For all of the videos in the DCUO Cheaters' Log series to see the cheating watch the videos in regular speed to learn how cheating in DCUO looks like in real time then pause the video at the beginning and use the scrubber to watch it frame by frame. The scrubber is the progress bar under the video where you see the pointer move and give the time stamp of the video, such as 0:23 for the twenty third second of the video clip. When the video is paused or stopped the scrubber doesn't move on its own.
You can manually move the scrubber with your mouse pointer and watch the video as you advance the scrubber frame by frame. You can stop moving the scrubber to see the frame the video is currently on and the time stamp is an indication of that. So for example in my text explanation I say "watch how the kick does damage in the combat log but there is no movement from the toon at frames 0:24 through 0:27" means use the scrubber on a paused video clip starting at the twenty fourth second frame and then manually move it to about the twenty eighth second frame to see what I explained in the video clip. You can also click the Full Screen button on the far right bottom part of the video to see it full screen and get a better look. The scrubber is still at the bottom of the video clip in Full Screen mode, you just have to mouse over it to see and use it.
This way you can slow down the video and see things you couldn't catch in real time by just being cheated on because it happens too fast for the eye to catch. I try to keep my combat log open so you can catch what is going on screen and what the game is recording at that moment in the combat log, such as multiple attacks and massive amounts of damage from a character that on screen isn't even moving or starting their attack yet. This is obviously cheating and the use of speed hacks; its about time the enablers of this shut up their comments.
The most common forms of this are high damage numbers from cheaters while they take low damage themselves all the time. Its usually a numeric multiplier and dividing factor that is just a mathematical hack into a file. The other thing is all the red numbers of damage being hit on the legit toon and how effects such as stuns and knock ups are always in play for the cheater on the legit player but hardly at all or not at all from the legit player to the cheater. Another thing is the roll away run away hack that cheaters use to roll away twice and gain full out of combat speed and health/power regeneration immediately taking themselves out of attack range right before being knocked out. These are all hacks done by people who can't play the game, all pvp in this game is illegitimate until this is removed from DCUO. This is all very clear when seen it frame by frame on these videos.
Each post I'll do will go into a different session of cheats being done with an explanation of the cheats at a particular timestamp of that video clip. To see it yourself use the scrubber and watch the time stamps of the video clip being talked about frame by frame by manually moving the scrubber at a speed at which you can clearly see what is being talked about. Comments from legit players are welcome but any cheating enabler and cheater comments will be removed. This blog series is all about bringing legitimacy to PvP in DCUO, its a place for legit players to talk, watch, learn, confirm, and get together to clean up this game. All comments that want to enable the cheating by dismissing it and get in the way of the legit players cleaning up this game are trash.
These are my first videos on it, in the future I'll have better examples with my combat log always open to catch the cheating as it is logged by the game. I'll also post base test examples of legit things such as my damage out with my weapons to show you the difference between what happens in a cheat fest and when cheats are not being used. Other videos will show equipment of both parties so the "better gear" excuse for cheating is done away with. But these first series of videos shows enough about the cheating that gets the ball rolling. Especially using the scrubber on the paused video and watching it frame by frame and reading the combat log as well as watching what is happening on screen gives undeniable evidence of the cheating.
Other things to watch are how much ground a sped up character covers in a short amount of time, you can watch the match clock on the upper part of the screen in the middle. You can sometimes also catch things like them turning on switches immediately without even stopping by the switch for more than a second and how fast their respawn timer over their knocked out toons expires and how fast they respawn and are back fighting at a node, among other things.
The biggest giveaway and indication of speed hacking that is easiest to spot is the respawn timer/switch that is over the cheater's knocked out toon, it will tick down much faster than a legit player's switch and the cheater's toon will disappear and respawn with the ticker at about 25% done usually depending on the speed hacker's settings, never will it wait to tick down to 0 before the cheater's toon disappears and respawns. This is how cheaters win in places like Arkham Asylum Legends where getting the nodes quickly and often wins the match, because as you knock them out they just quickly respawn much faster than legit players and run to the nearest node and capture it much faster than the legit players do. This is how cheaters steal Marks of Conquest from legit players all the time in this game and SOE needs to stop pretending it isn't as bad as it is and quarantine these cheats.
