mouse ps4 cheat

I want to stop the PS4player using the mouse

  • The developers voluntarily removed the "Mouse and keyboard" tab from consoles' settings. If they wanted us to use mouse and keyboard, they would have left the tab.

    Circumventing limitations implemented by design with third party adapters for mouse and keyboard that spoof DualShock 4 is what I personally call cheating or hacking. In a way, using a coffee machine to boil water or prepare a Cup-a-Soup is hacking. 

    (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_culture#Ethics_and_principles)

    I'm not saying it's inherently bad. All I'm saying it that it goes against the developers' design and against PlayStation's Terms of Service and User Agreement. People who use such devices to circumvent current limitations are at risk to lose access to Apex Legends, their Origin Account and even their PSN profile.

  • I've already taken notice of your bias. A lot of garbage in your post. M&k on console is a crutch for awful players & absolutely nothing more. They absolutely profit off of these people who've already paid in excess of 100$ just to use m&k vs controller players, & seeing how far down the list of complaints this is they have no reason to spend resources reverting it. At worst they make money off these people. Any future cross play will absolutely restrict m&k use vs controller players because of how much it screws with the integrity of the game.

    But you go ahead & keep dreaming. Continuing to repeat & pretend that m&k vs controller isn't an inherent advantage isn't going to make you any less wrong about it.

    yeah, because you have no bias. sure buddy. mnk is not a crutch, I know you want it to be labeled as such. your premise is garbage players use it. that isn't true: all skill levels of player use it. same as controller. your premise is if someone is poor at controller they will be God tier with mnk. that is the biggest lie ever told: if you suck at gaming switching to mouse and keyboard, native or emulated isn't going to make you better. a gamer good with a controller has the ability to be good with a mouse and keyboard and visa versa. you know that. 

     

    now we seem to have a misunderstanding about who profits off of who, you had first said Apex Legends profits off the emulators. that is ridiculous and I crushed you for it. now your saying "they",. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and guess your talking about the people who make the 3r party adapts. yes... they made a product and sold it for a profit.... and? Sony makes a mouse and keyboard emulator for their console too. it's called the hori tac pro (this has emulated mouse support built in) and it's been in use for I think over 5 years. Microsoft as I'm sure you heard has developed in tandom with Razer the first ever wireless mouse and keyboard designed for the xbox. so whats your point?  products are made for profit? no... I know what it is. you're saying people are paying to win. like paying over 150$ for an elite controller and even more for 3rd party custom controllers? or paying for better internet, better screens and pro/elite version of the consoles? mouse and keyboard is cheap and like anything can be expensive. this is gaming and gamers love their past time. don't act like it's incredible gamers spend excessive amounts of money on gaming and the things related to it. 

     

    the integrity of gaming on consoles has only been strengthend by the introduction of mouse and keyboard support. that's a good thing and impressive. like I said, and this is a fact. if every single person who owned any brand of mnk emulator all played Apex Legends at the same time, it would amount it less than 1% of people playing. yet it gets blamed for a majority of losses. the saltiness is real in gaming but that's just how it is. 

     

    I never said mnk wasn't an inherent advantage. it most definitely is a better way to control shooter games. native support is definitely leaps and bounds better than a controller but the reality is that isn't was an emulator is. an emulator is bound to the same limitations of a controller. if it was not you be would right.  this is not case. it can perform better with the same limitations of the controller but that is completely dependent on the skill of the user. you should try it. you'd realize it isn't what you think it is. 

  • My god. Not only only do you lack reading comprehension, but you have your head so far up your own * about this all you do is make false assumptions & end up arguing with yourself. You're so clearly overly obsessive about this & it is wholeheartedly pathetic. 

    I've seen firsthand xim4 being used on Battlefield 4, Fortnite, & native m&k on X1 COD Infinite Warfare. I've already seen everything I'll need to see. It's still much easier to play at higher sensitivities if someone is experienced with it, + having aim assist. In all of these examples it was being used to massive levels of success by people who would openly admit that they're awful with controllers. As I'm sure you are too but then try to turn it around & spin it as if other people are trash while you wholeheartedly defend your crutch. What a [Edit - Admin.] lol.  I bet you're trash on PC where you can't keep up, but probably even worse with a controller. Which makes everything about your stance incredibly sad

    M&k has not strengthened the integrity of anything on console. That statement is in fact so delusional, that's where the discussion ends. There's no point wasting my time on some imbecile like yourself in all honestly. You speak of me having bias when you could easily just be playing on PC....but aren't apparently? And for what reason would that be exactly...? Rhetorical question because I don't actually care. You're the one obsessed with trying to convince people that m&k vs controller isn't advantage in this game, which is not true & is incredibly suspect. But it doesn't matter. I'm not going to make this my problem. I ultimately came in here initially just to state first comment then leave. 

    Someone should make a meme out of this guy

    Everyone: *minding their own business*

    Full951: M&K DOESNT DO * ON CONSOLE, WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?? ITS LIKE THE SAME. ARE U [Edit - Admin.]LISTENING!?!??!"

    Lol go ahead & enjoy that last word. Bozo

    lol. I'm not trying to convince anyone mnk isn't better. it's definitely better. but it's not cheating. I want you never to forget the things I've told you. the transition to universal perifial compatability on console is underway. don't give me that I should be playing on pc crap. take notice on what happening in gaming. this is part of its near future. you don't have to like it. but it's here. 

  • Sorry Mr Salty but it is cheating. M&K have a speed and accuracy that duel-shock cannot match. It seems to me these M&K users are terrible players on P.C so need the advantage on other users on console. It ruins games, go play on P.C. or hopefully soon all console players will have the ability to match with only duelshock controllers and block K&M players. 

  • yes with several adapters that emulate a controller to mouse and keyboard. ironically the most used is named "Apex XIM"

    Quick adition to the discussen in general: People using a dolby gheadset also have an adavantage over people sitting on a stereo TV. How to solve this?
    To behonset, there are players on console who are much better with a controller than I ever would be with mouse and keyboard. Look at "zeus resurrected" on PS4 or even on PC people are voluntarly playing with controller: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rnoas13V7gY
