Oh, I don't think they are cheating.  Maybe a little because you can really tweak the sound in a way only a sound engineer can.

Compare the guy with the $4,000 3D-HDTV vs. the $200 SDTV. Is there cheating there too?  No.

Same point with the $1,000 Bose system. (wish I had mine back, it is at my mother's house...)

Start replacing the controller with the single shot repeating button to increase your accuracy like the top guys on the leaderboard, then yes you are defeating the system and cheating.  Zipper has already called out these cheaters once before with the PE4.  Zipper is addressing these modded controllers in the next patch.


Thats funny. I accually got my highest  COD killstreak on a little 27" tube when I had to work out of town for a week. Couldn't see half the enemies from a distance lol.

Ok, great someone proves me wrong.  Funny.

Well, it was a generalization to make a point.  A 27" tuber was considered fairly large in the day.

lol, no don't get me wrong it was a fluke believe you me. I was just saying it was funny that My highest kill count was on a 27" with rca cables and I couldn't see most the enemies that were over 25 yards away

ya theres no skill involved....just cheating and being cheap (like skype) i quit gb a while ago....sad thing is...we didnt do that crap and still were in top 10 constantly...says a lot for the players of the last 3-4 years.

oh how i wish i wasnt a newb and had this headset then tho....i love this thing!!! i want to play every game i own now just to hear it haha, mine is better than the ones i have got to use before it seems.

suck this thread was a dud....i was actually interested in what all people were gonna say

Dude, come on, i can't stand people that use the word CHEATING unless somebody is glitching or using code 9 or something like that, yes skype is sort of cheap but to say theres NO SKILL in GB lol, does using skype help them when they drop you in a gun fight ? GB is where the top notch competition is, point blank period.

I was wrong CS:GO SUCKS

well in one of my last wars we were on kasbah and they jumped up the back wall of the map on the seal side to try to draw it out....theres some stuff that makes you wonder aside from that, also picked up many guns with all attachments.

ill paint it out for you, my last GB war i ever played and will ever play we played a top 10 clan i cant remember the rank i think like 8 or something but anyways we crush them, they refuse to report and got an admin "friend" and ended up getting a W and we got the L, i dont know the details of it nor do i care the fact of the matter was we won and didnt nothing shady or wrong including skype......that was the last GB experience i will ever have.

once you get to higher levels of gb, as i figure you are, players do ahve friends and stuff that are refs.

Re: Do you think using a headset is cheating?

While a pair of good headsets might be cool, there's nothing like a great fat surround system.

Hearing how the paintings and windows in your house shaking from a grenade, bullets ricochet of the walls to hearing footsteps or proxy chat behind/above/underneath you is pretty much as close as it gets.

I gotta get me a pair of headsets though, the missus is complaining.

Re: Do you think using a headset is cheating?

On a side note, I played a game a few days ago and the Woman was next to me. I usually play only at night as she complains otherwise.

This time I was playing during the day though, so I decided to use the TV sounds, (like I had been doing with every game before I bought the headset) and I was so DISGUSTED from the sound quality, that I plugged in my turtles the second I heard the first grenade go off.

Invest the 80-100 bucks is my advice. You shouldn't regret it!

Re: Do you think using a headset is cheating?

I agree with what most people here said.  Headsets arent cheating any more than having a big hd tv.

Re: Do you think using a headset is cheating?

I have a headsetand love it. I wouldn't call it cheatingbut you get a HUGE advantage.  Saved my ass many times.  Not really as effective in s4 compared to other gamed due to the horrible overall sound.  I was surprised too at the difference it made in cod too when I decided to hook them up to my Xbox.  You gotta try it in battlefield ice. Go to the settings too and there's a few different audio options for battlefield.  Since I had my headset I played on "war tapes"
