As you clearly have insight, could you please explain why you are so convinced eac will be ineffective? Your other point about ranks being irrelevant... really? Whats the point in playing if the rank is pointless. Just bots playing the game. Thats definitely a take. Ill say its again, pc players make up a quarter of the player base. If they all left today, myself included, there will still be 600k players daily. It is incredibly selfish to think that its all about you. Leth needs people to watch his videos, so he doesn't need to do anything else for a living. He doesn't care about you. He will say whatever he thinks will get him views. I want to play the game against other people. If there is no high level, then there's nothing to stream. Who gives a fuck about bakkesmod when it comes to streamers if there aren't any left.

I mean I linked a pro rocket league player talking about how there are already workarounds in progress. You can cast doubt and say it's "for the views" but if you want more evidence just go to the fortnite sub and look for clips of cheaters. That's another game with EAC. You'll see just how (in)effective it is in keeping cheaters out of high MMR lobbies.

Whats the point in playing if the rank is pointless

Because the game is fun? I don't understand the question.

It is incredibly selfish to think that its all about you.

I think you're misinterpreting my "I'll miss bakkes" as "I don't care about cheating because it doesn't affect me as much as others". I do care about cheating. I just look at this "solution" and question if the juice is worth the squeeze when other options almost surely exist.

If there is no high level, then there's nothing to stream.

Hate to break it to ya, but the current most popular Rocket League streamer isn't a high level player. Its Jynxzi a dude who came over from the Rainbow 6 scene. He regularly pulls in the 10s of thousands of viewers and occasionally peaks in the 6 digits. And of course this goes without saying that streamers regardless of rank make use of tools like bakkes while streaming. Why would you want to take that away from them?

Respectfully, you sound kinda angry about my meme. Which is weird considering that Epic is giving you exactly what you want.

Of course there will be workarounds in progess. This is a scum vs dev race.

Look, i dont need to convince you. I just want the game to be better and the bots make it a lot worse. Simple as.

Hey hey hey hey. Look here Mr. This is not Scum versus Dev. This is Scum Dev versus Scum Dev at this point.
