Overwatch & Xbox One Rep system

Got reported over 18 times for "cheating" and 3 more times within 2 days on Overwatch due to playing in a party and stomping on other players. I never use my mic besides being in a party on Overwatch and always try my best to help the team. I have been a
member on Xbox for over 8 years and never once had an issue with my "rep".

This system has to go! I was informed by a Microsoft employee over the phone to post here with the issues I'm having. I can't even begin to think how other players can have that much power over you, Microsoft says they can't do anything about it over the
phone and says they are trying to work with Blizzard on a better system.

You will need to play with people with similar rep & not get any negative feedback & then your rep will go back up.

 

Anything? I didn't even receive a warning. No games are being found. How are people supposed to play this game then?

 

Well if you dont cheat then those people wont get in trouble and the bad rep will go away after probably a week or two.

This happens a lot in for example COD. On the 360 four friends gave me a bad rep in one game that still is probably on my 360.

I think nothing will become of it even though the rep told you to come here. I think they do that just to get rid of "the real complainers" (no offense) because they want to rush thru with the people with "real problems. (again no offense)

 

For one how am I to cheat on Xbox One on a game that just came out? I've seen cheats on PC but not on Live besides CoD modders. I don't cheat as this game is so new that I wouldn't know where to begin.

Its ok about me complaining cause I will not give it one days rest till I at least get an answer. Even then I feel the system is a waste. I figure if I continue calling, complaining, wasting time even of 1 Microsoft employee I make up for the time I'm not
getting onto a server in Overwatch.

They say to play other games besides the ones that use this system. Really Microsoft? You would rather us not play this game that we paid for already?

I've seen mods respond in a posting of what each offense players have done in recent days to deserve a enforcement reaction but I get reported for cheating over 18 different times? I feel the reports are over a device I use that allows me to use a mouse
and keyboard. Overwatch players feel its cheating maybe and report me.

Think thats fair? Cause Xbox/Microsoft allows the use 3rd party devices but doesn't recommend it and suggests official.

 

The mouse and keyboard thing could be considered cheating if the developers dont like them in the game. About 6 years ago when they came out (or was it just them being popular? )I remember a COD game was enforcing no mouse keyboard things. There was a 200
page argument thread on it at one time. A dev finally stepped in and announced it. That was about a year before the IW split up thingy.

If I were you I would contact the devs to get an answer on that just to be safe.

Thing is with Microsoft (I am a long time gamer too) is after so much of you calling etc. They will tell you just what you want to hear.

And yes I know its OK thru MS to use them. But the devs sometimes call the shots.

You should see how bad it was one time when Fedex lost my xbox, and actually never delivered it.

 

Complaining on XBL may not help as much as going to the Blizzard forums so the actual devs can see it an "unblock" that bad rep block they seem to have.

 

Sorry for the xtra post.

" since the only advice Microsoft gives you is to play other games without getting any blocks. "

Sounds like MS is only going to guess at this problem til Blizzard works on it.

good Luck

 

Just wondering how you use a mouse with your Xbox one.

 

Yapper I cant remember what its called but there is a very popular adapter out there that plugs in the mouse keyboard to the console. Dont know if it works in the menus tho,

 

The one I am aware of is cronus max I think its called I have seen some others as well.

They tamper with your console and not allowed for gaming that's why people have been reporting you.

Its like a digital mod, I believe Microsoft will be bringing full mouse use in the future they should of told you not to use a mouse for gaming on your Xbox one console good luck hope you get your rep back soon.

 

Its called a XIM4 and no its not againest the ToS. As far as the IW thing, yes the CEO if I remember correctly had an issue or something with it but they can not detect it anyhow. It's not inserting any extra code or doing anything extra that a controller
can't do. I'm restricted/limited in every way by what the controls each game use.

Heres the page that had the Microsoft employee say it was alright as its viewed as a 3rd party device:

I just don't understand why would they continue to use Rep on Xbox One when players have the option to basically make the game your playing useless. I'm viewing it like our prison system here in United States as its clearly not working and is just a for
profit system now. Putting people in prison for marijuana possession charges for life when more corrupted and dangerous people are on the streets doing real crimes.

 

As I said earlier you cannot use a mouse to play games on a Xbox one console, but I will check for you.

 

No your not able to play with a mouse or keyboard passively on a large majority of games on consoles as the developers don't support it. I've only seen 2 or so on console truely support it.

Thats why I've opted to use a XIM4 gaming adapter that I plug a mouse, keyboard, and official Xbox One controller into then plug the device into my Xbox One. Its basically a racing wheel equivalent but for mouse & keyboard.

It's perfectly legal to use.
