Cheating on Console
Does EA / Respawn or the community’s recognise that there is an actual problem?! Rapid Fire and Anti Recoil GPC scripts is a real thing that I think is prevalent in the game. Hop ups like the Anvil ...

@littlxr With strike packs and evil controllers out there, m&k on console is the lesser evil.
Not every person who's been using a controller their entire life, picks up a m&k and becomes better. I promise you they probably get worse. Because muscle memory and sheer experience is a thing.
Now anyone's who's been using a controller their entire life that picks up a strike pack/evil controller/etc modded controller will 100% gain the advantage with their anti recoil scripts/rapid fire/insta bhop.
M&K emulators are one step away from the Xbox Adaptive Controller. You don't have to be handicapped to use one, and there are tens of thousands third party devices you can hook up to that thing.

I literally couldn't care less if my opponents or team mates are M&K users. They're still having to play the same game and need to up their aim to counteract the lack of aim assist.
The anti recoil mods however are literally just a two's up to any honest FPS player. I really don't see how anybody can get any pleasure out of a match knowing full well they're having to manipulate the game to play it.
- @MandatoryIDtag While I appreciate your gutsy stance on KBM on console, it absolutely does give these players a significant advantage, even without the aim assist.
There are literally only a handful of people skilled enough on controller to compete with good KBM players. The reason (as I’m sure you already know) is that aiming with the arm is sooooo much more precise than aiming with a thumb.
Again— I admire your stance on not caring if your opponents use KBM, but I definitely think KBM users should not be competing against controller users.- @Axs5626Sxa5001 Yet on PC they already mix controller and M&K
Modded controllers and strike packs are the biggest threat to consoles.
Again with an Xbox Adaptive Controller they could be playing with a toaster and you wouldn't even notice.
- @MandatoryIDtag Agreed, I’ve been reading more about MK vs controller. I don’t think the advantage is that great. I actually helped one person who was trying to use MK on console. He was absolutely horrible with a MK.
We tried dozens of different settings and he just could not get it to click. I think it was the aim assist. We finally got him to try a controller and mirror my settings. He instantly improved and after 3 rounds had a 2k.
I think the people who cheat want to be good. But they don’t have the patience to spend hundreds of hours building the skills for it.So I'm pretty casual as a player. Lose far more often than win, takes me at least half an hour to 'warm up', and I'm not involved at all in the community or with streamers. My question is, does cheating happen a lot on console (XboxOne)? There have been a number of times recently, just in unranked/trios, where I'm left scratching my head:
- Got massacred by someone using Gibraltar who somehow found me and shot/killed me in the middle of Bangalore's smokescreen
- Got 3-shotted by someone whilst I was wearing purple armour; they were looting a deathbox when I started shooting them, so between them exiting the looting screen, finding out where I was an killing me seemed very quick.
- Have peeople instandly shooting me when appearing from behind a rock, or around a corner
It's feasible, of course, that I'm against decent players. But it seemed to me that in the 1st and 3rd example, the opponent could see me wherever I was. In the 2nd example, it seemed like an incredibly 'fortunate' case of aiming - how can you be in a deathbox looting screen, come out, spin around and hit me three times (presumably in the head)?
Is this kind of cheating becoming quite consistent on console? If so, it's obviously going to impact whether i bother keep playing the game. Doesn't seem worth it if people cheat in unranked!!
