I agree w/the NOOB. Cheating is not COOL at all.

isn't that what the OP just said? you're like just trying to find a way to beat on him when he admitted himself that it was no fun and that it was not COOL at all.

(but I do admit, it was neat jumping down in the water on Aztec 10-20 yards behind 4 of my teammates with FF on and getting those 6 headshots wtihout hitting even one of my teammates. :D

good for you?

I agree. Thats why I retired from Quake 3. And I was damn good. Just got tired of all the no talent clowns cheating to win. Everything from bots to config hacks. People like u suck.

Has it occurred to you that your lack of skill and otherwise has caused your inability to kill him? CS has gotten so pathetic to the point where no one can tell the difference between a world class player and a cheater that was teh ability to hide it half decently, but more importantly for that matter, no one cares to differentiate.

you try it one, telling yourself its just innocent fun, but is it really? then you find yourself mired in addiction with no way out, and eventually it ruins your life and you find yourself on a bridge over the tennessee river looking down and wondering what it all means

Please link me to this "better software" you are talking about.

It has been proven that NO 3RD PARTY anti-h4xing software will remove ALL of the cheaters.

No matter how many patches they create, the cheaters will come up with new ways to bypass them. The anti-h4xers will say "this is fvcking pointless" and give up.

Evidence?

Punkbuster.
Valve needs to kill OpenGL support, D3D works well enough now.

I quit because of cheaters too ... and because I played very badly ... :D ... but cheaters didn't allowed to me to better my gamming skills ... so I turned out to Return To Castle Wolfenstein ... not that there isn't cheaters there nowadays ... 'cause there is, but my skills are well suited to give them a hard time! I can die 3 times with a cheater in there, but each time I kill him I feel great ... :) (like 3 to 1 in proportion).

But I was planning to reinstall Counter Strike ... wasn't supposed the lattest version to be almost cheaters free? What's the current situation now?

Don't forget the fact that it is very common for someone to put a piece of code into some cheats that will read your registry and send your cd-key to the coder.

Punkbuster was offered to CS and Valve but like the boneheads they are, they turned it down. PB was at a crossroads and to prevent any further cheating they needed it to be installed at the game engine level. To me this is the biggest mistake that CS and Valve has ever made, in turn it was offered to Id Software and they could not believe it and jumped on it right away, they bought the entire thing, company and all. They included it in their game engine and to this day there is not one known cheat for RTCW.

>Valve needs to kill OpenGL support, D3D works well enough now.
>And your point is?

Coz most or all cheats come from OpenGL and allot less from D3D

>Hate it.. HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT!
>I hope those cheaters burn in hell.. really.
>ruins the game for everyone else. losers.

Actually you have cheats everywhere (or try to be) I say that they should just release CS with the cheat mod built in. The only reason there are more players in CS is because of the cheating, totally take out the cheats and the player base would drop hard.

>Cheaters like you are what made me quit that game. Congratulations.

Blaming cheaters is a waste of breath, If anyone here is to goto hell for sheer stupidity or to blame it's Gooseman and Valve for being absolute morons at allowing this to happen and not taking in PB's offer. Nice MOD but true morons when it comes to implementation. They know that everyone cheats but they are milking it for everything it has, they don't give a crap about players or the game at all. As long as there is a buck to be squeeezed they will never fix it.

Wrong.

The ONLY anti cheating software that WORKED came from Cheating Death. Cheating Death, if implemented by client and server, will protect everyone from a hacker. Problem is, very few people are reluctant to install yet another application JUST to play CS. Cheating Death doesn't blocks hacks, it prevents them from being turned on.

Cheating Death has been back for a couple of weeks now I believe. It only works on servers that does not have Valve's anti cheat enabled and it catches most of the cheats. I still know of at least 1 cheat that gets past it and 1 more that gets past but only with some modification. Still.. Cheating Death is probably the best anti cheat at the moment

No OpenGL also means no ports to other OSes, can't be good.
