If any of that is not that good, why would you create a thread to ask for it in first place? how would an auto sprint contribute to more sprint shooters? it’s the same as someone who holds their key down 24/7, the only thing it will contribute to is less wear and tear on your keyboard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are many monitors on the market that have this overlay feature built in. The logic of banning such is not far from saying we should ban gaming mice or keyboards cause they give an unfair advantage. It doesn't touch the game files, doesn't counter recoil like some scripts do, doesn't act like a trigger bot. How is giving someone a better point to focus on a big deal. It's more of a red herring. Using "third party" software like that gives someone an excuse that can't be readily proved/disproved if they were to get flagged for an actual cheat. There's countless posts on forums about people getting banned by anti-cheats and using mumble/overwolf as an excuse. Luckily some companies with their own in-house cheat can disprove the claim since they know what's being flagged. Realistically there's no reason you need an overlay crosshair or to know who's talking in your tiny mumble/teamspeak/discord while playing a game. Though like people have said, just wait. They're gonna be running things against BE and whatever else they may have in-house to see if it works. Edited June 3, 2018 by TheAceNinja Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need to have a gaming mouse, we should also ban all those cause you don't NEED one. 2 button mouse from 1998 is all you need, also that HD monitor is not needed so yeah ban for having a resolution over 400x600. None of this interferes or interacts with the game so banning someone cause of it is just lazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many people try claiming that it's a placebo but it's not. I did some flicking tests, micro adjustment tests and without the fix my mouse input felt clunky, my flicks were often too short or I was flicking too much while as soon as mouse fix was installed everything felt natural and responsive again. Many of my friends who use the mouse fix say the same that it's still working. I feel like G1 might have tried to fix it in the past but imo the internal smoothing is still present and that's why the input without the fix feels so clunky. There's definitely something in the game messing with it without the fix. Additionally to any people claiming that changes in the config do nothing. You need to divide your sensitivity after applying the fix or your sens will be super fast so the game definitely is still using BaseInput.ini to determine how the mouse input is working. Also mouse smoothing is enabled in BaseInput.ini by default even if the box in the game is unchecked. Edited June 3, 2018 by Thial Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Best example being, go play csgo with some gigantic dynamic crosshair and then change it to a tiny static one, the difference in accuracy is tremendous.

Did you test it recently ? Because somehow all of you people who know it the best and are not using it claim that it's not working but everyone who is actively using it or tested it claims that there is a slight difference and without the fix the mouse input feels off. Must be a mass hallucination. Edited June 3, 2018 by Thial Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Second, mumble and overwolf were 100% allowed through PB and people still tried to use it as an excuse as to why they got banned. Just because something is allowed doesn't mean people won't lie about excuses. And this goes towards any/all edits and changes someone does to their game and overlay, not just a crosshair. There's a reason Matt said not to edit any files or even really use the advanced launcher until they can fully test it and make sure there is no chance of a false flag.

If we want to get real technical, you can easily create aimbots and triggerbots, or even anti-recoil scripts on just about every single gaming mouse with a simple text editor and lua. Just because those are simple text edits doesn't mean more nefarious things couldn't be done. Let's just hope they add the option for sprint and crouch since it's super common in games these days.

Excalibur! 207 Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) These custom crosshairs allows you to have it at all times, when its removed when spriting and from marksman with high magnification for a reason. Oscar users on ice are a pain because of this, everyone knows that and all requested in this thread if pointing to THAT. If they are going to allow it, then weapons like these will seriously need a fix (and i think they already need it). The times i abuse it its funny to see legit players missing most their bullets. EDIT: stop acting like its an innocent change only because they are new and do not know whats going on with this stuff... its pathetic.

This probably what I meant with my post, but you just kind of explained it. But you can create any sort of cheating without a client sided anticheat. 2 minutes ago, LuzExtinguido said: These custom crosshairs allows you to have it at all times, when its removed when spriting and from marksman with high magnification for a reason.

They already sort of solved this for a bit though, with the introduction of changes to the movement. It is mainly why Oscar users are on ice is because of the silly animation's you aren't used to. You can't track them properly. But that goes for a lot of stuff in the game as they animation, nor ping/optimization is not there.

You are changing the tickrate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
