    I just don't see what fun there is when cheating....

    Last night on PS4 in a team of three, ranging between level 53 to 64 and came up against three level 99's in DZ04. No problem with that except they were camped outside the safe house so as other players spawned they would die instantly. That in itself is poor sportsmanship in our book and annoys so up for the challenge we respawned elsewhere and returned to fight back.

    Each time we got slaughtered but back we came. Eventually there were 8 other players plus ourselves facing these three and yet they kept killing us all. The last time it happened to me I spectated for a minute and saw that one of the three was using smart cover non-stop. He was constantly applying this without any cool down period. As soon as it expired he simply deployed it again.. Same with one of his friends, constantly deploying his med station without a cool down period. We presume they were invincible through cheating or exploiting as there were 11 of us dumping our ammo into the three of them to no affect.

    This isn't a hollow gripe about being bettered. They simply took no damage whatsoever. In one instance I had Survival link engaged and emptied two full clips from a vector with 190k dps, while stood right behind one of them. That should at least make a dent!

    I really do not see what fun there can be in playing this way. It's no challenge and surely must ultimately be an empty experience. I guess their brains don't work that way though. Probably grow up to be a big name in the financial sector. Anyway we got a video and sent it off so hopefully the results can be judged.

    This probably isnt a cheat...combine talents Triage and Tech support with smartcover and medstation and you have a basic tank setup and 100% up time on skills if they get kills.

    I know what you mean but I've never come across this before. What I mean is there was no actual cool down between deployments of the smart cover. IE deploy it and then as soon as the activated cover is about to finish it starts again. repeat ad infinitum. If this is possible then you will just have stalemate if equally matched though I suppose players such as these would rather farm the lower levels. Anyway it's done with now and not really worth me going on about it any longer. The devs can decide

    For genuine cheaters, it's not about the experience - or at least, the gameplay experience. It's about winning as quickly as possible, and about breaking the game rules. That's the experience they're looking for - the thrill isn't in the play, but in pulling off the cheat.

    Guns perk "composure" when he stands on the exact weapons with minimal impact the ability to rollback becomes very fast. Not bad on the MK17 or AUG.
