There is almost no "real" exploit. 80% of 1 vs 1 are decided by connection + framerate.
Lag switching: It's unbelievable how many people think that you can lagswitch on a dedicated server. Anyway, you can't.
Modded Controllers: They exist, and there are many people using them. Still, it's not really that big exploit; there's nothing that you can't do manually.
KBM: here on Dust is awful, BUT if you use dedicated KB/M converter ( eagle eye for example) you may have an advantage over your enemies.
Boosting: it does exist, but boosters are usually quickly spotted, and by the way, if you go with the definition of "booster", almost 3/4 of Dust community is a booster. Still, it does "only" give you more SP at once.

-lag Switching is impossible in DUST 514 Here is kinda a breif explanation of a Lag switch ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gE-ihY_EG0
In Order for a lag switch to work... The entire way server hosting works would have to be changed.
However DUST's performance is largely ran off a select grouping of ports that pass through your ISP, Depending on how they have traffic setup and what ports are used for what... Certain ISP's can massively affect game performance even though you have amazing connection speeds.
-Modded controllers are a problem... The Limited Recoil and Bloom mechanics(Dynamic crosshairs) Are negated by a Turbo controller... Allowing guns to fire faster then would be possible from human interaction and without any recoil...
Mix this with how DUST's Hit detection works.. When crosshairs turn "Red" you pretty much have a GTA 5 90-100% accuracy rating.... Then add Aim assist in the mix keeping you locked on for longer periods of time and expanding the hitzone area...
And Modded controllers + Aim assist become ridiculous.....
Keyboard and mouse in DUST, Isn't a keyboard and mouse... It is an emulation and overlay of the DS3... So the mouse is emulating a joystick... They keyboard is emulating Pressing the D-pad buttons and X, Traingle etc....
This makes using a Mouse and Keyboard in a classical sense impossible...
With current Hit detection problems and DS3 having Aim assist... The KB/M has been made obsolete for nearly 2 years..
However this created a problem when they added Aim assist into DUST.....
CCP Knew that EVE online has a collection of hardcore PC gamers... And that these players would come to play DUST and want to play with a mouse and keyboard... They knew that players could just go buy a M&KB emulator then use Aim assist on Mouse and be ridiculously OP...
So CCP Balanced the peripherals.. Adding limitations on Mouse use while buffing the ability of the DS3.... To create an even playing field... Where buying a Mouse and Keyboard emulator made no difference then just plugging in your USB cables into your PS3...
However with the addition of Aim assist.... And terrible hit detection that exists on Mouse... Players have gone out and bought a KB&M emulator and are now using a Mouse with DUST's DS3's Aim assist and hit detection buffs... ---> http://xim4.com/
People use the Emulator with Destiny.. And with that Aim assist... -----> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ips9qF3CYpg
-Boosting is bullshit.... The average player has never even seen someone do this. It has been known to happen... But when someone submits a ticket to CCP.... It doesn't goto a CCP Shanghai developer... It goes to a CCP GM that works with the tranquility server cluster everyday.... They will take action against players quickly and swiftly for this. |
