Theres seems to always be at least one guy on a marine team that has a 50/3 kill/death count while the next guy down has 14/12 at best. I tried everything I could think of, Silence, cloak, you can't surprise these people. They always know exactly where to aim when they run through a doorway to shoot you. before you even realize you need to run forward and bite. The only possible way to kill these people is to gang up 5 skulks and rush him and hopefully the last guy can kill him while hes reloading. If they ever get HMGs or shotguns and they rush your hive, you'll lose the game because of the spawn camp from them while everyone else shoots the hive. Its really easy to tell the skilled folks apart from the hackers though.
Here is a little test. All you gotta do is find a really good hiding spot in a semi heavy marine traffic zone and don't move, not even the mouse. Most marines simply run right underneath you. But the assumed cheater will nail you in a heartbeat as soon as he even goes close to you. Did I make a sound? Was I on MT? no, no
If the guy you think is cheating doesn't notice you, then you probably have a genuine awesome player. If they do notice you, then they are hacking.
One server I was on had a guy who could find me anywhere I was hiding, and I had cloak, wow. how blatant can it get?
We need VAC for NS already, I wish they would hurry. Whip them with the ban sticks.
Does Cheating Death work still? I haven't tried it yet since 3.0 final, How well does it work in fighting hacks?

they're just good, im guessing they also jump around like they're on crack? some people are just very good as marine, and hardly ever go alien because they can get massive kill/death ratios because skulks cant do nothing to them, even if the skulk manages to get up close.
cd doesnt help it
btw a "semi intelligent" wallhacker will run past you, aware of the fact that he has to check his six a few seconds afterwards <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

A genuine awesome player antisipates every possible location you may be hiding.
Getting 50 / 3 as marine it isn't hard in the publics just now.
This kind of accusation is a joke, happened to myself and two friends yestarday, just because we were top 3 on marines, we became : cheaters, noobs for spawn camping (2 shoot hive one covers... common practice : Its really very funny how many players expect you to allow them to kill you, simply because you are in the hive room), were skilless (as informed by a guy who's only means of killing was xeno).
I just don't believe you.
ta da!

Dude, just read this , including the IMAGES section.
These guys DO NOT cheat. Search for "teppla" on these forums, if you are not convinced.<a href='http://teppla.com/txt/' target='_blank'>SITE</a>
or problaly the pubs suck too much.
btw, if u dun want to see any cheaters, go do some single player games, or else just live with it.

People like that are funny.....calling you a noob because you are killing them......I still don't know how they work that out....
they're just good, im guessing they also jump around like they're on crack? some people are just very good as marine, and hardly ever go alien because they can get massive kill/death ratios because skulks cant do nothing to them, even if the skulk manages to get up close. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Quoted for truth as i know reeke can spot me when i have cloak and am in a dark corner! Basically you can train yourself to see the cloakers even in dark corners!
I know my admins banned reeke twice because they thought he was wall hacking or whatever and i have unbanned him twice and basically warned all my admins after the 2nd time!
Basically i told my them that if they don't have a demo for me to see then they can't ban someone who is supposidly cheating and if they do ban without the demo i will revoke their admin and as far as i know since then ppl like reeke haven't been banned yet.
Anyway im assuming its the same reeke! Sorry if u aint but it is a good example!

Thats not spawn camping in my books, i hate it when ppl accuse a team of 3 of spawn camping when 2 destroy structures and 1 covers, it is a good tactic. But if there was no one destroying structures then thats spawn camping!

Yeah G, I saw this 'Shockwave' guy on your servers the other day..... *Grin*
Golden - He's quite right. Just contact the admins of the server, but be aware I get that one for killing skulks above doorways all the time.
One little-used feature of the human brain is the memory. I often watch skulks go up above doorways, where they sit for 30-40 seconds, and I still <b>remember</b> watching them go up there when I shoot them. Skulks seem to assume you have goldfish memory, and forget anything not in your LOS. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
- Shockwave
imo the way rines can do this, it shows how its still marine > skulk even with the free upgrades, a decent rine can track celerty skulks, newbies STILL think there completly invisable when walking around cloaked, focus is useless for skulks after armour 1... silence/carpace are really the only upgrades that can help them in the early game.
and some rines can pretty much out-maneuver a skulk at close range.
What DarkFrost is true your accusations and way of thinking are a joke tbh.
Edit:
Depot - It's possible for the plugin to block the blips generated specifically by the Admin, so that Motion and SOF are no longer a concern.
sound?
also, an experienced marine will have a good idea of what is going on in the map, and what sections the aliens are most likley to be in due to starting hives, choke points etc.

Pm me regarding this - I'd be happy to share the plugin with you.

Join a good server.
I have played NS from release (I still suck but that is a different matter). I tend to stick to one or 2 servers (generaly LM) and I have seen one cheater (it was blatent cheating also) who was promptly banned when some one paged an admin in the chan.
