Cheating in online games - User Settings. Typically a player can change settings within a game to make it suit their play style and system. These alterations are generally not cheating, except in extreme circumstances. Changing the keyboard layout to make it easier to use is for example usually accepted. But issues such as changing in-game player models and textures, or modifying the brightness or gamma in order to make it easier to see in dark areas are sometimes borderline cheating. < ...

Cheating is defined as an act of deception, fraud, trickery, imposture, or imposition. Cheating characteristically is employed to create an unfair advantage, usually in one's own interest, and often at the expense of others. Cheating may imply the breaking of rules. The term "cheating" is less applicable to the breaking of laws, as illegal activities are referred to by specific legal terminology such as corruption. The term fraud carries over into law. People who have been cheated are also known to have been "screwed" or "screwed over ...

There are two subcategories of rifles; assault rifles and sniper rifles. The assault rifles are all fully automatic like the submachine guns, but there are are several key differences between them. Aside from the higher price, assault rifles do more damage (roughly double), pierce armor better, and can shoot through some objects. However, the most important difference is their accuracy. While submachine guns generally have a low recoil (crosshair does not move too much when spraying) and a high spread (bullets stray from the center of ...

This section describes the different types of cheats available for Counter-Strike, how they operate and how to tell when they are being used. While many single hacks may differ, they are always relatively simple, these simple hacks are however often combined into so called "multihacks" which usually include an aimbot, a wallhack and other features packaged in one handy executable. Some of these cheats are freely downloadable from a website, sometimes even advertised by the cheat in-game with or without the cheater noticing it. Other c ...

Counter-Strike equipment - MP5. Alternate name: K&M Submachine Gun The Heckler & Koch MP5 9mm Navy costs $1500 and has 30-round magazines of 9mm Parabellum ammo. It is one of four weapons in the game chambered in 9mm Parabellum (MP5, GLOCK 18, TMP and "Dualies"), dealing less damage than the Dualies, but more than the GLOCK and TMP. Because of this, as well as its decent accuracy and ease of control, it is one of the most popular weapons in the game, particularly in early rounds when its low price is a significant advantage. Its low recoil also makes it relat ...

Alternate name: ES M249 Para The Fabrique Nationale M249 5.56 PARA is the only machine gun and the most expensive item in the game.

Shotguns are reloaded one shell at a time and can be fired while reloading.

Unlike Half-Life, players' movement speeds in Counter-Strike are affected by the choice of weapon currently used. Knives and grenades are considered the lightest, followed by pistols, shotguns, submachine guns, rifles and finally the very heavy machine gun, with some exceptions, notably the Scout, which is the lightest. To take advantage of this variation, as well as the fact that weapons kept in reserve do not contribute to the total weight, p ...

Up to late 2000, it is safe to say that cheats were a more isolated, if annoying phenomenon, and only started to become such a raging problem for the community in as late as 2001. By late 2004, the battle against cheating seemed utterly lost, with the numbers of cheaters continuously increasing and anti-cheat utilities slowly giving up their uphill battle. The History of Cheating in Counter-Strike is as long as the history of Counter-Strike itself, as cheating has been with Counter-Strike from the very beginning i ...

Anti-cheats are programs designed to detect cheats and deal with cheaters. Anti-cheats come in two main forms, anti-cheat clients and server-side only anti-cheats. Anti-cheat clients usually have a server-side component which they authenticate with to enforce purity of the client. One downside to anti-cheat clients is that they have to be kept up to date by the player, which is tedious and can lead to players avoiding the servers which use the anti-cheat rather than dealing with the inconvenience of downloading it. A server-side only anti-ch ...

There is a lot of speculation over what would incline a player, or a clan, to start cheating in a computer game that is presumably fun to play. One of the most often heard assumptions is that cheaters do it as a type of compensation for low self esteem. Cheaters often fall into one of the following group or will cheat for a mixture of these reasons: Those who cheat in order to keep up These cheaters tend to be of low to middling skill, usually use publicly available hacks, and usually restrict themsel ...

Each player starts out with a combat Ka-bar knife; unlike the other weapons, the knife cannot be dropped. The knife has a fast, low-damage primary attack and a slow, high-damage secondary attack which can kill opponents with two stabs. Since version 1.6, both attacks inflict more damage when attacking an enemy in the back. Players are able to run faster with the knife equipped than with any primary weapon other than lighter submachine guns and the Scout sniper rifle. For this reason knives are often equipped when rushing. Knife kills do not ...

The beginning of the MMORPG genre can be traced back to non-graphical online Multi-User Dungeon (MUD) games such as MUD developed by Richard Bartle and Roy Trubshaw in 1978, and similar games developed around the same time for the PLATO System. MUDs (and later descendants such as MUSHes and MOOs) were wildly different in implementation from one another, but shared many basic interface elements such as using a telnet client to connect to a shared computer system (usually hosted by a university, sometimes without the knowledge of said system's ...

The beginning of the MMORPG genre can be traced back to non-graphical online Multi-User Dungeon (MUD) games such as those developed in the late-1970s for the PLATO System. Earlier games such as pedit5, dnd, Dungeon, orthanc, baradur, bnd and sorcery were multi-user games, but the players could not interact with one another. Subsequent games on PLATO including oubliette, avathar (later renamed avatar), emprise and moria allowed players to interact, including h ...

With the success of the MMORPG genre in recent years, several multiplayer games played in web browsers have also begun using the MMORPG moniker. This largely text-based sub-genre developed from old BBS games and pre-dates the modern idea of an MMORPG. Browser-based MMORPGs are usually simpler games than their stand-alone counterparts, typically involving turn-based play and simple strategies (e.g. "build a large army, then attack other players for gold"), though there are many interesting variations on the popular themes to be found. Many of ...
