The Flying Fish posted:*closes eyes and places fingers on my temple* *remembers exactly how a piece of software functioned ~10 years ago* The only reason I remember is that a bunch of these jackasses were whining about their plugin getting them banned and I was amused because it didn't have to if they were just able to give enough of a poo poo to not download some sketchy script from god knows where.

See, 'always' isn't really the case. I remember when Punkbuster first hit Counterstrike back in the Beta...6(?) days. It was really great at catching people who ran weeks-old versions of the big hacks back then, but every time Punkbuster would update, the hacks would have a workaround ready within hours, and then it would be another week before Punkbuster caught back up. It was utterly useless as a serious anti-cheat. Punkbuster blames this on not having direct engine/source access, which is why they and Valve split up in the first place - Valve wouldn't let PB have unfettered access to the source code.

VAC was really terrible at the start too, and even today cheaters always have updated cheats fairly quickly after VAC or punkbuster start catching them. Like someone said earlier, it's a lot easier to make a new cheat than it is to write code to catch you using the cheat. It's always a game of catch up with anti-cheat.

More common reason to people seeing no damage done yet saw blood spill before the died is the fact that your killer was someone else nearby. You did infact damage someone that was shooting at you, but it was not him who killed you.

PB does have IP and HWID bans, though they aren't hard to get around. But I could be completely wrong, and maybe VAC is more effective now. I know when VAC first came out it was much worse than PB, but that would be expected with an anticheat that has been around for 2 years vs a brand new one. Maybe it's just because VAC takes like a week or longer to ban someone.

I've seen FMPONE reassure people that the rotate times are the same as dust2, but still...it feels big. I've only had the chance to run around on an empty server because there weren't any servers running it in Australia when I played earlier, I guess I won't be able to say for sure until I try 5 v 5 on it.

I really want to say there's a lot of wasted space on the map, but until people know how to effectively play it it's not really fair to say that. It's not a bad map by any means, it's just doesn't really have anything to set it aside from others. And the rotate from B to A is quite long if you go through the T half of the map, mostly because when you get to A there's about 10 different spots where a T could be hiding.

The one guy who leaks forum posts from cheat forums complaining about ban waves is my favorite thing about CS at the moment. It's sort of hilarious that the cheats have DRM that's more intrusive than the actual game:

stickyfngrdboy posted:What's a HWID Short for hardware identification. When you install Windows, unique HWID is made for your PC and it contains information about hardware components of the system. Each 10 days after a reboot new HWID will be generated from an activated Windows copy to check against the one generated initially to see if the Windows copy is still running on the same PC. If the difference is too big between two HWIDs, Microsoft can start loving with licence.

Would spoofing be the only way to make the installed components different enough to cause windows licensing issues while using the same windows install?

Licensing problems can happen if your start to replace/remove/add literally any components - sounds cards, RAM, storage, optical drives, Ethernet adapters - you name it. Microsoft have done they homework so that their system does not poo poo itself when poor child adds 2 GB of RAM, but bunch of minor changes can initiate shenanigans. I am not sure about now, but back in the days the only way to resolve this remotely was to phone Microsoft and explain about the new hardware.

FMPONE posted:This is a big pet peeve of mine. "I haven't played it, but..." type stuff. I HAVE played it (twice already in an actual match) and the rotation times are too long. I'm not saying it's a bad map, I don't think it is, but without a mid or some way to not have to go all the way around the map to rotate, yes, it's too long. At the pro level it might be fine, pro players know how and when to rotate. But in Goonmans (or MatchMaking) most players wouldn't have the knowledge of how early they need to rotate to effectively combat the maps rotation times. I initially thought this would make the map very T sided. But the sites are very easy to hold which actually tends to return the balance to the CTs anyway as long as they know how to rotate. That said, I think the lack of a mid is a big downside to any map.

I think in goonman as T, it just comes down to splitting A or splitting B and stop using default strats. If the CT's play into this and take extremely passive defensive spots and yielding ground before you die would give them a huge bias. They'll be giving their team more time to rotate, to reinforce numbers. Since T's also have a harder job rotation, the bomb is going to be more committed to a location, so a rotation can be as time consuming as a CT rotation. This means faking could be an actual strat again, like it is in Inferno which also has a long rotation, so there'll be a lot more emphasis on not dying CT side calling numbers and more importantly calling the bomb, which never loving gets called in goonmans. Basically people need to learn to play as a team, which i'm all for. I might have a use in goonmans if people learn how to listen to strats. One part of the map I didn't see anyone exploit was the part that might aswell be called mid. Smoking the window and double door gives you really open access to this and with more smokes at CT spawn gives you access to a 3 way split on A or if you go underpass to CT spawn take B from behind. The only problem is having 5 people commit to this and not try and embellish a perfectly simple strat. This actually goes for every strat.

A funny thing from the leak, to me, because their thinking is that "the majority of CS players hack", which is ridiculous. Yeah dude, valve is refraining from banning cheaters because they're afraid of the lost business.  Hasn't valve always been upfront about the VAC ban delay being so that you can't tell exactly what got you caught?

So, I don't know about anyone else, but I got tired of always having to find the goon group to join chat so I made a shortcut which joins the chat for you. It was super easy to make, but I thought someone else might find it useful as well. Just make a new .txt document on your desktop, and copy/paste these two lines in to it. @ECHO OFF START steam://friends/joinchat/103582791432325344 Save it as whatever.bat Then when you want to join the chat, you just open it.

Opening crates is dumb. Most of us probably think of ourselves as too classy and intelligent to play the lottery or go to the casino, but opening crates is the same thing. Except less fun and with worse odds than going to the casino and playing some card games.
