It didn't take long for TitanFall to get modded as players have found a way to clone other gamers names. If you are wondering what the point in name cloning is, well it makes it a lot harder for your gamertag to be reported. One gamer named gbatemper123 on reddit reported: "I was playing like usual, then I noticed something unusual. I observed another player with my name. I thought it was a glitch, until someone suddenly accused me of hacking. This guy was using no recoil no spread and killing people across the map with a SMG. I realized this guy copied my name and then he copied two other peoples names to avoid being reported." DrunkenSavior managed to capture a clip of someone actually cycling names from the lobby in the clip below: http://youtu.be/YaYfv2-ZYgM TitanFall releases on the Xbox 360 officially tomorrow so expect to see many more mods real soon!
I feel bad for that guy who got his name cloned :LOL: Imagine if they just put him in the cheater pool :lmfao:
I for one hope anybody that hacks this game online gets profile & console banned! don't get me wrong i am all for a bit of modding but i don't want this game to end up like cod!
I have a bad feeling but i think you're right ( that is i think your right about it getting hacked up ) :why:
Reporting isnt purely based on gamertag so this isnt blocking any reports. Actually im 100% sure this isnt even X360 so there isnt gamertags just some usernames... Anyways editing the gamertag is really easy and im sure its possible on this game too, there is always change of the gamertag strings being readonly ones which will then disable the ability of editing it via games memory, but then it would be easy to do it via xam.xex.
Just checked. On Xbox360 / Xbox One it will report users XUID and on PC it will report origin user ID.
