How we can deal with hackers

Hackers have as of late, overrun CrossFire. They are in massive numbers, and nobody ever seems to want to kick them. It's become quite a problem.

Here are the suggestions that will destroy the hack problem and the problem with those who defend the hackers.

1) Remove the West Coast Server
~ While I enjoy the ping benefits I get from playing on the West Coast Server, as I live on the West Coast. I understand that this server is the root of all the hacking, and it must be deleted.

2) Remove the current kick vote system, enable user-moderated rooms.
~ In these rooms, the room host would have control over kicking, and be able to kick any hack or anyone defending a hack. With the current kick vote system, nobody ever kicks the hacks, and even when people do, everyone who defends the hacks just F12's so nothing is passed

3) Update the anti-hack software
~ The current anti-hack software truly sucks, upgrade it to something more advanced.

  • 1.The west coast server has nothing to do with haking...

    2.That would leave it to on persn, either being for it or not at all. Bad.

    3.X-Trap is fine compared the Game Gaurd.

    Agree With #1
  • Totally agree with your post except removing the Westcoast server 'as it is the root of all hacking' (as i never play there).
  • there is no point in removing west coast server... if u remove it, there will still be the same amount of hakers -_-, but in different servers, think about it...

    Yeah dude this guy is all right. Just report dude.

    reporting is wayyy to complicated to be worth it. i say "to be worth it" because 3/4ths of the ppl who get reported and DO hack arnt banned.
  • X trap or gameguard either way my chams work...

    *Facepalm*

    1. They'd move to another server.

    2. The user would more than likely vote out people who were better than him/herself, in order to get ACE.

    3. Though X-Trap isn't the best anti-hack system, it's FAR from the worst.

    1). Too much loss. We might need server to play. They need it to be populated.
    2). The only weapon non******** can be used to defend hackers is vote kick, even though sometimes abused, better than just run away from hacked room. When kick right are assigned to a single player, the misjudgement will happen more frequently. To my experience, more kick by room manager than be vote kicked. And most of time, only 1 player swear that you are hacking based on what they feel, this, once have influenced on host, will create misjudgement. -- Remember, the player claims that you are cheating normally on the other side. They can not even stand side by side to watch what you did before they claim.
    Vote kick can be enforced by force vote -- which will bring everyone in the game to vote. Vote kick also can be improved by weighted vote, with higher experience player has more weight, same side player has more weight. Hacker will bother both side of the game.
    3). Warrock uses punkbuster, CS1.6 has anti-hack, and Deltaforce has dffav, problem is, hackers are always there. In fact, hackers in CF are much less than warrock and cs1.6. That might be a result of less popularity, but I believe the frequent update in X-trap is a good sign.
  • Just Wait - When the Time is Come the Hackers will get a giant Fist in their faces XD

    But when you find a decent host, that you have come to know is reasonable you know your safe and hes fair to others (perfect), you get a crappy host then you won't join his room again.

    Right now every room is basically crappy and you don't know if hackers would get kicked, glitchers or if good players will get kicked.
  • there is a third option of dealing with hackers reporting the links,websites and others to z8games.then we can finally defeat them.after that patch the hacks and then bann the hackers.then after z8games can search for the users who will search for the websites if there are some of new hacks.i think then it will be less hackers. :)
