    Tarkov's combat is all about lacking info, which is really fun and intense but it also make it impossible to know 100% how you died.
    We'll never be able to call out cheaters for certain unless BSG adds a replay / theater mode. And even then lag and imperfections between client and servers will make it hard to tell.

    I think it would be cool to get killcam recordings (like 15-30s before you got killed) after raid ends for everyone. I think I would rewatch each of my deaths. Personally I think in around 1000h of gameplay (i'm still noob) I've met maybe 2-3 cheaters.

    its a testament to the appalling state of the netcode that a fairly average play can look absolutely impossible and very sus to the other guy. I have been in so many situations where I am killed in an impossible circumstance, see the guy is a TTV, go to his stream, and watch him kill me completely normally. they need to add a feature where we can see raids from other people's perspective. maybe something like csgo replay demos.

    • @AbneyDude
      @AbneyDude  Před rokem

      Totally agree. Usually seeing the other perspective puts me at ease, but since the game doesn't offer that, we all just have to sit and fester on the thought that you may or may not have died to a cheater. Hoping we get some tools in the future for this!

    This is a good video and feels more on point than a lot of content about cheaters I’ve seen. I admit to being guilty of blaming cheaters for some of my deaths, the longer the wipe goes the more I blame them. But I recently started recording my raids and watching them back after I died, what I realized is that I’m just bad. Plenty of time the guy was there, I just didn’t see him or left some part exposed and paid for it. Not saying other people don’t have cheater issues, this is just my experience, but it taught me a lesson. Now I need to get better at the game.

    • @AbneyDude

  • @Gon5i
    @Gon5i Před rokem +3

    I think many new players get the feeling that there are more cheaters as there really are is because if you play this late in the wipe you'll normally play against other new players or giga chads which play the whole wipe from start to end and know every corner if the map best. In general I have the feeling that the cheating problem is worst at the beginning of a wipe.

  • @fret2442
    @fret2442 Před rokem +8

    Before I got into Tarkov a few years ago, my main game was Rainbow Six Siege, which also had a cheater issue. Watching both games get more popular and seeing the "cheaters are everywhere" accusations start to grow as the games did, it became really clear to me that perhaps the biggest problem with cheaters is this:
    We, as players, KNOW there are cheaters playing with us. But we never know how often, and it's very rare that we can be absolutely sure that we played against a cheater. The big problem arises when players don't feel like anything is being DONE about the cheaters. We don't know how many there are, and we don't always know exactly when they're in a lobby with us, so the best we can hope for is to know that the problem is being handled. The idea of cheaters becomes a downward spiral. Every time you die to something you can't identify, in the back of your head the though "he could have been cheating" is there. Even if you don't think he was, the thought is there, and it causes a negative feedback loop. Players think they died to cheats, the post about it, people start talking about how bad cheaters are, more people assume that deaths are to cheaters, and it continues downward.
    To this point, I think BSG has done a relatively poor job. I don't mean that their anticheat is bad, or that they don't care about cheaters - what I mean is that in order to combat the downward spiral of the playerbase thinking "this game is full of cheaters," they need to be overly transparent with what they're doing, as much as they can. It is good that Nikita mentions numbers on twitter occasionally, but I think it would be better if there was perhaps a more frequent update on bans from a different account besides his. However the two really huge things to helping the attitude improve are: individual feedback from reports, and match replays. Thankfully, individual feedback from reports is coming, and that is going to do a TON to help players feel better. I don't know if we'll ever actually get match replay, but that would help too. I'm glad that BSG does keep improving though, if you listen to Nikita, it is obvious that the cheater issue really bothers him. People that actually think that BSG likes cheaters should just fuck off, it's such a 2-dimensional and reductive way of seeing something that is a legitimate passion and point of pride for the developers, to think that they like cheating just because maybe the game generates slightly more money from it is asinine, nevermind that most cheaters use stolen cards anyway.
    Good video, glad to see you're not one of the doomsayers for whom the sky is always falling and the game is constantly in some form of dying

    • @AbneyDude
      @AbneyDude  Před rokem +1

      Totally agree. I've been part of R6 community for a long time and they've done some quality updates in the fight against them. For instance, getting back elo when you play with/against a cheater. If they could implement that monetarily in Tarkov, that would fix a lot of pain. Like if the player could get a lump sum of cash, or fresh duplicated gear if they died to a banned cheater, that would be amazing. I think the report confirmations will help on the mental side, but without compensation, it may increase frustration. I know Pestily has mentioned the idea above in a video, so hopefully Nikita is planning it.

    My duo partner has a very close friend who works in the commercial hacking industry, who has some ties to people who sell cheats for Tarkov. I’ve been on a discord livestream with him several times where this guy had a full hacking / cheat package enabled where you can see all the players location and their details etc. also whether they too are hacking. In around a dozen raids he loaded into, every single lobby had at least 1 cheater in it. It’s that bad. If you think it’s not absolutely prolific you just don’t know. The only cheaters you see are the rage cheaters who get banned quickly, the rest are stealthing around the map looting for RMT

    About dsync, when I played 1.6 cs back in the days my internet connection was so poor, I had such huge advantage over other players because they couldnt hit me and I saw them first. If I just had the footage of the one kill on Inferno I could show you exactly how insane that can be. So, always keep in mind, playing online can cause some situations look fishy while it is just coming down to bad connection at that point. Or you and your whole squad getting head eyes right at the spawn within a sec and yeah... thats a cheater :D

    True, the idea that every time you die a cheater killed you is absurd, but Tarkov definitely has a much larger cheating problem than most other shooter games. Sitting on 1k hours, not the best player, I’d actually say I’m still pretty bad, but I’ve been in this community for a couple years and I’ve seen the evidence, a couple years back there was a video showing that most labs players are using wall hack, I myself had a clip of me and my 4 man squad in factory getting “head, eyes” deaths in a split second as a dude jumped down the stair into the tunnels under the office building, we all died at the same time. Aside from cheats that affect your combat experience, there’s several cheats that affect your looter experience, those lab keycards and ledx’s will be gone before you even had the chance to open the door and loot them, and you never even knew.
    The hacking problem hasn’t completely ruined Tarkov, but it’s definitely a problem. Even the best players have really low survival rates in a game like this, which is really contradictory to other statistics in other games, if the top 1% of players barely scrape a 60% extraction rate at some point you gotta admit that many of those deaths were not legitimate, especially when the top 1% of players in other games are performing vastly better than average players in any statistic

    Yes the whining is getting on my nerves! There are ridiculous numbers thrown around, how many cheaters there are in each round. If you add up the alleged numbers, you quickly get the idea that it can not be so many, because then almost every tenth player would have to cheat.
    I play since several wips only solo, I was just tired of constantly listening to the whining of my teammates that they were allegedly taken by a cheater. Every dead... always allegedly a cheater. And every time it was their own stupidity. But nobody wants to hear that. That I got this alleged cheater many times afterwards and the guy played absolutely clean nobody wants to hear. And even if he fetched me then it was mostly comprehensibly clean.
    I have had maybe a handful of cheaters in all these years. Without exaggerating, in any other MP I see more cheaters than in EfT. Yes EfT has cheaters, but certainly not the quantities as constantly claimed.
    Even watching streamers, at least the Germans in my case, ridiculous! Every PMC who is not a Timmy and knows how to do it is supposedly a cheater.
    I wish BSG would finally build a replay function into the game, after raid end the server should save the complete replay and share it with everyone in the round. I bet 90% less messages! Then every fool can see that he was already followed 5min. However, you would then also see how crappy the EfT servers run and how sick the desync is. Maybe BSG wants to hide that.

    Hi, love your videos and I agree with your sentiment of people and their hackusations. A whole lot of the community is far too quick to call someone a cheater and it's nice to see others fighting back at the "everyone is a cheater" mentality. However, I don't think their fear of cheaters "ruining" tarkov is at all unfounded.
    I've been playing since the game became available to anyone that owns EOD so I've been there for a whole lot of rough patches. I have walked the lands of tarkov since long before the coming of healing animations. I've witnessed people glitching entire kitted out weapons in their secure containers, the death of hatchlings as we knew them with out of raid healing, and even the dreaded times before battleye when BSG thought they could develop their own in-house anti-cheat. Tarkov has improved in so so many ways, especially in the desync department, over the years but I've never seen a developer take so many steps to combat cheaters in ways that hurt the regular players. All the band-aid solutions they've made just continue to pile up and I feel that the hackusation community might be on to something if this keeps up. You can't even drop items from out of raid anymore. The "cheaters in every lobby" meme might not be all too exaggerated if this is BSG's best attempt to stop all the cheaters and Real Money Trading.

    I feel like the problem is hugely exaggerated because of the amount of cheater accusations we see about Tarkov in videos, streams, Reddit posts or wherever else. When I first started playing this game I didn't watch any content about it and without that external influence I also rarely expected my deaths to be from cheaters even though you sometimes just die without hearing or seeing anything. That's just how this game is, sometimes you just die and you will never know how it happened, but that doesn't have to mean it was a cheater. With all this talk about cheaters I feel that I jump to that conclusion way faster now too and it kind of ruins the experience when you have this doubt in the back of your mind after every death.

      I mean, Lvndmark literally marks everyone as a cheater or sees the player as "reportable". Certain people have just huge fucking ego problems (he's not the only guy). I am sure we all got reported at one point by someone (not timmy related).

Its not infested like people think but yes you will run into a cheater 100% at some point. Unlike some games tarkov cheaters can make money from selling services

    For real, BSG and BattleEye really did try their best to keep the game clean, and even Nikita said on stream that they could stop every hacker, but then their cheats just outrun the anti-cheats at some moment, and the loophole just kept going on for the whole life span of that game. You can't completely stop every cheater in the world in every game that existed. Still, you can help legit players have a better playground by stop complaining "cheaters are everywhere" on every official post/media from Game Developers. Just cheer them, don't make their game look worse.
    Just before calling them a cheater, give it a second to justify how you could died there and put yourself into the opponent's shoes to understand why he's better or pure luck.

    So your whole argument is kind of bunk dude. Sure netcode is bad - and there's some very technical reviews about the delays in what you see vs. Player too. Which should be fixed. But cheating is absolutely rampant in tarkov. Especially when they're brave enough to buy advertising space on CZcams. Which isn't cheap, I worked in advertising so I'd know.

    But Abney, dude, the same day the admin ban on reddit was posted, there was also 2 different posts about flying unkillable PMC's. Is that also experience? Maybe a quest reward from Prapor?
    I doubt I was ever killed by a cheater, and even if I was, it hardly matters since when some top level player kills me, it feels the same [although in this case is fair], but Im not sure downplaying the existence of cheaters its the best for the future of the game, or its fanbase.

      Definitely not downplaying their existence, but many people call cheats for normal deaths, white names ($45 version of the game), TTV in the name, etc. This community goes a bit overboard on the haccusations because there isn't a way to confirm cheats or not, so everything just leans towards them.

    Are there cheaters?

I get it people rage and blow things out of porportions but i really dont think people are cheating as much as advertised. Its like the "smurfing" problem in valorant are there Smurfs? yes; but i dont think there are as many you think. And in valorants case if they are smurfing and you are trying to climb rank eventually you will play against a lot of better people. I think people look for excuses and its so easy to blame the unknown or other things. but like you said desync is a issue but htere are so much more; positioning and timing are also super huge. but at the end of the day the game and our mentals are what we make of it; if your getting burnt out take a break.

    This video really didn't age well with the recent g0at video. It doesn't come down to if you can tell if its a cheater, it really comes down to the tools and security methods on how to prevent cheating. The fact that cheaters are being told to uninstall Valorant because vanguard picks up on the EFT cheats is a clear sign that more needs to be done to stop the cheating. If the feeling of each death starts to make you think that a cheater killed you, then something is wrong. You could be a simple sniper in tarkov and spot enemy PMC's or you could have cheats to see the full lobby. THIS IS an issue. The Game (EFT) just makes this far more complex.
    Ban waves do nothing but bring more money into BSG's hands because it just leads to them buying another account. You need to attack the cheats with better methods not just ban waves.
    Cheaters will cheat if they think they can get away with it. We're at the point where, Yeah, They know they can get away with it. As long as its not spin botting or fly hacking. Bans for high KDA won't fix this, they just bot their PMC's into raids to die and lower their KDA.
