What does it mean when someone in a game is hacking? When im playing online someone always says that someone is hacking. I assume that means that they are cheating with a aimbot or something..plz correct.

Well you have it about right. Hacking modding, whatever you wanna call it. But yes, when someone is called a hacker, it generally means he is using a cheat that gives him an advantage. Like aimbots, wire frame hack.

It usually means that the person is frustrated because he's getting slaughtered. I only get suspicious when someone has more then double the kills of everyone else on the server. I believe hacking and cheating exist but I don't think it's as rampent as everyone thinks. There are really good players out there.

Once apon a time in halo history there was a chance of a hacker in a server 1 out of ...alot!!!!!. Now most people use aimbots...some use auto duck as well. It is very risky to download this stuff... so many peoples computers r down the drain but other risk it just for a little advantage in a game

PS: If you ask me i think hackers r crazzzzzzzy and cheap...most of them r smart and reallllllly suck at halo

"That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what.

Now try how and why."

i once meleed a guy 15 times in the back after i unloaded an entire shotgun magazine into him at point blank range!
was he hacking?
or was it just really bad lag?
(i don't think its the latter because he bragged)

Just because someone is owning it up does not necessarily mean that they hack.

For instance... here is probably the best halo video ever created. This is all match footage from various leagues such as TWL and KW... and shows just how awsome someone can be.

It is impossible to have "g0d mode" in Halo PC online. This was probably just hella bad lag.

Its very rare you see some one in Halo hack... but when people frequently say they do it's most likely because they are awesome and aren't as good as them. And hasn't figured out how to use a pistol. You may hear the odd person go " aimbot! " Aimbot is a peice of software you can download and turn on when you are playing a game. But you can get easily caught with the new anti-hack...

Re: About meleeing a guy 15 times and shooting him point blank range.


I kind of see what ur talking about. But there could have been other factors contributing to that. For example, the game could have been a little laggy and maybe ur shots didn't go through because lag was distorting the shots. But other than lag the only explanation is hacking. But remember, Bungie is constantly monitoring these forums so be careful not to give any advice about hacking. When u or anyone posts a thread, ur IP Address (an electronic address about ur computer) is collected and they could use it to find out where u r. So be careful wut u say on the net.

You watch too much TV. Yes they can see your IP address but that is to identify if you are using aliases on the forums. The best they can do is find the general area your in and maybe your ISP but they can't pinpoint your house.

Just got a image of commandos in SWAT gear and "BUNGIE" stenciled on their backs. Breaking in someone's front door. "EVERYONE down!!" "Get down NOW!" "Where are the hacks!?" "We know there here"!

You probably aimed right on his body which is what you shouldn't be doing with any gun on a moving target. Or the connection was lost and everyone was running into walls when you unloaded on him.

I just went to some forum about how to mod halo and there was a thread that tells you how to make a mod that makes you like a gun on the floor and guns on the floor cannot be destoryed. the mod was called god mode.

There's a big difference between hacks and mods.

Shortcut:

Hacks are client sided and they run without the server knowing about them.
Mods are server sided, so all the clients are affected by them.
