Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
i saw this earlier, and though I'd post it, its disgusting, but really interesting, hope it dosent make me a wannabe
wrote ... Well, it's finally done. EA f**ked with me for the last time, now I have f**ked them back.
Been workin' on this for a while, tryin' to figure out how to get around punkbuster and $#it - unfortunately, the answer was so simple and right in front of me. Punkbuster doesn't even check this $#it, it's really sad.. I'm surprised no one else has figured this out yet.. Anyway, still makin' a few touch-ups but for the most part, this $#it is solid. You can do ANYTHING to bf2. I seriously mean ANYTHING. On any server, ranked, punkbustered, etc.
Made a quick video to show what ya can do - footage from live ranked/pb servers, f*ckin hillarious seeing peoples reactions lol...
Clip 1: Modified sniper rifle - tweaked mag, zoom, recoil, damage... Clip 2: Modified knife - tweaked damage, range (rofl)... Clip 3: Modified AT launcher - fully auto... Clip 4: Collision damage model modification - basically, they see me, but can't shoot me cause the collision model is 500ft below me, basically god mode... Clip 5: Modified parachute - deploy anywhere, launch 200ft in the air and then chute deploys... ... ahh, success.
Again, f**k you EA. This will be the last time you f**k with ***** and expect no consequences.. Perhaps I should release this to the public? That way, you have everyone running around on your precious $120/month ranked servers doing this $#it. Oh, and since punkbuster doesn't pick this up, it ain't a h4ck, right? Smile

If this video isn't fake (I think it is, read on to find out why), then BF2 is broken, right from the ground up, because that should not happen even without PunkBuster. The design patterns used would not match a world with all these hacks.
Normally, the server is expected to keep track of all game state, including weapon behaviour, physics (parachute), collision meshes and so on. A client modifying that stuff locally should have no effect on game play, as the server should perform the actually shooting, moving and so on, with the player only giving the order to do so. This hack can only work if the design of Battlefield 2 is different, doing all or many calculations concerning the player on the client itself. This should allow for not as powerful servers, but also for these hacks. To a certain degree, some calculations are always performed on the client, but the degree varies (that's also the reason how most hacks are possible, with the client working with data it is meant to have but not to use that way, e.g. enemies' positions for radar hacks or player position data for aimbots).
One thing about the collision meshes hack: This only works if BF2 uses different collision meshes for player/terrain collision than for bullet ray tracing. Which might even make sense, so they might just be doing that.
It can be considered common knowledge for people programming such games that important calculations are done on the server, every tutorial on writing network games says so. Hell, even stupid n00bs like me know that! For that reason, I have doubts that Dice could really be so stupid. Even more so as previous hacks for BF2 seem to stay within the confines this approach to network gaming mandates. I cannot imagine how all that tried hacking BF2 before managed to miss this huge omission. For this reason, I believe that this video is fake and will continue to do so until proven wrong.
My guess would be that he created a mod and played that (perhaps together with some friends) to shoot this video. Speaking agains this is the fact you can see that the names of the people he kills match (e.g. Gulf of Oman has mostly german-sounding names, suggesting a server in germany).
I am taking a chance by saying this is fake, I could be wrong, but that's my guess
