I know already what you are thinking. “dude you suck, no one is hacking”
Hear me out.
Unless the game is broken, there are serious problems that need to be addressed.
3 days ago I ranked at Diamond 1. Game play was extremely challenging but rewarding none the less. I was still making plays, winning gun fights, doing everything I could to win.
I was progressively making rank, meaning I was still growing in my rank.
Yesterday I got on, and it seemed as though I was in a completely different league. I would walk around corners and be completely decimated by the enemy team within a second. I figured they were really good at communicating and that they were ready for me. It kept happening. Game after game over the last 2 days. Instant obliteration when I tried to get into the fight.
It finally hit me. I’m not actually doing anything different from when I was playing 3 days ago. I’ve been getting matched with people who are either aim botting, walling, or some other variation of hacking. There is no other explanation. I’ve been playing Halo since it originally released as Combat Evolved. I’m not some self-proclaimed god at the game or that any legit player in higher ranks than me aren’t good. I’m not making the claim that legit good players are just playing.
I have legit lost 99% of my last 15 ranked matches. I was getting 20+ kills a game to now struggling to get 10. It makes absolutely no sense to me other than this game is easy to hack and a lot of players are doing it.
It’s sad because I love this game but I simply cannot play it anymore because of this.
