- No Recoil – This is the best hack or you can say flaw. No recoil is shown by the guns after firing, which does occurs when we shoot from the gun and is proved by physics. No spread is used to make a players gun shoot straight along the x axis. i.e. the shooting area remains as it is after firing. And you can fire again and again at the same place without even adjusting your mouse.
- Wall hack – You can see through walls, what your enemy is doing and how many of them are there besides the wall. This can be done by altering the display driver.
- Speed hack – by sending false synchronization data to servers. You can increase your speed in the game than others, while playing online.
- Textual information about the enemy, such as, health, name, and distance, and also information about weapons lying around the map.
And there are many more, which you can experience during the game play.
Controversy comes with popularity:
As the game grew popular , several controversies came into the way. One interesting case in April, 2007 when lawyer Jack Thompson claimed that perpetrator of Virginia Massacre was trained to kill in this game. He also claimed that the game provides you situations where you plan to kill without waiting an instant. You just don’t think anything……and….kill. Such comments are very common since the launch of such mission and deadly games. But should such games needs to be banned ? The quarrel continues…..and can never end. The games should be treated as a way to enjoy…..and gain as much as you can. It can have a good effect as well as adverse. But who cares, the gamer world is rocking since the launch of the first ping pong game and will do the same in future. Recently in Feb 2008, Northern Illinois University shooting scandal was claimed by the same lawyer, that it was executed in same counter strike style. The list is long but it never affected the popularity of the game.
