      @@SwissExperiments True, I work in cyber sec (Specifically malware development) and have experimented with game cheats (never actually cheated on an online match but have experimented with EAC bypasses and hardware ID spoofing to bypass bans on test machines) and the funny thing is his skills in cheat developing are also useful in cyber security because bypassing anti cheat systems are so similar to bypassing antiviruses. He literally could make 75k$ dollars a month from that if he was good enough at it simply by using his skills for good
      one example is we use indirect syscalls and custom kernel drivers to bypass antiviruses and in cheat development they also use indirect syscalls and kernel drivers for the same purpose of bypassing security solutions
      or he could just sell and make more cheats and make money off of that like he is doing too i guess. But yeah it is really ironic ngl

      well hes the worst sort of cheater. obviously every cheater lacks brain and empathy but theres atleast some who can articulate well, which make you actually question things. like the late "for developers to make the game better" line like no bro youre not doing it for that, youre only doing it because you have a smal weenor complex and dont care about other people. "what you dont want done to yourself dont do to others" is a good saying that unfortunatly many dont follow. he says him getting cheated on would suck yet it doesnt make him rethink his decisions, true brain damage.
      guy is playing apex for years now and as a legit player would only be a silver, even gold would be sad. im nothing but a filthy casual either who plays some games every now and then while this guy spends ~6h a day being ass. sad creature.

      It makes perfect sense. Cheaters cheat because it’s the way they get fun from the game. For some, the fun is in getting better and improving. For some, it’s just playing casually. For others, cheating at the game makes it interesting because it gives them a little edge, and that’s the fun they derive from the game, is to utilize the little edge they have, to win against people without the edge. It’s the “heh heh you tried hard and lost I cheated and won haha” feeling they are looking for. Massively insecure people. The point of playing games for them is not to compete, it’s to get an edge over people because as he said “life is unethical” so why not cheat, right? Once it gets to the “youre ruining it for everyone” that’s actually where they derive more pleasure. It literally does make the game better…for THEM.

    And I can somewhat respect developers of the cheat software, they did it themselves, they have a certain skill, and an incredible one. Despite the act of cheating, they have invested a lot of effort, getting useful skills in the process.
    But I despise common users of the software. Those are simply parasites, looking for easy times.

      How is this argument even considered? We make competitive games to start from zero and get past through everyone else doing the exact same thing with only our wits and skills - everything else (in a fair game) is provided to us or there's an equal chance for it to be provided to us (in the case of this genre).
      Cheating is a shortcut and a tremendously unfair one. Just because it happens one field you are admittedly good at overlaps with games doesn't mean you get to learn skills there - where many others might not be qualified to do the same and just apply them to games in means unfair to literally everyone else but cheaters and get a free pass for it.
      Or did we forget what games are all about in the first place?

      Mande has probably no experience in programming and has absolutely no idea about reverse engineering at all. The knowledge required for what he is doing is beyond all the hours that Mande has every put to the game to 'get better'. There's been a lot of cases where the company hires directly people that have proven to know how to hack a game or a server infrastructure. I just hope this is yet another example of that, but for some reason I don't see that happening.

They just started working on anti cheat again, they just mentioned ab adding a new map which they’ve had in data banks for 2 years plus. If a cheater running rampant is actually making them care because it’s affecting the pro players in the game, then they have no choice but to make it playable.

    People who never cheated in games will never get the logic. There are a lot of categories of people who buy cheats and there are different reasons for them to do so. Streamers - getting money by streaming, showing that they are "good", Legit cheaters - people that just want to squeeze a bit more out of their gameplay by either having map hack, smooth aimbot, w.e., HvHers - people that buy cheats for the sake of doing hack vs hack battles, cheating to beat cheaters.
    I understand a cheat dev like Destroyer2009 cause I've been friends with a big cheat dev on CS:GO and basically their logic is the same, they have a legit account where they don't cheat at all, and a lot of cheating accounts.
    They do it because it's fun and they are making money and they learn coding. It's a nothing to lose situation if you are commited enough, just like Destroyer2009, he said himself he learned it in 3-4 years, and that's dedication.

    - "The game is free." No, the game is not free, you are wasting your time (often without pleasure) to entertain other people who bring money to this company.
    - "You're ruining their game." You too, Mande, when you kill another low-skill player that the game threw into your game for your entertainment, and another video. When you play full stack Pred team, you basically do the same thing as him.
    - Guy has bad English and is too young, which is why his arguments are so crumpled. As a gold player, I can explain what he means. Playing at a low rank is "boring" because the game throws you into masters+ lobby for their entertainment, and this game is not much different from playing against cheaters.

      Yeah your overthinking it. It’s a video game, completely different than life values. It’s just fun to cheat in games. I used to when I was a little kid on csgo and Minecraft and it’s generally just pretty enjoyable. I never have on apex though now that I’ve grown up

    this aged well, but i frustrated you keep asking the same question. he is hacker, cheater, and it's his job... why you keep asking his question "why u hack?"
    he is good guy tbh, EA & Respawn should learn and making better anti-cheat. this guy single handedly taking down ALGS NA Final from his code skill.
    yet they keep making recolor shit and stupid heirloom price.

    I’m sorry but listening to the tsm guy have Reddit takes on repeat is kinda cringe. He’s treating the cheater like a kid and is almost mocking him with every question. Of course it’s fun to cheat otherwise people wouldn’t do it. It feels good to run over people even if you don’t win. It’s not about telling yourself mentally you are the best at all… the truth is it’s simply fun. With that said, cheaters should fuck off bc the downsides of everyone cheating = a ruined game.

    prime reason why ethics needs to be mandatory in school and esp in the technological field. learning code and using it for whatever you want just because you can can have heavy repercussions and i sincerely hope he (and his friends) learns this lesson one day. while it is just a game, i find it genuinely sad he doesn't give a shit about what he's doing to other very real people and has no interest in fairness, only selfish gain. that and the warped sense of superiority he feels because of the advantages gained by cheating will bleed into other areas of his life. excusing his own behaviour because "1000s of other cheaters" doesn't erase the fact that he is part of the problem.

    Respawn should hire him just like in the movie "Catch Me If You Can" ending scene.

    Most of his points aren't wrong. It's morally reprehensible to cheat, but it's not as though you're forced to play legitimately. You have the freedom to act however you want. If you aren't biased towards any party, you will see that's all this video was about. There was no yelling, no interruptions apart from Mande almost cussing him out, and no third party influencing anybody's responses (excluding chat). It's truly beautiful.

    Wait so did he buy anything from the collection event??

    finding all the information to manipulate the code... I really understand why he is using his cheats... iam impressed

    7:43 No he wont, I can guarantee that will never happen. Breaking software like this is what these coders live for. As a matter of fact this is probably going into his portfolio.
    The game's gone to shit, Mande is just projecting at this point cause he's forced to play it for a job, and now is regretting it.
    Cheaters suck but idk if this video was it chief, just makes it more popular.

    • @Shagvloei

      Normal gamers wanna know who and what cheaters are. This video gives a great example of it. So its a good vid. Mande just wants to confront their mindset even if it doenst help. This cheatrrguy contradicts himself over and over.

    someone has to make him realize hes 18 years old and he already has coded cheats that can basically fuck up ea , like how isnt that winning, he would find a job and make a lot of money out of it being so young and being capable of doing such things
