I have found out that the PC community tolerates the idea cheating to an alarming degree. (TLDR at end)
So recently, I was accused of cheating by WYL, which was hilarious (video here: https://youtu.be/WW9qWLS2v20 )
After which I thought, hey I wonder how I can create some salt in the community while also being helpful.
So In an effort to look as suspicious as possible I did the following:
-changed steam name to “Perfect aim dont@me”
-started flashing my 88 valor win streak emblem
-started pretty religiously using one earth and Aachen (green and blue weapons)
-had buddies comment on my steam profile saying things like “Xims with wii remote, Xims with GameCube controller” etc etc
Then I started hopping in to LFG groups that needed comp help.
Now typically, on PC if you see a player displaying what I’m displaying, with a steam name like mine, doing comp help..... it’s hard not to assume cheating....
Which is the point of this little excercise.
NOTE: I don’t cheat, I have never considered cheating, nor will I ever consider or condone cheating. I am however a decent controller player that enjoys playing scrims with some of the better PC players, and I’m top 150 in rumble (Xbox) and top 250 on PC, mostly sniping.
And in the right lobbies I can very easily land snipes that are suspect to say the least.
So here’s the crazy thing that boggles my mind.
I CANNOT COUNT HOW MANY TIMES I HEARD
“Are you cheating bro? I don’t care if you are, I just want to get legend/fabled”
Way too often, players were willing to play with me, even if they thought I was cheating.
That’s how far the game has devolved on PC.
People have gone past the stage of anger/frustration with cheaters and they just accept them as a regular part of the game!!!
TLDR:
I’m a pretty good player who has done everything in his power to look like an aim botter on PC in order to generate salt from the enemy team.
What I found was that MANY players would be willing to play with a cheater, They asked me stuff like “are you cheating? I really don’t care I just want fabled/legend”. Which is insane.
