Onlive Homefront: Are People Cheating?

Question

I recently purchased and started playing Homefront for Onlive. I'm seeing a lot of suspicious things ... head shots from across the world, instant perfect aiming, people with 3x the score of anyone else.

Sure, I'm open to the possibility that I'm just really, really terrible at FPS, but I'd sort of like to know if I'm wasting my time trying to get better, or if it's a futile effort.

Thanks.

Answer

As Homefront on OnLive runs on OnLive's servers people can't get access to the game files, so cheating should be out of the question. But, when Homefront was released it had many errors which people exploited in multiplayer. OnLive has fixed those errors. But there are maybe some little things that people are still exploiting that can't be fixed. I say maybe, because you can't know for sure. What is sure is that cheating is definitely way more dificult, if not imposible on OnLive, than on other systems because people don't have access to the game files.

It is also true that many people have great skils in Homefront on OnLive, as they are playing the game daily.
