<div class="IPBDescription">Hmmm...</div>How hard is it to see a cloaked alien? Because earlier, I was a cloaked Gorg, and all of the sudden this marine popped out around the corner and killed me in like 2 seconds with a LMG. There's no way he could have seen me before hand, and he killed me twice while I was cloaked. Kind of makes cloaking pointless if he has some kind of wallhack.

the only thing aliens are good for is killing
It is the same feature like the Com Sat in Starcraft. Somehow there are many similarities to Starcraft. The Skulks look exactly like Zerglings and even some of the sounds seem to be from Starcraft-
I myself was playing marine and the music went completely spooky just before turning a corner. I was kind of dominated by fear and did it walking and noticed that there was a cloaked Fade looking at me behind a half-height obstacle, waiting for me to aproach so he could do a flawless attack on me. (He didn't notice that I didn't have heavy armor and my weapon was a LMG <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->) Anyway, I bet he was surprised when I fired at him, he he he!!! <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo--> It would feel good if he didn't manage to kill me... But he did anyway, jumped on me and slashed me apart... But he was kind to tell me that I had left him only with 23 HP <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
So all I needed was or an armor to live just a bit longer so my bullets killed him, OR a HMG so my bullets killed him lot faster so he couldn't even jump on me <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->
Damn you paranoids... Forget Counter-Strike! Forget cheaters!
I might have been wrong though.
Plus I was an onos and cloaked level 3 in the middle of a marine establishment, like 3-4 marines walked past me and didnt understand why they couldn't move where I was, I really doubt they could see me at all.
However, yes, a single scanner sweep will reveal cloaked aliens. Also, if you had just moved to that location, motion tracking may have showed you moving there.
Also, I've been able to pick off cloaked aliens simply based on where the sound came from, so if you were just too loud, he might have had a very good idea of where you'd be.
a friend and i tested this ourselves on a game i created because we were suspicious of people in a server we were at, we personally, dont cheat.
until NS starts to use VAC, you can expect people to use hook hakcs such as joolz, and even after vac, some OpenGL hacks will work.
remember guys, this is still the HL engine.
That in itself means that a few cheaters using conventional cheats will find that they may have an advantage, but then again, your team mates won't back you up as you cheat, and when a pack of skulks/marines come along and slaughter you i think you'll really understnad that cheating really doesn't pay..
No point in marines cheating (i.e aimbot), as aliens don't have a 'head' to shoot for bonus damage, and you don't even get a personalised score! For aliens, your weak you can't do direct attacks and have to rely on ambushes or you are an onus and who needs cheats for that <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
The only cheat i can see of benefit is resource ones..
so that makes them ok?
example: <span style='color:red'>...</span> you newbies dunno what that is, it was one of the first mainstream hacks for CS, wallhack, aimbot and ballhack, all work great for NS.

you guys wont be so fast to write these cheats off it they are allowed to go on without intervention.
how would you like to be a level3 cloaked alien but the other guy sees a bright red diamond right over your head?

You seem to know a lot about cheats...
your point?

Duh. I'm accusing you of cheating. It's the only logical reason I said that.
lol. and i guess everyone at counter-hack.com cheats too?
and everyone at Valve hacks too...
and everyone at Nextwish.org cheats too...
and everyone at United Admins cheats too..
catch my drift yet?
heres your points:
1. makes cloak useless
2. you think all aimbots aim for head only?

No. Your drift didn't consist of a cheesy substance, so it didn't hold my attention for long.
Anyways, I was ####### around. People can cheat all they want. I have other games to play. *Thumbs up*

Roughly two days ago I updated my server list and filtered for servers running Valve's anti-cheat technology and none came up. None.
I suppose the biggest problem is that many of these cheaters are people who simply refuse to acknowledge that there are other human beings in the world besides himself, and those people want to have a good time while playing their games.

thats strange if you are filtering cs servers...
however if you are filtering NS servers, NS is not VAC-Compatible yet.
a cheater knows where to get cheats.
and you dont have to have the name of a cheat to google it, smartass.
