[QUOTE=LittleDogX;35512471]I love how people just instantly dismiss hacks in Tribes games when it's completely possible to have aimbots that can lead.

Doesn't look that good, most of the lead shots are obviously cherry picked v.s. the practise dummies which have set paths, and during real games the bot even misses shots.

That's because it predicts and leads he shot based on the targets and your current velocity. Obviously if someone changes direction after you fire it will miss, that's what happens any time you lead a shot and what you're shooting at changes direction even without hacks. It can't predict what people are going to do in 0.5 seconds, it predicts based on that one exact moment you fire. When you fire your spinfusor at someone that's running from you, do you know exactly when they're going to use/release their jetpack? Or if they're suddenly going to stop skiing? Neither does the aimbot. It's only going off the information it's given. Even in the video, it shows him hitting people that are flying that aren't bots even at a range. Even then, that's not the point. The point is many people go "no hacks in projectile games" when it's completely possible to do so.

Oh yeah, of course there's hacks for projectile based games, I told him that afterwards myself, was just stating that the hack itself isn't all it's cracked up to be.
i like how this game doesn't record deaths so i don't feel bad about sucking.

The hacks suck. Really bad. It's a lot easier to predict people with your brain - they usually go for the hills in certain ways that an aimbot isn't going to be able to calculate. If you just tap a direction key it'll completely throw off its prediction in the same way it does with the turret - your actual movement deviates only slightly but your projected path changes massively in that split second.
Hi-Rez also appear to have a pretty solid statistic based anti cheat - I've seen hackers on the "noob island" but never anywhere else which suggests they're getting banned before they get into the regular servers.

youre joking right?
[QUOTE=Chirno;35514239]youre joking right?[/QUOTE]
It's easier to predict a mindless object in space with a computer but it's easier to judge what an actual human being might do if you're an actual human being.
[QUOTE=Chirno;35514239]youre joking right?[/QUOTE]
I wish I had a video that showed how bad the aimbots in the game were. If they are using an automatic any amount of strafing throws it off. Because the game uses projectiles, aimbots aren't as good. The same thing is with the aimbots in Global Agenda. The fact you can't one-shot people with any hitscan weapons helps too.
I would be more worried about ESP in this game.

Isn't this picture really old? I'm pretty sure one of the first pictures of Tribes Ascend looked like this. Why does the armor look like cloth? Certainly doesn't look like heavy armor.
Somethin aint right.
I grabbed it from a recent news article that hirez tweeted so I just assumed it was new.
Then again they did have an image of bella omega on it so I'm not sure.

Maybe it's a new doombringer skin too
I wonder what weapons the raider will be getting
So the official release is in two days right?

It has mines and a shield in the lower left.
