    hey guys, glad you are enjoying Unmuted!
    I am seeing a lot of comments about the audio balance in this episode, just wanted to apologize about that!
    The issue is EliGE's gameplay and voice audio tracks were not recorded separately during this session so there wasn't too much I could do during certain moments where the gun sounds were overpowering.
    Thanks for your patience, and keep an eye out for more future episodes! Here's the playlist if you wish to turn notifications on for it specifically:

    Even in EU mm it seems like at the very least 1 in 15 games has a cheater. That's just my experince because leetify sends a notification if a player you played with or against gets banned and that's just banned cheaters so the real amount is probably closer to 1 in 10 games.

  • @ThePatchelist
    @ThePatchelist Рік тому +2

    While I don't doubt that NA MM is a lot more broken in terms of cheaters, the EU MM experience is still beyond fucked form a GE standpoint seen. Might be different in lower brackets, but for us, a lobby of several 20+ year CS veterans, all global without any downranks aside from inactivity inbetween, 100% certain good trust, the game sometimes is just unplayable. Up to 8/10 games with absolute bullshit cheaters is the normal here.
    One of the big problems about this, aside the lack of fucks that valve gives about ANY of this, is actually IMO the community and it's ignorance towards it. Loads of people will just claim that it's low TF (which is simply not possible) as they have allegedly never met a cheater in years. This leads to the public thought that everything is not only fine but AC wise working as intended, while OW and stuff are just not working at all but rather being abused.
    We have literal lists full of players that were at some point rage hacking, spinbotting etc., some with thousands of dollars in inventory value, including FROM TWO+ YEARS AGO, which have not been banned to this day. This shit has to change.
    I've tried to make a video about it (which considering my channel size got a few thousand views) or the occasional thread about this issue, but a pretty much non exisitng name in the space is just irrelevant. I wish there would be more coverage about this particular issue by bigger channels pointing at it to at some point force valves hand.. As someone who grew up with CS, this shit is not just heartbreaking but also aggrevating AF.
    So this video is really cool as the issue is openly being talked about by a pro, which is shining a light on it and always a good thing. Thanks for that!

      The same as always. There are the ones who have the high end software that go undetected for long time or always. Then you get spikes thru time whenever a few free or cheap ones get available. So whenever you see a bunch in game or get caught, that is just the spike of a few trying out cheap or free things. Sometimes it is the biggest name or just a nobody, but 100% they are there at all levels. However they are in all competitive things so you either have to accept it and use them to get better or drop the game. When I was young and traveled for cs, playing vs cheaters was almost my fav. It sucked but the learning was massive. Best times are winning matches with your team vs a team of cheaters. Sometimes they give up hiding it, still doesn't make them any better.

      What's ur rank? I'd guess cheaters in mm are in the higher ranks, last saw a cheater when I played with a friend in casual who doesn't have prime, my peak is sem currently s4/se and no cheaters once in 100+ hours

    Mirage is the worst map of all. I can't wait till it's gone from the current pool.
