Make something against hackers, really. FPS games is very fragile when we come to "botters","Imortals", etc. Surely, none of this struck RE yet, but if the game keeps calling more attention, it surely will.
Also, I noticed that there are some brazillian forums that was teaching hacks in some games, which is sad, because they can aim on this game too.ANY TIME.
I don't have idea how to do something against hackers. Maybe a "anti-hacker" programs that is installed togheter with the game?
I loved this game, the idea, the agility, the low-lag online, everything. The only thing lacking is singleplayer, which a Campaign with a interesting story should do fine.(And the game have potential about stories trust me.)
And Hi, I'm Arthur, my first post here as well. Sorry for any bad grammar.

Hello Arthur. I want to be the first to say that we (the RE community) has dealt with "botters" before. I think around August and September, there was a person who came in to servers and used 'hacks'. The best way to deal with them is always to either switch servers, or play offline until he isn't playing online anymore.

For the most part there hasn't been many problems with this. And if there is a problem there is usually an dev/auth/admin around that gets it taken care of right away.

An anti-cheat module or a way for players to kick a hacker would be great. I fully agree with you, Arthur, some defense is quite necessary. It's really easy to cheat on this game.

Maybe this should better be discussed on IRC instead of advertising here publicly that it's so easy to cheat online

It's easy to cheat in every game, some games are just a tad easier to cheat in than others.

Not that really matters. FPS is easy to cheat, especially games that have low-amount of players. Actually, any game is. The difference between them is some hackers is more careless than others.
Edit: And TheLastProject, kick would not work. I saw games that they can block the kick command or make their names unable to be the kick "target".

Kick/ban is always possible in Red Eclipse as we use the clientnum to identify clients, not their nickname.
