i dont know if you all knew it but no recoil hacks do not work in mohaa. The recoil is still there but the only difference is the recoil animation of the gun is taken out. I dont know why it is a hack if it does not give the player an advantage.
Kind of half right and half wrong.
Right in the way most people misunderstand how and what a no recoil hack does.
Wrong because it can give an
individual player an advantage which I think is good definition of a cheat.
No recoil doesn't effect where your bullets go, the fire pattern is a cone.
Every time you pull the trigger a simple sine/cosine equation is ran than a random value is added to give you a random pattern. If you hold down the trigger, another equation is added to the mix called firespreadmult which increase the spread pattern depending on how rapidly you fire and for how long.
All of this is controlled server side and cannot be changed with any cheat.
No recoil only effects where your crosshair is and not accuracy of the weapon.
The advantage it offers is most people tend to slightly over compensate for the movement of their crosshair. If the crosshair is held steady via a no recoil cheat, people tend to do better especially when firing in short burst.
If you think I'm wrong, feel free to test out a no recoil cheat while also using one of the paint-ball mods so you can see exactly where your bullets hit.
If you use the cheat you will notice a tighter spread with no recoil when compared to without it.
BTW I don't think someone can claim this to be a mod seeing as how no mod site would carry the file, the only place you would find it is a cheat site.
