So, I have come to know that people use modded TVs to improve their performance in battle.
I won't be naming names but this is a shameful behaviour and these people should be ashamed of themselves.
But I will reveal how this modding works so CCP can deploy the appropriate countermeasures to it.
The way this works is by marking the center of your TV screen with a dot of some sort. Now what this does is that you will never lose track of where the center is and where you have to aim to deal damage. CCP balanced some weapons in a way that the iron sight won't be pointing in the center of the screen, thus making it harder to apply damage. With a modded TV though you can circumvent this balancing method which will result in people dealing more damage than intended.
Now that this form of cheating has been revealed I'm sure we will see CCP deploying a hotfix in due time and permaban the perpetrators.
Enjoy your modded TVs while you still can, suckers!
Jebus still hates scans.

*facepalm* I doubt most players could calculate the exact center of their screen much less mark it accurately. 3/10 troll, for at least trying.

Having a cross in the middle of your screen dont make you a better player and must be bothering sometimes... I dont see how CCP could ever detect these "modded TVs" as you call them.
Btw, aiming in the middle of the screen is the BASIC of any FPS. Good luck shooting at anything if the ADS doesn't work prperly ...

step 1 place traslucent sticker in the aproximate middle of your TV (hopefully one that can be removed and replaced without leaving film)
step 2 take any mesuring device and measure diagnally across your TV or moniter and place a dot halfway....
its not exactly a difficult task

Everyone's talking about using rulers and measurements to find the center of the tv.
No one thinks about just aiming with a weapon and putting the sticker on the dot of the sight.
Come on people, THINK.

Bad troll is bad.
Anyway, use the sniper rifle and scope in. Place dot over the dot. Boom!
Btw, marking the middle of the screen does not make a weapon fire any faster. Sniper rifle can still be tricky in cqc, especially with wll the scouts running around.

I've posted about this on a number of occasions as a way to help with quick scoping (and other sniping so that you're not constantly in your sights). It's fun to play as a light assault with a tac sniper rifle and smg, about 150m out from the action. Having a sight marked on your screen makes it easier to quickly line up your shots, without having to ADS too long. As tape and marker technology is widely available, I don't really think this is an exploit of any kind. Moreover, it only really helps with a couple (highly sub-optimal) play styles.
P.S. I wonder if range/angle of fire markings for weapons with a parabolic path would be helpful... |

I heard about this a long time ago and tried it. I found it highly annoying and not useful at all.
The dot even made long range shooting worse for me.
And my wife got pissed whenever I forgot to remove the tape lol.
The only real truth in history is that it was bloody.
