What the...

[Blue-ninja]

Okay, this is the first time I have seen something like this, so bear with me here...

In a server, (u13.net server, to be more specific), there's a guy called DEMO, whose name show up as green in the kill console, yet he is invisible, doesn't show up at all in the player names list (F1), and killed people on both teams, and to top it off, took both teams' flags and went through the top of the map and stayed there until he saw fit to throw both of the flags to alpha team five minutes later.

I speculate that this is a spectator hack, although I haven't seen the full effect of this kind of hack before.

....apparently the release of new soldat hacks are coming out faster than the BattleEye updates are (if it updates at all).

Hmmm, Ive never seen something like that before...

[JupiterShadow]

Don't worry. From what I've heard, hacks like that are kept private. At least I think its private....

[xurich]

Not much of a reason not to worry if you ask me.

[koopakilla]

sounds problematic,ive seen this before ,but nothing bad happens.no reason to worry(i dont think)

He hit Toumaz's Counter Strike server a lot aswell.
I attempted to make a demo of him, while following him in spectator but he didn't show up on demos. It just appeared that you were sitting in free-cam.

Rofl, sounds like a ghost or something

[Lumen-Shroom]

I saw him in in Counter Strike aswell.

Indeed.

At one point he was claiming to be 'MM.' :s

[Meecrob]

I've seen this guy everywhere. He says that he isn't one person or some shit, that he is many people. I dunno. The worst thing is that you can't vote kick him, cause he doesnt appear on the list...

Omg, I just met him, I he was on my team but he's on no ones team and when I told the guys on the server about him he left...

[STM1993]

That's a hack...



Anyway, sometimes, I experience something similar. It happens when you change teams from Spectator to another team. Happened to me in Spasman's zombie survival, and to others as well.

We would have a person become invisible, like a spectator. When he kills, it shows a black text of his name. But he can move around. This one is a team colour bug.

Look at "Vin's" post, and the very bottom picture. I think I found what you're talking about...

That's not it, that looks like an admin joined Delta team in a climb server and used /move to get the flags.  :p

You know the black guy in the intro, could that possibly be him?

It may be so. It's obvious what's going to happen. All the bots are going to become self aware, and slowly take over the computar world. Soon we will have no such thing as, "Multiplayer," as the bots have destroyed all servers with their AI. Soon they won't even need waypoints, they'll be able to flawlessly complete climb maps. The best thing we can do right now is hope that they don't develop physical entities. The end is near.

On Topic:
It can be an exploit of the spectator bug, in which sometimes, a player is invisible and appears to be in spectator, but is in actuallity, on Alpha or Bravo team this could be triggered and is made global to all players, by hacks. He could also be able to force himself onto delta or charlie, whichever team has the color green. It'd be interesting to get some screens.

It is indeed a hack, and I have already fixed it in the next dedicated server version.

Also, everyone please read the forum rules.

Do not post to tell us about some encounter with a hacker, and do not name any hackers, hacks, or say anything about details.  We know hacks exists, and the people who can are doing things to bring hacking to an end.

But to clarify the speculation, it is indeed the Black Ghost you see sometimes in Demos.
