The true story behind the first cheater in Rocket League
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 жов 2022
- The idea that there are no cheaters in Rocket League is a reassuring, if not naive thought. But just because it hasn’t happened before, doesn’t mean it isn’t possible - and there are other ways to manipulate, deceive, and otherwise cheat the Rocket League community...

I've been cheating in Rocket League since the game has come out. I have over 6500 hours and still play like a silver. Best hacks on the market.
We miss 2017 Jon, we all do
🤣🤣🤣
Where does one acquire this power?
Hey Jon, if you see this I wanna run 2s. add me. My epic is, one shiny carrot
hi jon
“And I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for you meddling kids” has never felt more true
He kinda did it to himself, if he toned it down a bit he would probably still be going
would have
this comment is gold
Would "have"
You beat me to my comment 😭😭
Changing "jimmy's" name. Bro I'm always just so impressed with your integrity in just everything you do. It's such an admirable trait.

@@BadLuckFPV there's a big difference between admiration and meat riding

Wow, that ending is beautiful. I'm not deep into Rocket League anymore but from time to time I gravitate towards this channel and the care and quality that is poured into these videos for a game you clearly love is amazing.
Same here I dont play or watch any rl videos anymore but I knew sunless wouldn't disappoint. The end was epic 👌😅
Honestly, I never thought anyone would be able to actually “cheat” in rocket league
well he wasn’t cheating in multiplayer
true its near impossible in the games real way to be played in a competitive sense. but freestyling is something similar to trickshotting, always gonna be people who post illegitimate clips
His name is Shimmy
@@mintyexe- Lol so close to Jimmy 😂
@@botdog370 since there are bots like nexto, which is a AI that plays on High GC Level, i guess creators of this could use this in ranked matches when injected client side.
I love when sunless does these documentary type videos.
ong but i found this vid lowkey funny
Fr bro it makes video games feel so offical
Ur 100% right man sunless does op docs lmao
Yes! It's different but also professional. I fuck with it. I mean bravo the guy still making videos about RL🤣
Sameee
Okay, but exploiting the code to achieve results like that is impressive in its own right. Would’ve been something really cool and unique if he wasn’t a liar.
True
if he had no prior programming experience, then sure, it was quite a feat. but any programmer could do this if they really needed to. it's actually quite pathetic to go to such lengths to decieve someone.
@@patakk8145 are you a programmer?
@@mewan5360 yes, and even though I've never worked with this kind of stuff, I'm pretty sure I could muster something up in a day
@@mewan5360 its probly not hard to just change some parameters
Sunless should be an RL court judge and do a Judge Judy like mini series
Tbh based and professional way to handle the whole situation, cheater, and larger community as a whole. Shout out to him and the people that caught the cheater.
The fact that sunless took the extra step to censor jimmy’s real name shows how much he cares for this community
He didn’t change it much lol
@@lydonbrewster1178 wait who was it actually
@@lucasceleste4743 shimmy
@@lydonbrewster1178 thanks
True
Nytrodryft and Taku actually convinced an entire community that a strongly supported player was cheating, but also found evidence for it. That's called determination, and more people need to applaud them 👏👏👏
twin
triplets (sorry i lied.)
I'm sure all the energy and patience came from jealousy lol
that’s not what courage means but ok
Thats called Virginity Level 999
Sunless’ story telling ability and organization is top notch. Great video and a beautiful way to end it. Those guys are the true legends.
I thought sunless was about to say “the cheaters name isn’t Jimmy, that cheater, was me” 😂
Amazing work on this one, both by you and of course Nytrodrift and Taku. The Freestyle Detectives!
Kid
Amazing work on your TAS video aswell
Hey sludge I like your videos bro
Mr Sledge I loved your recent video
They should get a special player title lol
As the first name listed in probably one of the top 5 worst apologies of all time, I can confirm just how manipulative he was to his close friends. This video captures everything so well, and the twist at the end is so thoughtful. Love it :)
If you don't mind me asking, did you end up making up with Jimmy or have you completely cut ties?
@@notheories9012 as far as I know they cut ties. I saw some stuff on discord cuz I’m friends with some freestylers and I’m in some servers that had talked about it. Could be wrong though
Glad you liked it and sorry that happened to you jax.
Well said jax
I hope you are mentally better now
I have been watching your videos for sometime now man... you are truly one of the best creators on UA-cam and in the RL space. The respect you show when you touch a lot of topics is amazing and commendable. It shows how much you care about the community and your work. Thank you for the great content as always!
Honestly that could not have been put together any better, I’m so glad my friend told me about your channel so I can watch your amazing vids, keep up the good work👍
When this all came out I was praying someone would make a documentary about it, insane vid as always!
Incredible video

Kinda lame to make a documentary about car soccer lol

Hello! :)
Virge is one of my favorite people in this game. Hes so wholesome and genuine, has been since day 1.
He genuinely has the coolest comp style I've ever seen. Him and evample are my 2 favs
hi virge
yes
I didn’t even realise his name wasn’t Jimmy until the end of the video. What a chad move - I am mindblown.
I love the way you make these videos into a small documentary!! Keep it up Sunless!
This is one of your best videos imo. The story was so intriguing the whole way through, felt like it was straight out of some kind of mystery movie. And the icing on the cake of not giving the guy attention, hell yeah. Awesome vid Sunless.
Yes I agree, it gave me wirtual vibes
Both of you are new
I agree as hard as humanly possible.
@@DavidPerez-xc9ve it's the sandrock video for me

@@TheBeast-qo2xz hi 😊
I think it’s good. With challenges comes change and growth. I think the freestyle scene will continue to mature and grow together.
@@SunlessKhan yea
@@SunlessKhan such an odd event to happen, I always thought rocket league was unhackable competitively
I gotta say, I kinda forgot I was on youtube. This episode just had the feel like this was a TV investigation. great work on the video, major props to the editor and sunless for all the work into this video!!
Love the twist at the end, keep the cheater from being seen or heard, perfect way to limit the impact and not fall into the trap the cheater has laid. Same problem in Gran Turismo 7 and Sim Racing games, the ones who exploit/cheat/drive-dirty get into the videos of the big guys, which gives them notoriety and then encourages and emboldens them to continue their bad behaviour. Gotta break the chain, which is what you have done here masterfully. Great vid, great story. One of your best I think!
Taku and Nytrodryft are just out here casually saving the integrity of one of the biggest, and greatest games to ever exist. Well played.
Rocket League is GOAT becoz there are no cheaters i really hope it stays the same my whole life
@Siddhant Garg apparently there is a recent cheat that assists demos. lol look it up if you haven't heard about it. Kinda crazy but not a game breaking cheat. If you're champ+, it is easy to dodge by jumping, but sucks for the lower ranks though...
"biggest, and greatest" lmao. nice joke
Rocket League is extremely fun, it's a great game. Biggest and greatest though, I don't think so.
this comment means you need to touch grass unfortunately
good job and ty for letting me help with the video :D
The worst part is that he was actually kind of good at freestyling
What was his name
@@glahboomed Jimmy
Facts still a goat

Obviously not ey 🤣
Another banger video essay, nice job sunless!
I'd never heard of this story before this point, and big props for leaving the cheater anonymous. This has gotta be one of your best videos to date. Thank you sunless.
its shimmy i honestly dont know why sunless censored the name when everyone was talking about shimmy when the news first came out + the discord and everything literally has shimmy in the name
@@noirbebop well it's not for censoring, it's for not giving him credit and that's fine
And here I am thinking their name was actually Jimmy 💀
Honestly, mad respect to Nytrodryft and Taku for putting in that much time and effort into this situation. Proud of them both
I am glad that you put the effort in to prevent the cheater from getting any attention with the name editing. Another good video Sunless, I always enjoy your content
Best twist ending. Jimmy wasn't Jimmy. lol. I love it. :)
jimmy was shimmy
Dude, your documentary videos are so fun to watch. It's awesome to be able to learn a little more about the history of Rocket League, but you also manage to present it in such a fun way as well. Can't wait for the next one
I remember playing during this and I was like wtf this dude is insane then when it came out he was cheating I was like "holy I thought it was real"
That's the coolest story I've ever heard
How long ago was this
And then they clapped...
whats the guy name
@@stockxsupport4330 it would ruin the purpose of sunless hiding his name if I said lol
Very entertaining, and mature with that. I never regret having discovered your channel.
The reveal at the end of "oh ya, his name isn't 'Jimmy' " and showed the edits for that fake name. PEAK!! The writing, slight twist and details are why I love sunless videos. I'm not even a friend of him pretending writing a fake review
Minor point at 6:05 - TAS don't involve using AI, they just record your inputs and let you go back and edit them, allowing you to create a perfect shot more easily.
Noticed that too, thought they were talking about some new AI way for speedrunning but then it was TAS.
It is artificial intelligence tho? Using a computer program to allow you to hit clips is AI
@@doctor_puff4527 no it is not
@@doctor_puff4527 AI would be the computer making decisions
@@doctor_puff4527 no its not if i make a program to do something its not AI as im telling it what to do if the computer did it without me telling it to do that its AI

been a lot of banger vids lately, keep it up!
Man your production quality has improved so much from when you were first growing as a channel. You really are the spiritual successor to LoR. Good stuff sunless
LoR?
This is the best video you have put out in a while. Love these story style essays. Keep up the great work. I love the dedication to the research.
Love these type of videos
I appreciate your videos. There is a lot more cheaters than that. But I am happy that you caught one. The video just started but I am very interested in what happens.
He just has a really good gaming chair trust

Nah it's just his gamer juice
Ok Arcade Ass
This video really does a perfect job of explaining everything simply, I also like that you brought the 2 touch to light, which surprisingly nobody knows about. What was really keeping him from suspicion was how close his unaware friends and teammates were with him in general, but I think I should have been thinking something was up when he would almost exclusively play doubles with one teammate, who was probably one of the only people in on it. It was interesting to see how a single player could raise montage standards so sharply like that, and it was kinda demotivating seeing someone just fly away with the skill ceiling. There was a time where people kinda just didn't reverse cam or nocam on shots because it was boring compared to what he did.
Amazing video! Loved the twist on the real heroes!
I absolutely love these style of videos as if they were like a mini tv series on news networks or something
Very well thought out video, was cool to see all the efforts that taku and nytro went through to get to the eventual conclusion. Still couldn’t believe it when I found out he faked clips. Also I would love to see some more stuff on the noflipping side of freestyling, it’s something that hasn’t really been explained in videos and there is a lot of in depth stuff around it which could make for a really cool video. 👍
i agree with otis
What was the name of the guy

@@scare.3982 wym scare
Friends as a use of defense 😂
and his friends didnt even know lmao
They aren't "friends".. people that cheat like this don't have friends in real life. They're just people online that were impressed by his deceit.
We didnt even know any of it, we trusted our friend, but oh well we were screwed over lol
@@hhaste yes we r lol most of us r still friends with him
The "Jimmy" twist at the end got me good. Awesome video as always sunless!!
I'm roughly ten days and two thousand comments late, but I just wanna say that I really appreciate Sunless for posting both friendly silliness with his buddies and documentaries (such as this video or the one on the Queso Save) that can be understood even by people who are not already super involved in "the scene". So... thank you!
Yeah I've never played rocket league but sunless and rocket sledge have made me try to pick it up. Being someone that's used to Fps or RPGs I can understand the controls at all but I'm trying
Knowing who this is, Sunless calling him Jimmy is funny as hell 😂
fr 😭
what's his real name on youtube ?
@@mirceasavu shimmy
IKR! lmaooo
I love the way you approached the name of the individual. Giving them neither recognition nor hate was the best way to go about it
Bro this video was so well put together I can almost feel the emotions coming inside me

The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a quick building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.

yeah you're right denden

Love the rocket league documentary style
Glad this finally got covered, I was in the evidence discord p early and it is a really wild situation
insane plot twist at the end, you're really a good one keep it up 💪
TAS was (and still kind of is) a big thing in Trackmania as well. It was used as a tool to assist speedruns and get as close as possible to perfect exectuion. Nowadays its used more as a 'bar setter' to see how perfect you, as a human can get to near perfect.
If you want to see how TAS was abused. Look up "The Biggest Cheating Scandal in Trackmania History" by Wirtual
Wow, I'm surprised someone mentioned Trackmania with TAS.
Good comparison but Riolu cheated by slowing down the game with cheat engine which is same same but different
@@KanataGamer Riolu didn't use TAS tools, but Trabadia and Skycrafter certainly did
Man Im so happy someone mentioned Trackmania, I've been playing it since it came out, also Im still a noob
@@KanataGamer It's... not different though, TAS can use anything from an auto clicker to a frame by frame program. It's in the name, Tool Assisted Speedrun.
Cheating in rocket has never crossed my mind
Sunless your story telling is amazing
bro your intros are so crazy good
Congratulations on coming up with yet another original amazing idea and presenting it only like you can. This was a great episode.
What about all those guys who say "cheating" when they drive behind their teammate during a kickoff?
The guy with Jimmy as his steam ID: "Am I just a joke to you?"
So interesting! I like "documentaries" like that 🙌
Rocket leagues community integrity is so unmatched and is why it will always be my favorite game
There’s more toxic players in RL than any other game I’ve ever played...what are you talking about.

@@jl3laze86 I'm joking ffs
@@royoRL It's a damn joke
Great video as always. Just one thing I wanted to add: TAS has (afaik) nothing to do with AI. You perform all the moves yourself but in slow motion and stitch the best parts together for a "perfect" run.
I love how Sunless just casually drops a cinematic masterpiece with no warning.
honestly, i know what jimmy did was bad and all, but really well thought out. it takes a next level of mind to even think of what he did. not saying the part with his friends was good. but the fact that he took the script and was able to tweak so many things is honestly incredible
As a new RL player and someone who takes game integrity very seriously I can't help but thank the people like Nytrodryft and Taku enough. While watching this video and hearing them break down how they were able to catch him cheating was soooo refreshing. The saying is good guys finish last. But in reality, bad guys never finish. Better late than never.
production on this tho *cheffs kiss*
The last bit where you showed us you didn’t put his real name gave me mad respect bro. Awesome vid💯
He didn’t deceive his friends, they were in on it.
Stop lying.
@@LukeSaward I think in the bis they said that his friends(atleast most of them) helped him like when people got suspicious his friends would come along and support him
@@LukeSaward it's been proven lmao
When you notice a lot of cheating throughout different games, you begin to see that, despite the lack of authenticity which is a problem in-and-of-itself, the consequence is that these things can then be more detectable in the future and stop this from happening so often/at all. That's the part I choose to focus on. I look forward to a brighter future in the RL community!
I love Sunless’ video essay
The end is the best plot twist I've seen in a UA-cam video.
