Hit detection has been the biggest turn off for me so annoying

This dude went 45-3 on TDM yesterday. Everyone else on their team had 15 or less. He was jumping around every corner hitting 100% headshots. He was also level 178 so they have been doing this shit this whole time the game has been out...

The fact that you don't get a notification if someone you reported got disciplined, there's no way to know if Ubisoft is actually doing anything about it. Seen 3-4 blatant cheaters, and many "god-like" players

i saw mans flying in the air, in my game like its Superman sum shit crazy

It's hard to enjoy this game with how rage inducing the hit registration is . I cNt stay on consistently

People are cheating like crazy across the board in every competitive game... Humanity is actually terrible and will actively ruin other peoples experiences because they find it gratifyiny its soo pathetic

At a minimum there are a LOT of controller dupers running around. No shot someone is going to jump , change directions multiple times in the air and still aim on a joystick it just physically ain't happening.

Only thing I've noticed that's pretty blatant is the matchmaking system. Quite literally 98.9% of my matches my team is usually gerber babys playing in a diffrent room than their TVs and the other team is full of high level sweats LITERALLY FIGHTING FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PLANET AND TRAINED RELENTLESSLY BY SAM FISHER/BIG BOSS THEMSELVES WHO WILL LITERALLY SWARM ANYONE WHO DARES THINK ABOUT MOVING THEIR CONTROLLERS. Havent noticed any cheaters, maybe some bad hit reg lobbys but idk about cheating. Wouldnt be surprised though.

50% of ranked is zen users who can jump shot around corners and hit every shot perfectly.

Ran into a wallhacker last week. He was running Deadsec (not Echelon) and would prefire me around corners EVERY time, even if I was ADS-walking slow as a turtle or standing still. Other people caught on too and we all agreed to report him after the match. Anyways, about 2/3 through the game I switched to the Phantoms riot shield and started pushing him with the shield and melee bashing him. He still would try to prefire me and then I'd run up and smash him with the shield. Shit was hilarious. Must've killed him 4 or 5 times like this, and one time he flat out ran away so I switched to my gun and shot him in the back. He finally got a kill on me when I didn't have my shield up toward the end of the match and teabagged me like nobody's business. Dude was SO MAD lol. He was also awful. My team almost won despite him cheating. Hopefully Ubi banned him.

Even without kill cams I can still tell their cheating,like how else do u jump from around the corner and automatically beam me,no tracker hero ect. I’m almost positive that’s why they didn’t add kill cams they knew since a lot of their player base was coming from cod ect they knew there were gonna be cheaters,this was a way to keep the game out of bad spotlight.

My biggest issue with the game is when I put half a clip in your back and you turn and kill me while I'm still shooting you. I always seem to die from less shots and I know it's not from headshots when it says I led the game in headshots.

People need to get out of the headspace of flying around the map kind of cheats. There are soft cheats now that aren’t picked up by the anti cheats. And they aren’t very expensive either. When someone has fast ads and they are using the lmg playing it like a sub class weapon, that is soft cheats. There’s mods that will give you no recoil, headshots, movement speed, rate of fire, ads speed.

I know I'm getting older and I'm not the same kid who waited at GameStop for the original Modern Warfare to drop, but I run into A LOT of questionable deaths here and there. In most cases I get around a 2.0 k/d (or a positive k/d in general even at a loss) with a decent objective score, so slightly above average player. I've ran into two blatant cheaters with a good amount of other players who seem to never miss a shot. I've flicked my mouse around on players who got the jump on me and killed them and using game sense I've been able to guess where players will be popping up at a few times. But there's some players who do make you wonder if they are cheating or not. It's a tricky situation and hopefully we get kill cams to catch players who unnaturally snap to players but mask it by snapping center mass instead of headshots.

Dumping half a clip into a sniper after the flinch nerf and still get sniped is crazy i report these guys because no matter how good u are at sniping you should miss atleast a few of those but these snipers in xdefiant doesn't seem have any drawbacks

In 2months, ive come across 3 blatant fly hacking cheaters, in the skybox killing the whole map

Ppl are cheating like crazy. Even on consoles. I have faced a guy who was smahing everyone in a lobby and in a few ocasions he was prefiring with a jump - head shot every single time. Keep in mind that he didnt have a clue where I am because I was watching him and every single time I was behind his back. And this is one of many players I have faced.

This generation of gamers are all garbage and want the easiest way out, out of everything. Whether its games or stuff irl because no one wants to earn anything. I've ran into a lot of cheaters on this game with a bunch of clips saved. Do I believe they're really banning players? Nah, every game company says they do and you still see the same player back on the game or they can just make another account. This is why modern gaming is so shit. Players now are all entitled and lazy, they don't want to learn anything or earn anything. Xdefiant basically took the dense COD crowd. They're good at talking crap online through the text chat or mics, but awful at playing the actual game. Also to add to your COD comment about them never fixing the servers, you're right, they do it cause they know they can get away with it and they will replace COD every year with another garbage one because these idiot players will consume it with no questions. And they will just keep taking money , rinse and repeat. Microsoft taking over didn't do anything and it wont do anything. All those studios Microsoft bought? they just got rid of them recently.

breaking news... nah.. not really... every game that allows cross play is full of cheaters... at this point, virtually every fps game is riddled with cheaters to the extent that theyre nigh unplayable..

I went from constanly top fraggin average 1-3 place overall lobby to now having abnormally constant negative games. It's been aggrevating honestly.

this game netcode hit reg is so fucking broken i cant ignore anymore im basically quiting til than , i cant stand having these gun fights that feel sometimes like im in hardcore mode where someone hops a corny and i dont even git the slightest chance to even react , to having gun fights feel way to fucking long , or im hitting of 6 clean shots and maybe miss one bullet snd i instanly die one i miss that once shot? im vexed man , behind walls and corners i cant i cant i cant anymore bro , 2 months and they cant really tighten up ?

It’s mainly the PC players that use K&M are the ones cheating

Installed this game yesterday and had fun but today this cheater joined, 60+ kills, 2-3 deaths, I'm uninstalling

I ran into one cheater since ive played, bro was just sniping everyone as soon as they came around a corner. Got about 90 kills and i saw on my death cam i kept it open to watch him bro was floating in the air and moving extremely fast

Just had one game and the guy was jumping round corners and one shotting people with the sniper rifle. Also what is going on with the game? My ping doesn't show and I am getting killed when I have run around cover, netcode is still not good.

I've ran into a couple bots that are just farming accounts to sell. they use some sort of soft aim lock to not get instabanned but it glitches out sometimes and they just shoot straight down at the floor.

I've given up on it to be fair between the cheaters and the netcode I'm not having fun playing it

Great vid loving the content and I agree with you in alot of your comments on the vid

on the right side of the screen when someone gets killed it shows if its head shots or body so if they hit every head shot all game then they are cheating

This game needs killcams to properly report cheaters

I stopped playing 2 weeks in because i had 7 games in just under 3 hours of gameplay that had blatant cheaters and 3 of those where even flying and speedhacking. This game is not that fun to me to deal with that kind of problems

The cheaters in ranked want the rewards they want that mp7 skin

I have run into 5-6 blatant cheaters in XD. Often times they have a full auto M16 and hit only headshots. One guy went 50-1 in TDM.

All online games suffer from cheater problems plain and simple

hows your m16 kitted

Id like to consider myself a decent casual. I play just for fun but still hold a 3kd. But when I go to rank, I run into kids who are hitting every shot an most of them all all heads. It is so toxic and I find it so corny that people do this

High FPS gives players an unfair advantage. Switched off v synce and turned down my setting to go from 60-120 fps. Used to get 1-6 kills and bottom of the leaderboard to 16-30 kills! Still a bit laggy as on older hardware, but the difference was silly.

1 week went I wrote this game has an issue, many told me I'm a cod fan or get better. Now we just got the devs admitting the server is not made for mp and pvp only MMO. Gamers who have over 20 yrs online gaming can just tell when there's a possible issue going on.

I only play mouse n keyboard and the cheaters seem way more frequent.. the fact some of them can hit level 60+ and avoid bans is insane

the thing is there are way more people doing it that you think because you can easily make it look like you arent cheating if your half smart

What's up man new listener here. I'ma go head and hit the box for ya too. I wanted to say nice job on the video. I agree you'll find cheaters anywhere they can be! In XD id say there's been maybe 3 or 4 times I thought to my self I think he's cheating. . Cronis I know they all got em. I love the game I've been with COD since they very beginning and now.. I haven't played COD since this dropped and why would I go back? I enjoy the experience way better. ALSO up till BO4 I was a 2 KD player always then all of sudden I'm not .. I go to XD and I'm a god again! COD plays you not the other way around! 💯👍 GG

I've seen a handful of videos on KZfaq of people showing you how to calibrate these devices called "Cronus Zen" that get rid of recoil and turn the aim assist way up. Idk how rampant it is by any means as the videos I've seen average a few hundred views, but there definitely are people in the game cheating in this way and likely others. Overall however i can say in my experience of close to 35 hours on pc, i haven't run into anyone who is obviously cheating with an unrealistic k/d or flying around or anything like that.

Competitive Gaming in general has a cheating problem. They should let these fools step onto a global stage to be revealed as a frauds they are. Would look great on a job interview

In Xdefiant, one player can flip the spawn. When looking at the mini map try staying in a vertical or horizontal alignment with your team. You're either on the far ends or center. The enemy is spawning across from you in the same format. You wanna move around diagonally, so you're looking up and inward or outward if your teammates are to your sides. That's how I avoid "back shots"

So I've recently came across a cheater. He was using his ability dome shield while having his gun out lol I actually have a clip of it if you really want to see. The only other items I've seen cheaters is Ranked seldom though.

Kind of off topic but a spider bot shouldn't be able to latch on to you when you're using your ultimate. That ability can possibly make or break your game and it's shitty that some corner dweller can just send this thing around a corner and basically get a free kill while your hard earned ultra is just wasted.

Nah, spawns work very well. Most people just don’t seem to understand how the rotation works. Spawns are based on two factors. Location of the objective and location of your teammates. Once you remember the spawn points on every map. It’s just the matter of keeping tabs on your teammates and the objective. Then proceeding to keep them locked into whatever angle they’ve spawned in until your teammates inevitably mess up the rotations.

I run into cheaters who beam me and random teammates instantly through out the entire match in unranked, its wild havent played much ranked

I’m number 4 on domination wins rn currently and most cheaters use mouse not controller fr fr💯

Just wondering how often you guys run into people who are clearly cheating in ranked? But played a kid. First round on Zone control goes 4-9. Second round, I noticed something was wrong, when he was on the complete other side of the map, and he’s the only one alive, and he somehow sees me when I’m behind cover, tracks me and snaps on to me, and jumps 180, and boom 4 headshots and I’m done. Then my teammates say hey he’s only hitting headshots. I’m dead before I could even hit my bumper. End of round 2 he’s 50-9, he’s a bronze one. pros would even go on a 46 kill streak in an objective mode. Let alone some who’s bronze one and magically gets inhuman aim after going 4-9. C’mon now Another one on Zone control literally had not taken A and B and somehow C showed up. Then they capture C without having taken A. Then while they’re capping D, game pauses. Says we lost and they got a 100%. They haven’t capped A, or E. Losing RP to clear cheaters is a kick in the nads

Everything on PC had a cheating problem.

Ive been playing online shooters since Socom on PS2. I know im not as good as i used to be, but there's just something unnatural about how good the majority of the players are that I run into compared to how I'm doing. Cheats or not, there's obviously some sort of illegitimate advantage a lot of these people have.

I jumped on today for 2 hours after not touching the game for a few days. My matches were like bot lobbies, I wasn't complaining though lol 😆

F2P in 2024 is a open invitation to cheat.

I turned off cross-play on PS5, let’s hope for the best.

cheating in ranked has already made people a lot of money getting an account to legend which has happened already it can then be sold for 300 dollars

Sorry to break it to you but 60% of the players in free games always cheat 😊

I was playing last night and this guy was clapping the lobbies with 40/50 kills, i got a couple matches with that person so it made me turn off after that…

I report them all the time, no clue if it helps.

i got the game. played 3 games. in 2 of them were cheaters siting in base and 1 shoting everyone. I alt f4 and uninstalled. not gonna bother with such

If your someone who plays competitive you can usually tell when someone is definitely cheating, we def need kill cams so we can catch and report these people I have straight up spin botting clips on some people

ITS BECOMING LIKE CALL OF DUTY. after season 1 release I am starting to notice things like shoot first and die.... and bullets not registering. My connection is excellent as I live next to the north american server and my hardware is mid tier. Im going to look up this code patent...

I try to give everyone the benefit of doubt because im not the best player. Now if youre blatant rage havking i report you, but if its just a bit fishy i normally give them the benefit of doubt. Now ill say i hadnt seen a lot of havkers until i played ranked play. It is just so blantant in there

I have only encountered 1 person that I know was cheating, and that was blatant cheats. We're talking walls and aimbot with an AK on the Mall map in a Dom game, sitting up at the B flag window spawn camping us in the park. The reason I know he was cheating is that he was shooting us through obstructed lines of sight perfectly, with an AK at that distance and not missing. He absolutely wasn't trying to hide it, or if he was, he didn't realize that he was making it blatantly obvious. That said, this happened back in the preseason, and to this day, he's the only one I've personally come across that I know without a shadow of a doubt was cheating. I've been suspicious of a few people since then, but without killcams, it's really hard to tell if someone is cheating when they aren't being blatant about it. I personally haven't played Ranked, and I refuse to play it until they get the "If you're dead when the match ends, you don't get any points" bug fixed, so I can't speak to the level of the cheating problem there, but from my experience in pubs, there aren't a lot of cheaters.

I have advance movement and still get tracked easily, even around corners I get shot right away. That's when you know players are cheating.

Something you should know if you haven't. CoD servers are bad on purpose only to the good players. This actually has been proven from how one of the SBMM mechanics works from the cod community. If you were bad at the game, you get smoother servers. But if you are good at the game, you'll get alot of packet bursts, rubber banding, ect ect. Infinity ward purposely made their SBMM for future CoD games to punish you for being too good at the game to "protect lower skill players from higher ones"

Got banned for toxicity. Dont even play with a headset or use chat. Uninstalled.

My first game of ranked we played someone who only hit headshots and had godmode and was basically unkillable

Welcome to the Asia server... It's a mess

I think there's less noobs on xdefiant because of lack of awareness of the game. And I think sweats are burnt out on COD looking for a different game. So the game population is unbalanced.

Definitely ran into like 3 aimbotters, at least 1 got banned live. I feel like 30% are ragehacking and 30% just play normal with wallhacks. Its super obvious when i have a normal game and when the enemies have walls or aimbot. P90 headshot me on a headglitch quicker than lvoa could kill. That being said the netcode aim assist and lack of killcams means who knows whats really going on or how common this stuff is.

A pro team I played with yesterday said they were being shat on by a high level player. and this high level player has a kd of 22. hmmmmm. cheaters be getting away with murder. I am in no way saying I am a good player. I only have a 3.2kd and the pro's I played with are 5.0--7.9kd. and even they said this person was cheating. so if cheaters are being caught. how The Fuck is a level 127 with a 22kd that is cheating still able to play? and we were playing ranked.

I’m level 160 I see cheaters after every other game. And they are not even hiding the cheats jus running with aimbot

Been playing since launch (around level 110) and I've seen only 1 blatant hacker.

You know fps games are completely ruined these days yes there’s games like valorant as you mentioned having the best anti cheat but not all games follow that example somethings gotta happen with all this cheating I really think with all the money these companies make they should start legal action against the companies/individuals making these cheats only matter of time before xdefient will be plagued with cheaters on all platforms shame really games got a lot of potential

Pick it up, play for a hour or 2 and get off. Game hitreg is ass. It's A good warmup game before you play something else.

Im taking a break for me cause i hot tured of other players holding each other's hand i mean come on so for now im not playing it cause honestly i don't trust other players in multyplayer ganes now

A lot of people have gotten better in season 1 all sudden 😂 compare to preseason, and they run rank to unlock the factions brah , it’s like Fortnite

I just played a match. Dominating 400-150 mid game, the team turns around 2 people def toggled and tried to beat us down. Still won even tho my team’s KD dropped cuz of the cheating but It could be 2 ppls big brothers took the wheel.

brotha please turn up ur fov

Yes the cheater is getting a lot I blocked them but I am still matching with them in the same lobby

Bad enough shots dont hit when you shoot in gun fights

Tell Mark Rubin to buff the RPK 😭😭

Xdefiant will have a player base problem if they don’t get it together. This season is terrible. Ranked is a joke they allow faction stacking and op weapons I’ll pass. Can’t wait for bo6

When you sliding around the map it’s pretty obvious your cheating

I promise you would be so much better if you up your field of view. The game moves to fast to be so “close to the camera” also, and seriously think about this..have you ever seen a VERY GOOD player that’s not at 115-120 fov? I’m not the greatest, but I do good more than most I get mvp probably 75% of the time if not more. It also looks like your DeadZones are either really high or you are on standard instead of reverse s-curve. Just based on how it looks when you are aiming. To me it looks like a good player that’s either putting themself at a disadvantage or doesn’t know better, just trying to help.

They have it so you can’t camp spawn this is not COD where people just spawn camp the whole time

You can spota cheater a mile away on this game. Its so obvious. It was a lot worse until I turned off crossplay. You still find low lifes on PS5 but not as often. Then too its the evolution of gaming and people are better now that the rare few back in the days. One time i was about to kill a xcheater and i got stuck in a re-load animation even though i never fired my weapon previously full clip The 2nd time same person it made me switch to my secondary right before i ads.

SVDKINDAOP is a cheater. The people who hardly die I figure are cheaters, even people who get a lot of kills die a lot. Probably no kill cam soon bc they used a MMO engine to make the game.

108hrs clocked in the game...have yet to see any hackers or cheating

Loved the Beta hate the game . If I have a great game 25-7 , the next few games the other team a 6 stack top player 80-2 like bruh then the movement inconsistent. One min I can move like COD next my player move like he in water

Haven't seen a single cheater so far been playing since day one on Xbox series X I'm level 100 at the moment....

Of course it does….anymore these days FPS games are eventually gonna house cheaters especially popular ones!

Cheating is a recognition that they suck at the game. Idk how cheaters find being so pathetic fun. Your a coward and admitting it with your actions. Smh so so sad they ruin games.

Too many people use Cronus Zen or whatever you call it. Really really sticky aim

Haven’t experienced any cheaters, must be in PC only lol, typical

Yeah well when everybody is around 20 kills and one dude gets like 40, 50 kills a round you can bet your ass something screams cheats!

This game is lousy with cheaters. It’s so lame bro I want to like this game so much but the cheaters ruin it. Take that cheating stuff back to warzone

Majority of the players are cheating smh

Another thing is i feel hit reg has took a huge shift for everyone? Like before season one, for me it was a struggle to kill someone and guns like ARs felt like crap compared to SMGs and everyone had the opposite reaction to this than me. Now hit reg feels so good and every gun everyone said was good actually feels good to use but now everyone else is struggling with the problems i had? I even seen a ttv sweat i couldnt touch before season 1 and now this season he can BARELY kill me in a gun battle? Somethings just off with all of this?...
