GatorCheaters makes me curious (Destiny)

Mostly, I wonder how anything that offers this kind of augmentation is undetectable on the backend. Probably this is because I don't understand how aimbots actually work... but really, the only time I think about it at all is when stuff like this comes up.

I think Bungie and Riot want to know this too. Item 3 includes the software so they can see how the hack circumvented the anti-cheat stuff in the game.

I guess I always assumed that there had to be unauthorized access to underlying game data (which SHOULD be detectable, shouldn't it?)... but maybe there's another way that an aimbot can make you not miss?

I dunno.

I'm also unclear how cheating is satisfying for more than a few games. At some stage, wouldn't you just say "what's the point?"

Gotta get dat sweet loot bro.
