Deanimate, cheating of note

#97

"… don’t see anyone up in arms about Unwary… "

Deanimate is the one who teached me how to macro. He even posted a video on this forum to showing how good his macros are. Both pred and fireteam have their own animation cancels glitches to make themselves meta and strongly competitive. They are already in the game and if they are still here after they next update then it means they are okay to use.

I don’t know why Crossbones is making up his own rules on how to play the game when the devs have already decided what mechanics players CAN use. If you can use it then you are allowed to use it.

now now bonesy we’ve already covered this ground. use your reading abilities :)

That’s like saying me canceling being stunned from a parry is the same as you cancelling a reload. Very different issues. But that’s just cherry picking right?

#100

we did use some common sense. besides your a content creator are you not? lets see the video ;)

#101

You also aren’t just cancelling the reload animation, most times you are cancelling the reload entirely and that is totally different. Cancelling the animation would basically be just instant reloads and that would be an issue. So this argument doesn’t even hold water to begin with.

Here check over this thread

Deanimate shows to use Autohotkey to macro good on Pred. He’s a very good teacher for game mechanics.

the power of macros is the power of cheating… always has been always will be.

Doesen’t matter if its different like i said cancel is a cancel all that matters if its too strong and needs to be fixed. And that’s decided by the devs.

If its too strong they will remove it and if the winrates start to change because of this they will either buff or nerf something else to compensate.

Just wait till next patch then whine about something else when things change.

What a dishonest argument. That’s like going into Ark and being like, “Well obviously since I can mesh then it’s totally fair game to mesh raid people because it is in the game.” And make up this whole fallacy in your head that because it is possible to do so means that was obviously the intention of the developers that you could exploit what is most obviously shit that isn’t supposed to happen. If the Predator has a glitch where they got infinite health and it took a while to deal with it by the devs you would actually make the argument that it is totally fair play because it is in the game so obviously that was how it was meant to be played. Only a chronic cheater could concoct that kind of reasoning to justify the fact they can’t play.

An action cancel is not the same as an animation cancel. One cancels an entire action, the other cancels the animation for it to make recovery or the desired effect instantaneous. If you think those are the same you are delusional. And hopelessly so.

The root of the issues discussed in this thread and the macro thread boils down to Illfonic’s poor design and downright poor coding. The reload animation cancel is a great example. A ton of games will let you swap weapons mid reload without completing the reload itself. It’s nothing more than dev incompetence mixed with creating a game designed for consoles as if it would work well on PC as well.

But that is also an action cancel not just an animation cancel because it doesn’t complete the reload regardless. It just cancels it.

it all took place here on the water, cheaterboy couldnt cheat slam me thanks to my surroundings not restricting my movement to being linear, and when he was trying to macro melee me to macro bow me i parried his ass, dodged the arrows and shot him down. was beautiful and i did all that without the aid of nothing. soon as cheaterboy was on the curse of second wind he took off like a full covered green bodied fart in the wind.

Maybe i’m mistaken but I’m pretty sure people can swap weapons mid reload to sustain continuous fire without worrying about the reload delay.

If that is a thing then yeah I would agree that is basically cheating but I myself have never seen it happen. At least nothing I can recall. And even then that still wouldn’t justify actively abusing it as they advocate for. If these animations were meant to be able to be cancelled… they wouldn’t have done the extra work to include the animations and shit to begin with.
