Relatively new to R6S but is there something really off about the game's latency? I get shot seemingly from around corners but in the replay the enemy will come fully out of cover and pop me. I usually get 3-40 ping so it seems weird.

Is it normal for the kill cam to show something totally different than what you see? I just got the game and keep getting the drop on guys when I think they're not looking, only to see that they were looking right at me on the kill cam. My one on one success rate is super low.

In time I've realized going slowly around corners is a death sentence. Just stand up and "slice the pie" quickly.

Lag compensation always works in favour of the guy with the higher ping. It doesn't matter how low your ping is, if you have some Australian or Russian in Kamchatka playing on the same server as you, it's very easy to get shot while you were already behind cover.

I like that one of the operator's backstories is that they started as a criminal. Because who isn't a criminal in Brazil these days? No sarcasm.

If the smoke crossbow bolts stick to operatives and cause the smoke to follow them around for the duration that'd be hilarious.

I feel like the interrogation part of her special will never get used. Even if she's more quiet, it's a feat to sneak up behind someone and not get blasted by their team.

Maybe, but this gamespot article says the interrogation of an enemy is what reveals people. WE SHALL SEE

EDIT: Oh I see what you're saying, I misunderstood. Yeah maybe there's a short-range reveal when it's active and then the interrogation is map-wide.

This one dude in this game was blatantly hacking, obviously using walls and an aimbot. On Consulate when he was on defense he also shot people on the roof, through the roof, from the top floor. This happened outside the office(not cubicles). This is a pretty serious exploit if not outright hacking.

I didn't record it sadly. I did record the last round of the game but I couldn't get any obvious hacking on video but he sure was.

The consulate vip office roof can be shot through but only from the inside and only in a couple locations. Somebody on the R6 reddit (ew) reported it a while back.

Also only ran into one really obvious hacker aimboting our team tonight.

This guy was like an artist with the hacks. He had some really well tuned ones. Not ones that perfectly track locked on to the forehead, more subtle poo poo where it tracked the chin area, and not completely locked either.

He started off in the first round blatantly tracking a running persons head through a wall(not destructible either), until that person showed up in a doorway. In the second round he used the above mentioned exploit to kill at least 2(conveniently using Pulse as a cover).
He also did a fair bit of just stopping and aiming at precisely the right corner for people to come around. Got me without tracking once! Toggling it up. Of course these kinds of kills don't look suspicious on their own most of the time.
Then in the last round he toggled off tracking through walls and limiting himself to plain view head tracking.

Here you can see the end of the last round, which is the only one I recorded, sadly.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGUwIbwKSxI
Note how he for the last kill is tracking the head of the recruit until the recruit gets behind the bomb where his viewpoint jumps down to chest level.


This guys name sound familiar so I assume he is a notorious hacker.
If you want to claim this guy isn't hacking I can only say that you didn't see the first rounds and there is no way you can convince me he legit.

I'm convinced there's some special kind of hack out there for some of these players. It's really subtle but if you look hard enough you can see that they track your general head area across the screen every time. Sometimes they jump straight to it from somewhere else so it's obviously toggleable. I've heard it's actually a combination of two hacks, "hand + mouse." Most of the high level players are probably using it.

It's pretty telling when people are cursor-tracking through solid walls instead of aiming at the corners in anticipation.

That video just shows he is a better player than those that think they can just run around with a 3 armor rook and not be heard from half across the map (at the start of the video). And everything else is also already selfexplaining if you pay attention to the video itself. I could write a timetable, I loving love timetables :haw:.

how do they work?
Ash is great because its completely normal to blow a hole in something from a distance and pop a few rounds into the breach immediately. Whenever I get a lucky kill because someone didn't duck fast enough accusations (hackusations?) fly.

Until they watch me flail about ineffectively for the rest of the round anyway.

The same guarantees you get from every other company that uses Battleye or any comparable anti-cheat software: none at all.

There's lot of utility in Ash and having 3 speed when you can see through walls.

What are y'all favorite operators when hacking?
