Ubisoft sees ‘major reduction’ in Rainbow Six Siege cheaters thanks to XIM detection (www.theverge.com)

For the uninitiated: XIM is a tool used to play console shooters with a mouse and keyboard and fake them as controllers, essentially giving them an unfair advantage in competitive shooters on console.

Ubisoft implemented a super effective way to counter XIM called "Mousetrap" a while ago. It slowly adds more and more input delay if you're playing with a XIM and tons of people have been sharing clips of players clearly trying to use it and having a 200ms+ delay in their actions and playing like they're drunk. It's quite funny.

I don't particularly like your tone. You can make the argument that controller or stick is based on preference, but the truth is there's a clear bias towards one over the other. And what you described with the hit box is literally cheating. Capcom as you said haven't banned the official products, and thus my point still stands. Plus it seems you've conveniently forgotten that crossplay exists.

Like I said, I could care less if they ban MKB on console, but they may as well do it on PC too if it's considered cheating.

Lmao, i would like to see that clear bias, i would recommend you to read my comment again and both the articles and tweets i linked because i think you are completely missing the point of the whole argument

Agree to disagree I suppose.

Lol, maybe it would have been a good moment to go back, read the conversation from the first post and see why you started trying to pass your made up arguments as facts and saying to people how their "inexperience shows" when you were just making up stuff. But sure haha, agree to disagree.

How proudly you say that my arguments are made up. It's very clear that you won't change your bigoted view. Enjoy being my first blocked user :D
