So I'm just wondering people's thoughts. I was playing Titanfall last night and this guy who is obviously cheating gets in the lobby( my friends and I have reported him multiple times ) and ruins what was a competitive match.
My wife heard me complain and asked why would people cheat at a video game. I honestly didn't have a good reason to tell her. What do you all think?
Edit: I am mostly talking about Lag switching, aim bots, & modded controllers.
Some good & funny Awnsers.

After i beat dying light or almost as the game wont let me get to survival level 25, i started duplicating weapons and money. I had a modded controller for a couple of weeks back when i played cod waw, it was fun for zombies but i never saw any point in using it in pvp.

They cheat because they suck..

Some men just want to watch the world burn...and they are dicks.

ALL OF THE ABOVE

Cuz when youve beaten spyro 3 hundreds of times the 99 lives code and the like becomes your way of saying "i beat you, now lets see how wrekt the baddies are when i go god mode..." I cheat after i beat a game(and only offline) so that wayni can have some stupid fun and save competative stuff for online without ruining other player's fun
-
It's fun!
-
Modding and hacking in multiplayer to win i hate, but if it's more of an exploit the devs overlooked I don't mind it, regardless of who's using it
-
Depends on the game really and what you define as cheating. Example, I have no problem with people using save editors in dark souls, so long as their build is legit, because it would be impractical to play through the game several times just to get pvp worthy.

I always liked getting out of the map on ambush back in cod4 during hardcore search and destroy That took some teamwork though lol

Real life sucks so they find that feeling powerful in a virtual, irrelevant world feels good.

All of them

Recently brought BF4 for PC because I enjoyed it so much on console, and I can't believe how many hackers there are, it's ridiculous.

Because it can be fun hearing the raging 12 year olds.

I think they cheat on multiplayer because they think they are cool. When the cheat is using the aim bots and similar tactics, they are racking up their k/d, which makes them feel accomplished. But ppl know who the cheats are.

Why is penis size compensation more than penis size compensation?
-
Online i would not cheat, but i am not the best in gaming and in story line or single player i would cheat if i cant get any further after allot of tries
-
Because they can and they don't care about other people. I think cheating in singleplayer isn't all that bad, but in multiplayer you are most likely ruining someone else's experience, especially in a game like Titanfall which is multiplayer only all the way.
-
Because they can
-
Its fun. I like mega-muling Dark Souls and invading at low levels. After a while it gets boring though.

I personally play single player games mostly and I never cheat when playing. I can't imagine ever cheating in a multiplayer situation, especially online. As for why people might cheat? It may depend on the game. It might be because the punishment for doing so is very lax? You would need to ask someone that cheats, but rarely do they openly admit to it.
