For TF2:
Always crits + aimbot (less than 10). Couple of speedhackers too.
Cheating isn't that major issue in it in my part of the world
CS Source:
Aimbot+wallhack (About 1-3 per week), speedhack occasionally.
I've even taken the liberty of using that steamcommunity report tool for
each cheater we encounter, say the game name and which cheat he used.
Ask Mike Blaszczak or J Burton about the reports more if you are
unfamiliar. I still don't know if it makes any difference or do they go
just for statistical purposes on how many of those cheaters are being
caught by VAC or are they monitoring the reported players more closely
somehow through Steam.

I'd like to compile a list of the most common hacks/cheats you all are seeing
and see what measures we can take on game servers to help. No guarantees about
when this will happen, but it would be great to get your feedback so we can
chip away at it at least.

This is already done with DBlocker and multithreaded:
http://dblocker.didrole.com/
The multithreading only works on Windows though, as Valve disabled the CPU
detection code on Linux, so it's just like the servers always start with
-threads 1. If you got a linux server you can add the -threads command and
it will work though.

I can recall from the hlds times that we used to have an anti-wall hack
extention or plugin which was quite low on load. What it did was it simply
didn't send any information about clients that were not visible from your
point of view. Can't figure out what the name was though, it was one of the
high used tools (hlguard or so perhaps?)

Why does command like sv_cheats exist?
Remove it

I think they could do even more, but in the end the impact on servers on
cpu (anti wallhack for instance) might be that high and since its still
single threaded....

There isn't just that. But I mentioned it since it was what was being
discussed.
A lot of things get broken in cheats when you use this plugin.
But it does cause some other issues (small, but noticeable).

the
server and the client at the same time. They used to allow clients to
decide
it, and crit hacks used to be much more useful. Nowadays, crit hacks
simply
shoot every time there is going to be a crit, instead of forcing crits
every
time you shoot.

I can see some benefit to it, but mostly I see it as exploitable.

Valve should first add some basic server side protection against some
common hacks.
For example should be easy to block "100% crits" hacks like this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hq_LZUPvqI. I understand why the
client
has to decide when a a critical hit occurs, but the server should
validate
the decision.
Most speedhacks also should be detected by server.

Is Valve really doing anything to catch people making F2P accounts to
avoid cheat bans?
Ever since we switched to IP bans, we've been able to catch many
cheaters using F2P to avoid bans. Some of them have even made up to 4
accounts in a row. Unfortunately, I've started to see some of these
people sprinkle our ban system with dynamic IPs which will inevitably
ban innocent users.
We've also recently dealt with another hacker here (Valve can confirm
they use the same IP address).
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198047123732 - primary
cheating
account
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198038410008
What was unusual about this is that he was using a name copy program
and the admin at that time was complaining he couldn't use the status
command. Is it possible to have the status command blocked somehow?
The cheater in question posted this youtube video on this hack forum.
