Mouse and keyboard on console needs to be bannable

Its cheating. The definition of cheating is an “act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination.” using a mouse and key board puts you at a higher advantage due to being able to react faster than any person on controller.

If this isnt a bannable offence for cheating on console, the overwatch team needs to reevaluate their decisions.

If i send a report it should send a clip or something.

he said not to report them yet, as it clogs up the reporting system.

im thinking about doing it because that is the only way to make it fair. then stop once they can do something about it. but if it takes as long to ban the km as it has been for them to fix matchmaking. its never going to happen

Didn’t microsoft try doing something so people could play M&K on xbox?

Dont report the cheaters…because it clogs up the system.

they can’t exactly do anything about it, because they have no proof of a mouse and keyboard.

honestly they dont even care about smurfs. i doubt they will do anything about km

3 months/14 months later…
^Depends on how you look at it.

There is actually a feature for other FPS console games that detect KB&M usage. Blizzard is just lazy and hates console players, and they don’t wanna admit it.
