Aimbotter!

[PinkRobot]

We know making an aimbot for Nexuiz is pretty easy if the person knows what to do. This is partly due because of the openness of Nexuiz. The devs know this. We already had an aimbotter on the PB Nexuiz server about half a year ago. The person involved came onto our forum when asked and explained the aimbot, what it did. One of the devs came onto our forum as well and had a lengthy discussion with the aimbot creator about the technical details, I had no idea what they were talking about I stopped playing minsta completely ever since the aimbotter was on our server.

Removing hitscan weapons is not the solution, I don't think they should be removed from the game. Of course aimbotting is the death of a gamemode like minsta but how far will a bad player who makes up for his lack of skills by using an aimbot go against an allround player who is also a crack at movement, prediction, etc.

Let's face it, playing on a map like Farewell with 16 players in a DM or minsta game is pretty stupid anyway. So maybe people concerned with aimbotters should move more towards non-public servers with players they know and trust [trust that they will own you without cheats ]. I can not !promote the #nexuiz.pickup channel enough !

If you play on a public server nowadays you still have more chance of being cursed at [i hate this, why do people... kids... do that?] then to encounter an aimbotter

I second PeanutButter.
Nexuiz imho, gone mature. In the way,that it's populratity and fame has reached the masses.
One year ago "public" was not the same like today: Nexuiz was mostly played by those, who you meet day by day here on the forum. A very friendly and close community. Now I hardy see them playing on the servers.
Why? Becouse "public" is not that fun anymore we have got used to. There are a lot of players, who never talk a beep ever while playing, not even teamsays.
This is not bad at all, don't get me wrong. But it's different from what "we" think is good.
Conclusion: if you play on public, you can be sure that not all players will know what to do, and you'll find cheaters too once in a while. If you want more, "serious" play (serious, but VERY fun), come to #nexuiz.pickup @ irc.quakenet.org . I can make you sure, you won't fid any cheaters there

gah, beh.
Toxic (or anyone pro) can't aim as fast as an aimbot (instant turning).
The pros can hit about 60% with the rail on a good match, but still, they can't aim so instantly like this aimbotter does.

storm was accurate too (hugarian quake3 player)

I think the key is more admin to deal with situations. But as we know things can't be administrated 24/7

I think we should ban the two most prolific aimbotter's. Morfar and Kojak aka kojn.
