I actually met a guy who was cheating like that. I was chilling, platooning with members of a CC discord (won't say the name, it isn't relevant and the youtuber is great), and I came across a really cool guy. We were playing, having fun, laughing together, and he had very good results. That was weird because he had been playing the game for only a year and he was better than me with a decade of experience. I didn't pay much attention to it, but battle after battle he would get 5-6k on a Skorpion G. So I straight up asked him and he confessed. He was using this EXACT same method to cheat (he even screenshared everything to me). Safe to say that I haven't talked to him ever since and I have reported him. I haven't played the game for a few months, so I don't remember his username, but I might go back just to expose him to you guys. The worst thing is that he was doing that on the EU server for a year 6 months ago, so the plague has already spread.

As a professional cheater, who was making money with it, this is self-explanatory. I started to cheat out of fun (I was playing games where ruining game for others was a way to play), then for extreme in-game profits, quickly got eager to know how far I can push, pushed too far, understood I can offer CaaS. Now to answer those who think cheating is for natural omegas and loosers - well, I've seen this argument being made only by ones, lol. More often than not, my cheater colleagues were natural chads, but I'm pretty much not sure what average WoT cheater wants/looks like. As for my experience in WoT cheating, I did this for some months, it quickly became uninteresting - when cheats drop due to expired license or game update, and I'm lazy to install again - I notice you can no longer play without them, your brain refuses to do its thing. So yeah, use with care.

Wow. I'm so glad this is coming to light finally. About a year ago, I had to play against cheaters with this mod on NA. The game started with an ally e5 asking if anyone was marking their tank. At the time, I was around 93 or 94% on my CS-63 (can't remember exactly) so I said in the chat I was. For the entire rest of the game, 2 enemy arty shot at me no matter what I did. I ran redline and sat still for minutes where it was impossible to be shot, and the second I left cover I was instantly hit. I would also be driving unspotted near the back of the map and be getting directly hit. I knew it was 100% cheating (as even screen peeking would never be that accurate), yet no one ever believed me. I believe I have the replay somewhere if you'd like it Daki. I reported it to WG back then, yet nothing was ever done of it (I saw the players were playing even after WG "took appropriate measures" to my report.

That's very unlikely to be suspicious. That happens to me like maybe a 1/5 of the time when I play artillery with other artillery present(FYI, i play all types of vehicles roughly the same). It's really simple, the number of positions that are good for arty to fire from is extremely limited on many maps, combined with the fact that if you don't move after firing, you invite yourself to get destroyed by counterbattery fire from any decent artyplayer like myself. Take that with the fact that arty's have very similar, very LONG reload times, and what you describe tends to happen simply because your're seeing artyplayers that are not incompetent.

One specific enemy fired at me every time i moved up behind bushes on hill, didn't fire at all when i was behind the cover of the hill, and always fired straight at me regardless me changing position all the time. I was destroyed without being spotted once. Had a heavy tank at the time so i blocked over 3k dmg in the process.

They don't need to check replays. Writing an algoritme to find them should be simple for them. It's so basic, that anybody with basic knowledge of Excel could do it. People with a very high % of blind fire hits over many games are cheaters. You can be good at guessing the probable location of an opponent (just look at some games of Skill4ltu) but there are limits. Also players that go from being average for a long time to suddenly becoming excellent should be suspicious. There should be some learning curve. But it could be different players using the same account. So you need to be carefull with that. The problem is that it might be that WG actually removes these players. But the problem is that the cheater first need to cheat and they probably need to be cheating for several games for WG to draw conclusions. So it could be that this player already got removed.

Same a few minutes later with a teammate. He told me he wasn't spotted aswell. And then something like that occured a third time.. after the second guy got onehitted by the FV i grew suspicious and after the third one i was pretty sure there was something wrong. I messaged the FV player after the game and he told me it was just random blindshooting... well i didn't believe him because those 3 shots all were onehits on targets that were hidden behind cover and then shot after a short peak. He coulnd't have known the exact moment his enemies peaked. The first time i thought okay.. lucky. But 3 times in a row ? ...noway.

WG need to add a program to their Sixth sense, that not only alerts the player they've been spotted, but they're being engaged by an enemy who is cheating, because they're engaged you without legitimately spotting you, or having an ally spot you. Then they provide you a means to drop your replay into them, so they can review the footage and take action against the cheater.

another YT channel featured a mod for arty where it calculates the trajectory and placement of the shot for you based on direction and speed tank is moving. There's been so many games where I'm doing 40+ in a light or med and get nailed many seconds after going dark. I guess there's always the chance for a lucky shot, but it happens too often for it to be luck. There's also the mod that has the laser pointers so you can see where enemy tank is currently aiming, obviously the unspotted tanks as well. I think these cheats are more common than most think, albeit it's still a small percentage of total population. If it becomes more apparent, time to stop spending money on the game until they address it. That's the only way to make them act.

I don't know how WG would even address this cheat, it really seems like it could be a major problem. The mod doesn't seem to change much of anything for the clients it just shares one players game data with another player in the same match. The data doesn't transfer through WG servers either. When two or more players have the cheat in a match, the data is going 'peer to cheat host server to peer'. I have had a few situations where it really seemed sus and I am starting to suspect this might have been what happened. Taking damage without being spotted, not being in an obvious spot, not staying in same spot after being spotted, and no one on the enemy team is within spotting distance.

I got blind fired 4 times unspotted in the Tesak on Lakeville a couple of days ago in a game with 2 lights on each side. The first shot was in a pretty common bush on the 5 line, but I moved from that to no bush, was still unspotted, and hit again by the same guy 15 seconds later. I completely relocated to the other side of the lake and he hit me twice more. I just thought it was ridiculously good/lucky and sent him a note “congratulating” him on his blinds. Didn’t hear back, but I was suspicious. I even asked in chat if anyone on our team was streaming b/c there was just no way he could have guessed where I was after the relocation across the lake. Our other light died pretty quickly as well and we lost 15-3 to a team that on average was significantly less skill. I really hope this isn’t what happened and that it doesn’t get worse . . .

At first I thought maybe this cheat pulls some extra data from the server that could unintentionally be used to locate people, but if this relies on multiple people having the mod then the data is sent to a third party server outside of wargaming control then this is horrendous because there’s nothing to patch as the only thing wargaming can do to is ban the accounts. I’m not trying to be mean but with all due respect if you’re concerned about the mod becoming widespread then why are you advertising it on this video and explaining how easy it is to get multiple accounts in the same game, then suggested it could be done on NA? What is the purpose of showing the general public this? What are we supposed to do about it other than them seeing it and potentially wanting to download the mod now, since the more people that download it the more effective it becomes. “Spreading awareness” can only do so much.

It works by having at least one client owned by the cheater on the enemy team, and then that client relays the information of tank locations to the cheater’s client, but this only works if the allies are within radio range of the idle client. So yeah, you’re right, they can only ban accounts, or some kind of program-signature matching method to ban the cheat itself. You could start a business like that, you could silently grind accounts all the way to unicum-status with the help of the cheat, and then get some reward tanks and then sell them.

Chems is right, the only solution is to ban the accounts and since WGNA does fuck all about riggers, they will probably do fuck all about the cheaters. As long as multi boxers can drop in all at once, this problem will not go away because each box can talk to every other box outside of WGs control. WG had years to work up a solution to this exact type of collusion attack and they ignored it. If I were you, I would temper my hopes they come up with a solution now because this isn't an EU problem (well maybe late night) and they abandoned the NA server years ago.

I've faced this cheat several times recently. I'm a ~3k wn8 player with 80k games that played since launch, and I agree this is worrying. Also as a programmer with a masters degree in distributed systems, I can tell you that this is really easy to do if you have one player on each team with the same cheat. I think ever since the game was new, this sort of map hack has been available but only as mini map indicators or really simple indicators on screen of where the tank might be. But lately with all the money being poured into the dark side of this game, it was only a matter of time before something sophisticated came on the market.

I think there is more to it than just having two mates chatting on both teams because that doesn't account for the accuracy. Even before you spoke about the end stats you can see in game that not a single shot is missing the target. That's pretty impressive when the targets can be seen and nigh on a miracle for blind shooting, even if the positions show up on the map simply because of the way that the mechanics of the game work. When there is no target, the game mechanics can only guess where you are aiming 3 dimensionally. It can analyze your aim up and down; left and right, but it cant work out distance.

I play on Asia Server, mostly night time - with only 1,5 - 2k players online - playing almost exclusively Tier X at the time. This makes you notice strange things easier. For a few days I noticed a sudden increase in number of SPGs per game, from 1 or 2 - and sometimes 0 - to mostly 2 or 3. Its a long story - try cut it short, but the 24th was so fucked up that I checked some strange arty on my team - they where clearly bots. But why? I decided to check some accounts and in 30 minutes I found 10 new accounts started in June, I decided that was enough, that exclusively played French SPGs and then changed to Russian SPGs. Identical statistics over about a thousand games, wich would be expected for software run players. I sent a replay of an obvious bot artillery game where we had 2(!) bot SPGs on our team (Looks funny when they act like one!) and some pictures of account info to WG. Result : Nothing! :) They where never platooned or so for rewards. Just bot Artillery accounts. But I could not really understood why. I posted on Reddit and WG discord, but most people thought me crazy! :) But this explains it, flooding SPGs to get one on the other team! It also explains some strange games where your team just looses, without reason everyone explodes - and other team has a guy doing 6-8k damage! Probably I played with a guy doing the same damage from time to time, but you notice when you get F:ed easier then when your team benefits! Anyway.

many thanks for the video. now I understand why I take so many blindshots lately and on the positions where nobody would normally try to blindfire. This is reason why the gameplay feels more frustrating these days. people play like they do not care and then there is more and more cheaters. I hope the situation gets better soon.

I encountered a similar situation on the Asia server over a year ago, before I relegated the game to the bottom drawer. I was on Abbey in a TD with excellent view range and cammo. The first blind shot I took, I shrugged off as I was in an obvious sniping position. The second shot I received raised my suspicions, so I moved to an obscure position and got hit again. By this point there was no doubt in my mind that there was yet another, new level of cheating happening on the Asia server.

I told them a long time ago about it. They didn't listen and gave me a standard answer.. "its not possible to cheat". Even explained it how easy it is to transfer data, but no. There was a guy experimenting with Discord and screen sharing making cheats too, but I don't know the details.

But if you kill the arty in your team will it stop providing data for the enemy cheater?

Well that sucks. I think I was a victim of one such gamer recently. I recall loosing my mind trying to figure out how I was getting owned in a safe position and while moving away without being spotted. This would seem to fit well.

Thank you so very much Daki. I know you wouldn't be posting this if it weren't important. I hope this message gets out to the majority of players especially those who play on the smaller populated servers like I do. It is hard enough to win battles on the NA server and someone cheating in any way makes it all that much harder.

Still wonder how the game would look like from the perspective of the enemy Nomad. Because I guess you still cannot see the enemy outside of your render range. Shouldn't he still be kind of blind-firing based on live minimap positions?

This explains a lot because I was on my ELC 90 and wasn't spotted and was taking damage even after changing locations and it was always the same player. I thought it was a spot alert bug but apparently not, there are a lot of cheaters in the game. Unfortunately I don't save the replays due to the disk capacity on my PC.
