The Monitor For Cheaters

If a multiplayer game server is sending you any information about what's under fog of war, then they're doing it wrong.

Its funny seeing people say 27 inches is the sweetspot. Meanwhile I play all my PC games on a 55 inch LG C1 lol

In the year 2030 if TVs don't come with melanoma and cataract risk warnings you won't want it 😩

As much as I hate advocating for this I guess we'll need some new HDCP style protocol for games that can actually verify your monitor hardware.

Maybe a legal solution to ban these monitors and similar hardware?

nice. Someone Should Sponsor me and send me one of these and a computer to run it.

Does that mean that VMs will be allowed again?

Would really help if you wouldn't get banned just for using a VM as your PC. Not everyone is using VMs for cheats.

And if screens are this good, then it really doesn't matter what happens on the machine itself.

Gaming headphones... Grandma edition

So gaming on a 120 inch projector is too big for gaming ?

cheaters didn't need a monitor to be built in order to cheat.
cheaters cheat.
it's that simple.

If that monitor got support for World of Warcraft you would effectively get those addons back that blizz intentionally broke back during wrath of the lich king... The ones that would draw on screen where to stand for certain parts of boss encounters.

If you aren't preparing for the end of the internet, you're behind. AI is making real vs fake interactions impossible to distinguish.

Please do a full in depth video on that monitor with regular people and also pros like shroud. Have them get aim labs scores and stuff so we can have metrics to actually compare how good this monitor is.

I believe cheating has been on the rise due to it becoming a lot more profitable for cheat developers than before. There's also a lot more incentive for people to cheat today than it was in the past and so many people seem to just have given up that the concentration of cheaters is a lot more noticable. Anti-cheat is super expensive to run and not a priority when a game is first created as it is a huge risk to profits. If the game does well, its fine but if it doesn't do as well, the anti-cheat is a huge sinkhole for the devs cashflow.

I wish I could legally cheat

oh, that monitor that shows where your getting tagged with rgb

The only game I could see that could be a subscription based model are games that wipe.. If you lose everything then I wouldn't mind, paying for one wipe of tarkov, taking a break, then buying back in later down the line.. That would be dope. Meanwhile here I am with my $150 EOD tarkov acc that I haven't played on in 3 years xD (Played like 1.5 wipes)

out of all the ideas to counter the Cheater Monitor & Linus had to think the most dystopian one

I'll believe this when a pro gamer says the same. Until then, subjective nonsense.

27 inches as a small monitor >.>

I can't help but think that 99% of gamers just don't give a damn about all this stuff. The majority according to steam are still using upper-mid-tier graphics cards from 4 generations ago.

I disagree about cheating having no barrier of entry. You first have to be an idiot that has no morals and enjoys ruining a game and other people's enjoyment of it. And be willing to compromise your PC completely.

Brightness war!?
Am I the only one who has my tv one lowest brightness setting and using Windows night light (redshift the screen)? Give me a nice dim image and if it's bright in the room I turn brightness up to like 15%.

How is this cheating? Isnt it just using an intended TV feature which comes with the product you bought?

Gets in lobby with kids.... Listen to how good I may have been

It's wild how many people are getting upset at the idea of developers trying to protect their online games. Like, Linus's idea is completely unrealistic and will never happen. But what will happen is companies will stop making competitive modes for the public the way they're available now once AI cheats start to really take off. The only way you'll be able to play them are at public events on PCs/consoles/hardware that you don't own. Which would be pretty neat since it'd bring lan cafes back from the dead in North America.

That's an entirely realistic future. And everyone who abuses AI cheats or hardware/software cheats will probably lose their minds when the world they created comes to pass. Kind of like how certain pirates of games will try to sink companies on Patreon because the developer of a free game they're playing changes something they didn't want to be changed.

If theres anything I learned from the gaming community is their utterly unapologetic levels of entitlement. They think they can do anything and deserve everything. At all times, with zero repercussions.

Games cost money to make. Cheats stop people from playing said games, which stops their cashflow, which causes game to cease to exist. Pretty simple concept for the mentally inept out there.

Think of this in any rts...

Getting hands on with the 1 10 inch... 😆

When it comes to the ambient light sensors you mentioned. Wouldn't you want the extremely bright image to hit you when your eyes aren't adjusted because that's how bright things actually hit your eyes? That would make it more realistic. We just need all scenes and parts of the image in rendering, cameras, post production, and displays (the entire process) to be calibrated to the actual brightness that they are in the real world. So, an interior scene would be just like you see in your house or at the bank. But then, when you go outside you are hit with sunlight when the ground is covered in snow and have to wait for your eyes to adjust. No dynamic brightness. Per-pixel lighting. Per-color phosphor (or whatever tech is being used) lighting.

For casual gaming, there's not much that should be done about cheaters.. BUT when it comes to Competitive Pro gaming, especially where money is on the line, that NEEDS to be done on certified fair hardware.

bezels that are too thin are terrible: a TV needs a frame around it to help separate the content from whatever is behind the TV.

I would love to see a new CRT company bring out a nice widescreen high refresh 4k CRT. These flat screens are sooo dead.

Multiplayer fps shooters certainly are infested with cheaters and I can see a time where I stop playing because of it, Its already a tough time with the legit god teir players becoming half the player base and develpers trying to make their games appealing to new players by putting easy mode weapons in their game encouraging them to sit motionless waiting for someone to run past their ads'd gun for as long as it takes to finally get a kill.

Nvidea solution to the motion clarity, might be IA clarity reconstruction, available only on 50 series card with dlss 4.0

That AI monitor actually sounds like it could have a lot of potential in facilitating vision accessibility in gaming.

If this monitor works in the way it does, its entirely possible that games will just start banning anyone who is using specific monitors that do these things, and I'm all for it. Fuck it. Ban them.

What monitor are they talking about at the start? I tried looking up Samsung 360hz OLED gaming monitor, but I was getting a lot of different results.

That bright IRL reflection, I doubt you can see much detail in the shadows.

Ghosting on LED monitors is the only reason why I miss my 77 lb 20" CRT monitor.

When I hear strobing I think seizures and headaches

Isn't the ususall response to people selling tools for "cheating" that it actually helps everyone since then developers have to make better/safer products?
at least how it works with internet security and physicall locks.

If there is a game coming where u have to put a webcam showing your monitor so AI will see when u are cheating i will gladly buy and play that game, im all for fair gameplay and against cheats since that ruins the experience.

Linus, I just played Evil West yesterday on my S95B and the lights where so bright my eyes hurt, tv's do not need to get brighter.

When I got my lg c2 first thing I watched was lotr and the hobbit. Incredible in hdr

they need to extend public nusance laws to hackers on public lobies

I have never been into PVP or team vs team games. I can't get my brain or coordination to work fast enough for it not to be a massive learning challenge.

I'd much rather join a sim racing league and spend time learning a car and track combo.

MEG 321URX QD-OLED & SkySight
confusing. there seems to be the terminology SkySight and ?AI? SkyLight

While something like this probably wouldn’t be detectable, future AI “enhancements” definitely could. If the AI is using sound to show someone behind a wall so you can wall bang them and you do so consistently, that is something that could be tracked. Companies are also working on server side AI anticheat to detect when various cheats are active through player behavior making stuff like this potentially detectable in the future.
