Cheating in video games, especially multiplayer games, has been seen as taboo since the medium’s existence. It’s never fun to lose a match because the enemy had a completely unfair advantage. It’s even worse in competitive settings, where players are competing for prizes and notoriety. Recently, a\u00a0massive cheating scandal was uncovered in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0and the punishment is pretty intense.<\/p>\n

The esports scene for CS:GO<\/em> is storied. Counter-Strike<\/em> has grown and changed<\/a> since it first started in 1999, but unfortunately, the reality of cheating within the\u00a0series hasn’t ever gone away. The most recent cheating case has to do with three coaches who manipulated a spectator bug.<\/p>\n

The coaches for teams MIBR, Heroic, and Hard Legion were all caught cheating. The bug allowed the coaches to control the camera of the spectating mode and basically see an overview of the live map. The coaches could then see into the enemies’ spawn, spot where enemies were running, and then advise their team of where\u00a0the bad guys were. The coaches were banned for 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months respectively for cheating in CS:GO<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n
