Re: Have you noticed the cheaters on console? Cronus zen etc..

I know a lot of people think that way, but IMO it’s still buying something to give an advantage.  I wish people could just play the game WITHOUT needing all the bells and whistles to make it easier for them. It’s hard out here for an old school mindset who refuses to use anything but a standard controller!

    @MissTawnieeee Having buttons underneath the controller is more natural. It allows a person to use more fingers to play instead of wrecking their hands playing claw. It isn't cheating. I don't get why it hasn't become standard. Well I do. It's cheaper to make the controllers that are stock and they can charge a ridiculous premium for ones with more buttons.

    I’m glad you have something to help you.  I stand by my statement, though — you’re only as good as the tools you use.  No one said it’s “cheating,” But it does give you an unfair advantage over stands controller players.

    i wish they could detect these things and put everyone with fancy purchases in lobbies together and let us standard controllers play against each other.  But fairness and integrity doesn’t exist in gaming anymore, sooooo

    @MissTawnieeee @hayhor the above and the cz mentioned in the heading is the cheating I was referring to, jic there's mixed messages about legit extra paddles or buttons.

    I'm not sure I can cope with any extra buttons that I cannot see 😃

    @hbuttersmgee Exactly. This is like telling someone they shouldn't buy a different golf club or baseball bat because you can't (or won't) yourself.

    When push comes to shove, it's still a tool to give you an advantage.  There's just different levels of "help" that people legitimize because it doesn't seem AS wrong as others...but at the end of the day you're still buying things to make you play better/easier. 🤷‍♀️

    Wish they could detect these things to make fair lobbies -- you buy things to play better, you go against others who buy things to play better.  You play standard, you go against other standard players.  Pipe dream, especially since devs have no concern about the integrity of the game.

    Felt that! Yeah, I've been thinking along those lines also just put all similar players with the extra gadgets in the same lobby let original players play. lol Same for cheaters make a Cheat Code lobby.
