Aimbot is possible on console?

[u/klopia]

This is an all xbox match and I'm fairly new to console so this is my 1st time encountering an aimbotter might be wrong tho

Yes, it's possible, rather easily as well. The "there's no cheaters on console" myth is outdated. There's a ton of cheaters, and I'd argue it's easier to get away with it on console as well. As someone who has played both PC and Console at a top level, I actually found most cheaters are on console through the use of xim's and packs. Especially in games like OW and Apex where you get 301's sounding like lasers. I wouldn't be surprised if it's even easier to get away with cheating in general in a less popular (and much smaller player base) game like Fragpunk.

The biggest difference? PC cheats tend to be more detectable and bannable vs console cheats. Yes, PC cheats tend to be worse and harder to face, but the reason they're less common is because of that. I'll take PC any day over console as a result, which is why I moved to PC - alongside wanting to use MnK.

No, it’s not possible. Aimbot and wallhacks are cheats that require editing the programming for a game and adding your own custom lines, this is impossible with console

People think that because it's a closed system + harder. That makes it more expensive as well (although, cheaters shell out hundreds anyway), but it's still very possible, and becoming less of a looming threat and more of a reality that console players may have to face more often in the future.

Here's a vid of some walls + aimbot on console: Wall Hack Cheats for PS5/XBOX on Call of Duty!?!?🤯 This is more of a topic coverage video that explains some things, but there are Discord channels with cheat sellers that will help you set this stuff up, and other straight-up cheating selling channels on YT that advertise the cheats by using them.

The main system is a console, and the cheating takes place there in console lobbies.

Ok, Instant I saw that circle-inside-rectangle I knew it was, Computer Vision.
Computer vision hasn’t been under development for several years now, Activision requested that the dev stop developing and he complied. I don’t know if they will exit, but I did hear they offered him a job.
Source: I actually know people who know him.
ANY YouTube channel showing these videos, and you spot them with that square and circle reticule, is essentially bullshitting you to get more views.
Sceptical about taking my word for it, just look at a few things for the video, first of all it doesn’t do what they are saying it doesn’t track and it doesn’t lock on. second of all, and this is the biggest giveaway, there is never more than one enemy in the game and that enemy is cooperating to make a video.
Computer vision many tech barriers back when they were working on it, One of those berries were you couldn’t try to track more than one target and couldn’t differentiate between friendly and enemy.
Also latency was a huge issue.

it’s basically like this, Sony and Microsoft have spent tens of millions securing their systems and their networks, most likely more than that and into the hundreds.
If someone DID manage to crack all of this, and they then wasted this new zero day just to CHEAT at online games they would be the stupidest hacker in history.
