@MandatoryIDtag I wish some content creators would do an experiment with the spectate mode versus actual view, for all ping types and trying different play styles. Thing is, drama sells better...

@DoYaSeeMe Ah there's undoubtedly discrepancies between real-time play and what we're seeing via spectate, so the line does get blurred sometimes.
We've been playing long enough at this point to spot the difference though I should think, at least for the most part anyway.
- 4 years ago@MandatoryIDtag Well, all these differences we spot are based on the server reality. This means 20Hz update rates, the rest being interpolation (movement of the player is pretty smoothed out), lag compensation being applied (projectiles going near targets but still hitting them), player delay being factored in, etc.. Just think about the fact that probably no player does get shot behind cover in spectator mode.

@DoYaSeeMe I'm not claiming that everyone I suspect is instantly a cheater, I generally won't report at all unless I can say with full certainty that somebody is manipulating the game in some way....so I mean there isn't much point in us debating the ifs and buts lol.
The point is you can tell the difference if you know what you're looking at, the report function would be pointless otherwise no?
- 4 years ago@MandatoryIDtag I am questioning the spectate system because there may be ways to make it more reliable. An improvement could make some cheats more obvious and also eliminate some of the many false reports. We do see a lot of complaints about wrong bans around here so, who knows, maybe there are some issues with the spectate / report system.
