Destiny 2 player highlights \u201ctiring\u201d cheating issues in multiplayer BungieAt its very best, Destiny 2 offers some of the best PvP and PvE shooter gameplay out there. Unfortunately, it has often been beset by significant issues, whether those are of Bungie\u2019s own making or not. In the game\u2019s myriad PvP modes, players always look for a slight edge over their opponents. Whether that be through finely tuned weapons or unique builds, all is fair in the Crucible. Unfortunately, some don\u2019t consider that enough and choose to take their need for victory a step too far. There are several main ways that people cheat in Destiny 2. As with other shooters, some turn to aim bots or wall hacks to improve their targeting to inhuman levels artificially. Others use glitches to reach areas where they can\u2019t be hit or to fly above the battlefield and rain down destruction. In a staggering example of the latter, one player\u2019s experience underlines the scale of the problem on Bungie\u2019s hands. Destiny 2 player killed by enemy flying above the map In a post on Reddit, one user shared a deeply annoying clip of a cheater flying high above the PvP map Vostok, killing them immediately after spawning. As if that wasn\u2019t bad enough, they were killed by the same player straight after respawning for a second time. With the player way out of typical sightlines and capable of moving across the entire map in a matter of seconds, they had little to no chance of getting the kill first. Many responses to the post express dismay that this is such a prevalent issue so long after release. One said: \u201cThese guys aren\u2019t even the worst. I\u2019d much rather play against these guys who are CLEARLY cheating than against people using wall hacks, aim bots or Xim\/Chronus with scripts.\u201d Another suggests Bungie are failing to prioritize, saying: \u201cThey fucked over the Linux community, but can\u2019t even keep cheaters out of their game. Considering how they treat the veteran employees it\u2019s not surprising.\u201d Though PvP isn\u2019t for everyone, many feel as though the developer has failed to make significant steps to combat cheaters. With The Final Shape releasing in June, time will tell if the game\u2019s conclusion brings substantial changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
