To the Hacks who say 'I have headphones!'
We've all seen them. The hackers in GM that know exactly where the ghosts are, but who manage to not be kicked because they say "No hack! I'm using headphones!" This letter is for them:
Dear n00bs,
It's pretty obvious that you're hacking. No one is skilled enough to be able to insta-pinpoint from 30+ feet. Headshots on ghosts that are crouching just hurts you. So what lame-ass excuse do you give your teammates? "I have headphones." Let me tell you why that is complete BS....
Headphone's power: As much as we may wish there were headphones that would let you hear ghost's breath from anywhere on the map, they simply do not exist. You'd need several thousand dollars worth of MASSIVE speakers, which definitely would not fit on your head.
Your ears: Your ears are delicate instruments. They cannot handle extremely loud sounds.
Volume: IF you somehow found a pair of speakers that would let you hear very faint ghosts, they would shatter your eardrums, windows, monitor, and/or other things in your house as soon as someone:Also, assuming you're some kind of superbeing and survived that, the police would be very interested in the sounds coming from your house.
- Shot
- Threw a Nade
- Sent a radio message
- Blew up the C4
- Won the match
- Killed you
Background noise: No enviornment is TOTALLY silent. Even if it was, your teammates will be making plenty of noise. It is impossible to pick out ghost's breathing with all that noise.
Breath down: Regardless of it being "fair", some ghosts have it. It just makes all the above even truer.
So, enjoy that perma ban, and on your next account, don't say "I have headphones!"...

I use headphones myself, hence I know the limitations. I'm attacking the hacker's defense, not attacking headphone users or accusing people of hacking.Well I use headphones, does this qualify myself and others to become part of these so called hackers?

uR HILAROUS XD
Its actually sad, but most hackers will see this thread, and might even reply to it... as their main, ofc...
This should be stickied so new (legit) players understand that "I have headphones" is a lie.SerioslyWTF wrote: »Clap clap clap clapWell I use headphones, does this qualify myself and others to become part of these so called hackers?
Unless you can see invisible ghosts and/or wall, no. I use headphones myself, hence I know the limitations. I'm attacking the hacker's defense, not attacking headphone users or accusing people of hacking. -

No, but... how do they say it? "Guilty conscience"?"Your rears are delicate instruments. They cannot handle extremely loud sounds."
..That was a mistake right?
LOL too much spamming of the edit button.... but I guess it is true, in a way..... -

How am i so sure that that isn't your main acc huh? How am i so sure that you don't hack!?
This would be my only account.... which I've had for like 2 and 1/2 years. But no, you can't be sure I don't hack. Just like with any other member. Just like in real life. You don't go waltzing down the street and instinctively know who's robbed a bank before.... -

I'm barely on the forums. PLUS I was inactive for ~ a year, when my computer couldn't handle CF lag. Then I got a new one. If you look at my profile, I'm a gold bar lt. I double I'd be that rank on an alt, no? -

What happens if I told I was that bald guy from X-men? -

Fixed it for you.
Everyone has their own tactic. GM doesn´t have many hackers anymore. On a side note, the only hack I have seen so far is the speed hack, no other obvious hacks.
Maybe you should get a better headset, so that you can hear those ghosts from farther away?
Now stop your whining about people who play better. 1 simple rule: There is always someone better. You should accept this and move on. -

While I admit that's true, there is a point when they'd have to have headphones so loud that they'd do damage to their ears when anyone shot. Unless, of course, they have a silenced client. -
I hack.
When I tell people I have headphones, yes, I listen for breathe to pinpoint.
Most my long range shots are gamesense, glimmers of fail bhop, luck, other people reacting to breathe nearby the enemy, and also I CAN hear pretty far away.
****.. sometimes I'll hear you bhop/run away and guess where you're heading. Could be 30 seconds later before I decide to shoot where I think you have gone.
Stop being a little cry baby ***** and play another game. -

My headphones let me do a 10 straight 360 no scope golden head shot across the map at a ghost that is crouching down and has a no breath hack! -

No scopes tend to be luck anyways, no matter how far. Happening once MAYBE even twice is no proof of cheating.
Also, after your edit: No **** you can tell when people aimbot. That has nothing to do with headphones or walling.
Again, quit crying, go play another game. -
