What do you mean by “okay”?

Are you asking people whether they think it is morally acceptable?

I think absolutely yes.

It’s an input advantage in shooters over a controller, and you’re more likely to get matched vs controllers anyway.

Imagine you tuned into a quake tournament and 4 guys used controllers and 1 got to use a mouse and then you’ve pretty much answered your own question about fairness.

Ya, morraly right

#5

Is it really unfair if everyone has the ‘option’ to use a M&K, but they choose not to?

Sounds like a matter of personal preference/choice at that point?

Ya but the majority of the time you’ll be against people who opted into facing M&K. Or at least thats what I imagine.

#7

People don’t plug in kbm on R6 PS4 or buy expensive adapters because they assume everyone else would do so. It’s the opposite. They do it for the advantage because statistically most console users are going to use the consoles default controller. The 5% of matches where you fight others with adapters doesn’t make headshotting the other 95% using controllers fair. Playing field is uneven.

Yo, shouldnt you limit this poll to ps4 only, and also add in a I dont care or I’m indifferent option?

I don’t say that sarcastically either, cause I dont think it matters too much if they’re on console.

Its the other people who are placing a handicap on themselves. The person who buys a M&K combo just buys the best tool for the job! What If I decide to use a damaged controller and then demand everybody does it to keep it a even playing field? Its nonsense. Everybody has access to those tools, if someone refuses to use them, its on them.

Problem with M&K on console is that, at the moment, is game dependent. Even though the console supports it, game developers need to add support to it for each game.

I play with both M&K and controller. Some games are “better” with one or the other, but at the end is a matter of preference. I know a lot of great gamers who play FPS with a controller and I know a lot of great gamers who play fighting games with a Keyboard. It comes down to personal preference and what works FOR YOU.

I have no problem playing PHG with a controller and will still kick ass on it. What I cannot do is play a game at framerates from the 90’s

#11

Yea. What’s not morally right is how low fps gets on PS4. Couple that with how good M & K is and you get a whole lot of people not engaging in crossplay.

#12

You guys are still using your hands? How quaint.

While we’re at it, let’s get support for Guitar Hero controllers to be useable lol.

This is why games should have appropriate aim assist moving forward into the future. PHG has no detectable assist when adjusting sight over target. That is really unacceptable for any shooter game. PHG aim assist actually activates during strafing where is sticky to target, but it should be connected to aim not movement.

If games take holding to target out of the equation, they can be more about timing, positioning, and strategy, and choosing keyboard and mouse or controller won’t make much of difference.

Am I the only one who doesnt know what M&K is? ^^

#16

Mouse and Keyboard.

#17

Yes 😁

Mouse and keyboard as someone else said.

For the far majority cross play serves no purpose. It’s cool to play with friends but there is an advantage to m/k in PHG. As long as that’s the case, balancing between FT and Pred will be skewed by the difference.

How does this compare out of the box and with default settings on PS4 PHG? Anyone try it out?

Technically the way i play on PC, these keys are the only ones you need to have.

#19

Lol computers come with M&K ps4’s do not.

#20

Technically they don’t. We have to pay for them too. :)
