I think there is a problem with it: some guy is currently using hacked characters on it so think that whoever manage it should make it so people using hacks get remove from it since it ruins the game.

You're right, if that's true, but this is more than a casual issue. I'm moving it to the SC multi forum.

All he's doing is using characters with swapped movesets (Astaroth with Pyrrha moveset, for example). It doesn't affect gameplay any more than using a CaS does, and as much as I would like to ban CaS, it's not going to happen.

Even if it's just swapped moveset it's still hacking and I would totally hate it if I fought someone online who did this cause if I fight someone using Astaroth, then his Astaroth should have Astaroth moveset and not someone else moveset.

Look at the weapons. That's who you're fighting.

Sure, but when you see the battle card it does not tell you the moveset if it's a real character so you can't prepare before the fight if the person you're fighting against is hacking.
Well, I just wanted to bring up the issue, it's not like it will happen to me since I play on Ps3.

That's not hacking though. They just built CAS characters that look like the other character.
Dirty is making a CAS that looks just like the 1up or 2up versions of a character so that in a mirror match you end up with two identical characters.

What I saw was real hacking.
When you make a CaS, when you see the battle cards, it's written :
Creation 01
Style Cervantes
What I saw was a real character so it was written:
Dampierre
Style -
but when the fight started Dampierre had Cervantes moveset and if that's not hacking, I don't know what is.

Happened alot in SCIV, Asholotte with Amy's style was very common for some reason...

No. This is real hacking
What we see so far is just minor stuff; it's only concerning if it happens to go to this extreme. Hopefully it won't.

Yeah I would never do that, that is pretty much cheating if you play online with that. But SC5 doesnt have equipment stats and abilities. I dont often play my Dampierre with Algol style because his armblades don't appear and Im no cheater. Also, I believe that Main chars with Swapped movesets actually have no hitbox issues, unlike CaS.

I don't know.
Like everyone's saying, it's mostly benign. Those that are looking into it are basically still groping around in the dark trying to figure it out, if hacks like that are even possible in SCV it's going to be a long while before Joe Schmo has effortless access to anything that will break the game. Hopefully the knowledge to do such things will be kept in-check though, otherwise we could see a significant number of actual malevolent hackers in the future :|
...But at least right now it's not something worth worrying over.

This is like calling Edge master, Elysium and Killik hackers.

Even if the hacking now is only minor stuff, it's still hacking and people who hack should be respectful to others people online and only use hacked things offline.
If I would fight someone online that use an hacked character, I would immediately disconnect and that saying something big because I never disconnect even if I'm getting completely destroyed by my opponent.

On the XBL side you can simply report them and get them banned if they're super annoying.

In a way, they are: they hacked the roster :p
Well that's good to know...although 1:37-1:43 was funny as hell
Slade

The funny thing about the Algol style swaps where his weapons don't appear is that the same thing happens if you equip animal heads to Algol. Like I said, CaS is just as bad (if not worse) than moveset swapping.

Lol, I feel as though your post should've started with, "Now I don't wanna be THAT guy, but..." And like everyone else is saying, it's not a big deal.

I think that any type of hacking should be a big deal considering that hacking is illegal.
