Info on VIP hacks

RodneyJohns

I don't care where they come from as I don't have an interest in hacking. I've been playing for a year now and I've heard people say that public hacks are stopped by Xtrap but VIP hacks update automatically.
1. What is a VIP hack?
2. How is the hack being updated automatically?
3. Why does Xtrap not stop these hacks?

In the last 2 days I've reported 2 - 360 aimbotters which is a pretty blatant hack when you see the replay. If someone could explain why these are getting through I would appreciate it.

VIP's are the hacks little nerd kids pay for, they are updated quickly because the hack creators get paid for them and are more important to them.

1. A VIP hack is usually coded by a group of people who's jobs is to code hacks, and costs money to use (its a business for the coders)
2. These people's jobs are to find new ways to get past x-trap
3. X-Trap does stop these hacks, but it is constant game of cat-and-mouse, x-trap patches the hack, coders find a way to get around x-trap, x-trap patches THAT, etc...

another form of hacks is "public hacks" which are free and far more dangerous as they can be found in large numbers. VIP hacks exist in everygame, and public hacks are very common, but x-trap is doing MARVELOUS stopping the free, widespread hacks. Infact, CF has the least hacks out of any free online FPS i know of.
