MACRO cheats? No Recoil etc

[Drollic]

I think as many of us have been gaming since the 80's and a lot of us program/work with tech we definatly know/can tell. Its just as grown men/women most of us don't care or get so upset about it. It is what it is.
Thankfully my battlefield/COD KD isn't the be all and end all these days and I dont want to be a streamer :d

Just here to have some lolz with friends on an evening after a hard day at work.

The having fun part becomes doing something else as the game can be unplayable due to cheats, atleast if you have any sanity and even just slightly value your time.

In tarkov as an example, they don't care about kd as they purposely tank it repeatedly to try and hide the fact they're cheating. Ban waves now appear to be in the thousands.

The issue for developers is that they make money from banning exploiters as they will often rebuy accounts. Why would you want to invest more money into something (anti cheat) that could potentially cost you money? It's for them to decide at what point does the issue become damaging to the game and brand. If the exploits drop the predicted sales but the rebuying accounts/games outweighs it, then the game is likely to have issues it seems.

I had this impression too, but there are so many people doing it you can see communities dying because of it.

I'm one of those "adults" who never got upset about the cheating as it wasn't that common, but now every man, woman, dog and cat are doing it.. I like to at least see some progression with my skills even though I don't game that often, this and winning as team are my feedback loops.

He clearly says he's been blocked/banned, clearly says he's got an email

Either you're a streamer yourself OR you watch streamers, there is no reason to defend this


EDIT : Also look at Nadia! How many times did people on this very forum say the say the exact thing to me in defence of her! She went to a lan event, came back and BANNED. All those people defending her year in and year out, went quiet, funny that lol. She's back now, but on an ALT account, her original one was banned.

Sorry I missed this reply, that's only a couple of streamers you've mentioned!

My point is that these hacker hunter videos are all the same and so many of them manipulate content for views and potentially damage a legitimate streamer's reputation.

And no, I'm not a streamer - I suck at CoD

I was very good at Call of Duty Warzone 1, but after that it just became sweat lobbies and frustration. Uninstalled it some time ago! Really can't stand the new menu system, battle pass setup etc

Don't miss it, been too hooked playing Aftermath Dayz

You get used to it to be fair, and I haven't see too many cheaters this season in all honesty.

At least I got to live through a time when cheating wasn't as rampant

Call of Duty Cheating Has Become UNSTOPPABLE

And it's even worse when Streamers that are cheating are given special hand outs by the company. Activision/Dice/EA are really bad for this...

Amazing that people are paying hundreds of dollars or pounds just to rank up.

Its just as grown men/women most of us don't care or get so upset about it. It is what it is.

i think this is missing the point personally.
In most competetive games i am rubbish, it is what it is and i am fine with it. in my life time there is only really 1 game i have properly excelled at (kick off 2) - and even that i am not close to what i used to be (yes i still play from time to time).

But I play for enjoyment, and having players using exploits and hacks just completely removes any sense of fun for me. it is why 90% of the time i will always choose coop MP games with friends over competitive ones.

give me decent AI and a proper campaign every time over an arena shooter....... but IF i am gonna play an arena shooter, it needs to be fair if i am to enjoy it.

single player games however, cheat, glitch, what ever, fill your boots........ no harm no foul imo.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Is it wrong that I really don't care about it because it's CoD?

 

[rumple9]

I remember back in the day, in COD people use to map fire to the mouse scroll wheel. Don't know if there's still any use in doing this

 

[Kyo]

Timmy Giving his 2 pence about how silly Aim Assist is on comp and why most players expoit it. Yes it's a aimbot and this is the new norm.

 

[Kyo]

This is how bad cheating is now on Apex. Out of the highest rank you can get last season roughly 30% of them were cheaters. Almost 1 in 3 are using hacks and expolits.

Easy solution, don't play the garbage. Boycott the trash games

This guy understands. Though im not at Neil levels of everyone who kills me is cheating. Actually I'm not one of those who thinks most pubs are full of cheaters. But the fact the developers do next to nothing to combat it im out.

If I'm going to be spending time sitting at the PC playing games. I want to do it playing something that isnt filled with toxic, cheating scum.Stop buying COD stop supporting games filled with cheating scum. And you will enjoy gaming much more. B something might get done when the lastest COD is being played by 6 people. Until then nothing will be done as the $ollars keep rolling in.

Umm I've never said that, I said the vast majority of people ARE cheating. The last stats someone said for warzone, was like 1 out of every 4 people in the game were cheating

At one point I think there was a ban wave of over 90,000!

 

[MoNkeE]

Vast majority

One in four.

Brain does not compute

1 in four is a lot, so if you're in quads and one of those is a cheater for every team in the game. So yeh

 

[henry hoov3r]

Nobody rage hacks anymore like in the WZ1 days. They can set it up so its very subtle.

Just ribbing ya mate don't take it to heart, its all good. Least you didnt demand a One Vs One with me like someone else did on here the once, when I questioned his COD skills. Thinking hes some kinda chivalrous knight. That really made me laugh.
