I really liked chat being hidden until you pressed TAB (scores) or opened the console. Could you make that an option please?

if not, what's the command to hide chat completely?

I'd think that is highly unlikely. The deterring effect of having publicly known anticheat is desirable; afaik all other games that have an anticheat publish this. Besides if there is an anticheat it will become known anyway.

This is how you do it normally. Also, if somebody cheats, you only ban them after a period of time has passed. The reason is that it makes it harder to detect when a cheat has been detected or not. Delayed bans are needed. Also, since anti-cheat is an arms race you don't want to spray it all over the place when you initially enable it. Rather you want to survey the field of cheating methods first and only after that act.

I haven't played attack & defend yet, but when i read the bug fix list and it listed:

Dead players can no longer be dropped for inactivity in Attack & Defend.

Well.... i laughed, surely you didn't think of this pre-release doods? Smiling still ++

When we tested it there was no one playing defensively enough to be stalling the game for so long that it ever became an issue.

Something that needs fixing - when all players are kicked from a server, the owner is marked as "winner" and the rest as quits....

[Balarick]

your probably right. keeping quiet about it one defense.

maaaybe in tier 2 CA (though daddy05/kkk creates new account every day basically, so he is there daily)
maybe your location of tier2 CA is free of obvious aimbots like that guy. otherwise on highertier cheaters are at large in every mode, though most of the time they use more subtle cheats (timers, wallhacks, humanised aim). And at this point I REALLY am no longer bothered to send demos, some are accepted by community by this point (like czituch [star of one of zotacs], best mate of daddy05, check out his CAs from past half of year). We take more time to record, find and send the demo, than it takes for banned player to create new account. Why bother if its the system that is broken? fun fact: There was premium/pro generator at one point! ;f and known cheaters were having same pleasure of notplaying empty public premium servers, as myself paying customer, at that point i decided that i wont be paying until this game at least makes effort of dealing with cheaters (but as of yet not even kickvote during game was introduced). So yeah, deal with sociopaths and psychopaths of QL and then you will have my money as only then it will make sense for me to gratify you. Right now call me a leech, but then again im actively still increasing dwindling numbers of active playerbase that gets frustrated when playing against those $@% morons.

polip, you may be right, it could be entirely location based. i haven't noticed cheaters in the tier 4 games i play in. maybe the tier 2 games you're referring to mostly have slummers? a tier 4 player who creates an alt account and purposefully skillsdown to play in tier 2 may very well seem like they're hacking... or maybe there's lots of cheaters out there, and my radar is turned off because better to focus on having fun than trying to find cheaters (that's not really a game, you know)

You can remove it in the HUD cfg, but I can't specifically tell you what it is to remove since it's different in different HUDs

[Balarick]

instead of removing things can you raise the prices slightly?
