      There's amother comment thread just like this, they came up with the conecpt of Pyro Hockey. Spawn a stationary bomb carrying robot and see who can airblast it to the site with the least shots. Or have 2 teams, one tried to get the bomb in, the other defends.

    I actually had a friend of mine who just recent got into Mvm that didn’t understand what tacobot or pizzabot were and basil or someone akin to him continuously air-blasted the bomb carrier out of bounds on the last wave and made them have to restart the wave countless times. It made my friend stop playing Mvm and TF2 as a whole only after his 5th tour because he just didn’t like the toxicity of the community and felt it was unwelcoming to new players.

    Y'know, seeing Basil's griefing, it'd be kind of interesting to make "Pyro Golf" an unofficial new game mode: Spawn a stationary bomb-carrying bot near the bot's spawn, then try to airblast it to the hatch in the fewest puffs, perhaps with a custom plugin for different "clubs", i.e. airblast strengths. Hell, it might be good enough for custom golf maps!

    I had completed 400 tours, and pyro was my 2nd most played class in mvm long before the gas pass came out. Long before tacobot was a thing, and after not playing for years I decided to come back and have some fun. I saw pyro had this new weapon, and I was having a blast using it. I had only completed a few tours before running into my first Tacobot, who saw me using pyro. He forced everyone in the pub to ragequit on the last wave, using an exploit to avoid being kicked. After that encounter I was blacklisted and harassed daily by tacobot members, they went after me extra hard because of my high tour count, if any member saw me they would ruin the game I was in. I was just trying to have some fun, first time playing tf2 in years, and now I don't play tf2 anymore...

    Huge respects to you, for diving this deep into this deadly topic and spotlighting with valid reasonings. Great work!
    Anyway, still, the mindset of the people who cheat in MVM is foreign to me. Regarding the gameplay of MVM as a chore, and decides to turn on a cheat to bypass the 'chores'?
    MVM is like a mixture of an amusement park and a lottery. Some people are here for the gameplay, and some are here for the lottery. Some are for both. All of their mindsets are acceptable. It's their free will anyways. But if you end up going out of the way, taking an illegal path meantime harassing others, JUST to pull the lever of the lottery machine over and over... Then that's not something we can call an 'acceptable mindset'. That's nothing but a gambling addiction. And what do addicts needs? More gambles?
    No, a medication.

      Playing devil's advocate pretty hard here, but if "some are here for the lottery" is a valid reason to play mvm, how is minimizing the time to do said thing contradictorily not okay? Isn't that policing the "right and wrong" way to have fun? Sure as the video establishes, there's an effect on the fun of those that come for the gameplay by cheating, but the very same could be said by just being good with sniper naturally, or using kritz'd beggars/brass beast/gas etc and effectively soloing waves anyways. Are you still "negatively impactingthe gameplay" of others doing that?
      And moreso, theres definitely an argument to be made about that last few sentences, smells of "protecting you from yourself" type mindsets. Sure I'd agree there's definitely people that need protection from their own tendencies, but its a slippery slope into moral arbiter behavior and (more broadly outside the scope of tf2) authoritarianism and shouldn't just be taken at face value.
      setting aside that devil's advocate rant though, yeah I'd probably kick a cheater in mvm.

    You know, for that group trying to keep tf2 a pure game, they aren’t exactly pure themselves.
    A bit obvious when one of the rules they live by is to kick newbies from their matches.
    What’s the point of new players trying out the gamemode if you’re just going to be a ass to them. Plus, the game doesn’t keep a record for matches lost, and losing a match doesn’t affect item drops, so what’s the point of doing it? Because newbies might ruin the match and make you play longer? Given their lifestyle, i would assume they’d have a lot of time on their hands.

      I can understand why they kick newbies
      If you're gonna be doing something repetitively it's easier to do if at the end of each attempt you get a reward
      You don't get a reward for restarting 50 times because one player isn't doing enough to help the team
      It just becomes boring and frustrating at that point
      And them having lots of time doesn't mean they want to be wasting it over and over again on a single round cause a noob can't play well

    My main issue would be going into solo que and finding that someone cheats, effectively robbing you of the fun by destroying the difficulty in clearly unintended ways.

    He would join any open game on l4d, or even private servers (because the server browser still lists them) and then just stall the game. Either by Team killing every player and then sitting in the saferoom to never restart the game. Or by performing glitches to just completely brick the game. He also just hated women, like a lot. He'd go on a rant about women in gaming any time he found someone who was either female, or just had a female in their pfp. It was amazing to behold because my friend and I found some of his dating profiles, I forgot where they are now. But he's like some fat dude who lives in his parent's basement. So we'd just read off his dating profiles and he'd get mad and leave.

    I really enjoyed this video, it's a pretty interesting topic I'd never really considered a lot about. Hearing about this monkey war between tacobot and pizzabot was really funny too.
    My philosophy on cheaters in MvM does still stick to the mindset that it ruins the fun. For me, I like Mann Up because of that inherent combination of gambling and just normal gameplay. I don't do it enough for it to have a big impact on my wallet, so I like adding that element of gambling to a gamemode that is, also, inherently fun. So when there's a cheater on the team who's cleaning house and leaving me with nothing to really do, with no real strategy or comradery, I am inclined to kick them and leave room for real players. Even then, though, I make sure to talk to the rest of the people in the lobby to see what THEY wanna do, and then we go from there. So, if I were to hypothetically queue into a server with 4 bots, I'd probably just requeue, no harm no foul, and if the majority of players wants to keep a lone cheater we have, I'll either just shrug my shoulders and stick around, or requeue, depending on how I feel that day.
    You can also argue that this same mindset could be applied to gas passer and kritz demos and whatnot, though I think the inherent difference of them using tools directly in the game is something that affects my decision making. It's a part of the game's design and thus can be called strategy, so even if this also bores me, I'd feel much less morally correct in kicking them. Not to mention I've seen cheaters carry even better than folk using those strats so, y'know
    I think it's an interesting topic to think about more than people do normally, but ultimately my opinion is the same as before, if not strengthened by some of your arguments towards the end of the video. Great scripting though, I really enjoy watching this channel!

    Personally I play MVM for the experience of cooperative gameplay, it brings me enjoyment to help other people in game and real life (which is why I main Medic). having an "auto win" with cheaters is not something I enjoy to be with as it lessens the cooperation being experienced. I tend to server switch if the pyro is overusing Mouse 2 or when I encounter a cheater (has not happened yet). I'm not one to play "this side, that side" and prefer to avoid the drama altogether, but after what was shown in this informative video...I still take no sides and continue my playstyle, but I got some nice info and insight which is never bad in my opinion

    I will say right now I said no, but my reasoning is, I want to play MVM to enjoy a game that encourages teamwork, with the loot also being part of a bonus of it, it's like a reward for working together and getting along when you complete a mission or tour.
    My other reasoning, is that I feel that with the bots, I agree that it is boring, but it also takes away from someone else being able to fit that slot. For example, if a cheater joins, I'm going to kick them, since that cheater and probably bots or set of cheaters, take those slots away from legitimate players or even new players.
    Thing about me is that I like teaching new players the mechanics of tours like Two Cities, and for a cheater/bot to take that slot away from a potentially new player, I dislike the idea of that happening.

    You briefly showed the Smash tournament that Nintendo shut down while complaining about ToS stuff.
    That wasn't simply a case of ToS stuff. The tournament in question was an online-only tournament for Melee and Ultimate. They had no specific issues with the Ultimate side, but the Melee side had issues several layers deep.
    Melee doesn't have online, so an online tournament requires a mod. Nintendo disapproves of mods, but this on its own isn't enough for them to get the lawyers in unless they are charging money for the mod or the mod makes it to headlines. However, this particular mod REQUIRED use of an emulator and could not be used with actual hardware - emulators being another area that Nintendo strongly disapproves but won't quite get them to use their lawyers so long as there are no headlines - but there is yet another catch, the emulators the mod is compatible with are NOT compatible with disk drives and cannot run Melee from a disk - using them requires copying Melee from the disk to the internal memory of the computer the emulator is on, and THAT is where the issue arises, because in Nintendo's view (and indeed, under Japan's anti-piracy laws) that constitutes piracy - piracy required to participate in the tournament.
    So their lawyers sent the organisers of the tournament a warning that they would be getting a Cease and Desist notice restricting their ability to stream or upload the tournament sent to them if they went ahead with what they were planning ... and the tournament organisers basically responed with "F U", and otherwise ignored Nintendo. At that point Nintendo's lawyers went ahead and sent them the Cease and Desist order covering both Melee and Ultimate because the tournament organisers refused to engage with them while acting in a manner that most lawyers would consider "bad faith" ... while also being incredibly rude. It should, of course, also be noted that the tournament organiser in question was for profit, and stood to make quite a bit of money from the tournament.

    That was incredibly brave of Weezy to both not condemn Basil, but also explain that (at least in Basil's eyes) his intentions are good. Both Tacobot and Pizzabot think they're right, but both sides fail to acknowledge the nuance of the situation in the same way that people who think all cheating is always bad do. At the end of the day, it comes down to a lack of empathy and an inability to understand others that leads to all this toxicity and infighting.
    The REALLY interesting part of all this, is that it shows the biases and selfishness both sides have. If Tacobot ACTUALLY wanted to get rid of Pizzabot, they'd go to Valve and make them realize there's a community of people abusing external programs in their game. If Pizzabot ACTUALLY wanted to get rid of Tacobot, they'd go to Valve and make them realize there's a community of people bullying and harassing users in their game.
    Both groups CLEARLY have a big enough community to get Valve's attention, but they're both so stubborn and blind they'd rather just stick to petty harassment that will never end instead of permanently solving the issue. Remember how Weezy said if all cheaters disappeared tonight, a new batch would show up tomorrow? Well that applies to "bad players" and toxic scumbags too. By doing nothing but kicking new players or harassing Tacobot/Pizzabot, both sides will just be stuck in an infinite, never ending battle with a much simpler, faster solution, that they both choose to ignore because they both genuinely think what they're already doing is right, when in reality, both sides are acting petty and stupid.

That sounds more like paranoid rambling than anything else, but them choosing to instead directly target each other the way they do already not because they are too blind or stupid to realize their opportunity, but simply because they enjoy harassing each other and use that to get their kicks is crazy to think about but at the same time not at all surprising.

      And sure, you could make the anemic argument that everyone is selfish because everyone wants to have fun, but not everyone is willing to do that at other peoples expense nor at the expense of the game’s integrity.
      Hell, I would even say cheating in solo depends entirely on how the game was designed and meant to be played. Is it a victimless crime? Sure, so there’s really no point in condemning it. But you’re still going against the developers’ wishes and are still delegitimizing the experience, so I would not say that it’s ‘okay’. I’d sooner say people are apathetic about it at best since no one but cheaters and people who’ve never experienced their impact would ever even remotely talk about it positively.
      This isn’t including cheaters who do it purely to grief. Regardless of if you’re doing it to vent frustration or because you find it funny, you’ve got sociopathic tendencies. I’d say ‘reflect on it’, but empathetically challenged folk will sooner dismiss the notion or laugh at it because they’re incapable or just unwilling to self-criticize.

    I'm personally against cheating in MvM because I'm one of those "Philosophically consistent" people. My fun in MvM is relaxing and just shooting braindead robots while I enjoy the power-creep. The loot is a nice bonus every now and then but generally, I get 4 tickets, and just play 3 of the 4 2-cities missions in Mann Up for a while. When I get bored of MvM I finish it up and rinse repeat sometime later. The main problem with cheating for me is it takes away the gameplay from ME. Cheating in a PvE mode isn't something I'm "against" per se, but it's not something I would like to do.

      I gotta say its been a while since I played tf2 and I only played Man vs Machine a couple of times, but when I did I found it fun. I think I always just played the casual version, but even if I was playing man up mode where it looks like you get rewards I would still not condone it at least when I am in the lobby. Personally even if I get loot as a reward in a video game I am against cheating to get it. I don't really care what others do as long as it doesn't affect me. At least with the gasoline can if it's part of the game I might be a little upset, but I would be fine with it because its part of the game and available to anyone. I know going into a game that could be something people use, and if I don't like it I would get upset at valve not the players. I genuinely enjoyed the game mode and by cheating they would be taking away my ability to play it through means that I didn't sign up for when playing it. By cheating unless they advertise that it will be happening I would be upset because I went in expecting an experience and had it taken away unilaterally without my consent thereby wasting my time. When someone cheats like this knowing there is other real people in the lobby that did not agree with it tells me they are selfish and don't think of the other players as real human beings deserving of respect. In regards to how people should act I don't see the difference between video games and an actual real life sport. Treat the people you are playing with like you would if you were on the court playing basketball or out in the field playing football.

After some digging I have verified that he is a separate person from the one he was accused of being (I have shared this info with a few people as a 3rd party verification, but not publicized it since it would be doxing), however this was done in late 2020/2021 so his reputation as a pedo was already cemented into mvm lore and I doubt he will ever truly be free of it.

    There are instances where I met cheaters in Bootcamp, they generally ruin the whole point of winning by skill of the team (or at least just two players). I play to get good results because it's fun to see how far I can push a certain class or a weapon. Having bad players on team just means I need to try harder to win (if it is winnable). Cheaters on other hand just make playing on the server almost completely pointless and they waste my time (especially when I find out they are cheating in the middle of the whole game).

    I'm definitely on the side of "read the room" in terms of cheaters. I also think we really should take people's personal feelings into account, it's very important for some players to be engaged in PvE and I get it, I'm the same way (usually). I think one great fix of course would be to prevent players from rejoining after a kick, which would prevent both cheaters and people like basil from reconnecting.
    Also I just wanna say the value being depreciated is just as much a feeling as other stuff you discounted on those grounds. Caring about monetary value for items you aren't relying on for a living (which you fundamentally can't because you lose money) is just as subjective as wanting a good gameplay experience. Just because you can quantify something, doesn't mean it's a better argument or less subjective. We do all of this for feeling good, not for materially supporting ourselves.
