After playing Blacklight: Retribution, i am deeply concerned about hackers.
That game uses punkbuster, the same anti-cheat system that planetside uses.
I was in a server where at least 3 people where blatantly hacking. Others might have been too, but these guys where completely obvious.
Speed hacks, instant headshots across the map(with a full auto rifle), teleportation.
One guy was literally invisible to other players.
I mean it was bad, real bad.
Punkbuster has never been a powerful tool. Even valve had to create their own anti-cheat because punk buster did not suffice.
With the ability to just register and create a new account, i am deeply concerned that hackers will run rampant and ruin the experience.
