This is unfortunately why I switch to console exclusively for gaming. I personally prefer a powerful PC especially with keyboard and mouse, but it’s just so much harder to cheat on a console nowadays, and I don’t want to install this stuff.
- plopz 7y agoYou don't even need to cheat on consoles, most games come built in with it, I think they call it aim assist. Or you can just use a keyboard and mouse and suddenly your better than all the controller users.
- recursive 7y ago"Cheating" in video games is generally understood to mean using a technical means to gain an advantage not intended by the developers. So it's not that.
- plopz 7y agoThe console players I know seem to consider mouse and keyboard cheating.
- floatingatoll 7y agoAim assist doesn't let you violate the in-game mechanic rules to generate impossible events over the wire to other players. Most PC games are vulnerable to this. Most console games aren't. Its quite refreshing that the worst cheating I've seen in 5 years has been artificially-induced network lag.
- hiccuphippo 7y agoConsole games have a low-tech cheating mechanism known as a Lag Switch, basically a switch that will disconnect the cheater for ~3 seconds. Here's one around the 1:35 mark and he tests it at around 4:00 https://youtu.be/iXUmhGruPRo https://youtu.be/iXUmhGruPRo
