Aimbots

We'll use "aimbots" (programs that automatically aim and shoot for us) or "wall hacks" (programs that allow you to see and even walk through walls) to gain every advantage in an online shooting game. ❋ Mia Consalvo (2006)

When I suggest that gameplay based on actual human skill is a social design way of reducing incentives to cheat, I get responses about aimbots; of course, by "real skill", I wasn't referring to the ability to click on a target, I was referring to things like leadership, tactical and strategic insight, initiative and creativity - precisely the things that are most human, and thus hardest to automate. ❋ Unknown (2005)

The reason things like aimbots work at all is because the server tells the client "this player's avatar is in such-and-such position"; for the good reason of, once your computer knows where someone is, it can draw them on the screen ... but it's that same data that the aimbot uses to know precisely where to point. ❋ Unknown (2010)

It is a shame though, once in a while I still play around with some old friends that still play, but even they find it fustrating now due to aimbots and wall hacks. ❋ Unknown (2009)
