The big XPM / competitive gaming thread

#37
I don't see why or how you would want to enforce mental timing of items as the only non-cheat way. Using defer is no different from using a hardware clock or a small piece of software to do the exact same thing. It's of course easier with defer, but there are alternatives to it, should it be removed.

You're proposing to axe a useful console command because somebody might be using it to time items, which they can do otherwise with a little more effort. This would therefore mostly affect "legitimate" uses of defer.

I agree with you though, not all users of defer (btw, do they even exist?) would mod their engine to bring the command back. And those who do are indeed ill-intentioned. But good luck finding out who does that.
