Sony update to PS5 broke peripherals
Although the news stories don’t say of it was intentional, I’m pleased to hear today that a recent PlayStation update prevents peripherals such as Cronus from working. Other games have taken steps to...

I don’t believe that the main reason devices like these are so popular is because so many people want to play MnK on console.
It’s a bit like in the past when people said they bought Playboy magazine just for reading the articles. 😏
I welcome the ban of these! One of the main reasons for me to go from PC to console at the time was the leveled playing field. A closed ecosystem giving hackers no chance, and everybody using mostly the same hardware. Unfortunately this has changed with the arrival of 3rd party and elite controllers, and it has gotten out of hand with cheating devices like Cronus. So if we can revert that a bit temporarily, hoorah!
As said before I’ve got no illusion that we got rid of it completely. The company selling these things will work to get their product working again.
@RanzigeRidder2 The Playboy reference is terrific 🤣. Realistically Dice should add legit M&K to 2042 for those console players that want to play that way.
@JOGAGATYA, your wording made it seem like I was glad that consoles were being restricted and PC was not, which is not my intent at all. I appreciate that may not have been what you meant, I want to stress that cheating of any kind, by any system, is not acceptable. We are all gamers who just want to play and none of us deserve to get railed by cheaters whether on PC or console.

Indeed Dice should add proper MnK support for their game too. Then there will be no more need for Cronus and the likes, but I doubt that many of its users will give up on it.

Doesn't matter which platform the cheater uses. What i said originally is that they got rid of some console cheaters and that is good news for both console and PC players because we all play against each other. It's a win for everyone and you seemed happy for this anti cheat win. I am happy too.
