It could be argued that external view is cheating. Or reloading. Or anything less than 100%.

But since they put all these options into the game to suit everyone's play style, it would be silly not to use them.

So yes, I'm a cheater, and it's all Dan's fault!

Exactly. They put the options there so they can be used. Saying what is correct and what isn't correct isn't correct. I don't know why people feel they need to pass judgement on what someone else finds fun, just because they don't play that way. Everyone's a cheater in some way. I cheat all the time.

@CaptainMattJ.

Whatever way you play the game is the right way so long as you are enjoying the experience

One observation if I may...try to remember to move the game cursor out of view before taking the picture

For everyone's information it was a joke and no intention of calling anyone a cheat.

@CaptainMattJ nice pics.

@DavyJonesFootlocker i took it that way. The written word is tough for sarcasm and joking at times, we've all been there.
