Destiny 2 streamer caught cheating on stream and proceeds to play dumb!
- Thread starter Strakt
- Start date
Meh, I've come across dozens of cheaters when I used to play Gambit Prime regularly. Those guys who could invade right when the game started, had instant respawn and unlimited supers. Messed up my motivation to get that 100 winstreak in Gambit (although it got even worse this season after they fucked up the stat tracking on the emblems and removed the Gambit winstreak stat...).
They've just migrated to Trials, because it's new and has fresh rewards.
I saw them in gambit prime before trials too. I'm not skilled enough to tell when someone is aimbotting when I'm playing cause everyone can hit me but in gambit prime the cheaters use infinite resplendent, super, and earl invade so it's pretty obvious.
Ran into a good number of cheaters in D2 before Trials. They were mostly found in high level comp (2100+) and Gambit.
They would instantly have super, instantly revive, or teleport to you and instakill you.
In Gambit they'd invade early and always, instantly revive, always have super, etc.
Cheaters fucking suck.
The move to Steam, and making the game F2P, really increased the number of cheaters. There's no consequences for cheating in D2. Get banned? Start another account. Keep cheating and you'll get right back to where you were. Get banned on that account? Your old one has probably ran through the ban duration.

Ok, and?
Destiny 2 Streamer caught cheating!
Semper0311 is what's wrong with the current Destiny 2 PvP, Semper was caught with wallhacks on a twitch livestream, He proceeded to play Dumb and...old.reddit.com
100000%
I'd rather wait in a PS4 que for 5 min without cheats, vs 2 min in a PC line then come against hacks.
I was going to make an OEM joke but I thought its still too soon.
PS4 usually doesn't have a population or MM issue.
I never cheated.
Ok there were wall hacks on my PC, but I don't know how they got there.
Yeah ok I was cheating, the game is in a horrible spot. Fuck it.

Is this a common thing? I've played a shit tonne of Gambit and Prime... maybe I just didn't notice some.
In Trials it is everywhere atm, apparently. Not sure about other modes.
Before trials I played a lot of pvp and never noticed it.
Yes.
Just got a 850 with blue sniper and green hand cannon. In Iron Banner.
Guess who was doing headshots consistenly and even body shots from far away in the air getting shot? That guy.
Then he'd wait until someone else made kills as to not be the top player in the score.
PvP/Gambit needs to be a paid mode on PC, locked behind buying the game.
Often see people crouching and standing at the same time they fire, meaning they are using macros. Or instant slide and shotgun. Macros.
This is what someone said to a friend of mine in Valorant the other day. "You are cheating, we can see it." -> "*silence*... No, I have a new gaming chair" :D
Crossplay should only be between Xbox and Sony, Nintendo can join that party if they could release a system that will be able to run Destiny at it's inevitable 60fps next gen.
But yeah the PC community can play alone.
The great thing about this video is that pretty much everyone can relate to it, although probably for vastly different reasons. Being caught in a lie is terrible and when it happens like that you're hard press to act normal in any way. The feeling alone should dissuade anyone from even risking putting themselves in a situation where they might get caught. I'd argue it's one of the worst feelings in the world.
User banned (3 days): Platform wars. Inappropriate commentary.
I agree, the master race can have fun pulling this shit against each other till the cows come home.
Oh, that's glorious.
Been saying this forever, but everyone just thinks I hate streamers or have it in for them.
That looks more like Smash Bros lol.I agree, the master race can have fun pulling this shit against each other till the cows come home.
You can see boxes around the enemy players, even though walls. He has wallhacks on.
And bungie isn't doing enough if much as this past week the amount of cheaters skyrocketed on streams. Every other match was there a cheater.
You can see the 3 opponents in 3 red boxes through the wall. He can probably shoot them through the wall as well.
By the time we got to 5 or 6 wins, it was literally a 50/50 on whether we'd get someone obviously cheating or not.
Again, 85%-90% headshot kill rate? Buckle up, boys.
Rarely aimbotting unless the match was in grave jeopardy, but almost always wall hacking. The tracking through walls and pre-firing made it obvious.
Opt-in is the worst way to do cross play, people are lazy and often never even look at the option menu, so it would defeat the whole point of cross play. Opt-out though is fine and every game should have that.
Opt-out is not fine because console players will get put in the cheater lobbies on PC because they don't know about opt-out.
That means the people who actually do opt-out because they want less cheaters in their lobbies will have less people to matchmake with.
Why should the non-cheating lobbies be punished?
The "whole point" of crossplay is to play with friends on other platforms, and opt-in works fine for that.
So this guy instant banned or what?
Never cared for pvp so doesn't really bother me but the effort (or lack there of) makes it seem like they want it to be a big part of Destiny.
I'd scrap it all if it got me some new strikes.

See, I don't think of cross play as just for friends to play with each other, but also as an tool to make sure the playerbase is as big as possible, helping match making times, giving you opponent of similar skill etc. With opt in that benefit will be gone.
In the long run opt in or out doesn't matter.
Dead game will still be dead. The only difference is the server can live longer and you get a handful more friends on discord to play the game with.
Popular games with their dedicated playbase would figure out whether/when they want to crossplay and adjust the option on the fly.
