Cheats don’t hurt Destiny 2 – Wants Bungie to sell an aimbot

Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

The shooter Destiny 2 has trouble with cheaters. So Bungie decided to sue the company behind the cheat program. But that didn’t go as smoothly as planned. Now the cheating company itself is threatening to sue, blaming Bungie and making a strange offer.

This is the situation:

  • The company “Aimjunkies” produces cheating programs for Destiny 2: among other things, aimbots, programs that eliminate any recoil, or that offer overlays that bring advantages to the player.
  • Bungie has sued the company for infringing copyright law, copying Destiny 2’s code, and reverse-engineering it to create their software.
  • However, in May 2022, Destiny 2 failed in court: The judge ruled that Bungie had not provided sufficient evidence as to how exactly the cheat software was a copy of the Destiny 2 code. Bungie was given time to submit this evidence later.

    This is how the cheating company reacts now: The cheating company is now trying to turn the tables and in turn wants to take legal action against Bungie and other companies.

    The logic of aimjunkies is:

  • Bungie says: Cheating harms Destiny 2. But that’s not true at all, the number of players in Destiny 2 has increased.
  • Bungie is trying to take legal action to solve a problem that despite all the resources they have in the game, they cannot solve it.
  • Ultimately, their product is just an “overlay” like that of Steam, and Bungie could also sell it in its own version.
    • The site wanted $35 a month for Destiny 2 Hacks.

    Cheating vendor compares its product to Steam’s Overlay

    A statement from the company literally says:

    “It is our view that we are offering a software product that does exactly the same thing as Steam or numerous other overlays. We believe that the Steam overlay or others are not copied works either. Bungie also claims that we are causing major damage to their game when in fact they had some of their strongest months in terms of player count and sales when Aimjunkies offered our product.”

    Cheat provider threatens to sue, alleging Bungie has a “schoolyard bully” mentality

    What do you want to sue Bungie for? Aimjunkies says: A Bungie employee or contractor purchased Aimjunkies’ cheat software and then had it decompiled and analyzed by an “unnamed company.”

    That would clearly be a violation of their terms of service.

    They say Bungie wants to make cheating illegal because they “can’t get a handle on their players.”

    Bungie has a strange suggestion:

    “We at Phoenix Digital Group have offered to work with Bungie on several solutions to solve their problems. We think we can put our features in one of their versions to drive them out, but of course their pride and schoolyard bully mentality prevent them from thinking outside the box.”

    The company apparently decides to go full on the counteroffensive. It wasn’t until June 2022 that Bungie struck a blow against cheaters, because in another lawsuit against a cheat provider, they left the court as the clear winner and with full pockets:
