how good does this anti-cheat work for a MP server if I were to run it, it claims that players cant use the SP cheats, but I see people are using an invincible cheat, godmode, etc..etc..

Would be nice if they implemented range/wind adjustments on the sniper scope...that's how it REALLY was. That is what makes sniping a special skill.

Many people think they are cool ass snipers because they can aim a reticle at a head with 8x zoom. That ain't the basic sniper idea. If they would have to calculte for range, wind and lead you would hardly see anyone sniping.

range/wind adjustment?

hah if you think snipers in ww2 did all that during combat youre high. in ww2 there was no sniper schools per se. a "sniper" in ww2 was usually a country farm kid who back home could shoot the balls off a prairie dog at 500 yards with pappy's 30/30.

there were no sophisticated scopes back then either. very simple range andjustments was about it.


as to the original poster if you dont like snipers RUSH THEM!!!!! Preferably with the shotgun. I cant count the number of timees ive seen some idiot learn around a corner and try to 'out snipe' a sniper with a SMG/MG. news flash he has a scope and can see you alot beter than you can see him.

a snipers weakness is at close range.

Lol madrebel, we can see you know jack about ballistics and sniping.

Given ideal conditions (zero wind) a sniper still has to calculate for drop, fancy scope or no fancy scope. Add windage into the calculation (the trees do move in the wind in MoH don't they) and the shooter needs real skill, even more so if he's using a crude scope.

MoH models none of that. Using the sniper rifle in MoH you might as well be firing a lethal laser beam. It's a sham of a weapon and should either be patched so it's real or totally removed from the code. Do it properly or don't bloody bother.

you dont need to calculate for drop at the ranges you see in MOH. There is nothing in any of the MOH maps that would indicate distances of more than 150 yards at most, oh wait youre euro trash, so thats a little less than 150 meters for you.

a 7.62 round doesnt drop enough in that distance to matter. It would take some pretty serious wind to make a difference as well at these close ranges.

Like i already said, snipers in ww2 werent the 1000 meter+ deadly killers that they are these days with extremely high tech scopes.

they were farm boys who grew up with a rifle bascially.

I dont undestand why so many people want every aspect of real life to be modeled in MOH. Go play rainbow six or something. Let those of us that enjoy the FUN gameplay of MOH enjoy it. Go cry about your realism somewhre else.

Youre just mad cause you suck ass and dont know how to flank a sniper.

A sniper sits quitly, waiting for the perfect shot. After the kill, he displaces, to find another spot. Conceal and move. If you dont like sniping, then try and take me out. Although, can you get close enough?

Why do you people whine? Is it because you walk in the middle of a field or street only to find you brains scattered behind you?
Usually, you can watch your team mate drop infront of you so you know there is a sniper. SO....take cover. Look for smoke, movement, muzzle flash...better yet, wait for a teammate who is dumber than you to walk out and wait for him to get shot down. The shot will give away the sniper's position....but if the sniper is good then he will find another spot before you can get there and you will be next...

shit, i'm gonna go snipe now.....

There is a patch at www.mohmatch.com that says it is for the demo, but it works with retail. There is a new gamex86.dll that fixes the cheating issue. Just rename the original gamex86.dll to .old and put the new on in the Main directory and restart the server.
