Headless players on Team SWAT?

I’ve been playing a couple of high level SWAT games recently, and played two games where the events of the games were quite strange.
It appears there is slowly becoming an outbreak of modders. Because I’ve started seeing headless and armour-less players on team SWAT.

It wouldn’t be a big deal, apart from the fact that head shots do not register on them making the idea of swat pointless. I’m just bringing this to the attention of players and 343 and hope the issue can be resolved.

Sorry about the flash.

This was reported like 2-3 weeks back.
I thought this was fixed, huh…

I played one just earlier today. He had the SR130 emblem at SR29 aswell.

Yep, last week I ran into 8 of them but this hack has been in the game for 6+ weeks. Only thing you can do is report them and then do a player review. I primarily play SWAT when I’m in the game lobby I quickly scan the players to make sure no one’s cheating. If a hack comes in via JIP then I quit out.

I’ve seen this around a few times… :confused:

Also is that a katana/sword on his back or just an untextured weapon?

I’ve never noticed that, but from my guess it’s an floating knife that’s meant to be sticking out his armour.

I agree about the quiting out. I have been filing reports, but realistically, that won’t get them banned. which sucks.

Just fill out a report to Microsoft.They WILL ban them. And if anyone sees one of these cheaters, do the community a favor and REPORT TO MICROSOFT!

I had my first encounter with this a few days ago. He joined in not even two minutes into the match on my team.

I saw what it was, knew it was an exploit, and immediatly quit out. I wont let somthing like that give me a win, I’d rather loose horribly than be apart of someones cheating.

Did I report him? you bet your sweet… erm, never mind. Yes I did report him.

This has been around for a month, just like the rest of the problems in this game: not fixed.

It’s not just me with the issue then which I’m glad to see.

Its too easy to do, the only reason i havent done it myself is because there is a mini ban wave that hit, but it will continue, id advise you if you know how to do it…dont,…me personally i could care less, i think it makes swat more challenging IMO to be up against people with a slightly higher advantage…But dont do it…you will get banned

lol, yea doubting we will see any bans. These guys haven’t even made a decent playlist or fixed filesharing in two months, this game is a joke. They might get around to it in 2016

Never saw this blatant method of cheating or disregard for being caught when Bungie was running the show.

Yea we didn’t see a terrible playlist or ranking system, or lack of support, communication or updates from Bungie either. But 343 was sure quick to release some dlc to try and fatten their pockets

I loved Halo 2 and think H4 sucks compared to it but come on, Halo 2 had the most cheating I have ever seen. Stand-by, dummying, modding, out of map sniping.

We have been banning these players in waves, and all individuals that have utilized this mod as of this morning have been banned. Please continue reporting new cases as you see them (you can do this through the forum private messaging system or on Twitter), and we’ll handle each one appropriately. Thanks.

I was told we were supposed to report these cheaters via Xbox Live but I think a PM to a mod/admin would be a better alternative.

You can, but it would probably take longer.
