• DreamHack drama: Fnatic use a questionable boost to defeat LDLC

[QUOTE=Murkrow;46596508]It's a big deal because LDLC were winning by a landslide. Fnatic started using this to basically see half the map at once, which is kind of against the way CT team is played (either gamble with all players protecting one site or split up so terrorists have the number advantage on attack), meaning they can immediately respond to attack on any bombsite. LDLC did not realize for 10 straight rounds where they were being shot/spotted from and by the time they realized it was too late. The even bigger deal is that the boost is arguably against the rules, since it relies on a map bug that shouldn't be there - it allows you to pixelwalk (is it or is it not actually pixelwalking is the argument here, pixelwalking is against the rules) which means walking on a basically nonexistent ledge. The decision still hasn't been reached. EDIT: Another thing to point out is that Fnatic knew about it for 2 months (which was a admitted on DH stream by a player) and not submitting it to Valve as a bug, and also alledgedly telling someone to remove a video of the boost when it was discovered so they have the upper hand in the next tournament. That makes the usage of this, what is unarguably a map bug, premeditated, which makes it kinda very shady and dicky.[/QUOTE] Is it pixelwalking, though? The guy looking over the map has to stand on his team member's head the entire time, and he isn't in the skybox or anything. I would call that about as legit as it gets.

[QUOTE=pentium;46600195]Nobody cares. The point is that if you are caught cheating, the fellow party members and the internet are allowed to fuck you and your computer up, regardless of your rights.[/QUOTE] yeah man video games transcend all rights and laws
[QUOTE=pentium;46600195]Nobody cares. The point is that if you are caught cheating, the fellow party members and the internet are allowed to fuck you and your computer up, regardless of your rights.[/QUOTE] Something is very wrong with you.
First they get busted for aimlocking, so the tournament steps up security, so they turn to pixelwalking exploits. They went so full-retard, that the parent-organization Fnatic forced them to forfeit the match, because of the PR backlash.

[QUOTE=pentium;46600914]We repeatedly call cheaters scum of the earth and say we want to beat the shit out of them if we catch them but when someone actually does lash out at a cheater, oh noooooo, you shouldn't of done that! That's a bad thing! What the fuck is wrong with you? If you don't like me preaching it, then you shouldn't be teaching it.[/QUOTE] no one smart ever actually fucking says they want to beat up cheaters

[QUOTE=Gray Altoid;46599971]For 2 rounds to try and combat Fnatic's iirc.[/QUOTE] LDLC was CT first. Both spots were for CT.
[QUOTE=CrucialSeBBi;46600998]Can't you just go and jerk off to commodore or something instead of shitposting here[/QUOTe] I wanted to bitch more about how you are all being fucking double-standard children over something you all openly hate but don't want to talk about because oh god, it's a public area on Facepunch, but just because you asked nicely I'll go back to CIPWTTKT and leave this thread alone. Also I don't fap to computers. The fuck is wrong with [i]you[/i]?

Nobody likes cheaters, but you're taking it to extremes. Stop trying to act like the victim, what you said was insane.

We already know how pentium feels about esports players. [QUOTE=pentium;45373085]Oh well. Looks like it's back to the basement for another year of training. Good thing you don't have any friends because that would take away from your precious game time. Sure don't want to anger those sponsors. They pay for your feeding tubes.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Swiket;46601963]We already know how pentium feels about esports players.[/QUOTE] that's pretty accurate. he knows a lot about basements and feeding tubes.
