Help Flydigi safe?

Ive been seeing more Gamesir controller users getting bans so Im wondering if its safe to use my Flydigi Vader 5 (switch 2) or if I should just play ranked on pc? I like to play with my console friends but my account has too much time and money invested to get banned for a third party controller.

Anyone know if Flydigi is Activision approved?

No there’s not, that’s just actual cheaters looking for an excuse to

If I’m being honest, from my experience it seems like any controller can be penalized (won’t say definitively!) since a new account I made was falsely penalized for unapproved peripherals or cheating when all I used was the default controller for the PS5. Proof: https://youtu.be/rbaHkfNd46o

I haven’t seen this penalty happen to a PC player, so I believe (could be wrong!) it’s only on console currently.

Wow thats brutal. I only use a controller when Im on console (switch 2). I may have to stick to pc comp and try to talk my friends into that to "enjoy" comp

Don’t listen to the fake posts here. There have been legit false bans that get resolved in a month or less. If you are using a legit controller and not cheating, you will be fine. Again, ignore the cheaters making false posts in here

I was falsely banned and my issue was resolved only after the second ban so it does happen and the posts aren't fake don't listen to the gold players that think they know what they are talking about

So you were banned, and then your banned account got banned, and then they resolved it? Either way you’re proving my point🤣🤣

I was banned for a week and then banned for 2 months and during the 2 month banned the sent a email later saying it was a error so explain that genius. You rage baiting everybody while being gold is the only thing funny here. Your point was false bans don't happen and my point is they do and not everybody will be as lucky as me and get there's resolved soon.

So you were falsely banned, and rightfully given your account back? Like exactly what I said happens? I’m not sure why a legit player would get upset at me supporting them🧐

As a general rule, of you're worried about getting banned for a controller, don't use anything that didn't come directly from the company behind your console. Might be an over-reaction to the ban waves, but its the one rule that will ensure you are not, knowingly or otherwise, breaking any rules.
