Dice - You Have A Big Problem - Console Cheaters Using Cronusmax Scripts Cheating

Hi I and many other in the forums believe people are using Cronusmax Plugged in Controllers to cheat in the game
There are getting a competitive advantage using Reduced Recoil Profiles, Autoaim, Rapidfire and other stuff.

The scripts are out there. I won’t post any links here but I was shocked to see what you can do with a Normal Controller using their hardware and scripting.

Some players are supergood we don’t dispute that, but there does seem there is some supsicious gameplay where people are too fast even if they are are taking advantage of Netcode \ TTD and the fast TTK.

Time you did something about this, if you don’t we won’t have an active playerbase, we all want to see.

I agree,its about time EA/Dice made their opinions clear on the use of macros and what they intend to do if anything about it.

It clearly states in EA/Dice terms of service that 3rd party programmes or macros are not allowed yet here we are with users on these very forums flaunting that they use these devices with built in cheating software and claim with confidence that theres nothing EA/Dice can do.

If EA/Dice are finding it hard to detect these users due to having zero anti cheat software on consoles then its about time they added some to their games.

I for one will drop this game and any future EA/Dice games if these users are left unchecked and allowed to cheat in my console games.
As for the third party licenced controllers that also apparently do macros i have send my opinion and feedback to sony already and i would urge anyone who doesn’t want console gaming destroyed by these cheats to do the same,wether you are on ps4 or xbox.

Thanks for your comment !! Agree 100% with you

Believe?

It’s not about what you believe. It’s happening. All you need is a simple search of the CronusMax library to see the multitudes of scripts for BFV, some written for specific consoles. It lists exactly what they do, including aim-assist, aim-botting, and much more.

@LOLGotYerTags Responded to one thread on the subject already stating his personal opinion. Maybe we can get him here to see if he’s changed his mind from this statement:
*Personally speaking, I would not consider it to be cheating.

It is a gray area though, since there are things you can do with peripherals that you otherwise would not be able to do ( e.g rapid fire ).*

Or if any of the moderators have forwarded this on to DICE/EA to see what the verdict is.

Just had a look at this, right at the bottom there is a list of cheats i will call tgem givibg you advantage over normal players, pathetic. DICE SORT THIS OUT

This doesn’t give the advantages you think but one you did not mention.
-Reduced recoil: BFV has very nice gunplay and the fact that you can learn weapons without bloom and tap fire and upgrades anyone can reduce recoil. Not to mention this script only really works on vertical so guns that have bad horizontal recoil it doesnt do much.
-Autoaim: this only sends input and does not have the ability to receive it so how would it know where to aim to begin with.
-Rapidfire: rof will limit guns and I am not very good at button masher but I have easily hit the limit on guns so this is a non factor.
-Others: The only ones for bf games is auto spot and hold breath which the first is pointless in this game because it was removed and the second is actually just someone being lazy.

Now I will also add in that these devices have a huge downfall and that is it adds input lag that using a wired controller doesn’t. It can range from 5ms to 1 sec or more. In FPS games input lag is needed to be as low as possible to achieve the best results. 5ms doesnt seem like alot but you have to factor network latency, and screen refresh and tick rate to realize that 5ms would be great but can still hurt if the other person has 5ms faster input. The only advantage is the precision you can obtain on aiming but honestly if you have a added input lag that is noticeable it will negate the precision advantage with a mouse.

If you think that people can not be competitive against m/k when using a controller then you should look up nickmercs ghostayden and there is someone else that plays fortnite with controllers and they are able to compete with top tier fortnite players. It may be fortnite but it is still a competitive game that requires precision aiming along with the ability to build a jungle Jim while high on caffeine.

I realize that while also that I may not have a need for these devices there are some people who may have a handicap that makes using a m/k over a controller the only option and why should they not be able to play the game without having to buy a expensive computer. Consoles are now seeing this and making it possible for games to use other accessibility options available.

Dice can not do anything to combat this. It is up to Sony and Microsoft if they want to disable these devices. Since both are moving towarda MK support i doubt they will.

DICE can not really do anything about it, this is a console thing in Microsoft’s and Sony’s responsibility and I doubt it is very common.

Dud, respectfully, if you can shoot an M1A1 Carbine, as quick as it does with Cronus (like a machine gun), please make us a vid showing us that. I say that sincerely. There’s just no way.

Do you have a video of the Cronus shooting a M1A1 to compare with?

It’s on You Tube, yeah. You could find it, and i probably posted it on the other thread, because i’m not doing it this time, going thru this rather simple argument all over again, being if i post it, you’ll say it’s false advertising and don’t BELIEVE it lol…as they did on the other thread.

So how does the chronus get past the rof limiter they have in bf games? And did you know dice actually lets you remap buttons so that means you can use the right bumper to fire faster and they even added trigger threshold adjustment to make trigger speed faster. I feel like making a video isnt going to do a damn thing but waste my time. Hitting max rof on most semi autos is easy using those scripts may now just allow lazy people to do it. Oh and if you have a officially licensed elite controller designed and manufactured by microsoft themselves then trigger locks and threshold sensitivity makes it insane easy to hit max rof. No scripting needed.

I don’t recall you posting Cronus footage of BFV, only BF1. I can’t find any M1A1 footage using anti recoil. If you know where some is I’d like to see it.

Thank you for your input, but i’m not going thru this nonsense all over again. I OWN the device lol. I use it to use my 360 controller on all my systems for the sp stuff.

I’d take my word for it, or the videos, it works. If you seen this from my perspective, it’s a ridiculous argument. I think they’re 30 bucks, and it’s a great device in that i can use one controller, for my 4 systems (360, ps3, p4, xbox one). Try it yourself or watch the vids if you don’t believe me in how the thing works.. So, if it’s all the same, I’m moving on.

It doesn’t, and it can’t, that gun has a high (comparatively) RoF

First of all, the use of cronus max is not against rules as far as I’m aware, it’s a controller, what is against the rules is the use of macros, which is what the cronus does

Now, it can’t be detected, not by DICE, but by Sony/Ms (if they can at all, it uses a real official controller ID)

It’s like asking to ban a Razer or Logitech keyboard for having macros keys…

If people believe the Chronos Scripts can not give you an advantage if you are of a cheating mindset then you are delusional.

Have a look at the scripts ! Your telling me that, amongst other parameters you can alter, being able to reduce the recoil dramatically of the guns would not have an impact on your game-play in a positive enhanced way?

So the M1A1 has a fire rate of 450 rounds per minute. That’s 7.5 rounds a second.

I made this clip on a Xbox One S with the standard controller. I cut it down using the Upload studio app.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pD47bmVIaxw

The first test is 16 rounds, the first round goes off at 01.21 second mark and the last at the 03.29 mark. That’s 2.08 seconds for 16 rounds or 7.69 rounds a second.

The second test is 15 rounds, the first round goes off at 07.11 second mark and the last at the 09.13 second mark. That’s 2.02 seconds for 15 rounds or 7.42 rounds a second.

Don’t know why the first test has a higher ROF than 7.5 rounds a second, I’m not sure how accurate that Upload studio is or if there was some users error. Regardless, it is in the right ballpark of 7.5 rounds a second.

That shows that you can max the ROF, now you need to show a Cronus shooting faster.

Well, it’s not a controller, it’s a USB flash, that has you input data from their site, into the usb via your pc, and into your machine port. You then hook up the controller (relatively any controller or keyboard) to the device. Including no recoil, rapid fire, spot aim, things you’ve already stated are cheating (macros)

But agree, in that idk how you counter that, if not for Xbox or PS to be able to detect it. The only way i would say DICE can, is you see (or hear), the gun firing at too fast a rate to be considered viable, or the no recoil, and they can do that by just spectating the player.

I’ve seen this in BF3 lately as well; Insane Headshot/Kill ratio (90%ish), 5%ish accuracy. They will pretty much stand out in the open, even on Canals TDM, headshotting everyone. High round capacity weapons generally, MP7 seems to be popular.

Chronis Scripts also look like they allow you to Auto Spot… Now thats a big advantage. Have no experience with these nor do I want to. A cheat is a cheat !
