I was searching youtube for setups for Assetto Corsa and accidentally clicked on this.

Quite possibly one of THE WORST reviews of a game i have ever watched on youtube it's from 2016 but just felt i had to post it
 
I can certainly understand his criticisms if he is driving in "Case Cam" and using a hand controller. I just don't work for me either.

Now if his comments relate to a a proper cockpit and wheel set up then I would say he has no idea of how to drive which is quite evident in his video ;-)

As far as his comments on the graphics, sounds and career mode he is pretty close to my opinion as well.
 
I watched a few of his other videos and his channel is all about car reviews/setups that kind of thing mainly for GT6 & Forza from the looks of things

I will agree that the graphics are not really too great but the fact he said Project cars is a better game is insane, maybe in terms of career mode and choice in terms of how you go about it etc but for me that's all it does better

AC blows it away in terms of physics for me at least i use a wheel but it's at least playable with a pad with the only thing i need to do is turn traction control to 100% and have ABS on Project Cars on the other hand feels horrible to me with a pad

as for the chase cam why is that still a thing lol it doesn't feel right to me it feels like (i'm sure he used the term in the review) i'm driving a radio controlled car
 
The guys an idiot he accused me of plagiarism because i asked him if i could use one of his tunes on GT6 and maybe upload a replay of me taking it for a spin and giving him credit.

I then told him how stupid he was then he went on to verbally abuse me and threaten to take down any vids that resembled his "style" or featured any tune that even resembled his "style"

i'm not the first person he's acted like this to i've seen him be pretty mean to a few other people too

If i were to use his tune and REVIEW it and credit him in the video like i told him i would he wouldn't be able to do a thing about it because of fair use
  1. What is fair use?
    In copyright law, there is a concept of fair use, also known as; free use, fair dealing, or fair practice.

    Fair use sets out certain actions that may be carried out, but would not normally be regarded as an infringement of the work.

    The idea behind this is that if copyright laws are too restrictive, it may stifle free speech, news reporting, or result in disproportionate penalties for inconsequential or accidental inclusion.

  2. What does fair use allow?
    Under fair use rules, it may be possible to use quotations or excerpts, where the work has been made available to the public, (i.e. published). Provided that:
    • The use is deemed acceptable under the terms of fair dealing.
    • That the quoted material is justified, and no more than is necessary is included.
    • That the source of the quoted material is mentioned, along with the name of the author

It's a review of the release spec of the game. I don't know how bad the game was at release or how much it has improved since, but it is one persons opinion who has played a lot of other games. I believe he uses a hand controller so some of the comments will not apply to wheel users.

It's a friggin game, you can copy his tune all day and make videos of it all day long and he can't do ****. You could also use his tune to review it which would then be fair use. If he doesn't want people to use his tunes then don't publish them.

Sure, but if you're trying to monetize your channel then you can't use infringing material, like music.

The best thing to do when you run into a douchebag like that dude is just walk away and laugh. His style... LOL WTF is his style?

That's the thing i asked him nicely if could use the tune and credit him IN THE VIDEO & DESCRIPTION since i haven't played GT6 in 4 years so i'm obviously slightly rusty when it comes to tuning and searched up tuning videos on youtube to help get me back up to speed and found his videos but if he's going to act like a spoilt child then he can quite simply go **** himself

Sure, but music is different. You're creating something. Tuning is just putting numbers into a game, numbers that presume come from do I laps. If no one could copy other set ups we could have a scenario where only x amount of people could use the best possible set up for track X.

There is no copyright or trademark on setups. I would simply tell him to do one after having asked him nicely. It's pathetic to cry about someone using their setups. I'm sure Google would tell him to do one too if he complained.
 
You're always going to have people like that though best not to pay attention to him and just go ahead and do it, if he does take down any of your videos just upload it again and if he takes that one down then do it again and again. You get the point ;)

If you like i could get my friend to give you some of his setups instead he plays GT6 most days (i wish i could but i no longer have my PS3)

His PSN is Speedcore-Menace you can add him if you like he'll be willing to help you out if you're in need of a few tunes etc

One very important aspect of "Fair Use" is to parody or satirise content. Boy oh boy if anyone is in need of this treatment it is this guy.

BTW if you get sued (which wouldn't happen) can you imagine someone standing up in court and saying "But this guy made fun of me on the internet". I'm laughing even thinking about it :-))
 
For those who seem to infantile to understand what 'plagiarism' consists of (which has precisely nothing to do with fair use, so try and educate yourselves and you might not look so dumb to someone who ACTUALLY uses such information all the time), yes copying a piece of content(s) from another creator categorically IS plagiarism.

It's not up for debate among millennial who have been taught that they are entitled to whatever they want and that they don't have to take responsibility for any of their actions.

So, for those who are clearly too backward to comprehend this remarkably simple issue, I guess I'll have to spell it out for you :

1. If you asked an author if they mind you taking their character and writing your OWN book in your 'own style', then the answer would be either 'no', or you would pay them royalties, since you did not come up with the character, concept or story. In fact, you could say that you have created nothing...at all. But are rather trying to jump start your own popularity by riding someone else's skill, which is clearly superior to your own, since you wouldn't need their content if you had ANY skill of your own.

2. When said creator, be it author or ANY other art or entertainment form (breaking news kiddies - YouTube is an entertainment form) politely says 'no' or that they would rather you didn't rip them off (which for the uninformed among you - is exactly what copying someone's tune for your own views and Adsense is) then how do you react? Do you A) respect the creators wishes in the spirit of the respect YOU claimed to have for them. Or B) do you revert to the language of a spoilt twelve year old and tell them that you're gonna do what you want and 'ain't nobody gonna' tell you cuz your momma told you your entitled to whatever you want.

Well the talentless hack in question, who also chose to post this BUSINESS matter (because yes kids - I make money from MY work and skill, on YouTube and otherwise) in a public forum rather than taking responsibility and contacting me in person.

Your damn right I'm going to block that weak willed, self-entitled man child.

And for the rest of you, who quite frankly have no say in the matter since it literally doesn't concern you, any more than your job and earnings concern me - why don't you try asking AR12 Gaming, PewDiePie, jacksfilms, Rhett&Link or literally ANY other YouTube creator, regardless of size (because for your information channel size has ZERO bearing on the matter of plagiarism) if they mind you releasing their content "in my own way".

In summary, I frankly couldn't care less about anyone's opinion of my methods on GTP, and I have made that clear before. And for those who are feeling lucky, go ahead and copy my tunes to their own YouTube channel (since THAT is what we are specifically talking about) and see how far you get with that, since Google values my channel far more than I care to elaborate on, and I have had copycats removed before. So go ahead, make a successful video ripping off my content, and then when you hit enough views for me to notice, I'll flag it, which FYI gives ME the Adsense from your video (look it up kids :D) AND gets it taken down.

Have a nice day.

Hi, I have to talk about one thing. In a message from the YouTuber Broughy1322, he talked about MrBossFTW using his research in his videos and he said that he couldn't stop it because it was information. You can't 'steal' information because nobody owns it. Your case is no different. Your setup is information. You don't own a 250mph setup for a Renault Clio, because nobody can. Somebody can easily find that setup themselves and use it and put a video on YouTube about it. There's nothing wrong with it. Your tuning setup videos are a source of information that can be found elsewhere, like the same article being in both The Sun and the Daily Express, and the Mail On Sunday. One of them can't sue the other because they stole information that happened to also be in their newspaper.

I'm Doomotron off of YouTube and I am one of your subscribers. I enjoy your videos, but I do think that'll change now.


That's all, folks.

But why be like that though anyone else would say "yeah that's fine as long as you make sure people know that i created the tune and you give me full credit" which i did intend on doing both in my video AND in the youtube description box i would never claim someone else's work as my own it was never my intention to claim i made the tune

BUT the fact still remains the same although you may have made the tune on GT6 you don't own that individual tune it's as simple as that ANYONE and i do mean ANYONE of the 7+ BILLION people that inhabit this planet can take your tune copy it and upload it, are you seriously trying to tell me that nobody but you can make and use that individual tune or upload it? what planet are you living on?

As for making money off it i don't intend to EVER monetise ANY of my videos because unlike the majority of people I DON'T CARE about making money on youtube my channel was made purely to showcase a videogame series i have love for almost 20 years i haven't been able to play it for the past 3 years and i found your setup videos from a quick search on youtube and they were quite helpful in giving me a baselin to work from so i could eventually get back into building my own setups but the way your going about the whole situation is like a child who had his sweets taken away and given to another child it makes you sound quite pathetic in all honesty

Isn't the reason you created these tunes to help other people (for most people that is the case) or was it simply to boast and say "look at how good i am i made this beast setup on GT6 but you can't use it and if you do i'll come after you"
 
I'm about to go to work so unfortunately I cannot give the elaborate reply I want to.

You are putting up limited information from a publicly available game on to a publicly available video hosting service, neither of which you own or have copyrights to. You are not making original music, scripture or film. Anybody with the game could accidentally punch in all the same numbers that you have in to a tuning sheet after a simple little trial and error.

If you think you are being wronged, then you are wrong, If you don't want people using or copying your tunes, then don't put them on the internet for the world to see. Your attitude to it all stinks as well, your sense of self-entitlement seems too high, judging by the amount of insults you just posted.

I'm not one to use insults myself, but you handled this like a complete ass to be quite honest. Your acting like a queen over a 4 year old video game on a last gen console, get over yourself.
 
It would be a different story if it was one of your videos that you created that someone downloaded and uploaded to their channel and claimed it was theirs then you would have the right to claim the video and have it taken down you own the VIDEO but you do NOT own the tune you may have created it but you don't OWN it

Plagiarism? Dude It's a game, it's a tiny tiny part of the game.
*Oh I'm going to sue you because you copied my tune on a video game* lol?
You don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to crying about other people making money off your tunes. You make money off a video game you never created, bit ironic?

I don't see what the big deal is. It's a set-up for a car in a video game. There's no need to be like that. I mean, whose it going to harm? There's poor people dying in other countries such as Africa who have NOTHING & you're complaing about people wanting to know your tunes for a car that it's in a game. Take that in for a second.

And you'll flag other people's videos if they have similar tunes to you? Somebody could have the exact same tune as you that they created their self & if they got a lot of views for it you'd just flag it. Bit of a pathetic threat.

Also Video games & books/stories are a bit different.
Copying some tunes for a car in a video game is a bit different from copying a story & characters from a book for crying out loud.

You hit the nail bang on the head he doesn't have a leg to stand on and he's acting like a child
 


Not the worst review I've seen myself, but I did like the bits where he told us that turning the traction control off with a controller makes the cars twitchy/wheelspin a lot under acceleration - or that no 'pro' would use traction control in cars like, say, the Huracan GT3.

I wonder if I I could go ahead and use this info in my own video............or do I need to ask permission first?
