Shroud can only laugh as \u201cepic\u201d Escape from Tarkov hacker \u2018outplays\u2019 him Battlestate Games \/ Mixer: shroudMixer streamer Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek could only laugh as he was gunned down by an Escape from Tarkov player blatantly using an aimbotting program to get the upper hand in Battlestate\u2019s competitive hardcore FPS. Escape from Tarkov took the gaming world by storm last month as streamers like Summit1g and Dr Disrespect tried their hand at the hardcore shooter. The player base tripled as a result of the attention, and that boost seems to have brought an influx of hackers who want to win at any cost. Shroud \u2014 who is certainly no stranger to accuracy after earning himself the title \u2018the human aimbot\u2019 during his time as a CSGO pro \u2014 stumbled across one such hacker during his stream on February 3, and all he could do was laugh. Irony as shroud falls victim an aimbot The Mixer star had loaded into TerraGroup Labs, a high-level Tarkov map which has a cost to enter, and boasts some of the best loot in the game, when he stumbled across the \u201ccrazy\u201d cheater in one of the labs\u2019 dark hallways. Grzesiek had been enjoying some decent success while playing as his main character, with a handful of kills and some well-earned loot tucked into his backpack, when he heard someone running straight at him from around the corner. Although shroud\u2019s reflexes are quick, even two years after his retirement from pro play, there was nothing he could do as the offending player barrelled around the corner at full pelt, and landed a single headshot to kill the Mixer star. \u201cOkay, that guy is cheating\u2026 that guy is aimbotting,\u201d shroud said immediately after the snap shot. \u201cI was wondering why he was just f**king running at me like that, but that makes sense. That scared the f**k out of me, a goddamn jump scare.\u201d High-tier loot brings out the Tarkov cheaters With how quick and sudden the death was, shroud could only react with laughter as he pieced together the puzzle. Once he stopped chuckling, he admitted cheating was rampant on that map: \u201cWelcome to Labs, where cheaters cheat.\u201d Shroud seemed to have accepted his fate and begun preparing for another PMC run into Tarkov, when he realized that he knew the offender\u2019s name, and could probably use that to make sure he couldn\u2019t ruin anyone else\u2019s runs. \u201cYou know, I could probably get that guy banned actually, I just sent a message over to the Battlestate PR guy,\u201d shroud revealed. \u201cThe pros of being a streamer is that guy is probably being banned. The cons are he threw me back in the lobby.\u201d All shroud can do is laugh about the kill Even after reporting the offender, and preparing for another run, shroud couldn\u2019t seem to get the aimbotter out of his head, and kept laughing about how blatantly he had run towards him, and not even hidden the cheating program. \u201cThe second I peeked this, I\u2019m like \u2018okay, this guy is full sprinting at me,\u2019 and then boop! I\u2019ve never had that happen before, that\u2019s crazy,\u201d shroud laughed. \u201cThat\u2019s f**king nuts. Look at this guy, I love it. That is epic stuff right there. That\u2019s good, that\u2019s a good laugh,\u201d he added, before joking about sharing the hack. \u201cShame he didn\u2019t share it with me, we could have taken on the server together!\u201d For mobile readers, the related segment begins at 6:49 in the video below. Not even hackers can stop shroud playing Tarkov While some people might be disillusioned with a game after coming up against someone with such an obvious cheating program installed, shroud has been playing Escape from Tarkov nearly non-stop since he discovered it last year. After the initial surge, many streamers put the hardcore shooter back on the shelf \u2013 just like the Mixer star predicted back on January 5 \u2013 but Grzesiek has basically become the poster boy for the title, playing it every time he streams. So, of course, he loaded back into another raid, though this time he was a little more careful storming through Labs in search of the best loot in the game, \u201cjust in case [he got] cheated on again\u201d by someone blatantly hacking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
