I didn't feel like countering every single little argument out there, that's not the point of this video. But I want to add something amazing a chatter told me - 3p crosshairs are SUPER OP for invis lights. Only the XP-54 gives you a sight when invisible. Firing out of invis with any other weapon is straight up guesswork! This, in addition to correcting the inaccurate crosshairs, shows a clear unfair advantage that's granted by installing 3p crosshairs
Holding out from an official announcement, or fix from embark on the matter
solution: anchor the sight to the middle of the screen and make custom crosshairs pointless. its kind of ridiculous that a modern day competitive fps has problem this basic...
True
I think they need to just make the bullet shoot in the direction your gun/crosshair is actually pointing... Hunt showdown does this and it makes the guns feel much more real and harder to control, which is what the devs are actually intending when they add all this fake jiggle to the sights.
Yea this issue is bound to happen since they decided not to have a set crosshair in the middle of the screen tbh
Yea thats what he said
If Embark provided accurate and reliable sights, the reticle was static, and if bullets didn’t always go to the very centre of the screen, then there’d be no reason to use 3rd party crosshairs. With the way guns shoot, recoil, and how bullets ALWAYS go to the centre of the screen, why not provide a usable crosshair?
There’s no inherent advantage in a crosshair, if anything it gets in the way if you’re good. I could play 10 games with half default crosshair and half overlay and see no difference in my gameplay. Skill diff is an advantage. Your sponsor is 3rd party software that gives audio enhancements, which is an advantage. frame and refresh rates are an advantage. mnk vs controller is an advantage debate. There’s no reason to lambast people for adding something into the game that should already be there. It’s on Embark to add usable crosshairs and make their gunplay more consistent, which will hopefully be done next season.
my monitor's built in crosshair says cry about it
Mine too
Ayeee
giga
Lmao same
Yup lol every game it’s on there don’t care what devs say I’m using it
*me with tape*
Came here to say the same thing except sharpie is easily removed with alcohol so I just drew right on my cheap as monitor.
Came her, said the same thing, found you comment, love it...
Tape Team ftw❤
I think it’s a dumb issue that shouldn’t even BE a problem. (Apex has the same issue with visual clutter as well) I think EVERY fps game should just fix the damn game and remove visual clutter. It doesn’t make it “look better” or anything like that, it just makes it a pain in the ass to aim.
The more people that use overlays, the better - embark will eventually be forced to address and fix it or leave those without the means at a disadvantage
I genuinly dont get how you can argue that a piece of tape on your monitor can be cheating or even morally wrong. Embark just need to fix the crosshair in the centre of the screen.
Also surely you could make the same arguament about a theoretical game that had a really high, fixed sensitivity (so that youd miss more shots), and then threatened to ban users who turned up the dpi on their mouse. (Im not equating these two senarios, Im just pointing out how stupid the arguament is, as it can back something this ridiculous)
y worst take i ever heared from this dude if you call stuff like this cheating you just help people that rly cheat bc its getting confusing
Well something is cheating if it is against the rules. simple as that. not sure what is confusing about it. what broken logic did you used to get to the conclusion that gaining any form of unintended advantage is not cheating. did you think "well sticking something on the monitor is available then it must be legal"? or did you go by "it is not detectable then it must be legal" ?
There are pieces of equipment banned in all sports just because they are so good that they make the sport uninteresting.
Thing is - rules are there to keep a games fair and interesting. I agree that the problem has to be fixed by the devs, but it is sad that there are some mechanics in games that we can't have just because they are easy to corrupt (as you said about the fixed sens, that would be a super cool mechanic, but sadly we can't have that in a game (imagine a spell that makes you sens fixed to a low value - a stun, or when a gun overheats the sens gets fixed to a high value so that it is hard to control)).
@@cezarzbughin3362 if you go like that there is no rule in the gtc that you cant use your own crosshair just bc a dev says it on discord doesnt mean anything bc its not written in the gtc so this "rule" is just not even there and also its not Advantage like wallhack or something or fucking glasses are also cheats bc its 3rd party tool that helps.you to see the enemy better
@@shusakudakeconfusing for people that dont read the rules, perhaps? the guidelines in this game makes it very clear that custom crosshairs are cheating, even if they dont namedrop it specifically. people like you are the problem, like ottr says in this video, people just want to bend the rules to make them fit their own agendas. custom crosshairs ARE cheating, even if theyre not as bad as aimbotting or wallhacking.
The moment I learned the bullets fire from the center of the screen, the practice crosshair built into my monitor got turned on. It’s more annoying than an in-game crosshair as it breaks my immersion, but hitting my shots is far more important.
amazing I'm getting cheaters every match in fucking Gold and people are getting banned for putting a picture on their screen
I hope they just add a proper crossfire editor, i use the r357 and having a bunch of lines moving is just distracting
The new r357 free skin is pay to lose idk if it’s just me but I missed more shots using that skin compared to the original
@@rolopolo1472 kinda at the beginning but honestly im popping of with this new skin, matches of 15 kills or so
If the bullets aren't hitting where the reticle is at, it seems like a bug being sold off as a feature. And truly if it's a game design choice to not hit where you're aiming, it sounds like a poor choice. Sounds like a center dot fixes that "bug"
Agree 1000000000000%
Hyped for season 2! I also tried putting a piece of tape with an X on it in the middle of my monitor. It is not that bad but then I just started using The Finals in game one and got use to it again.
Isn't your sponsor (Innit) a 3rd party software that gives you a competitive sound advantage? I'm not defending crosshairs, but you do literally promote something similar.
And a healthy debate/discussion is fine, but imo you came off a little pasive aggressive and "haha, I'm right" in this video. I'll still keep watching your content, and I get the frustration, but let's be nicer to each other.
Now that's a solid argument. The line between what's ok and not seems very blurry.
My monitor for instance, is equipped with various modes tailored for distinct gaming experiences and activities such as FPS, racing, RTS, RPG, cinema, and even night vision settings. While experimenting with these modes in the practice range, it became evident that they all look awful and greatly compromise visual clarity. However, suppose these settings were to offer even a slight enhancement in visual clarity. Would utilizing them then be deemed as cheating?
Furthermore, let's contemplate the scenario of a colorblind individual dissatisfied with the in-game color options resorting to third-party software to aid in distinguishing between specific colors. Would this be considered cheating? What about players who, due to physical limitations, rely on alternative hardware to maneuver their characters because they cannot use a conventional mouse and keyboard setup? Should such adaptations also be considered cheating?
While I'm not advocating for the widespread use of overlays, it raises the question of whether it's fair to penalize someone using a crosshair overlay on a potato computer facing someone with top-tier hardware.
@T1M3ER honestly, a healthy diet should be banned. Give me some eggs and a smoothie, and I'm cracked!
@@ospuze
Love your content btw. Keep it up!
Isn’t this the guy who promoted a audio enhancer(an actual cheat)
I use crosshairX with every game I play, never have been banned in any game. I will continue to use it.
Still cheating even if it isn't detected by anticheat, still just scummy
@@Indie_Livedon’t care, I use it too and I’ll continue to use it 😭😭
@@Oryxxie just shows your character, I won't stop you but just know that people don't like you
@@Indie_Live make the game properly and then it wont be an advantage at all🤷♂
@@ethonzianch129 I do agree it can be annoying but you shouldn't try to circumvent the game design if it's prohibited to do so. There are some fixes they can make but it's just incredibly weird to try and gain an unfair advantage against other players
This is the first modern FPS game I have played where they designed the crosshair so poorly that everyone I know and play with, felt the need to find a 3rd party alternative be it monitor or software. IMO they need to look into why people feel this way and change it, instead of banning people.
It boggles my mind how they took time to make the built in crosshairs actually jump around, but never bothered to make the bullets actually follow it. Like, what was the thinking there?! The only reason people think some guns are bad and inconsistent is because they expect the bullets to end up where the iron sight or scope visually is. The new burst pistol is a hilarious example of this where it jumps so much you aren't even able to see the enemy before the next burst is ready! I guess the devs are just relying on controller auto aim and think it "feels fine"...
I used a crosshair overlay for the first month before I found out it wasn’t allowed. Since I switched back to the in game crosshairs, I can say that I don’t feel like my play was affected.
It definitely has an advantage with some weapons like the xp, lh1 and ak, but the crosshair can also cover up targets at longer ranges when ads.
But imo, the difference isn’t significant in casual play.
My problem with the in game crosshair is the color looks washed out. If they just improved their crosshairs then a lot of people would be happy
Ha. Nice…
My monitor offers 8 different cross hairs and they can be customized. Think I’ll try them out 😂
The most reasonable thing to do will be either make it so the in game crosshair is always in the middle, or make the bullets go where the crosshair is. so that third party/monitor crosshair becomes pointless.
Nice work.
Yeah I kicked on my monitor crosshair as a test when I felt like I was missing .357 shots that I should be hitting and holy cow. The difference was crazy. Turned it back off because I felt like it wasn't in the spirit of the game, but yeah...
Ideally they'd just get rid of the inaccuracy, but if they really want the guns to feel unstable then the bullets should at least go where your crosshair / sight is pointed.
i smudged an art pencil on my viewsonic crt so i could no scope on scoutzknives
This feel so slummy. Just make the crosshair static and everyone is happy
I also started using a super thick, slightly transparent xhair in the finals just because the current one is so terrible-
and admittedly- the only reason I miss my old monitor with worse specs was that it had a centre dot that wasn't too large and made hipfire in any game much easier.
Games should simply account for this nowdays and offer better xhair settings and the ability to shut of "features" that make it move around so much.
yeah good luck banning me for using take on my monitor
I use my monitor crosshair only when playing with the Model 1887. It is a fun gun to use, but if the developers expect me to play it with that joke of an iron sight, they are delusional.
And then you have me, still using the "tape with a edding dot on the screen solution"... How will they detect that? 😂
(I'm not even playing the finals, so no problem on the tos of the game.)
Yea, really
Just stick something on your monitor or tv
I wish season 2 would bring complete overhaul for crosshairs. More customization, static crosshairs, hell maybe even add unlockable sights like battlefield has. Anyways something major needs to be done with the crosshairs. What the hell even is that upside down V for the XP-54? Just make it red dot for real.
My monitor has a build in crosshair and I use it when Im running the v9s. I just cant see when firing fast and you kinda gotta fire fast to keep up
Disclaimer: I am not using any additional software from my PC or Monitor to enhance my gaming experience - Something that a lot of big gaming studios are aiming for.
Anyway.
Here are the questions:
- Are people bannable because they have 240 FPS instead of 30 FPS and having an "unfair" advantage of seeing pictures moving faster thus having the faster reaction time?
- Are people bannable because they have a mechanical keyboard instead of having a membrane one.
- Are people bannable because they use a keyboard and mouse instead of a controller.
Keep in mind that all of the above are against TOS because they provide you with an unfair advantage over the rest with worse hardware.
Do you see the problem with the TOS? Exactly - specifics. And while some community managers confirmed this it wasn't an official statement on their TOS page, so it's a blah blah policy.
Until they update their TOS and Rules then it's all for nothing and people can argue all they want about it.
This is also a waste of video as nothing is confirmed and yes, you can all cry about how someone wrote something in a chat, it's inadmissible.
The problem is many people are going to use a fixed crosshair that is impossible to detect and will have an advantage. If you can't beat them, join them. My monitor has a fixed crosshair, and I'm going to use it because I know the guy who just beamed me also is. They just need to add a static crosshair or fix the bullet spray with the crosshair.
Thanks for making this video, hopefully it gets us closer to getting people to not chance air and just play fair
I remember putting tape on my screen back in Halo 2/3/ODST in order to play with the Blind Skull.
Csgo is a good example of crosshairs done right. If a game doesn't have crosshair customization, I don't see a problem using third party ones.
Custom crosshairs would be much less of an issue if games just designed good crosshairs. The finals have one of my least favorite crosshairs of all time, and games like Hunt showdown have terribly inaccurate crosshairs that fail to show thinks like shotgun spread or hip-fire accuracy.
Without your video I wouldn’t have started playing with my monitors crosshairs haha
you kinda of started it tbh you pretty much called gravitydrop an idiot and said he could get you banned although if the devs actually cared about crosshair software then they would have blocked the game from launching when you were using 3rd party crosshair software like other games have.
True
There are games that don’t prohibit third party software, or hardware. Rainbow six siege has a huge problem with people using cheats on pc, and it took them nearly a whole season to come out and talk about it.
When did he call him an idiot?
@kotasake IDK dude people just be making shi up rn
Gravity drop was much more hostile in his language back
Can't they just add bloom to the guns? I don't like using iron sights as a balancing mechanic. I don't mind if the weapon is hard to use, but how a lot of the guns are now is just not enjoyable to play for me.
@@Slimmdy I mean yeah I'd prefer the bullets to be going where the crosshair is as well but they obviously want to try and decrease people's accuracy with certain weapons. I feel like that's normally done with bloom.
Getting banned for an on screen crosshair is egregious. Why do these community managers feel the need to die on this hill, its baffling to me. Facepunch has allowed crosshairs for Rust for example. Players needing to use these in the first place exemplifies the issue with their gun model animations, and lack of crosshair customization. This whole situation shows how far this game is from being taken seriously in a competitive scene.
This is not a problem with the players, this is a problem with the game that they need to address and have a united stance on. This can't be interpreted clearly from a couple faceless managers on discord and the fine print of the TOS. I wonder when I'll be banned for using a 240hz monitor since its "hardware" and has given me an "unfair advantage" or when I'll be banned for using innit audio, a piece of software that increases the quality of spatial audio. Wait, didnt you get sponsored by them...
Agreed, very hypocritical with this video lol
Hopefully Embark doesn't drag out a futile fight they'll inevitably lose. Devs should not be making aiming so hard in the first place.
I used one for like 1 day because I used one for fortnite and noticed the shake, but I havent played the finals in weeks now and I did not know that it was cheating. I barely even used it in the first place but yeah thanks for letting me know not to. I want to get good at games without cheating. W video too.
I didn't know that about the XP-54 before, Eyes opening. BTW if the monitor X is cheating then the "curved" gun that doesn't shoot where it is pointed at means SCUM (like at a carnival (not)fair games), right?
Another solution would be to make it so bullets dont hit on the center of your screen, making the 3d party crosshairs worse than in game.
I dont care about the crosshair moving, I just hate the lack of costumization
Calling it an "unfair advantage" is quite the stretch to be honest. Especially with the amount of cheating happening in public lobbies, crosshair software/hardware mods are hardly the problem.
If you're going to mention that purchasing a third party app as a barrier of entry, then at what point do you stop with different devices, etc. to give certain gamers a leg up in games? How is that necessarily different than buying a $200 gaming mouse, or mouse pad? Or SCUF controller with multiple customizable paddles? I have the PS5 DS Elite controller and I can guarantee that there have been more than one instance throughout various MP games that I have won a gunfight, moved better, etc. because I had extra buttons than someone else had. So if I don't have $150 for a gaming mouse pad, $150 for gaming mouse, $150 for a SCUF controller, then shouldn't I be able to use a free or $20 crosshair overlay to make it more fair for me?
It makes me think of the Footstep display in fornite. That feature is intended for people who are hard of hearing that might not be able to hear something as delicate as footsteps, but pretty much every player enables it, which now makes it unfair for the people who it was actually designed to help. Is that fair for people who don't need it to use that feature? Or should that be considered cheating?
I would be fine with using their crosshair but it's so big no matter how u customize is which sucks, I come from valorant and CS and I'm used to very small crosshair so having a huge lump of shit in the middle of my screen looks terrible imo.
does raw accel also need to be banned? because it's too a third party software but tolerated even in tournaments.
Honestly it gives several unfair advantages because players who play with out these cheats and console players will always have an advantage
If they had improved crosshair customization and removed the stupid crosshair gimmick, this wouldn't have been such a massive issue in the first place, regardless if it was bannable or not. There was never a reason to make the crosshair the way they did. If they did it right from the start, there would be very little reason to use custom crosshairs in the first place. And even at that point, they would just be Use At Your Own Risk (UAYOR). There's ton of arguments against custom crosshairs, but all of them ignore the underlying issue, which is that THE FINALS' crosshair customization and mechanics and are utter garbage.
Instead of acting against custom crosshairs, isn't your time better spent on giving people a real reason not to use them?
I might need to uninstall my headset's audio software or chuck it into stereo since it allows for me to gain an unfair advantage over someone playing the game through their tv speakers 😢
Using a monitor Ch is similar to using a marker on your monitor screen and that is literally similar to using grips on the tennis bat for better handling, how is this thing cheating? if you are altering hardware according to your liking how can it be cheating when it's something everyone can do for free.
Crosshairs are perfect bro, wait for season 2 bro, let embark cook for 4 years bro, brobrobro bro.
Just fix the in game crosshair this is ridiculous also you were so rude to gravitydrop that’s my mine issue just don’t be mean about and instead helpfully point out what you have seen from the devs/community managers
Being harsh is deserved sometimes. Potentially getting players banned is a big deal, and being super nice about a response would not get as much attention.
im using croshair x from day one till now and i have 590 hours in game and never got banned so stop the BS and hate....
lol bruh, what's next? A dude playing on a computer with a gtx 4090 paired with a 240hz monitor + 68g pro mouse getting 200+ fps with 0 input lag gives an unfair advantage against a kid playing on his xbox series S hooked up to a living room TV barely scrapping 30+ fps playing on a controler?
These customs crosshairs are just another tool to add to your competitive arsenal, you still need to land your shots. Sounds like the developers need to fix their game and correct the bloom on those weapons that use iron sights.
Yes, the developers need to fix the game. But in the meantime the crosshairs provide an unfair advantage, therefore they shouldn’t be allowed
How can people dare to know where the center of their screen is.
Default hipfire crosshair is so bad so its their fault for people using other options. I dont want crosshair for ads advantage i want just better versions of the default one (smaller one).
My monitor ad the crosair if u turn it on, is that banable to?
No, it's impossible to detect
But I have a feature in my monitor is samsung Odyssey G3 😅😅😅😅
I always use my monitor crosshair in fps games just it cause its always 10x easier to see. I’m not gonna deal with every fps’s shitty version of the same crosshairs when a dot from my monitor is all I need. Like sorry but when I’m burning away neurons in brain playing light as fast as I can I don’t want to focus on having to correct my shit because the game is inaccurate. And that’s really it. The games is shit so much so that a neon dot does it better for me. If you wanna ban me for that then this game is just dead. Won’t fix the crosshairs but bans players who do. Yeah fuck a game like that
I hate that i asked about this multiple times on ur stream and u said it wasnt cheating 🤦🏾♂️ i alreadu bought a sony inzone now i feel like i need to sell it.
Bro if you don't go play the game and kill these scrubs with your custom crosses lol they can buy the monitor too
I find the whole idea of a non static crosshair or bloom in games stupid, it adds RNG into gunfights and is meant to purposefully reduce the skill gap. If I am accurate I should be accurate, dont make me miss when I'm on target. You basically nerfing me lol. And the funny thing is on aim assist it isnt as bad, as a lot of games reduce recoil with it and the magnisitism reduces it a bit
Look if someone wants to believe it's allowed, let them, they'll get banned and learn.
Oh no! anyways 😂😂😂, maybe they should fix the crosshair and fake recoil.
No problems here
Again, just like the short, unfortunately not everyone in the community really cares too much about a little dot, it can give slight advantage sure, but it doesn’t drop the skill gap THAT much. Especially if you know how to play the game and have 300+ hours for example, there’s just no way it would be that big of a difference. If it is, that’s a skill issue. Not to mention anyone can get a $150 monitor like you said, which is undetectable, so is tape and a marker, therefore why even give so much time into such a silly thing? That’s what I think about it.
I imagine it will be a problem once the competitive scene develops for this game, but in the meantime it’s really not an advantage. Still, if its against the rules then it’s cheating
Tbh I don't really think it's to bad I don't use it but I don't give a shit tbh
honestly how can you call it cheat? youre using a wrist sleeve for aiming that gives an advantage so is that cheating? no, its just preference lmao
Loved that this is cleared up, it means that even angle snapping should be bannable!
The AI monitor is a MSI nor Samsung
I’m Gunna keep using my custom crosshair till I get banned idc they should fix it themselves if they don’t want us using 3rd party xhairs , what they need to do is take the nukes out the game takes no skill to nuke …btw diamond lobbies before any of you golds be like I don’t get nuke lol
Gold has nukes too lol. I had to precog protect my teammates with Goo Gun or they get wiped by one red barrel with explosives on it. It is unfun and very frustrating.
Just nerf the heck out of c4 damage already, Embark.
My monitor settings say womp womp
sad we have to fix the game through third-party programs. im sure its intenntional but its ruining the game imo. i want to snipe that is what i enjoy. i lost interest very quickly.
🤣🤣 Crosshairs = Aimbot ☠️☠️
THE COLDZERA MLG COLUMBUS 2016 JUMP CLIP LETS GOOOO
Third party software? Nah just use the one built into your monitor
:edit after watching the full video one hundred percent just use the monitors built in features
1. It's not a software running on your pc so no fps hit
2. Less detectable
3. Faster to setup
There's no concrete evidence in your 'sources' indicating that custom crosshairs are deemed cheating. The discussion, including comments from an Embark employee, remains open-ended. Customizing your crosshair, a common feature in FPS games, hardly constitutes an unfair advantage. Claiming such customization creates a skill gap and then concluding with unverified claims is misleading. I urge everyone to review the ToS directly.
Did you not see the screenshots? Quite literally says you can't do it
It's a skill gap. If you can do sum I can't do on Xbox, and it gives you an advantage. Tf would you call that kid
@@kotasake Did you not see the screenshots I did? The person directly asked and received another open-ended answer. The CMs keep referring to the ToS, which doesn't explicitly label it as cheating. My only 'unfair advantage' is two decades of gaming experience, not the color or size of my crosshair. Our guns handle exactly the same; the real difference is skill, not cosmetics. Kid
@@MDCKROW if it's skill then why change it crosshair at all? By definition that's not a cosmetic btw
The unfair advantage comes from you having a pinpoint accurate reticle when the in game reticle sways and bounces around. You can’t deny that it’s not an advantage
Shitty design choice by the game devs. If they ban for this, the game will DEFINITELY die lol.
Its just a great game!
Bra resonemang 👍🏻
they can not ban me for a normal crosshair it doesnt need anything from the game and also doesnt give any input to the game they would lose instant in court in eu
Let me just say that I have a Samsung monitor odyssey G9 which has a built in crosshair. It does none of these things you’re saying. Just stays static. I’m an average gamer even with the static crosshair at best and still get killed more than kills per game. So idk if I’d exaggerate the benefits like you say.
Don’t be an internet warrior @ottr apex player just causing trouble for no reason. The company isn’t even making a statement of fighting a battle for 3rd party crosshairs so yeah your argument sucks.
I am not participating in any serious competitions, so I am going to continue using my monitors in built crosshair. There is no way I can get banned for using it, so I say "too bad so sad". Sure sure morals and ethics. But also, I don't care and just want to play the game without guessing where my bullets are going. They can either fix this issue or people like me will continue to use it. Either way I'm getting what I want lol.
I got big into battlebit when it released and boy did people get uppity about 3rd party crosshairs. Idc, it seems like a small thing to get upset about
fair point. Thank you for raising awareness.
Using an advantage not integrated into a game to facilitate one's progress undoubtedly constitutes a form of cheating, whether specified in the rules or not. It's as simple as that, and it's evident. Unless, in an exceptional case, developers state (on the official Discord for example) and explicitly include in the Terms of Service, that it is allowed to use a custom crosshair other than the default one. This would make little sense as developers should rather offer new crosshairs as well as new settings directly in the game. It would be much more logical to proceed as such.
Some people, to defend themselves or counter-argue, say that using a keyboard whose software allows adjusting key activation to achieve a faster response time, or using a mouse whose software allows modifying its speed curve to be faster or slower, is the same as displaying a custom crosshair via third-party software or a PC screen, but that's false.
Adjustable keys offered by certain software brands such as SteelSeries or Wooting, for example, enhance keyboard responsiveness without constituting a form of cheating. Similarly, mouse software that allows adjusting their speed curve provides a precision similar to DPI adjustment, but in a more detailed manner. Why isn't it cheating? Because these customization options offer superior performance, just like, for example, upgrading from a 60Hz to a 144Hz or 240Hz monitor is not cheating, but rather provides a significantly smoother and more comfortable visual experience.
However, using macros or other forms of automation does constitute cheating, as it accelerates and/or simplifies action execution. Modifying a crosshair to gain a visual advantage not intended by the game goes against fairness, as it unfairly benefits those who use external tools to alter the gaming experience. Although more "legitimate" because less extreme than an aimbot or a wallhack, it still falls under cheating.
It is true that some people might argue that using devices offering advanced features (such as the types of keyboards and mice discussed earlier) is also an advantage and that therefore fairness is compromised, but the difference lies in the fact that these features regarding these keyboards and mice are available to all players if they own a copy and are accepted by the community and developers as an integral part of a fair gaming experience, without conferring an "unfair" advantage over other players.
It is important to note that these settings are allowed and considered legitimate enhancements to the gaming experience, as they allow players to customize their devices according to their individual preferences.
There may be ambiguity on this matter as it is complex, but it is essential to recognize that any visual advantage not intended by the game can be considered a form of cheating, including the addition of an external custom crosshair in order to replace the one imposed by default.
finally.. no excuses any more. nice summary
it's not tho lmfao.
Been playing with crosshairX for 300 hours, no issues with anti cheat
Yes crosshairs are the problem.. certainly not third party accessibility exploits 🙄like recoil reducing or eliminating ai
comes on monitors it's not a cheat sob about it
Funny that it’s bannable when the developers recommend using one. Id say who cares. Its in the way on many guns when ads.
APEX LEGENDS????
Bro this is the wackest take I’ve ever heard from you…
“Just because your monitor has it built in doesn’t mean it’s fair or legal”
Can you ever just play any game
LOL i think this isn't that big an issue when you got rage hackers and stealth hackers aimbotting you
so if this is your position why are you cheating and posting it here? Maybe stop doing that??
Why cant people just play the fuckin game normally
The game could try being normal, and not have its ballistics badly designed.
@@XenoSpyro very true as well my man
