He's probably talking about the obvious cheat of using the better keyboard and mouse, but still getting the controller aim advantage, by tricking the system into thinking you were using a controller.
As someone that has a XIM4 for my PS3 & PS4, I can tell you that I have to disable aim assist on all games because it interfers with my ability to aim and end up missing shots because autoaim tries to drag my aim away from one target to another close by. Autoaim just isn't that usable with mouse and keyboard.
I feel like I need to just add this tidbit here, that I wouldn't go into competitive multiplayer with autoaim to get an unfair advantage anyway, but certainly been interesting to play around with settings to see how they practically work. The main reason why I play with keyboard and mouse is because my giant hands cramp on controllers very easily and I find them most often very awkward to control anything but driving games.
The thing is, the difference between the KB and mouse compared to a controller is so great that no amount of skill makes it a fair competition.
The Matchmaking system makes it a fair competition. People who are capable get matched up with people just as capable. While people who aren't so capable, get matched up with people who aren't so capable.
Take one of the leading players, give them a console controller then let a mediocre player use a KB and Mouse, there is no doubt who will win.
We know it would be the leading PC player, as it can be seen by the world's top Overwatch console player who happens to be a PC player that plays on controller on console (and streams it).
You need to stop pretending that a console controller is in any way comparable to the KB and mouse.
It's comparable enough that the multi-platform community is aware that bronze K/B players on PC is bronze on console despite using tools like the XIM4. Same with Platnium, Diamond and Master (silver and gold doesn't quite work that way due to what people believe to be 'elohell' based on the ranking system Overwatch uses for competitive). How would you explain these results?
Well, duh? For example, there are performance differences between the default hardware that comes with the PS3, PS3 Slim, PS3 Superslim, PS4, PS4 Pro and there are games that are crossplatform between all five.
Once you make KB/M input relatively easy to use, then you have to assume that everyone who wants to play competitively will be using them, and that anyone who wants to use a controller is going to be frustrated by how badly they are losing.
But in games like Overwatch, it places you with people of similar skill level which is determined by how well you win against other people... So, if it's true that keyboard and mouse are vastly superior and turn people into super soldiers, then they wouldn't be playing with console players unless they were just as adept and could handle themselves, no?
It is the compromise you make because you want to play on a couch.
I have a cheap lap-resting platform where I have my keyboard and mouse for playing FPSes on the couch using my console with my XIM4. No compromise needed.
Your unwillingness to use different tools for different jobs is no reason to water down the experience for others, which this would do. If you make the PC version of the game easier to play with a controller, it'd be about a week before the scene is dominated by mouse and keyboard players using scripts or some other nonsense that makes their input look like a controller.
What are you talking about...? The PC version already has aim assist for controllers...
- Being able to have phone-in numbers in multiple countries. - No world subscription where I can call landlines and some mobiles at no additional cost. - Requirement of existing mobile number - No real desktop app that is relatively lightweight (having to install Chrome and running four executables in the background doesn't count, Skype only uses 59MB RAM on my Windows machine right now. - I have frequent problems with presence information when using it, people offline when they're online etc. - No real messenger API (although Skype are working on killing that:/), there is a Hangouts API, but that's just for extending the GUI rather than having API control over doing calls, messages etc. - The Android app doesn't let me call numbers and expects me to call on my mobile plan instead. - It comes from a company that has a history of shutting down products unexpectedly with inadequate replacements, if any.
Back when Second Life was the great new thing, several companies announced that they were bringing out competing software (I recall Sony was one of the competitor wannabes).
True.
The competitors were all going to have one difference: Professional looking pre-made objects like clothing and furniture, rather than the community made stuff in Second Life.
False, Second life had professionally made objects too and that wasn't the main difference.
Sony introduced Playstation Home, which didn't allow user generated content.
Blue Mars was introduced which didn't allow user generated content (you had to have a special content creator account that vetted all your work), but only with tools outside of the platform.
There were a bunch of others that pretty much replicated similar crap to above.
Second life allowed user content creation and the ability to collaborate in constructing that content within the system while allowing players to exchange money for services and products in-world between each other.
But, EVERY TIME I tried to jump into SecondLife to create some stuff or wander around, I was blown away by how backwards and complicated the UI felt to use
As opposed to Maya, Blender, 3d studio max? Is this a troll?
and how difficult it was to create 3D content in SL compared to my normal 3D software - even with the mesh system.
The mesh system is litterally uploading meshes from your 3D software, there is no more 3D to create at that point... So this point doesn't even make sense.
The look of even the most visually advanced worlds felt like it was designed for systems 15 years ago.
It's a shame you don't elaborate on that, because it's vague enough that I can't even determine if you're telling truths or not.

XIM4 compensates for that, it's a very smart device but requires custom profiles for each game which are provided by the vendor.
Well, duh? For example, there are performance differences between the default hardware that comes with the PS3, PS3 Slim, PS3 Superslim, PS4, PS4 Pro and there are games that are crossplatform between all five.
But, it isn't. Because Overwatch places capable players with just as capable players. Not unlike other titles like Titanfall etc.
The games are already match making people who are are capable to each other, which makes this argument completely ridiculous.
Since 1 isn't true, this doesn't happen.
Since 2 isn't true, this isn't relevant to the matter either.

Testing on my xim4 has shown that it isn't.
What are you talking about...? The PC version already has aim assist for controllers...
My xim4 requires the connection of a real Playstation controller in order to operate. Hence, no issue.
For me, off the top of my head:
- Being able to have phone-in numbers in multiple countries. :/), there is a Hangouts API, but that's just for extending the GUI rather than having API control over doing calls, messages etc.
- No world subscription where I can call landlines and some mobiles at no additional cost.
- Requirement of existing mobile number
- No real desktop app that is relatively lightweight (having to install Chrome and running four executables in the background doesn't count, Skype only uses 59MB RAM on my Windows machine right now.
- I have frequent problems with presence information when using it, people offline when they're online etc.

- It comes from a company that has a history of shutting down products unexpectedly with inadequate replacements, if any.
I've worked with people fresh out of Queen's University (in Belfast) were machine learning experts (but missing a lot of day-to-day business skills).
Then use the marketplace website instead. Your problem is now solved.
Minecraft isn't even a MMO, kinda hard to compare to the two for that reason alone.
I don't have your experiences on Second life, nor do I fit into your story's norms.
False, it was like the seventh incarnation of such a thing.
Second life's support for very in-deph user generated content is still not really provided anywhere else but Second life-based software.
True.
False, Second life had professionally made objects too and that wasn't the main difference.
