You know it's not really competition when you give yourself a massive advantage, right?

You know that you're a grownup cheating to beat children, right?

You know that's sadder than playing a fair game and losing, right?

Right?

    You know that what I'm doing is not only allowed by the CoD Mobile developers, but they even made an official emulator for this very purpose? Google "Gameloop".

    Regardless, I play games to have fun; so knock it off with the guilt tripping. The players know that I'm using a mouse and keyboard. They don't know how old I am because in-game mic usage is rare these days. I'm playing within the rules. Not my fault that they're using the touchscreen or plugged in a controller instead of a mouse.

    If it bothers you so much, then just stick to ranked and you'll only get matched with other mouse and keyboard players. But again, I don't give a fuck because I'm having fun again, just like I used to when I was young. Mobile gaming in an emulator rekindled my interest in gaming overall.

    Gonna have to disagree on this. Input parity is a big issue for multiplayer games.

    Look at Apex, roller players complain about m&k being able to do certain movement tech, m&k players complain about the ridiculous aim assist on roller. People sometimes cheat by using the roller to have aim assist, while using macros to achieve certain movement tech.

    Touchscreen vs m&k isnt even close to roller vs m&k. It's really only fun for the person who has that advantage at that point. You essentially make it so that you get to have fun while everyone else doesn't. Sure, it might allowed by the devs, doesn't make it any less fun to play against.

    To your point on ranked, not everyone wants to play that. Sometimes they just want to turn on their phone for a quick match.

    Controller has gotten a lot better. I have friends on console that come play on PC with their controllers and destroy every lobby. There are people who play in FPs tournaments with controllers. With gyro aiming you can do anything a mouse player can do.
