Here is Riot Games senior anti cheat analysts opinion on that turbo retards "cheat detection" AI.
Not even joking, it looks at rotation speeds to determine if someone is cheating by assuming 500°/sec is beyond human capability. Even on 35cm/360 I can do far more than that.
Bottom of the barrel retardation that one.
I finally watched that video (and a response video he made to another video). I missed the 500 degree per second thing but yeah... the heuristics he seemed to be picking were very arbitrary. What's even wilder is that his demo video of his own gameplay was controller. Towards the end there's a throwaway line about how his tool will detect cheaters regardless of controller or m+k. Which on its face is a farce. If your tool doesn't flag the aim assist from console COD as unnatural, how does it propose to capture 'soft aim' which is the current Catgirl accusation.
Aside from that his explanations weren't particularly clear... the bit I was most confused by was his legs/torso/head ratio... The implication is that if you don't aim at legs enough you're a cheater. I'm pretty sure I've had rounds of say running around on COD4 vacant without aimint at someone's legs.
There is also a weird bit about how it wouldn't be fair to show the full Catgirl video in his tool or something because it was trained on COD data, but also it still proves Catgirl is cheating? And that he thought someone else was cheating but his tool 'cleared' them. So his tool isn't ready for prime time, it issues a fuzzy 'trust score' number, and yet it's also 100% reliable in flagging cheaters. It doesn't really add up.
Speaking of his COD4 gameplay... he really moves around like a bot. But, funnily enough, in terms of pure reaction speed he was actually faster than Catgirl by a frame or two. Though he was also spending a lot more time staring at a door/corner primed to shoot at someone who popped up.
He doesn't seem to know or understand the basics of m+k aim, let along the modern 'aim training' levels. The videos reference that there's a dedicated channel to his tool... so God help me, I might end up going further down this rabbit hole.
Not that I really care about any of this, but I do watch any of CoS's videos as well as any related videos that pop up in my YouTube feed. I just find them entertaining and funny. I will say though that like half of what that guy was talking about isn't even related. He talks about BF having tons of bullet drop (BF6 doesn't really have a ton but whatever). CoS's program doesn't do anything with bullets or hits or anything similar. It's just crosshair placement. That's it.
That bit was confusing to me as well. Though not so much as to what the CoS tool is doing... but more towards the actual alleged aimbot. The basic "point directly at the guy's head" aimbot would work just fine in BF6, certainly in the alleged cheating clips. You don't need a perfect aimbot. And if you wanted to deal with bullet drop and needing to lead targets you could just hardcode in some average values. This quick dev cycle for cheats thing also doesn't really apply when you have to assume they have access to BF Labs.
Is that dude cheating? Maybe but idk.
I don't know either. From the handcam footage I'd say no. But I haven't even gotten anyone to engage on whether the handcams were cheated as well. And then you can never disprove stuff like "well he toggles on a few times a game when he's going for his best clips". Could happen. But not really falsifiable, and thus not even a worthwhile accusation.
That's up to the devs to figure out. Also whether or not CoS is completely bullshit, at least he shines a light on potential cheaters.
False accusations suck. Accusing people of cheating isn't inherently a virtue. If you can actually
prove these things, then yes of course you're providing a service.
