Is screen peeking really considered cheating if you all have the exact same advantage? Or was it really just the fat friend's justification for why him picking Oddjob was fair because he selected him first?
it's not cheating if everybody can cheat. in my experience you're too focused on your own pov and don't have time to look at the other players pov and if you do i'd be a distraction that puts you at a disadvantage.
Knowing the layout of the stage is not cheating. Goldeneye gives you a god damn minimap, and if you want to turn that off, you have to unlock a cheat to do it anyway. I don't know why this rule became so ubiquitous, but it's never made sense to me.
How are you supposed to open a door or peak a corner if everyone is screenlooking? It ruins the gameplay entirely making it unfun for both sides.
>>743297686you press the B button silly
>>743296675>itt: niggas pretending that you can not screenpeek on a 32" crtIt was always little timmy coping for being shit at the game while peeking the most.
how the fuck did I see anything
>>743296675Remind me of my friend telling me I shouldn't shoot him on his back when he's running away because it's not "honorable".
>>743298391for me it was my cousin, every play in the book. "my controllers' broken", "I picked the wrong chatacter", "you just got lucky", "you were looking at my screen!".To be fair, random luck is a valid excuse, but good players can manage around it. I love my fat cousin, even if he does have diabetes.
>>743298842My favorite was always playing GTA SA. "We switch off whenever we die". "Oh that was too quick", "well that's not fair", "you saw how bullshit that was right", "come on let me try one more time"All you had to do was follow the damn train, CJ
>>743299558It was rly nice when the retard we watched playing games was in the room with us and not on yt. F.
>>743299670maybe being retarded is a performance enhancer for games like GTA, maybe they'll go somewhere you never thought to look? maybe the real retard was in us all along?
>>743296675someone post the taped cardboard pic
>>743296675play as oddjob is a disadvantage
>>743301169I've heard this as well. apparently the auto aim doesn't change at all based on the opponents height, so it's been theorized that Jaws might actually be better to play as because you're not as likely to get a headshot on him without aimingbut then in nightfire oddjob has his hat as a weapon by default, so he is broken there
All I remember is being pissed off playing with certain people, because if they saw anyone looking at thier character they would take evasive maneuvers. You couldn't approach from the back or snipe, and he would choose the brightest color so that he could spot himself on your screen quicker. This guy singlehandedly killed split screen gaming for me.
>>743301513my friend's brother sat right next to the N64. to be fair he did this for every game he played, even sing player, but since he sat next to the console, he would just mash the reset button if he was about to lose to me or my friend.not like once or twice, but like 20 times. in 5 seconds. they used to have one of those pikachu themed N64s and I don't know for certain, but I think he destroyed it. In the xbox 360 era.
>pick jaws>faggot picks oddjob>faggot keeps running up to me while shooting me in the dick>have to use the retarded camera-controls to look down if I want to hit himSovlfull, but fucking annoying.
>>743302002I just refuse to play if someone's gonna be like that. My main was always siberian special forces because he looks like an alien. Otherwise i'd just play as sean bean and make fart noises.
>>743298645why are you backshotting your friend
>>743301361i mean, at high levels you don't use the auto aim to begin with because it only puts your aim where you don't want it (their body) instead of where you do want it (their head)playing as oddjob not only means that you have to tilt your looking up even more than a normal character in order to line up with a normal height character's head vertically, and not only is it even worse vs jaws, but it also means that normal height characters basically don't have to adjust their vertical aim at all/only a slight bit downwards in order to be aimed square at your headjaws IS an unfair advantage though, but only slightly
>>743302658Sorry, I thought the goal of that mode was to kill each other but it seems like you are only allowed if characters face each other
>>743302658>>743298645man I miss these stupid interactions as a kid. whenever we played lego, we'd draw cards on who got to be the hero for the day.
>>743296675>Everyone in class can see each other's answers during the test.>So, is it REALLY "cheating" if everyone can do it!?!?You're not the teacher.
>>743296675This thread reminded me of one of my favorite splitscreen party games, Screencheat. It's a pretty standard multiplayer FPS except player models are all invisible. The only way to shoot the other players is by looking at their screens. There's a bunch of mini games (my favorite is the one where each player has to hunt down and kill the three other players in a specific, randomized order. The first to complete their kill list wins), and the weapons are all fun to use. A+ game to have in your library, and it's regularly on sale for dirt cheap.
>>743296829>it's not cheating if everybody can cheatA cheaters mind truly is an enigma. The shit you fags come up with to cope with your immoral behaviour.
