Cheats can certainly ruin a game, but I don't know if I can get behind actually arresting the people that make them. Fine them, sure, but prison time for writing some code is hosed up.

I'm pretty sure the reason people are being arrested is because they're selling the cheats for money which is illegal AFAIK.

I can believe the pinpoint accuracy thing, I can have my reticle right on someone and still miss half the shots. Then I watch my deathcam and the guy I was shooting at was making the same shots at the same speed I was and hit every single one.

They're being arrested because Tencent is a sizeable part of the Chinese tech/gaming sector and therefore the CCP has an interest in them so when they signed on as a distributor PUBG got backing it wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

Tencent attaches great importance to the establishment of a special anti-plug-in team to collect plug-in production and sales leads in the investigation process. They also found that the group is making and selling games plug-ins for other Tencent games. With the assistance of the Tencent Keeper Program Security Team, Wuxi Jiangyin Police successfully arrested and smashed a number of plug-in production and sales groups such as "Mochizuki" and "Magic Soldier" on December 13, and all three core criminal suspects Arrested and confessed on the facts of the crime.

Dirty Google Translate posted:

According to the "Criminal Law" stipulates: "The crime of damaging the computer information system serious consequences, shall be sentenced to not more than five years in prison or criminal detention; the consequences are particularly serious, sentenced to five years or more imprisonment." Therefore, users involved in the production, dissemination of the game plug-in, will face the law severely punished.

Slowly starting to see more cheaters in FPP, though still somewhat rare. Ran into this wonderful dude who stalked my squad through walls and then killed us all instantly. Killcam didn't seem too suspicious but he was scary good so I looked up his stats.

https://pubg.op.gg/user/Top5DOALOX?server=na

76% headshot kill ratio in duos, 60% in squads, and 80% in solos. He must have a really good gaming chair.

What a world we live in where video game cheat developers are getting forcibly detained and having confessions beaten out of them by Chinese police.

Maybe if they included a pro-democracy/free-speech message into all of their cheat programs I'd feel more sympathy

All the leaderboards look like this, too. In NA you have a few people who have figured out that having 50-90% headshots is suspicious, but instead they have .5 heal kit uses per round and are doing over 1000 damage a round consistently.

It's super dumb, but I can't stop myself. This is just kind of how I do things.
Ran into some dudes a few times where I filled them full of bullets, from 10 to 20 feet away, blood going everywhere, and when I watched the death cam the game disagreed and I either never damaged them at all or got a shot into their pinky toe.

Just got kinda annoying.

FPP NA for reference.

And we ran into a few guys we're fairly certain were hacking but still nothing like TPP.

Has anyone experienced a weird delay between where your camera moves and when your character's movement actually follows? A friend of mine just started getting this problem. If he moves his mouse, the camera turns instantly, but he doesn't actually change direction for another second or two after. He tried reinstalling but no luck.

That sounds pretty wacky. Sometimes I double tap alt and get stuck in "free look" and get confused for a sec. That doesn't sound like the same issue though.

it would be real cool if they added an option to disable gamepads since I made the mistake of leaving a controller on and I couldn't figure out why the inventory & mouse movement were so utterly hosed until pressing tab at just the right distance from an item showed a different UI

I just started playing again yesterday after taking a break since even before the new map dropped and noticed this. Wasn't sure if this was normal or if something was fucky going on.

Your friend isn't alone in noticing, in any case.

even without checking that closely it was obvious fpp had hackers too because you'd see choco with a realistic really good player kda of 6-7ish and then you'd see several 20+ players at the top of the leaderboard which are numbers you only saw when 30-40 people in each match were afking for crates.

I had that problem before 1.0 and I have no idea when I stopped having it. It felt like my character was running on ice. I fixed it by not playing PUBG for a month and uninstalling it and deleting the /TSLGame appdata folder, or maybe it just fixed itself magically.

Notably I didn't have this problem when I first started playing, it only showed up after a patch and isn't there for me now.

Back in the day when people played Action Half-Life there was this clan called BORG that trolled people a lot. So I guessed the password to one of their ICQ accounts and from there found out they had a file server which had a bunch of the default models, but spiked so that big red lines would stick through walls and poo poo. Essentially a ghetto wall hack. I distributed them to everyone to use against them. Those were good times.
