  • Yep, I lost interest when my silver bar got hacked last week.

    I had to make a new account, well I am so sick of joining a game and the 1st thing you see is a hacker!!

    GIVE ME STRENGTH!

    I'm thinking of getting Black Shot it's a gme like CF just better graphics :)
  • Eh, i'm going to wait for the Halloween patch. If its not patched by then ill probably quit.
  • I might quit it depends.... i hope Halloween patch fixes every and stops hackers... it is stupid how easily people can get hacks.... z8games could google "crossfire hacks" and probably find 10 websites they could sue for having crossfire hacks on them... z8games should really be doing better......
  • So many chammers

    ive been playing for more than a year in this game.Thought it was the best game i ever played loved it. NOw a year later and new manegment all is lost. yes it a free game. But many pay for zp like me. so it not free. i pay for extra stuff guns exp + so on. if chammers are in the game they take away from my zp things i bought. by killing me 1 shot. i hate to quit wile i in game but lately it the only way no 1 want to kik chammers so they just as bad and when we do vote they dont kik him or her so they just as bad as the chammers dont know what to do. xtrap is a joke fire them get some thing better do something

    TBH chammer's can't one-shot you.. :\

    This game has gotten pretty bad, almost as worse as the GameGaurd days. I wouldn't say half the people in a room are blatantly hacking, but one or two. I've been playing this game less and less, I go on for half an hour at most nowadays.
  • And reporting does no good.ive reported about 20 haks so far and as soon as i send rport in its closed.whats the good of haking report if they dont even read it?
  • But no, there's no solution.
    The only other 2 solutions, would be for Z8 games to GO AFTER the hack writers and SUE them for thousands of dollars (This would work if Z8 would get off their lazy butts and start DEFENDING their intellictual property), OR, to hunt down the people who cheat, chop off a few finger, and toss their computers in the trashcan. THAT would also work...too bad that's just a fantasy.
    Legal action takes very large amounts of money and very large amounts of time. Despite what baseless rumors people may start about Z8 and its profits, no actual information on that matter has been released to the public. The costs of maintaining the infrastructure required to run Crossfire are astronomical, both time and money-wise.
    Blizzard recently SUED some hack writers for a LOT of money, I think just this past week. And this wasn't even for a "game cheating" type of hack, either. If Z8 games would do HALF of what Blizzard does, this game would be the best alternative to CS:Source. But they won't....all they do is ban hackers, and the hackers make new accounts... IJJI sued (or tried to sue) the author of that *** hack. But that's pretty much the limit... these companies have a LOT of power to defend their IP, yet they refuse to use their power or something...and it has NOTHING to do with cost....
    Blizzard is undoubtedly the most powerful game developer in the world. Their resources completely dwarf Z8's. They're also developing games that sell at retail prices, and don't lend themselves to hacking in the first place. Not only do they inherently have a significantly smaller problem, they're much more equipped to deal with it.
    There's one more solution which I suggested YEARS ago, back on sleepywood forums:

    Ban/prevent ALL new registrations (NEW, not current) from using ANY free email provider and make registrations all manual acceptance. This would stop 90% of the hackers in their tracks, since they wouldn't be able to reregister. And since most of the hackers are stupid little kids, they wouldn't be able to keep getting new ISP emails...what excuse would they have to tell their parents?

    But it won't matter...no one will ever take any of my advice...so the battle with hackers will NEVER be won. It's pretty sad, actually...
    This would do much more harm than good. While this would stop a large portion of hackers, it would also stop huge quantities of legitimate players. Personally, I register almost every F2P game I play to a Gmail account, as do most people I know who play them. We've never hacked these games, and spend money on them. At a certain point it becomes more trouble than it's worth to shut out entire categories of people.

    There's no simple way to stop hacks. I see a lot of people on these forums acting like there's a cure-all magic bullet where you pull the trigger once and the hacking problem is solved permanently. This is not the case, and will never be the case. Z8 is not withholding this nonexistent magic bullet out of greed of laziness or because they're making or selling VIPs. We simply need to wait it out while the hacks get patched. Halloween is right around the corner.
  • I give up

    I've been playing CF since it started, but hacking has got so bad the game has become pointless. I'll rejoin when a patch comes up for Xtrap that actually prevents these sad losers.
  • good luck with stopping the hackers youd have to overhaul the whole game from the ground up ban the majority thats hacks (*cough*br's*cough*) and then probably rewrite half of their game code to make it less hackable

    also i like my friends suggestion to use multiple blocking software so hacks are even harder to find since they will really have a hard time trying to work past 3 differnt types of sucurity. i also tend to wonder if half these nubs havnt gotton a way to shut down their xtrap since no matter how many patches there are they always seem to have working hacks whether they vip or public
  • If things aren't fixed by the Halloween patch, I'll be taking a break for awhile. Sure there were some hacks before, but not this bad. like someone said, all free games tend to die eventually... although I know of some cash shop games that are quick to patch things like this, where I never even see the hackers.

    This is the first FPS game I really got into playing...it kept my interest for over a year. sad to see it go down ;_;
  • ya i agree it was a great game until it was ruined it makes you wanna chop off the hackers fingers lol you steal my kills and kdr i steal your fingers mwahahahaha
  • ill be busy playing fallout new vegas instead, see u guys after the halloween patch.

    This ^

    How you findin' the game so far?

    Seems a lil over-complicated, compared to Fallout 3, but still, pretty awesome.

    Hacker's are pushing it. I just ran into a speeder named "XtrapKiller" Seriously? Instead of a quit though, why don't we all move to a lesser server/channel and just do all password locked rooms? Pm the password around?
    I was looking at the echo 8 pass post earlier. I like the idea, but it might be too hard to communicate. Maybe we make vent channel for legits. Just invite people 1by1.

    Also, if we had perm game servers, then people we kicked would stay banned. We need ways to ban in-game.

    I would suggest making a central chat room on a commonly used program, like Xfire. That we would could access in-game and keep all info off the actual site if we so choice. Maybe a clan or a perm chat/voice room?

    A few people and I are actually working on this atm .. we will also have a xFire community and a Ventrilo

    We are discussing when and where... also who... it will be public.. but to a certain extent

    We will also have a UK community doing this as well

    The idea was just brought in to play yesterday US time .. and the wheels started rolling so to speak.. so expect something to happen this week :)

    it will take times, but hopefully we have a system like the Br's in Delta 9
  • That's it. I'm sick of it. All these utterly stupid posts exaggerating the situation with the hackers is driving me insane. I'm going to address this one.

    Ok,

    1. IN EVERY GAME THERE ARE NOT 50% OF HACKERS, I don't know what game type or what server you are playing in but there are never half a room of hackers in SnD, in the UK Servers. I haven't seen a hacker for the last 4 days, why? Because I'm not a ****ing idiot, I know hackers are in TDM, all they give a s**t about is kills, so go into an elimination or an SnD.

    2. There's something called friends. I never play in pubs nowadays without friends. Why? Because all I do is get shot in the ass. Now all these threads are formed by people who are finding this game frustrating yes? So make some friends and play with them! It's reassuring to know someone's watching your ass, and it's great to have a joke along the way.

    3. A lawsuit..... How old are you? Have you never played another game in your life... I'm not even talking about FPS anymore. Pokemon? That has ****ing hacks, so if you think any game is unhackable, your clearly the most naive, stubborn gamer alive.


    Just stop posting these useless threads. They're ****ing me off.

    i agree with you partly.. like 80%

    you play in UK server.. you guys have turks and other eastern EU countries, that do like to hack... but you guys don't get EVERY ONE like the NA servers do

    we get South Americans and Eastern EU hackers...... so there is A LOT of hackers in each room, no matter the mode...

    yes he did over exaggerate how many in each room...... there is anywhere from 1-6 in each mode, even SnD... in just about any server and channel that is NA

    Some times i get lucky and there is only 1

    but worse thing about the Br's and what not.. they do not vote kick or f11 ... a guy can be speed hacking and someone initiates a kick.. and none of them f11.... but if a guy is AFK.. well then EVERY ONE f11's lol its crazy








    oh and if these threads p1ss you off that much.. well get used to it, quit reading them, and quit posting on them ... simple as that... just ignore them... they will never go away... ive been here since right after Open Beta.. and has never changed
  • they promised to update their security :D

    thats why you REPORT the hackers and help get rid of them...

    I love it how you've exaggerated as much as the idiot that posted this thread.

    Racism, so what racism, that's life get used to it. Got a buddy at school couple years ago everyone gave him stick for being asian called him a ch*** etc. Be glad it's behind a monitor and you can run away from it.

    “Racism is man's gravest threat to man - the maximum of hatred for a minimum of reason.”
