Cheaters are here in full

Out of my last ten games I’ve come across three cheaters. All using modded controllers. All rapid firing BR’s in ranked games. I’m talking two BR shots for everyone of mine or my teammates.

I understand that cheating is just a way of life with full blowen PC mods and with modded controllers becoming the most common. But this game need’s a kernel level anti-cheat as well as an anti cheat to combat modded controllers ASAP. I do not want to see Halo become like call of duty. We also need an in-game report system.

I dont want an in game report because from what I’ve seen is that it does nothing. This game needs some anti-cheat on it for sure though. Or at least spartan OPs until it happens.

ms and 343i are going to ruin themselves. It is the biggest joke that console cannot turn off the dam cross play. MS did a good job but it just shows how useless the manager of the Multiplayer department is.
WE DONT WANT CROSS PLAY UNTIL THERE IS NO CHANCE TO MEET CHEATERS!

Heck to the no on kernel anti-cheat. Too invasive for a video game. Valorant kinda proved this is a bad idea that don’t even prevent cheating.

Unfortunately modded controllers work on console as well. It’s not just a PC issue. In fact modded controllers are the top selling form of cheat. And have been nice Warzone came out on CoD.

It’s not cheating, it’s a glitch.

How do you know it was a pc player with a controller mod?..You dont!.
Also there are controller mods for consoles

First, you can tell if it’s a PC player when you go to view profile and there is no option to open the Xbox profile. That means they are playing the steam version of the game.
Secondly, I never said it was a PC player.
Third, I just mentioned above that there is controller mods for console.

The double shot is a glitch, not a mod.

That’s at least something easier to counter on a software level as input speed and timing restrictions can be set. There comes a point in both of those categories where it’s impossible for a human to react at those levels.

You are naive to think people don’t use modded controllers for Xbox too.

Well thankfully I have a friend who reviews different types of tech on YouTube and he happens to have a modded controller and we did a custom game test. What I’ve been seeing is definitely more in line with a modded controller then a glitch based off the test we ran.

Where did I say this? If you read my post you’ll notice I say modded controllers are on console as well.

There are more and more public press articles (game news, tech news sites, etc.) about the cheating situation with Infinite… :cry:

Hope it gets addressed soon.

Said it before crossplay is terrible and I don’t know why game companies push this out so much. There is no option to turn it off yet and if you can turn off crossplay you get punished with longer search times

The fact that something is not 100% cheat proof does not mean that it is not working.

Also, the Valorant kernel app was not an inconvenience for me. It is a gaming PC, I don’t mind it having anti-cheat software installed if that gives me fewer cheaters online.

I’m fine with waiting a little bit longer in a lobby, as long as I can decide what’s important to me as Xbox player…

343 pretty much has to address all of these issues by the end of today or tommorow and do some emergency changes to the shop and battle pass progression while they prepare the large scale changes needed. Their pile of -Yoink!- just keeps growing at this point and won’t stop till they address everything and start to act on it.

That is why I only play Custom Games 99% of the time. At least if I am hosting I can Ban Morons for cheating. You can’t in Social Games.

Cheating is just a way of life in Halo w/ the absolutely overtuned AA on controller anyway. Not really sure what the problem is.

There is a major difference between high amounts of aim assist and wall hacking, aim botting, and moded controllers.
