'Fortnite' Hands User FaZe Jarvis Lifetime Ban for Using Illegal Aimbots

The 17-year-old revealed that Epic Games had punished him for using "simbots" during a recreational game that he streamed on his Youtube channel. Jarvis admitted to using the hack which allows users to auto-focus their weapons during an emotional Youtube video. Jarvis also said that he was banned from playing the game or attending any Fortnite conventions for life. He wasn't aware that this would carry such a harsh penalty, especially since he never used aimbots during competitive games.

"All I was thinking about whilst I was making those videos was just how entertaining and interesting these videos would be for you guys to watch," he said. "It didnt even cross my mind to think that I could be banned for life from Fortnite from those videos. I just want to be clear that this is the first time that I have ever done anything like this and of course I have never done this in a competitive game mode at all."

Jarvis reiterated this sentiment in a tweet in which he claims that this ban is not the end of his professional gaming career.

Eh, fuck him. Literal aimbotting.

If they lighten up the penalty for a first offense I wouldn't really mind. But it's fine if he stays banned.

"It's just a video bro!"

Why do these idiots think they are special just because they're making a Youtube video or a Stream?

Why? He wasnt using it in competitive games. Seems unfair. He didnt hurt or cheat anybody.

Basically a program that will focus your aiming reticle on an enemy player for you in a first person shooter.

Is casual a mode where you just kind of run around the map and build stuff? Or is it just an unranked mode? I haven't played Fornite in ages. I assumed it was just unranked. If it was the former, I can see the argument.

He has almost 2 million followers
there goes his money
Damn, 2 million? I would be crying too.

Oh well, he better get on that PUBG.

Ain't no walls going to save him from bullets over there though, better learn how to engage in gun battles like a man.

I don't think there is a non-competitive mode, is there? If you're playing the game, you're playing against other people. Just because it wasn't a pro match doesnt mean he can cheat.

And a lifetime ban would be a bit harsh if he wasn't a high profile player broadcasting his cheating to a large fanbase. They basically have to come down hard on him in order to set an example.

I gave it a shot after hearing people hype it up so much. Was super disappointed, but third-person just isnt a POV that works for me in multiplayer. Add that to being brand new with doubts and it turned me off quickly.

Eh, fuck him. If your fun is cheapening other people trying to have their fair experience, you deserve to be checked. I don't even understand what's fun about winning something you cheated at. For me, being on either side of cheating is a cheapened experience.

Aimbot is cheating, simple as that.

I used Aimbot hacks when I played Halo CE.

Once you know how the physics of the system works, you don't even need the aimbot anymore because you can now be like "Oh, I was aiming wrong the entire time, I should be predicting where they're going for easy headshots" or you can also easily fake out how to play against Aimbots because you're using one yourself.

biggest issue i have with it is bloom. nothing like hitting one out of every 10 bullets. as much shit as it gets, it's not an easy game to get good at.
