SPT Aimbot is the new High Scorer

[Polytricktian]

Here is a link to the Reddit Post
https://www.reddit.com/r/Vive/comments/4ml6x5/space_pirate_trainer_video_of_a_new_high_score/

Notice how the Gun goes up when the bots appear.
Notice how the gun drops off the screen when all bots are dead.
Notice how the head movement is in sync with the gun.
Notice that the "player" never moves.
Notice that the shield moves to the incomming shots even if it is on the right side.
Notice that the "player" never looks are anywhere else.
Notice that the gun hops from one bot to the other without the "player" moving their head.

While I know that I am nowhere even close to the top score... I just hate cheaters!

thanks!

We should also investigate LeBron, I think he's cheating too. You expect me to believe he can just be better than everyone else without some kind of hack? Ridiculous.

yeegads the Aimbot has the power of updating Steam forum threads too! Run for the hills :D

You know, to be fair, his aim is pretty godlike, but you can definitely still see the human element in the way he aims (and little "emotional" movements at certain points).

Of course the gun comes up when bots appear.

He probably stops holding the gun up when there are no bots as a way to rest (I do the exact same thing).

Keeping a consistent head-to-hand movement is key to being accurate.

He definitely moves.

You can tell that he crosses his arm at some points to block shots to the right. Slightly awkward, but what he did was entirely possible. It's required at higher waves to be able to do this.

Not sure what you mean by "Notice that the "player" never looks are anywhere else." Do you mean that he is always looking at bots? This is fairly easy if you pay attention to audio and the radar.

You can move your eyes without moving your head. If the bots are close, you probably don't move your head for each bot either (depending on your aiming method).


Everyone has seen the video, and even the devs are cheering him on. I'm sorry, but you've got less than 2 hours in the game. Put some time in, and you'll see that he's just doing what everyone else is doing... But better.

[Polytricktian]

LIke I said. I enjoy the game and I will never get anywhere near the Top 10. I am just pointing out a cheater who is bragging about and laughing at the fact that he is fooling everyone.
I actually applaude the effort that was put into the hack, but you guys are applauding him for the wrong reason.

[Lemming]

My favorite part is you think moving your hand down when the robots are dead and back up is concrete evidence of hacking, instead of the far more likely and obvious case that holding your arm out is tiring and it's a good idea to rest it when you can.

You should apply to be a drug screener for sports, it'd be a lot faster and more efficient for you to decide who's cheating without needing proof or evidence.

i guess you missed the point. It is not that the hands go down. It's a that it's goes down in a programmed manner and that it appears that the program will only raise the gun when there is a bot on the screen. Humans do not respond in a programmed manner. Everything that is on that video is programmed and there is NO human element in it at all.

[Lemming]

You don't have any evidence of that, at all. You're just making assumptions that that's what an aimbot would look like. There's nothing out of the ordinary in that video for a good player.

[Daddy Shark]

Damn that dude crushed it. I don't see any aimbots there.

You talk about this as if you know it's fact. Where's your proof? The video looks pretty legit to me.

[Comburo]

Don't see any evidence of botting myself. I too lower my arms when all bots are dead and get them back up when the bots appear. You can hear on what side a robot is about to fire, so you could pretty much hold your shield there, they aim at your head. He definitly moves around.

[saluk]

Looks totes legit to me, and well done. He actually makes it look easy, I'm going to try again with shield/pistol and see if I can beat my PB.

[Jan]

Watched the video, seems 100% legit. The guy has *very* good aim and reflexes, there is definetely no cheating **at all** going on here. But I can see that to someone who only has decent or sub-bar shooting skills (like myself) it *might* seem like cheating, but it really isn't.

[The Law]

Aight, I'm calling it. Troll alert. When literally everyone else can point out that everything about the video to show it as legit, and even the devs support the guy, there's just no way you can keep screaming "HAX!"... Especially when you have less than 2 hours in the game. #StopFeedingTheTroll

The movement on the gun seems to be in same position a lot. No wiggle or little recoil what it seems like.

Around 10:50-10:58 he snaps from a target very fast and keep it in sight to only switch target very shortly to another one and still is on target while this target fly by fast too. Very bot like behavior. It just doesn't look normal.
