Ranked users ONLY allowed in the Rookie Server...anyone else think that's fair? Reducing the # of hackers in the general population, and reducing the number of users abusing the kick when players aren't hacking.

I play with no sound at all. And I get hacusated ALOT. On both GR and BL. As long as you have those headphones, good FPS, and ping you will be hackusated and kicked. Just the way the CF community is right now, just hang in there i'm sure Z8 will do SOMETHING about the paranoia of hackers.

I like BobbyBlakk's idea of servers for different ranks to spread the skill levels out more. We have the trainnee-corporal server. How about one for sargeants and one for hgher ranks? Lower level players can still play on the higher rank servers if they feel like it, same as now.
