As the title says, Blizzard really need to do something about Smurfs and people using a Mouse and Keyboard its getting ridiculous at this point. and yes you can tell if someone is using a mouse and keyboard because even someone thats been playing this game for a long time (I.E Gold boarders and up) don’t even has consistent aim compared to a 2 stared bronze boarder that you can clearly tell has far superior aim over anyone else. Add a reporting feature for mouse and keyboard abusers to make them scared to use it and take action against it because in my opinion its flat out cheating, you yourselves can go and check to see how unfair of an advantage us using a controller are. also Smurfs are a huge problem for console I believe Blizzard have said there hands are tied about that but at least talk with Sony and I’d say Microsoft to about these issues. Console players matter to not just the PC side of the game. These issues are ruining the Console Community and making others including myself alot less interested in the game…
While i’m at it the voice chat is still fked for us over on PS4 since the summer games patch, If that was PC it would of been fixed in a day but no because were Console it doesn’t matter as much, fking pathetic. I don’t know if Xbox is having the same issue but if they are and I assume they are then please for the love of Overwatch do something about this s#!t.
Thank you for listening to my huge rant and I appreciate those who play Console Overwatch the way it was meant to be played. Those who use a M&K go fk yourself and play on PC you trash cts

I agree with you and all, but seems that Blizzard really don’t care about overwatch console…
There are still many problems and they don’t care to Fix them sadly
Said this before and will say it - the devices that allow mouse/keyboard are just mimckiing the pad.
They cannot do anything special, they cannot move or aim any different than a controller.
In-fact, they’re at a disadvantage in most aspects due to the big input delay they experience.
As for the smurfs, yes, something needs to be about it honestly.
I believe on Xbox you’ve gotta purchase Xbox live again on a new account, but on PS4 I can imagine it being a big issue.

Um no Luke, there’s a converter that actually allows you to use an actual mouse and keyboard to function just as well as it would on PC, therefore providing you with a much more accurate aim, quick reaction time, quicker/more accurate tracking, and much more mobility period, than it would with a controller. Controller users are at a HUGE disadvantage when going up against anyone using a mouse and keyboard.
There is nothing they can do about smurfs, consoles are literally made to be shared by families and friends, sometimes even apartment buildings. It’s not up to them, it’s up to Sony and MS to make the rules.
The same goes for keyboard and mouse, I don’t like it either but Sony even sells it’s own adapters and once again it’s up to Sony and MS to make the rules.
Microsoft and Sony both have ways to detect adapters, companies have to register their console accessories with both companies to license them, and as so, the console can detect what is being connected into it. Microsoft published tools to detect Mkb adapters over a year ago and multiple games including Fornite have banned their use. Blizzard could easily ban their use on console.
Only on XBox though, Sony have not released such tools but they might if enough people ask them to.
I use mouse and keyboard and can confirm it’s not the game changer you think it is
Wrong. The best one is the Apex and the delay is 1, 0.8, 0.4 or 0.2 seconds depending on your circumstances, there is no device that provides no input delay. Do your research.
It doesn’t immediately give everyone godlike aim, but it does let you use max sensitivity and still be capable of fine adjustments better than controller.
Console gaming has a gamesense element that PC gaming doesn’t: not being able to turn around. This makes flanking more powerful on console, but players not having the same drawback as everyone else changes a lot in how you have to approach engagements.
If someone is throwing or leaves the game, they are pretty much always a smurf. And most games on PS4 have a least 2 smurfs on each team. We just have to hope the smurfs on our team aren’t in a temper tantrum.
