1) the xim DOES trick your controller into thinking your USING a controller. Otherwise you would have not need to use an input adapter since both consoles support mk
- The xim apex actually CAN do things your standard controller CANT do such as run scripts
- It's pretty evident from FORTNITE that the xim and like adapters DO trick the system based on the fact that you load into a CONTROLLER lobby when using a xim.
- If you attempt to play fortnite by loading up with a controller and then SWITCH to mk you will get NO response from your mk and " input blocked" will appear on you screen. Because it reads it as a mk. This is NOT the case with a xim because the console is tricked into believing the commands are being sent via controller where they are actually being sent through the controller
2) it is cheating.

If you were to click on the link above you will notice there is a line about using unauthorized software...which is what the xim does. The software in the xim changes mk input to controller input
3)it is ruining the game because more and more people are having unfair experiences due to cheating xim users who need a mechanical advantage. This doesn't even touch on the fact that if xim weren't controlled console would lose sales due to players switching to pc. If I have to play against mk users anyway why not just a buy an equally price pc that performs twice as well when built specifically for gaming and would STILL offer me more versatility than console
4)maybe they're not garbage against their peers but they sure as * have a mechanical advantage over every single player they play against.
5) if the game doesn't support mk then it's because they didn't want it too. You don't get to just say "* it I'll bypass it with an adapter"....this is 2019. If they had wanted it to be mk functional on console than it would be. But console games are played with CONTROLLERS...and have been since 1972!
SIDE NOTE FOR YA...Microsoft recently helped fortnite to BLOCK adapter use
it's rather incredible how wrong you are about every single thing you posted the article you link is a click bait tittle that isn't the truth. I'm really impressed with how incorrect this entire post is
I'm a gamepad user on xbox and would prefer to play only against other gamepad users. No comment on the character or motives of either but let M&K and XIM users play against each other. How about that Respawn, is it possible?

it is not, you you'd have to block ALL third party devices. There goes all your Razr, Madkats, Turtle Beach, Skuff, and every other off brand device.
Truth is the frequency of use of these the devices are less than 1% of the population. I know it's hard to believe but some use them due to various disabilities. From a financial standpoint it's not worth the time and money to prevent this.
This was only a hot topic on the pugb forums and nothing was done because it's not as rampant as people think. It is however a perfect excuse to why you're underperforming in a game.
There's active streamers that use this device, in game movement, aim, and everything else is still governed by the game mechanics.
