Yeah, there is a video out there, of some dude showing how fucking uneven the playing field is using a mouse and keyboard with McCree. He was just wrecking shit. Ill never ever blame a company for wanting to have their game on an even playing field. Its basically a cheat imo. Its using 3rd party software and hardware in order to get the upperhand. Its no different imo, then using an aimbot. Cheating is still cheating.

PS4 supports mouse and keyboard so it's up to Blizz to allow for it. Calling on Sony to put in support is stupid.

Until there's a console-wide launch for KB/M support (which would make them basically MUST HAVE accessories for those who care to FPS well), KB/M is basically exploiting. Not quite cheating, but it's shady and will forever be a * on the souls of those who use it.
It is funny though when people are inherently good at console shooters completely destroy KB/M people who thought that was the only thing holding them back from being good. No, Cody, you're just bad at games.

Yeah my roommate has a xim4 for cod on console, just because he likes it as a stress reliever to absolutely shit on people.
One free weekend on console, I tried it, granted I was level one with other level ones. Add my current knowledge, and it was like going to a playground of children batting heads like I was the sultan of swat.
It was baddd. My friend who is a console pleb even asking me if I was hacking. I never had more than 5 deaths, I was always 50+ kills, even had a game with 126 elims.
I can see why they're concerned, but how do you pick up a third party program that literally maps keyboard and mouse to your controller.. I'm sure there are more specifics but at the basis, that's all it is.

I goof'd on PTR a bit. Working on a Reinhardt sumo game mode. Charge one shots and hammer two shots. Movement speed upped 25% too, to dodge charges. Control maps only. Reinhardt only. I only got to test it a bit against others, but it was pretty fun. I'm thinking about letting people have a super powerful Firestrike every 60 seconds or something, but there's no way to tune individual skills damage right now, just enabling them and tuning their cooldown.
Overall custom servers seems pretty cool.

Sure, but only a Blizzard would throw its weight around to lobby console manufacturers to "disallow mouse and keyboard and input conversion devices" in scorched-earth fashion.
Because what possible use would anyone have for a keyboard and mouse on console other than to "cheat" at Blizzard games, huh.

I have a feeling all these custom server/games will be dead in a week or two after the patch is released for that very reason. Seems very gimmicky to me.

I think with the fact you can get xp, custom servers will do relatively well. Esp if they keep expanding on them.
I think it'll be pretty sweet if they some how either capitalize on popular ones by introducing them to arcade rotation or making that a random server finder, though the latter is probably a bad idea.
I'm just hoping after this gets fleshed out more, we will see a map editor.

Reminds me of Tribes. 1. There were always some 'Hyper Mod' servers with basically unlimited jets and full automatic everything, but they were a total clusterfuck that no one ever ended up playing. There were some really fun/subtle mods that were excellent and had a huge fan-base, but the ones where they just remove all the breakers usually end up flopping.

I've mentioned it before in this thread, sorry if I'm sounding like a broken record, we need the ability to select the game mode we wish to play like in WoW PVP.
Let me select a set of maps from the list I wish to play or specific game formats. Let me queue for KOTH and Payload maps if I want.
When playing Unreal Tournament id pick a specific map at times and just play that one for a few hours. Sometimes when playing Overwatch I'd like to spend an hour or two in Eichenwald and not get shuttled off to fucking Hanamura....ever. I don't need to play Hanamura or Volskaya for at least 6 months please.

Hop on the PTR this exact feature is already coming. It isn't a queue since that would make zero sense but you get a customs browser similar to older FPS games.

Unsure. I made a custom server and I think as long as there are people in it, it stays up. There's probably a timer for empty servers before they go down. Each server also shows you the ping for that server which means they must be based off geo server locations as I am Midwest and almost all the servers were green except a few which I suspect are Westcoast hosts.

I'm pretty surprised you can get xp from the custom games. I bet they end up nerfing the exp gains from those servers because someone will figure out the certain combination of a match for max exp gain.
