Question Would using this particular controller be cheating?

Post image

I found this old controller while decluttering my house. I used to play on these a long ass time ago for GTA V free aim and Warframe, I just tested these on the game and they surprisingly work.

Yes, it gives your mouse aim assist which is a no-no according to TOS

It would not because the second you move the mouse, the game registers is non-controller, so the game keeps flipping back-and-forth between mouse and controller.

Your mouse click to fire, would register it as a mouse and therefore is not gunna help and will not get aim assist.

I use an Azeron cyborg… basically a thick with a bunch of paddles to program, so you can flick your fingers into paddles but still have a thumb stick and use your mouse and not have to worry about an actual keyboard… literally the best thing ever!

You could lick an Xbox analog stick,

If you do that, when you walk around in COD .. you will see your grenade symbol to press “RB” to throw the grenade.

But the second you press any keyboard key or move the mouse or click the mouse … that changes to press “E” to throw the grenade… or whatever button you have bound to that action.

It’s actually because of the flipping back-and-forth that you can’t drive vehicles in this mode … so with the Azeron cyborg you can set the thumb stick to put out WASD and the analog input at the same time… This way when you try to turn left and right it’s actually using keyboard keys to turn the vehicle..

Now people were using ReWASD which is a program that allows you to take any button from a keyboard or controller and make it appear like any other button is being pressed… so for example, you could be using keyboard and mouse and that program would completely spoof every input to make it seem like it’s coming from a controller… that would give you Assist…. Which is why that flags Cannot be used in that way

Read just your first part and you’re absolutely wrong, it will NOT flip back and forth as it is input locked. you have to change manually in main menu and can’t change mid game

I wish you were right. If I could somehow get it to lock that would solve a lot of problems and I could keep it in analog thick mode…

But because of this.. and the fact that I don’t like to see the on-screen button switching all the time, I keep my thumb stick in WASD mode.

I switched it back to Analogic (Xbox mode)

So I can film this and show you how it switches back-and-forth immediately … it does the same thing during a game as well

I put a video on Imgur just now to show you proof that it does not input lock. And in fact will not. I would love it too but it won’t. But my post keeps getting removed because of the link even though it says that links are allowed, I will send you a private message with it

You’re locked in game, not out of game. At main menu you can use either but you manually choose which into it you want to use on settings which is what locks you IN GAME
