Money and Hacks
I honestly don't see how the owners of Z8 can sleep at night, knowing that they are taking people's hard earned money, and not doing a thing to prevent the infestation of hackers. Most were so excited about the new patch in September, hoping it would curb the obvious hackers out there who use an aim-bot and chams. But since the release, there has not only been the normal scatterbrain cheaters, but now those that use the "speed" hack have come out in full force. I thought about purchasing some ZP, but since the game has become unbearable, I wouldn't dream of wasting my money on it. Of course it isn't just the hackers; it's also those that refuse to kick someone that is doing the deed. I guess like everything, you get what you pay for. I feel for the peeps that purchase ZP to try and enjoy the game.

Yes, as the above user said, the game is free. ZP is optional, but is recommended.
If many users buy ZP during this month, that will result in a patch, almost as if it was a
thank-you gift. Buying ZP will support the Community, as well as the game itself.
It's not Z8Games fault that hacks are being released it. Nor is it any other games fault for there being hacks. Every free first person shooter that you play will have hackers on it.
Don't give up on Z8Games. Not buying ZP will only lower the chances of a patch coming
up. You'll end up playing once there is another patch, so why not help the cause, rather
than just showing up afterwards, and using the Community.
It's honestly disgraceful that players are giving up, just because of an incident. If you
were a true player, you would attempt to support the company, correct? -

Correct!^^ -
If you really want to be mad at someone, how about the sites that provide these hacks? Everything that can be done by Z8 is being done. Fighting hacks in a free to play game is a never ending process. One hack gets patched, another one will be released the next day. The best we can do is to make sure that Xtrap is given the hacks in a timely manner so that they can add detections for them.
FYI with this last patch every single "player boxes" hack that were plaguing the game for so long have been rendered inoperable. Just because you don't see immediate results does not mean that everything in our power isn't being done to end this. -

Seriously? What if someone buys crates gets some timed guns or whatever you know then hacks like this crazy stuff break out like they have been and the guns are useless cause you got speed hacker in everyroom, or a 1 shot kill or walking threw walls.
At least when the walk threw wall hack was rampant when it got patched we were good for what felt like a few months. But then the 1 hit kill hack goes crazy gets patched to our relief only to have 2 days later a speed hack outbreak.
Support a company is one thing but not when this stuff is happening non-stop for what feels like over a month now, they are a buisness not a charity they should only get peoples support when they deserve it. -
I agree with giggles. The truth is that this game, along with almost ever free game and a few paid for games out there, THERE WILL BE HACKERS! get of that fact and just leave or play with friends, thats what I do. I mean, If we had something that was better (like punkbuster) as a hacking protection system, you would have to pay at least fifty bucks for the game (look at all the CoD games!). Fact is that theres gona be hackers and Z8 is trying there best.

Punkbuster only works well with dedicated servers... even then it regularly kicks me off COD4 -.-' -

No, I believe they use GameGaurd...? I only played this game for one day then quit.
If they did use PunkBuster, they would've been practically hack free. From all EA games I play, I've only seen one hacker, in BFH. He was walling and chamming. =\ -
Yeah I hate when it does taht Giggles. Happened 18 times when I played at my cousins house a few months ago, it was like WDF! Stupid things. Xtrap has only failed me once for CF and only DC me a few times on the same computer (It was being weird a while ago and tookk 20+ minutes to load). That was probably jsut a vista bug tho. :] Probably just a netgear bug.

To bad people are too bad to realize how to PLAY the game. Then again, more then half of the CF population has hacked (Thats about how much i think it is :P), one time or another, especially when the game was in the beta stages. I like how they swaped to xTrap from GG because GG just fails. Period. Does anyone know who makes xTrap? Anyways, xTrap has narrowed down the population of hackers way down (I would say to about one out of seven games I see one, half the time its the same kid) so thats good! Just be greatful for that.

zp pays for this game
If you want to call this a free game by all means do so.
but in the end its the people and players buying zp that pay for the constant
maintenance needed to keep the game up, as well as the servers
Server's are not cheap You know
these idiots that want to say stop QQ ing
have no idea how frustrating it is to see a game you enjoy
being haked because they are mainly the ones doing so with
third fourth fifth and up accounts
and pretending not to care
funny thing is they pay for the hacks as well
and that is why they want the people complaining about them to stop,
just as much as the players want them to stop hacking.
It is a never ending vicious circle and will probably never end until these
type of games get game mods instilled so they can clean house by ip
and mac addresses of the hacker's
Z8Games is responsible, because they run the server's collect the money from
the zp purchaser's.
They need to instill Game mods and be able to sit in a lobby and check out complaints
of hackers and be able to ban immediately by ip address or Mac address
that way they cant use a different login account to just log back in. -
Better than wasting our time reading the same old threads.So basically, this is a facebook and if the game doesn't work, oh well, we just need to be friends? Makes a lot of sense.
Also, it'd be better then moderators wasting their time having to read a whole thread, then close it.

I failedz... T.T
I liked the alternating cause it looked liked Christmas colors. You know, like on a tree or the leftovers in the bathroom after the xmas party...
I guess I'll just have to go to the normal brownish color scheme. TT.TT
