My controller is my weapon. Customizing it for myself to shoot you better is my prerogative.
That being said I use the Frag Fx Shark and it is the best thing I could have bought. Half controller, half mouse.
If you can't worry about customizing your game experience then blame yourself.
I suppose next ppl will complain about people using the particular mouse they choose to use.
The problem is, that your life isn't depending on winning a console game, whereas real life combat situations tend to be life threatening. To make a lame real world - gaming analogy in response, bringing a monster truck to a horse race will most certainly end in your disqualification (Even though last time i checked there was no explicit rule that said "thy should not run over thy enemies' horses in backstage using your monster truck to eliminate the competition"). Games are more (or at least should be more) related to sports than real life combat (you know the term e-sport? doesn't come from nowhere), it makes sense to get a common ground for the participants. Personally i couldn't care less if you add silicon grips so that the controller feels better in your hand, be my guest and do that to your hearts content (that could be considered "in-line with rules" as they don't directly interfere with the input you make to the game). But if someone uses rapid fire mods to artificially increase his/her firing speed to a level they wouldn't be able to reach with their own skills. . . i think you get the gist.
You yourself said, that you used to be terrible in the game and that you now can kick ass just fine. Sorry to tell you, but in the real world (yay another ******** game-real world analogy coming in) you can't use a motorbike, just because you suck at the 100m Dash. Deal with your own shortcomings and either change the sport (Tabletennis for example) or just get better at running.
And yes. If said mouse comes with rapidfire, then we will complain about people using said mouse, and rightfully so. |
