Call of Duty Ghost?

0

Hello I'm in need of assistance on the topic Call of Duty Ghost and I was wondering is there a way I can pull packets? We all know there are Modders/Hackers in certain games and this one has a few and we need to clean up alittle. But when I launch Wireshark it does pull some packets of everyone in the lobby but I can't filter them for the Modder/Hacker.

I don't believe there is any easy way to detect cheaters/modders/you_name_them via Wireshark. Most cheating tricks involve changing the "game logic" within the client. This will obviously result in network traffic as well, but you won't be able to see the difference between 'regular' traffic and 'cheater' traffic.

See here: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/12534/how-do-i-determine-if-someone-is-cheating-in-call-of-duty-black-ops

So, the short answer to your question is: There is no (easy) way to detect a cheater with Wireshark!

Regards
Kurt
