M n K (Mouse and Keyboard) cheating in competitive console games.

VagannpiJMG · Mar 24, 2020

I play Rainbow Six Siege which is a competitive game that mouse and keyboard on console is not allowed. People would typically use third party devices to bypass that but do you think Xbox could find an issue against that? Or will it just stay how it is?
Also to understand it is cheating, Rainbow 6 has different recoils for different platforms I. e. pc recoil is harder and difficult while console recoil is easier because youre using a joystick. So m n K users are taking advantage of the easy recoil. (Not a
question I just want to to hear people's ideas.

sure it is cheating. but unless you are at the pro level, what does it matter. match making should put you with people of similar skill, or less skilled people with m&k. someone with the same skill using m&k might be a bit higher in the rankings, but not
much

Yeah I've had this before, playing Halo Reach on the 360 a person had a keyboard set up. I don't like when people do this to get the upper edge on a game. I just don't understand what you get out of cheating. It should be a insta ban in my opinion.

This will be hard to monitor, but yes if it's not allowed it should be banned. How do you catch someone if you can't see it?

I think that there should be an option to exclude PC players from games. A better filtering option.

Those third party items are not licensed so yes I would think microsoft and xbox would have issue with it. Since they left MnK up to the developers I would imagine the devs that purposely left it out would consider it cheating. The only problem is the
proof I guess.
