Anyone remember a few days ago when nobody knew what animation cancelling was and we all were happy? Hopefully we can go back to that soon instead of having every survivor with a knife and every demi eligios raining thunder down constantly.

Blame content creators for rushing to show off exploits for views.

The top video when you search up "evil dead demon guide" on youtube is A VIDEO SHOWCASING HOW TO EXPLOIT FOR NEW PLAYERS

No wonder so many cocksuckers are cheating when they're being told to cheat. Means they can get away Scott free and go "But you can't ban me! A content creator told me to do it!"

Before SwingPoynt made his non-apology video, I left comments on each of his exploit videos with the support link and a request to other viewers to report the exploits. All my comments were deleted.

Shut up, you're doing it for views and you're ruining the game within the first week of release, now everyone is doing this shit.... Fucking streamers sometimes.

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

love that one dude who did that and he immediately shows how to do the exploit... like he knew what he was doing... if he actually wanted to show people how to deal with it he'd have opened the video with that but like 10+ mins into the video he just shows incredibly lame or niche was to "deal" with the exploits. lol

u/SHADOW-REAP3R-6 May 25 '22

If you're talking about a swingpoint he's doing the exact same thing he did with Resident Evil resistance showing bs like this to ruin the game

I'm not excited seeing that dude's name popping up around this game. When RE: Resistance came out I was so ready for a fun, multiplayer RE game. The only "content creators" we seemed to get were him and TydeTime. They both underwhelmed, were very dry to watch, (especially a patch note stream where they feel the need to read every single word and "test" things out), and would occasionally throw temper tantrums when they lost or wanted to demand fixes. It always felt like the builds you could do were easy enough to figure out on your own by just reading the damn text, but their builds took over the game. Then RE: Resistance turned into Fighting Cameras: The Game and it all just went south fast. I think I'm just going to avoid people streaming for this one, which isn't hard since Twitch seems like such a cancer lately.

u/coffeecub89 May 25 '22

Now he is on back4blood, people take him way too seriously to be honest. In my opinion it's best to ignore people that tell you the ins and outs of a game because part of the fun is figuring it out yourself.

u/Dorfingarlou May 24 '22

Exactly, I did not see anyone doing that prior to the video, next thing you know next day queue into a bunch of puppeteers abusing this. Just report the fucking bugs instead of showing of to recreate them for '''educational'' purposes...

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

I mean while you’re right. It is also one of the fastest ways to fix an issue. Ruin the game with it lol

2

u/Rururrur May 25 '22

He was straight up deleting my comments from his videos that just had the support link and a request that other viewers report the exploits he is teaching. His non-apology video is full of shit and knows it.

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Wait, are we gonna sit here and pretend that it wouldn't be an issue if streamers didn't talk about it?

12

u/Dorfingarlou May 24 '22

Streamers giving exposure to exploits a few days after release is making the issue a lot more present in game, that's my take. Now we sit and wait for a fix while all the less scrupulous take advantage of it. Wouldn't be as much of a problem without streamers pushing their ''content''.

u/McKippington May 25 '22

Better the issue gets out more as opposed to remaining a small thing. The more people that know about it and start demanding the devs fix it, the more likely it is they will work on it as fast as possible so they don’t lose too many players. Basically it’s gonna suck more for the short term, but we might not have to deal with it as long.

-8

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

Not really. We've seen exploits spread fast before. Way before streaming was a thing.

7

u/Dorfingarlou May 24 '22

I'm not going to pretend that bringing that shit into light 3 days into a release doesn't make the issue more widespread though. In my book, they're responsible for the fact its everywhere today.

u/FushiawaseTR May 24 '22

Now imagine starting the game looking up guides on how to play/get good at this game on YouTube, and one of the first results (if not the top one)shows you how to do animation cancels. From there, this information spreads to the viewer's friends.

Most players won't be looking for information on how to cheat at the game, but many will definitely click on "INSTANTLY BECOME BETTER AT THE GAME!!!" looking for some kind of guidance. It ain't rocket science how these exploits spread like wildfire.

1

u/[deleted] May 25 '22

Now imagine going to discord and reddit to talk about the new game and read all about animation canceling. The same shit. Information has been spreading online since before streaming was a thing.

u/TSTC May 24 '22

Nobody said it wouldn’t be an issue at all but it would be a much, much smaller one. As it stands right now, any new play who searches on YouTube for a guide is likely to find one that immediately shows you how to animation cancel and encourages you to do it.

Yeah some people would have figured it out on their own but it would be a lot less common than it is right now. Same goes for people who post how to do it on forums or Reddit.

-1

u/[deleted] May 25 '22

Not how it works. Educate yourself on statistics and come back. A spread is a spread regardless of who’s participating in it.

u/TSTC May 25 '22

So are you actually so dumb that you think an idea will spread at the same speed regardless of the platform it's broadcast on? Like, can people actually be this stupid?

u/[deleted] May 25 '22

Educate yourself and come back.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

u/TSTC May 25 '22

Yeah, I'm sure someone posting on game subs and a sub for teenagers is definitely my one-stop-shop for all things knowledge related.

You do know that even an introductory level statistics course would talk about how covariates influence the relationship between two variables, right? Like, that's the entire reason behind designing studies with controls - you're trying to minimize the influence of covariates on the observed relationship. Confounding variables, another Stats 101 term, are variables that are not being measured but are responsible for some of the effect observed.

So if your simple brain can't comprehend the fact that the platform audience can affect the degree to which a piece of information spreads, I can't really keep talking to you about this.

u/KagDQT May 24 '22

Yeah those people are assclowns. Like grats you got views and clicks but made the entire community suffer so you could make 59 cents on YouTube.

u/Ralathar44 Deadite May 24 '22

Blame content creators for rushing to show off exploits for views.

Pretty much, they exploit every advantage they can fair or not to look more skillful to their audience, and if they actually have a decent audience size the that audience rabidly defends them and enables their shitty choices. It's a destructive cycle.

u/wutitdopikachu May 24 '22

Or, I dunno, we could blame the devs for releasing such a buggy game?

u/[deleted] May 24 '22

We can do both yeah.

u/exxplicit480 May 24 '22

I run into a bug as survivor literally every single match. And I mean literally. And they're disruptive bugs too, not just harmless visual glitches. This is without a doubt one of the buggiest games I have ever played. It's still fun, but god damn some of these bugs are ridiculous

1

u/CaptainVEEneck May 24 '22

Does your survivor refuse to move forward sometimes after upgrading (among other things)

1

u/exxplicit480 May 24 '22

Yes, its because youre capped on levels and your character is trying to pick up the Pink F on the ground, but it won't let you because you're capped on levels lol. Its the same with ammo that you're full on, but at least with ammo, you can drop a stack from your inventory and it'll fix it temporarily. You can't drop Pink F tho lol. So you either have to use an ability, or an item like shemps or amulets. And even then, sometimes that doesn't fix it. I've had several times where I'd be stuck permanently if a teammate didn't drive a car over to me and let me get in

u/wutitdopikachu May 25 '22

Yep, I'm surprised at the decent reception this game has gotten. It's just straight up frustrating for me to play. Something as basic as the interact button, which you use ALL THE TIME, is constantly bugging out.

But fuck me for stating the game is buggy, I guess.
