Where is the VAC?Or any other ANTI-CHEATER system?

Behind what kind of wall? How many?

The lascannon punches through boxes and "thin" walls, and the SLink perk will see through those too. Don't think it goes through multiple obstacles, or walls that are too thick.

I did some more research, because nothing ruins a match in quite as annoyingly a manner as aimbots, and all I could find was groups either completely ignoring the title or flat-out stating they won't be making one for this title.
mind you this could change depending on future popularity.

Lag is to blame I believe in all these "cheater" questions as many said before!
Sometimes you headshot the Raptor bastard with a lasgun point blank and it doesn't kill him cause he's no longer there, your just lagged!
many time I roll for cover and after 1 sec I die from a shot that came from the wall! it's jsut this stupid P2P policy effing our perceptions with the Lag of all Lags!

P2P has many vantages, no limit of rooms, no infrastructure to invest, but unfortunately worldwide internet is not homogeneous. I have a 35megabit connection in Brazil that can at most put me with 3 bars on really close servers!

So, there's no clipping or infinite health (I hope at least), but things that are not really there.

It's called, " That guy has a ♥♥♥♥ty internet conection! "

I'm sure there are cheaters and exploiters already. Its part and parcel of online gaming. I have not seen much that looked blatant but then I'm usually too busy respawning.

You see, Relic had dollar signs in their eyes and the consoles where like "lol ded servers? wat dat?" and relic got a bit silly as it nodded its head in agreement. The types of nods you only see when you are in the presence of large profit margins.

Sure they could have released dedicated servers, VAC security for them, and a set of server tools to make a large community stick to their game and ensuring all their future DLC content would be successful. But, they didn't.

The unlimited ammo and no reload cheat is rampant in the games I been in. I see Lascanons shoot with out reloading and then I let them kill me to get their loadout and I only get 4 shots with the extented ammo perk and fast reload, plus I get the reload grafic.

So yes they are out there just google Space Marine Trainers.

I don't know if it's just me but I was getting one-shot killed by someone with a lascannon tonight and it also appeared to go through the buildings and cover when it probably shouldn't have... Otherwise, I also copied the loadout and it took 2-3 hits on my end. Not to say it was a cheat, more likely just because I am still new and not as good as most playing.

Anyway, I noticed most playing had their ping in only 1-2 bars tonight in comparison to my connection which is nearly always full. So maybe that's why? That all said, I am still loving the game!

I must say im getting quite fed up of being killed by 1-3 bar connection players, when I have 5bars.
I have played many games where a good majority of the players are 5bars yet 1 or players float around the 1-3 bar terrority and ♥♥♥♥ face with lag kills.

Im actually wondering is some people out there are personally tampering with their connections of sorts, Ive come across players that are fine, you get the jump on them and hit them/ambush them from behind and its like all of a sudden they enter lag mode and kill you.

Dont know if its the randomness of P2P connections, bad net code or what?

I dont know but in games of old, people did have 3rd party programms to use to mess with their connection speeds to get an edge.

Damn lag is OP, needs nerfing!!!

Just because he was down the road from you doesn't mean the host of the game you were both connected too was.

can have 2 machines right beside each other but if the host is 3000 miles away the ping to each other with show as sucking even though 2 machines are side by side. It is the HOST that matters.

Saw my first one in an Exterminatus game recently. Some dude with a high rate-of-fire Melta and a ton of nades...
