First online Clan game experience

Jynx Bandit · 01-25-2005

Well, last night my clan figured we would give it our first shot as playing as a clan. What a mess.

We have a new clan consisting of 5 players. 3 bacon strips and 2 cookies. We were playing the Crossroads map against 7 captains and another bacon. We had 1 captain on our team and 2 bacons. It was a slaughter. I could not believe they cheating going on.

My group of guys are a very honest group when we play. We do not go out and search for cheats/glitches to take advantage of others.

We had guys killing from inside walls, floating about 10 feet (game dimensions) above the playing level just lighting people up. I even saw players that would be sitting in the crouch position, get a full clip from a IW right a point blank and still no kill.

The Captain on our team was cheating as well. He was killing people from inside a wall. We eventually voted him out once we figured out he was cheating.

I just want to know how you go about playing and learning when you do not know your opponets? I would like to get people who will play without cheating on us.

Are there any honest clans or players that would not mind playing Monday nights?

You have to expect everything. The clan could be all glitchers an it could suck or the clan could play fair you can't really tell what they are like till you play them. My opinion is if they glitch then you should glitch too because that may be the only way you can win.

Just leave them alone. My opinion is to just leave the room. Its their fault they can't shoot striaght, and have no tactics.

I've never seen anything you just described. I think too often people say that guys are cheating when they are just good. You did say you were playing against 7 captains with some bacon strips? I'd expect you guys to get slaughtered.. I'd expect you to blame them for cheating. Maybe your correct but I sincerely doubt it.

I've put hundreds of hours into this game and the worst I've seen was last week when this clans whole strategy on Frostfire was to get into the boxes as fast as possible. Other than that in all my playing time, all my clan wars, I have hardly seen a thing, rarely it's so blatant... There just not that many walls you can get into. And you can't walk on air. People probably say I cheat when I mow down 7 guys in one round. It seems whenever you lose a game most teams start whining about lag or cheating or whatever. Personally I think very little cheating goes on.

We are not concerned about being bad players. We do it for fun. But when we piggy backed our "captain" players they were doing things we had never seen before. The main thing was the "in the wall" trick. Basically, they were inside a wall by the SEALS spawn point. They can see the players and shoot them. The players cannont shoot them because they are protected by the walls. There was another glitch where he was o top of a roof that you can normally not access.

I can't explain the levitation trick or the invincible trick but it happened and it was not lag by any means.

They were straight up cheating. Their caln was [MA]. The guy that was on out team said he was from Canada. His name was something like "c oolz".

Ohh I believe you, especially if you saw people in the wall. That I know people can do. But I don't think there's any way to walk on air or be invincible. I just wanted to make sure you weren't coming up with excuses for losing... And that's no offense to you, everyone does it to some degree, myself included... new guys do it the most, that's all. If you keep having clan wars you should find the cheating to be pretty rare, especially with game battles. You know if you use game battles you can report cheaters.

What are game battles?

IMO, a very poorly led attempt to "liven" clanwars on socom. The refs are mostly under 15 years old, and are very very biased....Clan games looking for wars will do just fine thx,

If you are in a clan war....LAY OUT THE RULES BEFOREHAND, so you don't run into a big mess afterward, usually... [S-2] for instance, has:

NO 203

NO RPG

(sometimes) NO IW

and ALWAYS NO GLITCHING OR CHEATING, RESULTS IN AUTOMATIC WIN FOR OPPOSING TEAM.

That way if you ever do GB or even regular wars, you can win easily by default.

BTW, [S-2] is a good and honest clan and wars almost every night...
