So did anybody play online with the trainer? On one of the missions(i think its part of the game) I got hacked and I had to chase down a guy. My codes are all on by the way and I catch/kill him very quickly.

Immediately afterwards I'm forced by the game to go hack somebody else and the person catches me. However, the funny part was that after he caught me he couldn't kill me no matter what, so i eventually got into a car and left. I did notice if you don't hack other peoples games then nobody comes into your game.

That was the only time and I have no plans on playing online and again, I was forced by the game to go online. Anybody else??

You're not really forced to play online, there is a toggle in options to disable people coming into your game.

The part you mentioned where you were forced to hack someone else is actually optional, you can cancel out of it and choose not to do it, that is what I did.

I got annoyed because I haven't been able to find any multiplayer matches, and was only hacked once.

This is the time to play online, if there's no anti-cheat or server checks then cheating will get more and more common.

There is no anti-cheat for the time being, however nobody said they might not add it later, when I invade I disable my options, but when I get invaded, It's full trainer !

This is one of the reasons i avoid multiplayer. lol

Quoting Yaz_H who is a moderator of the AC forum but he comments here:

"as fishers said, there will be trainers online, and you can also use CoSMOS as well. "

That toggle dosen't work at the moment. I've had it turned off and still been hacked. Only way to truely prevent it is to run in offline mode

Personally I don't like cheating online and therefore won't do it. If I choose to go online then of course my options will be off, but if they invade my world, like techowl said it's full trainer and that's only because it's on when they step into my world lol

I was just about to post this. I toggled the invasion stuff off also and still got hacked. Several times. Kinda annoying actually, since you gotta drop what you are doing at the time and go after them unless you don't care

Either way, using the trainer in single player, is fine imo (even if hacking invasions is on, since they can be a pain in the ass) but once you actually get into free roam and online decryption etc, obviously not.

CH has always said they don't make trainers for use with MP. I agree with that.
