  CORRECTION! <br>(1) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZaJsMNYECo&amp;t=4545">1:15:45</a> - I meant to say Game Bans are not <b>usually</b> manual bans. They can be, but that&apos;s rarely the case. My bad.<br>(2) I oversimplified my mention of the shimmy situation and made a mistake. Apparently, it wasn&apos;t <b>just</b> Kovaaks cheating that got him caught. Rather, the FPS counter was the catalyst to be caught in that game, but in other situations, it was a different story. <br><br><br>By the way, defaulting to the pronoun debate does not help the case on either side of a discussion like this.

  I will definitely have to rewatch this multiple times in the future since there was quite a lot of information packed in here, but overall, my first impressions is that this was a very good video, you may rest know, and thank you for your hard work!

  Great vid on the matter and note to self whenever I get around to watch something relatedto cheating and with clips do it on my computer instead of on my phone.<br>I do think that Riley may have cheated in some of the areas, mostly due to her inconsistency while playing on separate days and dispoportionately high human eye reaction, the segments of August 18th show a very clean gameplay in comparison to the ones on August 8th that smell like a street on Delhi. Also very funny how recoil just dissapears, which confirms that Battlefield 6 is actually programed on the GameBryo Engine and not Frostbite.

  Blatant cheating from Emily all over this video. Honestly, the gall of it is disgusting. Robocop just doesn&apos;t move like that. You are hereby expelled from the Cool Community but will receive an invite to the Aim Community in 2-3 business days.

  This was the video to finally confirm my suspicions of riley cheating. It wasn&apos;t for the reasons I thought it was, but it also wasn&apos;t for reasons I didn&apos;t think were cheats. I have completely glossed over the absolute inhuman reactions she had on her 2nd day of the BF6 Beta, I was more focused on her being the worst on her first day of the BF6 Beta. Right now she&apos;s looking more normal like you have mentioned and I wouldn&apos;t be surprised if either TeamEXE or riley herself does mention it in the future. Thank you Emily for this fantastic video and hopefully I get to see more content similar to this from you

  Frankly, everyone in the aim community that defended this by claiming bigotry or a lack of skill absolutely DOES deserve all the hate they get.<br><br>That is lowdown, scummy ass behavior. It poisons the well completely and is so disingenuous it makes my head spin.

  Excellent analysis, Emily!<br><br>Feel like some people are gonna be upset that it wasn&apos;t just confirming their biases one way or the other though 😅

  If anything, this video was very packed with information and interesting. It is very hard for people that aren&apos;t as invested into games requiring aim and quick reflexes to judge wether someone cheats or not. As someone who hasn&apos;t been playing anything the like since BO3 (and that on console mainly for Zombie Mode fun), I found your arguments and frame-by-frame coverage rather convincing, but would still not be 100% certain how much cheats were involved at the end of the day. I think the most important takeaways in the end from all this are:<br>- cheaters exist in all competitive communities, and &quot;good&quot; players can cheat just like &quot;bad&quot; players can, being good is no excuse<br>- any discussions should generally be as respectful, objective and focused on the subject as possible; they should not devolve into namecalling or disregard if you aim for a fruitful discussion and a satisfying conclusion or outcome, like verification rules or the like for a community<br>- clips don&apos;t equal general gameplay; they are highlights, and we should always be careful with our judgement without knowing the full context (there is a clip where riley shoots into a smokecloud in Karl Jobst first video on the topic, and he found the original source of the clip where the video quality was better, making the cloud less obstructive compared to the clip that went viral on a different platform with worse video quality - the target was visble in one clip, but not in the other)<br>- who really cares about the players gender, or even all other qualities or characteristics? It doesn&apos;t make them more or less likely to be cheaters, and their followers decide wether or not they enjoy their content, they decide if any of that is a dealbreaker for them. If someone is annoying and arrogant, it doesn&apos;t mean they cheat, but it might mean less people like them and that&apos;s ok, and even a well-respected community member can be exposed for cheating

  Silly Emily, Riley didn&apos;t just become a different person and get shit at the game, she de-transitioned out of the aim community 🙏
