CSGO player gets revenge on cheaters by creating hilarious fake cheats Valve \/ YouTube: ScriptKidSick of cheaters in Counter-Strike? How about beat them at their own game? That\u2019s what YouTuber \u2018ScriptKid\u2019 did, creating a new \u201ccheating\u201d software for CS:GO that sabotaged would-be hackers. Getting matched against a cheater in CS:GO \u2014 or any game \u2014 is infuriating. It saps the fun out of the game, getting headshot from across the map by a guy spinning around with a Negev. While Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) does its best to snuff out the hackers, it\u2019s not perfect. However, there is a solution outside of that. Software engineer and CS:GO fan \u2018ScriptKid\u2019 took it upon himself to code a cheat client for the game. However, instead of giving everyone who downloaded it cheats, it only intended to sabotage their gameplay. He created a \u201cbait software\u201d that looked like a cheat, even promising it was \u201c100% undetected by VAC\u201d while being totally free. Too good to be true, right? Despite that, 1,021 people downloaded the software in the space of just two weeks. Instead of giving players the promise of an incredible aimbot, or walls beyond what the server could render, ScriptKid\u2019s client made cheaters look like fools. He installed multiple \u201cpunishments\u201d for cheaters to get mocked by. These punishments included shooting teammates, screwing up grenade throws, and even stopping defuses just before they finished. They would apply randomly, so it was hard to know when they would sabotage cheaters next. The full list of punishments can be found here: Burning Man: throw grenades straight down and unbind movement keys for a few seconds. – No Plant or Defuse: cancel plant or defuse at the last second, and play a fake sound to confuse them. – Big Spender: waste the cheater\u2019s money by buying bad weapons, like shotguns. – NoSpray4U: 50% chance to drop weapons when spraying. – Invert Mouse ADS: invert mouse while aiming down scope. – Violence Speed Momentum: ups sensitivity to 100 for a few seconds. – Butter Fingers: drops weapon every time they try to shoot. – Do You Even Aim Bro: \u201cbasically the opposite of an aimbot.\u201d – Blood Brothers: fires the cheater\u2019s weapon when hovering over an ally. – This isn\u2019t the first set of cheaters ScriptKid has sprung a trap on. He\u2019s done this in the past with PUBG hackers, tricking them into installing his \u201cbait software\u201d that made them jump out of moving vehicles, shoot teammates while reviving them, and dropping grenades on them. Given ScriptKid\u2019s \u201ccheats\u201d would probably get picked up by VAC eventually for altering the game\u2019s files, it would be a double whammy for the thousand-odd players who fell for the bait. However, if it means less cheaters in CS:GO, then so be it. If you\u2019re going to cheat, at least do it right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
