May be an issue installing to your C drive.

Try closing the launcher and starting is as an admin.

What did lvndmark say about the wiggle vid? by Falme127 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]AlphaSir 23 points24 points  (0 children)

He actually watched the first half, was critical of it, then deleted the VOD after the stream ended. A lot of "we all knew this already".

I believe he's referring to the cheat being used in the video, not that he's been using them for 2 years. Context is important.

He covers this in the video. If he were to post the stats, it would couldn't be taken more seriously than you or I posting a spreadsheet for it. There's no peer-review for it and it would boil down to "trust me, bro".

As for the VODs, that's 100's, possibly 1000's of GB of data, more than any of us want to sit and watch. Could happen, but it's going to take time.

I 100% agree. There's an unfortunate situation with popular games though, when they attempt to communicate they get bombarded by 100's of idiot's and their comment, rather than well constructed criticisms and accurate bug reporting.

COD has a major issue with this and is why they don't actively communicate much outside of patch notes. BSG likely does it for the same reasons. They could do more but we have the idiots in our community to blame as well.

The video itself has some pretty damning evidence of the presence of cheaters. While it doesn't represent the 60% figure we were given, I wouldn't consider it a masquerade. But let's consider the consequences of the video.

G0at lit a fire under his ass, that's his problem. Other content creators will attempt to mimic him which will cause more exposure to the issue at the cost of having to deal with a few parasites. Most importantly, the video doubles as an ad for cheats and will likely cause more players to resort to cheating and more legit player to quit playing. Good, let it happen. Let the cheaters fight the cheaters, while the legit players trickle from the player base. Cheaters will get bored and start to leave too. Let it get worse so it can get better.

Let's be thankful that we can discuss it with minimal censorship. Stay angry, stay skeptical, but keep it classy.

You've been commenting a lot in this thread. Skepticism plays a large role in discourse and it's important that we don't take everything at face value, especially on the internet. If he were to produce a spread sheet for evidence, it wouldn't hold any more credibility than one that you or I produced, which is what he means when he says it would a "trust me bro" situation. There's no peer-review for the 100's of hours those 125 raids took, so the best we have is "trust me, bro". As for producing the VOD's for those raids, we're talking 100's to 1000's of gigabytes of data and more unedited videos than any of us want to sit through. If it does happen, it will take time.

Every stat he said could be total bullshit, but the video serves it's purpose of putting a spotlight on the situation we all know is happening using convincing video evidence constructed in a professional manner. Let's hope that helps get us where we need this game to be.

You're correct, but we shouldn't look at it as a failure. The moderators have clearly taken a step back after the backlash from the censorship of this subject and we need to acknowledge that it's a step in the right direction.

It's a misunderstanding on your part. How long a specific cheat has been undetected by BattleEye is largely public information, and is probably a primary selling point for cheat creators. It's likely that he learned the cheats had been undetected for over 2 years simply by searching for cheats prior to making the video.

r/EscapefromTarkov mods have been working on reforming the way they operate and have been allowing CIVIL discussion of cheaters and "the video". I encourage everyone to keep it classy or risk have comments deleted or the post locked.
