    IMPORTANT CORRECTION: World Preview, the mod arturz was using, is actually a legal mod and did not contribute to the run being rejected. Apologies for the mistake!
    In this video, we take a look at the new rejected Minecraft world record, break down the run itself, and try to decide whether it was a fake speedrun. Thanks to all our viewers for being patient with us during the long break between videos - our uploads should be more consistent from now on.

    This is the story of a Minecraft player who possibly cheated to get a faked Minecraft speedrun world record, and not the story of their friend who did not cheat to get a faked Minecraft speedrun world record. Fake Minecraft speedruns are insane, almost as insane as this description! If you want to see a fake cheated Minecraft 1.16 world record speedrun, this is the video for you!

The reason why wp is legalized is because it is a resetting mod and does not affect the gameplay segment of the run, since having early knowledge about the seed during world load doesn't give any advantages, it just improves reset efficiency, especially for single instance runners.

    Ok no that Buff thing is like the sketchiest thing i've ever saw as a sponsor. If its not a crypto miner or key logger, then what is the product? How does the company make money? If its profitable for every user then the company has to be losing money. The only way a business model like that works is if the product has a secondary feature. Think Twitter being technically free but selling your data. So my advice is dont download the shady app which claims it will make you money. It's probably got a few shadowy purposes you wont like.

      And here is the catch - it simply isn't. They probably make money by showing their users ads. Apps like these usually have high minimum cashout. So high that 90% of the userbase will give up before reaching it, leaving their "earned" money in the hands of Buff. The profits from those 90% people are more than worth paying the remaining 10%.

They're doing this all on a volunteer basis, it's incredible dedication to keeping the leaderboards fair and runners in check.

      Minecraft must be the easiest game to cheat. Thanks to very good mod support the game itself is almost open source. I started learning Minecraft modding about 6 month ago, and I can see how easy someone can cheat. For example you can force game to generate specific seed like it was random seed, or slightly adjust drop rates. We caught dream because he was streaming all day long and people were able to grab statistics from multiple runs. But you can make mod to adjust drop rate only in specific run. You may spend some time thinking how to make cheat not to leave any logs, but this is not very hard task.

      Honestly a lot of cheaters are high skilled runners as well. This goes for every speedrunnig category. They know they can get wr so they cheat because they are frustrated. It happens a lot tbh.
      In all honestly I always say just ban cheaters from leader board to resolve stuff like this so you don't just reject the runs later.

    I think if there was any cheating going on, it was with loot rate. For a 50% drop rate, he got really lucky with the rods, not to mention having the tnt and iron in the treasure chest as other examples. A lot of his dice rolls were really in his favor, so I wouldnt be shocked if foul play happening happened with those numbers

    • @BlueCyann
      @BlueCyann Рік тому +10

      Nah, the mod comments about the log files strongly suggest that he repeatedly played the same seed until he got the result he wanted. The practical result is the same as if the rates were altered directly.
      The other stuff you mention really isn't suspicious in and of itself. Mapless buried treasure is the dominant overworld strat right now, and that's exactly because it usually gives you enough iron and food to complete a run, plus TNT as a bonus. You will see comparable nether enters several times a day from any top runner. Really great blaze rod rates are a bit less common, but these guys play a lot. Watch Crookst or Catjam or Reignex or whoever else play for a week and you'll see it happen a few times.

      I'm not sure but I think because it gives you time to think and plan your moves while who doesn't have strong computer cannot do multy-instances..
      There were runs where the player would pause the game to look around and that gave him time to think and plan the next step - and it became a hot argument if this should be allowed at all because it is abusing the rules (or not).
      There is two time for the runs for a reason: the whole time where your pauses, downloading and everything is counted. And the retime when only the gameplay counts. One reason of this because there are players with weaker setups, slower computers, it might take more time for them to load into the nether etc etc, and the other reason for the longer (all achievement) runs where we should allow the player to take a piss in the 3-4-6-8+ hour long game..

    Sure, technically it's possible this was legitimate, but at some point you just gotta admit that it's not possible to prove every single faked run IS fake, so you have to employ some more wide-net methods that *could* snag a legitimate run, but likely won't, such as "This guy cheats all the damn time, what's the actual chance he booted up the game and got the new WR in a few tries, legitimately? Very low? OK, fuck it."
    Much preferable to a faked run staying up forever as the WR just because nobody was able to conclusively show it despite kinda figuring it's gotta be fake.
