Cheating

Since the update I have discovered a couple of players who seem to be playing at a different speed to the rest of us. By default in arena they are running at the speed I would expect if they had used a boost req pack. They can also seem to fire their pistol faster than an smg and get so many head shots its unnatural. The guys accuracy was at over 80% yet he was only ranked Silver one. His k:d was very high and I could hardly do damage to him (even when he was one shot) Every pistol shot he took resulted in a head shot.
Is this cheating or just a glitch? I have had the game hang in the deploying screen several times, but this guy was hitting head shots even when side on, in fact he managed a 5 headshot streak with a pistol, without reloading. I reported him but doubt anything will happen.

I think you might just not be very good

Sounds like you have a terrible connection to XBL. Try resetting your modem/router.

But it was only the one playebr, not the whole team

Or maybe just not as good as an Onyx player smurfing and boosting in the Silver and Gold tiers. I used to think it was problem with the game. I’ve finally figuring out it’s just the way a lot of people play the game.

Video evidence would be great at this point. But even without it I would hope 343 has a team to look into these claims and if there are cheaters we need to stop them now and make an example. If these few hget away with it them more will think its OK and next thing you know its CoD or GTA all over again

Could be the servers as well. Welcome to my world as a high onyx ffa player who never gets a good connection due to being eu based but dumped on us servers with a horrible lag delay. :frowning:

Inform 343 in the support forum, tell them the game (with a link to the game stats on your waypoint profile) and just explain that you are concerned they might have abused a system. It could very well be servers, it could be he was a smurf and just wrecked everyone.
