because its 800x600 upscaled to 1080p so it fill his monitor instead of playing in a tiny window?

I heard stuttering in source can be caused by all sorts of stuff. Old audio/gpu drivers, controllers/peripherals plugged in, FPS being too far above monitor refresh rate (try fps_max 59/60), getting out of bed the wrong side, etc

Have you tried 800x600 with black bars? Feels really good to play on and has the best crosshair out of any resolution as a bonus (style 4, size 2, gap -2).

For sure; he's posting "look what happened to me how terrible" on reddit.

It's all good schadenfreude nonetheless.

speaking of cheating, i just found out about vibranceGUI, is this considered cheating on an ethical level?

would valve ever consider it such (given their history of how they run VAC)?

Every time I face a cheater in MM (and I'm 100% sure of it) I add them to my vacstat.us list. About half of them just got banned.

Digital Vibrance is A-OK, should never be relevant to VAC. For example, Ambient Occlusion in nVidia Control Panel used to allow you to see through smokes on the Source engine. They can't enforce that kind of abuse.

I wish. If you've read said "popular rage cheat"'s forums, Valve have started to weed out hackers into their own queues by confining people with extraordinarily high elo to play with each other only. Doubt the wave will make much difference to the level of play at higher ranks for legitimate players, as much as I'd like to get global.

Interesting quote on that reddit thread. Hacker whine, or legit unspoken new thing for MM?

Is there anything out there that would just check against your recently played games? I'm curious if/when I've played against or with a cheater but putting together a list of possible suspects as I play seems a little goofy. That said, the placebo of a ban wave is enough for me to get back into MM most of the time and have a much easier time going up against teams.

They tend to roll back elo changes from matches with recently VAC banned people in them. If your wins went down, then you probably were in a match with a cheater on your team.

I think that only happens if you lose to a cheater or win with one you lobbied with.

There was some website that would keep track of it for you, you just needed to add their steam profile and it would put them in the list and out would email you off they got vac'd. I'm not sure what it was called, let me try to find it.

So I caved in and bought a 144hz screen and now the game feels so smooth, it's amazing.

Is there any reason why I would want to use 120hz over 144hz?

Wonder if I should try to level that LE to LEM if people think the ranking up is easier atm.. honestly MM is so poo poo I don't really want to play with hackers 24/7 though.

If you have one of these, or similar, then yes - you may want to lock your screen to 120 Hz in order to enable LightBoost, it, to simplify, eliminates any sort of motion blur.

I played some MM to get my rank up recently. In three games there were: 2 leavers, 1 cheater, 2 mic spam music kids on my team.

Don't do it.
