Minecraft Speedrun Dream posts full response to cheating claims

Earlier this month, a Youtuber named GeoSquare posted a video claiming that Minecraft Youtuber Dream’s 1.16 speedrun record had been achieved by cheating, and hence his record should be discarded. 

Soon after GeoSquare’s 14-min long video titled “Did Dream Fake His Speedruns – Official Moderator Analysis” went live, it went viral and within 2 weeks the video had more than 2.6 million views. In the description of the video, GeoSquare stated that “this video is NOT my content. Please please DO NOT interact with my channel after watching this, this is just a PSA from the mod team.”

GeoSquare is also a moderator of speedrun records and after posting his video, the forum went wild and accused Dream of faking his speedrun to garner more views and fame. Following which a drama unfolded on Twitter where Dream hit back at GeoSquare, calling the accusations “total BS” and labeling the video clickbait and GeoSquare using his position to tarnish Dream’s name. 

Following the drama, Dream promised a full response with adequate proofs to back up his claims. Yesterday he followed through that promise and posted a 24-min long rebuttal video, where he provided a full analysis of the “luck”, he went as far as hiring an astrophysicist statistical expert to disprove the claims of his “luck” being possible only through “cheats”.

The video is divided into 4 sections: Professional statistical analysis, public access files, corrections to false information, and new information. TLDR of the video is that there is no statistically significant evidence that Dream was modifying the probabilities and his odds were “consistent with the random chance.”

Finally concluding his video, Dream said:

“I don’t care at all about my speedrun, I care more about defending my character than defending a dumb leaderboard position. I have an amazing community and an amazing group of fans, and I don’t need to officially speedrun. I do it because I like it. I get fewer views on my record videos than I do on my normal videos.”

In less than 24 hours, Dream’s response video had close to 1 million views and started trending on Youtube’s gaming section. GeoSquare and other moderators of speedrun records haven’t responded to Dream’s video yet.

This CSGO Map Location is all set to seek Heritage status by UNESCO

Cache may not be a map that is loved and revered in the world of Counter Strike: Global Offensive. However, the map may well have a part of world history to showcase in the near future. The government of Ukraine have proposed to UNESCO to make the Chernobyl and its exclusion zone a World Heritage site.

Chernobyl is not safe for civilization yet and will not be for thousands of years, according to the government. However, it still attracts a lot of tourists every year.

The government is looking for the World Heritage Site as that would help attract more tourists to Chernobyl while also enabling them to preserve and protect the area in a much more comprehensive manner.

CSGO Chernobyl

The Chernobyl plant is visible in Cache from the T-spawn, with the map based in Pripyat, Ukraine, which is just 3 miles away from the Chernobyl power Plant. Pripyat, like Chernobyl, was left uninhabited due to the area becoming radioactive after the nuclear explosion. In fact, Pripyat was closer to the power plant than the city of Chernobyl.

The Chernobyl exclusion zone will take up to 20,000 years before the radioactivity becomes so minimal so as to make it inhabitable. If UNESCO does provide the Chernobyl exclusion zone, Cache will become part of it as well, albeit virtually.

Perhaps, this will help lower the number of csgo players that seem to have an issue with the map.

How did Corpse Husband repopularise Bingus?

Corpse Husband was one of those several fans of Bingus, posting about the cat on multiple occasions across his social media, publicizing his love for the sphynx. In his Among Us games, he can be seen using Bingus as his ‘activation’ word, whereupon shouting “Bingus” he will kill the guy next to him provided he is the imposter.

Corpse Husband recently came out about his chronic illness which is sad and shocking at the same time. With his cheerful personality, no one could have guessed that he is hiding such a thing behind the scenes. We can only hope for a better 2021 for Corpse Husband as well as ourselves.

Total Gaming hits the milestone of 1M likes on his live stream

Total Gaming could be regarded as the biggest gaming YouTuber in India and a large part of his success on this platform is due to the famous battle-royale game Free Fire and his grasp over it.

He has reached many successful landmarks in his journey and for the first time, he has completed the goal of getting over one million likes on his live stream.

Total Gaming or Ajju Bhai is a very well-known name in the Free Fire community and he is the largest influencer that represents the content creation side of Free Fire in India. He is about to reach 18 million subscribers on YouTube and has collaborated with many other big names in his journey.

In his recent stream, Total Gaming pledged to climb the rank ladder in Free Fire with his star studded squad of Desi Gamer, Jonty Gaming, and Mania. The goal was to reach from Gold to Grand Master in about 18 hours and Ajju Bhai streamed a lot longer than planned and ended up doing a stream of about 20 hours.

During this long run, he managed to reach yet another landmark where the stream reached a goal of one million likes while it was still live.

This is not an easy feat for any streamer around the world and an Indian streamer playing Free Fire managed to attain this goal.

This is the testament of the huge mobile gaming fan following in India and its prominent faces making a permanent mark in the content creation slowly and steadily.

Valorant Hidden Point System Leaked

Valorant Hidden Point System Leaked

While Valorant players have a general idea of how the ranking system works in the competitive shooter, finer details of it are still unknown to anyone except the developers.

However, it looks like players might finally have some of the answers that they were looking for, as dataminers have found out game codes that point towards a hidden ‘Points’ system in Valorant that determines your in-game rank.

Currently, players can estimate their progression to the next (or previous) ranks through the post-game screen, where they can see green or red arrows to indicate their rank progression.

Popular Valorant dataminer ‘Valorant Leaks’ has shared his recent findings through a Twitter post. According to the tweet, in each rank, Valorant players have a number of ‘points’ associated with their accounts. Winning games increases this number while losing games lowers it.

It can be assumed that reaching 100 points promotes players to the next rank, while the precise number for a demotion is still unknown.

The dataminer has also claimed that the hidden ‘points’ system is already live in-game. However, players have no access to this information.

Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.06 Patch Notes: Bug Fixes, Performace Improvements and More

Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.06 with quest bug fixes, performance improvements, and much more now available.

CD Projekt Red is on their way to redemption after having one of the worst game launches ever. The company in their public announcement last week had asked players to patiently wait for updates that will start coming in a few days and give another chance to the company.

Just today the company had released a second update after the said announcement and as promised, Update 1.06 addresses some important quest-related issues alongside performance-related problems on the console and most importantly it deploys a fix for the save corrupt bug. The latest update is now live for both console and PC.

Cyberpunk 2077 Update 1.06 Patch Notes

1. Quests

Dum Dum will no longer go missing from Totentanz’s entrance during the Second Conflict.

2. Console-specific Performance tunning

Improved memory management and stability, resulting in fewer crashes.

3. PC-specific bug fix

Removed the 8 MB save file size limit. Note: this won’t fix save files corrupted before the update.

As promised on the forums, CD Projekt Red has temporarily removed the 8MB save file size limit in hopes to fix the save corrupting issue till a more permanent solution is rolled out. While this will avoid future save files from corrupting, the files that were already corrupt before the update can’t be restored and players will need to start from older working save or restart their journey from scratch. 

While for console players, improved memory management will result in overall stability improvement and will fix crashes caused due to full memory.

Cyberpunk 2077 is available now on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia.

Tfue gets “swatted” while streaming Minecraft live on Twitch

Tfue gets “swatted” while streaming Minecraft live on Twitch

Superstar streamer Turner Tenney a.k.a Tfue appears to have been swatted today during his live stream session. 

The Twitch star was streaming Minecraft when distant sounds of some people can be heard ordering Tfue to come outside with his hand raised up. Soon Tfue gets up and leaves. The streamer can be heard repeating, “I have my hands up officer” several times as he moves to go outside. 

After several minutes his following conversation with the officer cannot be heard and the stream also went silent hoping to hear more from Tfue when he comes back. After sometime Tfue returns to his computer and sits silently for some time staring at the camera. 

Soon he explains what happened to chat and laughed it off to again being streaming Minecraft. After a moment, he gets a donation from one of his viewers claiming to be the swatter who said “get swatted,” to which Tfue simply replied, “nice man, you got me… got me real good.”

For those unaware of Swatting, it is an act of making a hoax emergency call to police authorities with reasons like the suspect is a drug dealer, abuser, armed, etc in the hope of an armed dispatch being sent to the home of the unsuspecting target to scare him off. 

Generally, the main targets of these “swatters” are Youtube and Twitch streamers. They call in the swat in hope of watching the event unfold live in real-time on the stream. This isn’t the first-time Tfue was the target of “swatting”, last time it happened when he was streaming Fortnite scrims matches. 

Although as harmful and simple as it sounds, swatting is dangerous and has caused fatal incidents in the past, with one unsuspecting target getting shot by the police resulting in the death of an innocent man.
