Yep, it is out of hand. In Australia we have a major electronics store who sells these Cronus devices and guess what, they have been out of stock all year! Shows you how many people are buying them. They are as popular as the new consoles.
If you cheat in a video game, what kind of sick stuff don't you do out in the world. There's obviously some sort of mental flaw in play in these people.
And why is it that 3-stacking Xbox players never have recoil when spectated? Xbox has built in anti-recoil or something? Get that crossplay thing out of the game! At times if I see the Champ squad is three Xbox'ers I just leave the game right there.

I agree with you but I think the matchmaking system is 100% to blame for this. Cheating and even more so, smurf accounts, is the direct result of a game that is too hard. People don't realize that by participating in such practices they make the problem much bigger and much worse. But I think for someone to get to that point to even consider these things it's probably out of desperation and a last attempt to make the game fun again, or just to stop losing constantly. I can't think why for anything other reason anyone would just do it for the sake of doing it.
- hayhor5 years agoHero@Sand_spitter I think the term is called Rage Hacking or Rage Cheating. And sometimes people do it not because they got killed by it but simply because they cannot admit they are not good enough so they pretend everyone else is doing it so it is ok to fight fire with fire. It is sad.

@hayhorYou're right, I'm sure this happens too. Hmm it's hard to tell at this point if the issue is really the matchmaking or simply cheating as cheating can be easy to miss sometimes, but no recoil seems to be a thing these days. All I know is that, for me at least, that my stats (bad as they were) stayed pretty constant and for no obvious reason the game just got incredibly hard. Like everyone is better than me hard. That can't be right.

This.
I would bet a good amount of money on the fact that the majority of people using anti-recoil aren’t bad players— they are above average players trying to get an edge in an environment that SBMM has made more “competitive” than needed (in pubs).
Don’t get me wrong— these people are the problem on this matter, not the SBMM. But SBMM is 100% contributing to the problem.- 5 years ago@Axs5626Sxa5001 Agreed!
