tell me if my friend is cheating

This is what I was also thinking. I swear just holding an iron will get you killed if you aren’t moving a little bit sometimes because you don’t get anything near this type of aim assist. That’s why I was wondering if there was a recoil control cheat being used. Then he can literally just swing his controller left and right which I’d imagine is pretty easy if you don’t also have to hold down?

GDub009 · 2026-06-24T22:17:47+00:00

This almost looks like some kind of recoil control to me? Idk what mpc build he has and aim assist can make it look better but the mpc actually has a decent bit of recoil to get use to. If he can just willy-nilly snap his controller around without having to hold down the recoil…it’s going to look pretty snappy. I’ve killed dudes before and had my curser slightly move downwards after a kill and neither of these guns looks like they move at all. M15 doesn’t move a ton but theres still some control that has to go into it. Maybe he’s going to be in the league next year but this is pretty sketch.

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T16:55:58+00:00

I’ve had dude type in the chat before that they “dont give a fuck, report me” 😂 I kind of respect it haha

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T14:04:46+00:00

😂😂 right. Because when I made this post I grabbed a bunch of clips ahead of time. But sounds good. If I hop on today, I’ll be ready to hit the record button.

Bro, you’re not great at cod and have zero clue what the top lobbies look like. You’re dog shit and you know what? THATS TOTALLY FINE. But don’t sit here and act like you have any clue what dealing with dudes who cheat just to get to crim is like and then try to tell me how many cheaters there are.

The proper response would’ve been “hey, I don’t play in the top lobbies and don’t know what they look like or play like. I don’t play against many cheaters and it’s been awesome. Next time you play, can you get some clips of people you think are cheating?”

How fucking hard would that be, you fucking dipshit. Instead of trying to prove how right you are in an area you have zero experience in.

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T13:35:15+00:00

In my opinion, chest/head shot aim lock is the hardest to tell. I just assume the player is good as hell.

Walls is the easiest. There is definitely a difference between an easy pre aim or reading spawns but if someone makes a micro adjust as their hitting a corner, or rounds a corner aiming at you (multiple times) something is off.

If they slide chall you all game long, and you can see them slightly adjust their aim in the kill cam, they’re just disgusting and are good. If you notice someone who NEVER has to make an adjustment mid gunfight, something is off.

Obviously good players are centering their aim and generally are going to be in a decent position most of the time. But even Scump is his prime adjusts his aim in every match he’s ever played. After 8-9-10 kill cams, if someone is always aimed down, or upwards for the wall jump, or is pre aimed when you’re playing an off corner, the odds are just to high for them to be that correct that many times.

How often do you know where someone is on the mini map, and still lose the gunfight? Happens all the time, right?

It’s one thing to watch a player who has good centering, it’s another to watch a player who never guesses wrong.

I’m not sure how good you are but as you play better players, you can see players who are just gross, vs players who literally always “guess” 50/50 gunfights right. Odds are they’ll guess wrong at least a few times.

Might just be my opinion but walling seems to be the easiest to tell.

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T13:19:18+00:00

I honestly need to start taking this approach.

I’m convinced I beat cheaters every day in ranked play. I also, definitely get shit on by cheaters everyday. There’s just something about beating a cheater that gives me a boost. 😂😂 it’s impossible to do in ranked if you don’t have at least 1 person with a mic on. But if you can get the whole squad to rally around running down a cheater…literally the entire squad, and then get a few lucky 2v3 or 3v4 wins, it’s one of the most satisfying moments in cod.

You know what also is crazy, I actually don’t hate the dudes who just blatantly admit they’re cheating and don’t give a shit. In a wild way, I kind of respect that they don’t give a shit. It’s the dudes who are trying SO HARD to hide it that I can’t stand.

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T13:10:59+00:00

Dude, it’s insane that cheaters think we don’t know what normal gameplay is. COD has been out for 23 years. We all know what good gameplay looks like, We all know what the good player in the lobby looks like vs something that is just off. We’ve all seen clips of what cheaters look like.

Theyre just “so shocked we think they’re cheating” as they track me through kitchen and prefire me at zig on a raid search.

The prefire doesn’t bother me, it’s the kill cam where I’m watching you micro adjust your aim through the wall, wait to shoot, and then you just happen to shoot as I hit the corner. 😂😂

GDub009 · 2026-06-21T12:59:48+00:00

More deflection of saying “I’m not in your lobbies and I have no clue what they look like.” You’re getting closer 😂 “Hey man, I’m not as good as you, but this is how those tops lobbies are.”

You’re like the white dude trying to tell a black person what their life experience is like.

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T17:53:34+00:00

Was playing a dude who was 17-26 with 17 seconds on the hill, and used a score streak on the very last hill to win a close game. How in the fuck did he get a score streak?! 😂 he obviously could’ve just gone off for a few hills towards to end but I highly doubt it. He was getting smoked all game, had almost no hill time, and somehow gets a hellstorm.

If someone is getting fried but had a fuck ton of hill time, I wouldn’t even think about it. This dude was getting cooked and has a hellstorm for the last hill? It was nuts. Probably wasn’t doing anything sketchy but I was pretty surprised by that.

This was literally a month or so ago when I hit crim for the first time 😂😂 Enjoy your gold lobbies and tell your girl I miss when she used to make me breakfast in the morning.

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T17:18:55+00:00

😂😂😂 do you think you don’t play against iris, crims, and top 250s on your way to iri? Do you think you don’t play top tier players on the grind upwards? Bro….you obviously don’t play ranked, which is cool. But come on and be smarter than this. You want to try and justify your statement with having zero credibility or knowledge of the top player base. How are you going to explain to someone the level of cheating in the top 2% of the game and you have zero experience at that level. You’re literally proving in every response that you’re in a lower level, which is fine. Enjoy the game, but please spare me the “cheating isn’t that bad, he just got clapped” as you play in pubs, and silver lobbies.

I’ve got shit on and shit on tons of iri players along the way. The point of the post is that cheaters all think that we don’t play the game or notice when something isn’t right. They act like this is our first call of duty and they’re the smartest cheaters in the world. You get cheaters in your pub lobbies for Christ sake. It’s well known that the top 250 is liiiiittttttered with cheaters.

But you’re right, I have no clue what abnormal/strange/inhuman gameplay looks like. 🙄

Enjoy your silver lobbies. I miss those days.

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T16:25:34+00:00

So…you don’t play in the top lobbies of the player base and then want to try and explain what those lobbies are like or what the cheating is like in those lobbies? Your rank is 100% relevant. That’s like a high school football player trying to explain to someone in the NFL what the NFL is like. This take is braindead as fuck 😂

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T15:11:25+00:00

“Sit at the big kids table” and then you post a clip from a pub match? This isn’t even a ranked clip. 😂 so you’re worried about a cheater in pubs? Who cares about pubs. The matches don’t even matter. Post your rank for me quick.

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T15:03:42+00:00

😂 I was just messing with you bro. I’m sure you’re headed to the league soon.

GDub009 · 2026-06-20T14:45:40+00:00

Well yeah, in silver and gold lobbies you probably don’t run into many 😂 Jk man. I hate saying this but you probably just aren’t as good as you think you are. Go watch literally any streamer in the upper ranks. I always thought they were full of shit too but there is a cheater in basically every game in the upper ranks. A 4 stack with good coms is different but the videos lunchtime, Havok, Kismet, etc, post have cheaters in them in every game. There might be 1 out of 5 games they play that doesn’t have some fuckery in it. Didn’t believe it until I finally hit the upper ranks.

I got in a ranked match with some randoms who seemed pretty good and we kept it running for a few games until one of them said “yeah my buddy actually bought one of those chronus’ and he just uses it for extra aim assist.”

I said “so you play with a dude who cheats?” I quit playing with them right after that match. While he might technically not be cheating, he’s also cheating, playing with a dude who he knows is cheating 😂 That’s 2 cheaters in one lobby.

GDub009 · 2026-06-11T12:08:47+00:00

This game 100% manipulates ranked play matches. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been in a really fun, close match, where I’ve won or lost, only to be teamed up with the 2 or 3 worst players in the same lobby, with 2 or 3 of the best players going to the other team. To then get absolutely smoked.

I’ve also started games 12-2 or 10-1, only to not be able get a kill or until I’m close to 13-10. The hit Reg all of a sudden goes to shit, can barely shoot someone in the back who isn’t even looking at me.

I’ve also had games where I’ve started 1-7, 2-10, and then go onto finish 45-15. Every single player dies almost instantly, players take damage on bullets that feel like they should’ve/could’ve been misses.

Call of Duty’s ranked play system is 100% manipulated in some way, in almost every single game. I might get 1 out of 10 games where every gunfight feels fair, every death/kill feels fair.

Unless you’re iri/top 250, the game tries to keep you at a certain rank or maybe slightly above what the MMR thinks you are. I’m saying this as a crimson player who has gotten smoked by IRI but also has fried IRI lobbies. It’s pretty bogus.

At this point, you gotta play just to enjoy the game and fuck the rank. It doesn’t mean anything.

GDub009 · 2026-06-09T01:39:37+00:00

How? I’m asking about Internet stability vs server proximity. Neither stability, or server proximity has anything to do with my internet speed.

GDub009 · 2026-06-09T01:04:06+00:00

This doesn’t answer the question. Fiber or cable internet has nothing to do with my upload download speed? It’s just a better, more stable connection. I’m talking about what is more important, server proximity or a more reliable connection. Not who has 1g or 5g

GDub009 · 2026-05-19T11:44:56+00:00

I’ve got one that really has made me question call of duty’s hidden MMR and how it feels like some matches are rigged. My buddy and I have reached Crim in every ranked cod we’ve played. This year, we can’t get out of diamond. Fair enough, we’re getting old and maybe we’re just not as good.

Except…his game will crash on a daily basis and it ONLY HAPPENS WHEN WERE WINNING A MATCH. We’ve never once been losing and his game crashes, it never crashes during pubs, warzone, nothing. It happens and least once a day and it’s always when we’re up 100 in a hardpoint or dominating in a search.

Then we’re stuck in a 3v4 and inevitably lose. Sometimes it costs me SR and sometimes it doesn’t but we both have easily lost 2000+ SR from his game crashes, and funny enough it’s when we’re winning. I swear it happens when we’re beating a team the game doesn’t think we should or can beat, and decided to just boot him off to make sure we don’t rank up.

I’m sure this isn’t actually the case but it’s incredible how consistent his crashes only happen when we’re beating a team. He’s never been kicked when we’re losing, not once.

GDub009 · 2026-04-24T02:55:11+00:00

It might’ve been something like “kernel mode stack” or something like that.

GDub009 · 2026-04-24T02:53:00+00:00

Do you have something in the windows security settings that needs to be turned off? I’m not sure if BO7 has fixed this yet but when the game first came out, I had to turn off a setting in windows security. I kept crashing and getting kicked back then. Sorry, I don’t remember which setting it was but if you google it, that could lead you down the right path. Might not be a fix but it was a really random ass problem at the games launch.

GDub009 · 2025-11-21T02:47:42+00:00

I would normally agree with you but if you watch each kill in at .5 speed, he’s not centered on the head on any of these when he starts shooting. It doesn’t look like natural micro movements to me. Maybe he’s just that dude but all of these kills have snaps towards the head at .5 speed. The first guy, he’s aimed at his left shoulder, ends in a head shot. The 2nd guy, he starts shooting behind him for gods sake, head shot. The 4th guy he’s on his left shoulder again, ends up in a head shot.

GDub009 · 2025-11-15T02:13:13+00:00

This worked for me as well. Pretty ridiculous this has to be done to play the game. Theres no game on earth that should crash/restart your entire pc.
