Wow, the first sentence he speaks makes him sound like an egotistical jerk.

Isn't it definition of cheating? I believe that ZOS misundersdand something.
@TheMasterI don’t use this add-on because I don’t really do PVP, but if ZOS has not gone on the record and declared this to be cheating, then it’s not a cheating. Doesn’t matter how people personally feel about it.

I don't like Miat's addon. Not because I think it's cheating but because I believe it gives the player using it an advantage over one that isn't using it. I don't believe 3rd party addons/programs should give players advantages (especially in PvP). I just don't see how using it can be considered not being given an advantage. First, all addons are created for some benefit, some advantage to using it. No one uses addons that hinder their play or take away from the game. Miat's (specifically for the purpose of PvP) gives the player a crystal clear cue of an incoming projectile even before the projectile (poison injection, crystal frag, etc) has been fired off. The addon really diminishes the need for awareness in certain (but not few) situations. A player not using the addon must rely on a greater amount of awareness. Also, there was a time when Miat's addon was alerting the player using it of enemies in stealth around him/her, without their knowledge that they were known to be in the area.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. This is just mine.
Edit: I definitely think ZOS seriously needs to revisit all the API and make some decisions. I always say this when in these threads but I will say it again. Way back when, back when Mr. Paul Sage (Tamriel still remembers you old friend!) called for all API to be closed off to players.... He understood, he knew what would/could happen down the road. I think that says a lot about the whole topic of addons and whatever else may be out there.

Can only be cheating if the purveyors (ZOS) of the game say it is. Whether they officially say it in the forums, or in the terms of service. Miat’s addon in particular was apparently reviewed by ZOS sometime last year I think. There is no infraction of the rules by using Miat’s addon as far as I know.
I still believe (not sure how anyone can argue otherwise) that Miat’s addon gives the player using it an advantage over someone not using it. It’s like professional sports. There are a lot of rules in the books regarding PED and steroid use. You use it you are cheating and there are consequences. In ESO you can be on juice and TRT but not be breaking any rules.
How should non instanced housing work in any remotely plausible way? remember its one megaserver with more than 100.000 active players on.Chronicburn wrote: »Cheaters honestly don't bother me ... I barely have enough time to play, let alone worry about them ... just my 2c

This ZoS could simply say that it was not allowed to use that function in PvP.FloppyTouch wrote: »Ofc it's not cheating ZoS allows it.
But it's wrong gives an unfair advantage to anyone not using it. Creating an addOn that give away location and let's you know when a snipe is coming before it's shot is wrong. You should feel bad for making this and anyone that is using it is just as much in the wrong. Stuff like this makes me happy I switch to xb.
