What also helps is that plenty of rooms have the rocket launchers disabled, so there is no rocket spamming. I remember they had a similar problem in Battlefield 2; they solved it by almost completely removing the splash damage. That way a rocket is only effective when a person is directly hit. And it's still very effective against vehicles.

For me it works to quickly hit aim/fire in a fast 1-2 like motion. I have it like COD controls (alternate 2 scheme) so i quickly hit L1 and then while holding that quickly hit R1. so it's like L1, (still holding L1 quickly hit R1). I have tried it a few times and got easy kills, and also a few headshots.
In the past couple days i jump online for a few games or so. Depending on the maps it's not so bad anymore. It's just those bottle-neck locations that just gets hectic. And then spawning into one of those bottle-neck locations is a whole other story. I think things will die down eventually and hopefully they do remove the auto-aim, or make certain servers/rooms Auto-aim restricted.

Ok now I'm confused, I tought I have control scheme 2 ( shoot with R2, zoom with R3 or L3? lol)... and I love it for normal (no glitching) control
However I get the picture, zoom with L1 and shoot R1, right?
I'll try that. Thanks a lot.👍
EDIT: Oh, alternate 2... doh xD I'd bet this wasn't there before the patch, anyways a shame I got to play the game just 1 hour before the update 'hit' me... those old controls were freaking awesome ! O well :/

I've never been able to recreate the cheat. Every time I hit L1, it activates the mêlée action. I also change the controls to COD setting but that only changes the trigger and grenade buttons around.
However, I only wanted to see how effective the cheat can be so I can identify when and who's using it. But I've been a victim of it too often and know exactly who's using it. I don't find people using it often anymore, but when I do, it's usually an obnoxious, whiny, foulmouth teen.
It's odd that French and Dutch people I play with don't use it that much. The people most using it are Spanish and Americans. I've never played with Asians, so I have no idea if they actually use it, but I think it's interesting to see what nationality is using it the most. That way you can make a decision to play with them or not.
That being said, I just played a game with a bunch of Spanish guys and not one of them was using it. However, they knew NOTHING about game tactics and it was too painful to play with them.
EDIT: Well, I just got done playing the worst online game of KZ2 of all time. Everybody was using the cheat. Again, all American room. Pathetic.

When i tried it it works just like illustrated in this video. It's a quick aim/shoot, aim/shoot motion. Looks like you are jerking and spazing out almost seizure like. I've tried it and it works, and i hate that it works. I really do enjoy the game when the cheat isn't being exploited.

I got it to work and I have too agree it quite kills the game. they should really make rooms with auto-aim disabled at least!

Include me on that list.
Had some great games prior to this appearing post-update, and since I have played at most a handful of matches.
Just glad that SOCOM came out so soon after and I'm betting that Slant 6 (SOCOM dev) are quietly happy that this issue hit KZ2 as well. I certainly know of quite a few people who have switched from KZ2 to SOCOM as a result, some of whom may not have done so had this not occurred.

Pistol Only matches, fellas. No cheat for that. 👍
It's really the only style game I'll play right now. However, I do try to find a game with no cheaters. If I don't, it's right back to Pistol Only matches. There's always at least two of them in my list of games to enter.

If you aim for the head they're all one shot kills.
The Magnum revolver takes two-three hits if you don't hit the head. But so what? It takes forever to shoot and you only have six shots. In the matches I play that have it unlocked, only half the people use it. I use it. But, about a third of my kills come from mêlée, and another third come from a combination of grenade, turret and repaired machine gun. So when you break it down, the Magnum Revolver is not much a advantage.

AWESOME!!! I hope this is true. I was playing again yesterday and was getting really fed-up with the instant kills/headshots. I was thinking of trading it in Towards SF4 or RE5, but now i will hold onto it! I have something to look forward to now when returning on monday from the weekend snowboard trip.

I'm glad to read the auto-aim exploit is being fixed. But, I don't know about the Bot issue. What is it? I don't think I played with them at all. I don't know how to know if I ever did. Do the online bots play less difficult than humans?
What would they be used for? The only reason I can see if you want to play one-on-one with a bot for practice, or something.

You can use bots to fill up a room if not enough players are present. You can also select a difficulty level for the bots. This used to mean that people used low-difficulty bots to rank up/get badges. Hence they made it unranked now if you play with bots. Which is fine by me, I have everything I need already.

Just to add to the aim cheat thing:

So, if you are doing it, stop. If you see someone else doing it don't start just to be competitive.

I seriously feel you can't ban people for exploiting the game mechanics. GG needs to fix those issues. You can't blame people for using the stuff GG put in there themselves!
GG made it way to easy to pad stats by allowing 1-on-1 ranked games for instance. Other games require a minimum amount of players present to begin counting stats, that makes it a lot harder to pad. They also put in the zoom-aim glitch, can't blame people for using it.
I myself do not consider this cheating, since the game makes it possible. Cheating would be things like a wall hack or an external program like an aimbot. Of course I do not condone this behaviour, but I wouldnt call it cheating. Unsporting: yes, exploiting: yes, cheating: no.
A ban is a measure that's way too heavy, especially since GG screwed it up themselves.

Well, it is just a Twitter threat, not an official statement, so I doubt they are going to go overboard on this, if do anything at all. I've heard similar threats that rarely result in many people getting banned.

Little question : When you move around in KZ your screen turns "blury", is this because of the graphic is so good that they had to compensate with other things?? If the movement was more smooth like cod (60fps) then it whould look SO much better !

Really ? I think it make it look less impressive. Going back to COD it look so much sharper when moving, I think if KZ had skipped that blur it whould look much more impressive

Guess you have a good point:tup: But isnt it a bit blury if you turn slowly too?

I just bought KZ2 this past Friday, glad to hear that these multiplayer issues are being fixed.
I'm not going to try the multiplayer until it's deemed "fair". Counterstrike has kept me busy since before the turn of the century and will continue to do so.
The single player story has been enjoyable so far, anyways.

I saw you in that one pathetic game. I think it was only a 20 kill game. The auto-aim glitch seems to be fixed. I like the bot feature and tried a game one-on-one with one. You don't earn ribbons, medals and points but it's good for beginners since you can reduce the bot level to almost blind, deaf and certainly dumb.
