Wow is this considered CHEATING?

Yes, without a doubt, cheating

1215

No, just being strategic

718

Forgive my ignorance, but I just came across this and don't know what to make of it just yet. I could see gamers using it in Destiny Crucible. What do you guys think? Would you buy the Hipshotdot? Apparently they sell is at Gamestop.

  • This is cheating but how don't see how this works in Destiny. The guns are pretty accurate and the bullets don't fire all over the place like in call of duty games

        Nothing new, one of the old tricks in COD was to use an eraseable marker and make a dot yourself to get your aim better. Don't see it as cheating just very noobish.

      • on a Major Nelson podcast, Stepto, the former director of xbox live policy and enforcement, said that cheating is defined as playing a game in any way other than the developer intended. By that definition what was shown in the video is certainly considered cheating. If the developer intended there to be a reticle or red dot there, they would have included it in the game.

        • I could only get the gist of it, considering. I got to say I wouldn't buy it. I like to get on by, by learning from my mistakes and the game's physics and improve from there. Aiming down your sights, as I've found during the Destiny Beta, was extremely helpful for me so I don't see it as a problem. Whenever I try to fire from the hip, it feels like I'm actually firing from the hip with the bullets spraying everywhere, instead of the unrealistic feel of a perfect aim despite jumping and sliding around a lot some games have. It may be just me, but I really appreciate the little things such as this. It makes the experience all the more sweeter.

                • Yes, this is cheating. This product cheats idiots out of their money. I, however, am not threatened in any way by it.

                  Cheating? No. Pretentious and skeezy tryhard-ish? Indisputably. It is tailor made for the sort of person who isn't ACTUALLY fast enough to keep up with people who play video games, or want a more HONEST challenge. Edit: Having seen the kotaku video someone linked here, it doesn't even seem to work. So. Watch out for people using this; if they end up on your team you might be at a disadvantage.

                • There is no need for this in destiny there is already a reticle. It's good for HC game modes on COD because there is no reticle.

                • It's an aim reticule that you stick on your screen? That's retarded. Does it come bundled with a pet rock? Or maybe an extra one for cars, so you know which way your car is facing?

                  In rainbow 6 Vegas it was used allot. I called it screen dot. However destiny has a hud with ridicule? so u dont need that im pretty sure its more popular for 3rd person shooters like the aforementioned. Edit not that thing but lile every one is saying a sticker on your screen.

                  • That... thing doesn't do anything? Games have evolved since CS 1.6, hipfire accuracy is all over the place. There is always (well, ok, most of the time) also some sort of crosshairs available, and if you can't see where the middle point is, then I guess go ahead and spend money on this. It's your wasted money...

                  • If that's what they need to keep up go for it its their money. It's not a wall hack its fine. Shooting from the hip always felt unnatural to me but I shoot real guns too.

                    That thing is a piece of shit, the best thing you could do is cut out clear small piece of that sticker you get when you get an oil change and make a black dot with a sharpie

                  • Nope its not cheating and why would you even care? You would NEVER know if someone was using this or not. Just like ppl using different "pro controllers", sure it helps them play a bit better but you would never know they are using it....its not like they're modding the game or anything.
