ShadowLady, Would that not be just like lowering your video settings to improve frame rates which will increase responce time amoungest a few other things. Personaly I feel anything you can do to improve your gameing skills is a plus other than hacking/modding. Also that was kind of creative on there part to think of that and must not be that easy to do, now I would suppose that they have to use other keys to swap weapons or whatever the scrol wheel was use for before. I have a friend that did that in Crysis a while ago but changed it back to defaults. He found it to difficult to use that way. I have also tried that as well but I did not like it either. In order to make things on a perfect playing field we would all have to have the same computer, none faster than the other and with all the same ping time. You know as well as I do that could never happen. We all do the very best we can do with what we have available to us. Wasn't someone complaining about bunny hopping in the past? Sorry to disagree but its just my opinion!

I'm with Shadow, I don't really like it...BUT it isn't causing a major long term problem right now. IF 3 or 4 peeps were constantly firing barret's at full auto all the time and owning the maps, I would start to scream bloody murder that we as a clan should make it against our policy to use. Right now, it's just the occasional goob that comes in for a few maps and shoots up the place with a barret or his pistol (makes pistol usage very deadly too in CQB's).

THIS TYPE OFF STUFF HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT AND IT IS NO SECRET WHEEL BINDING. IT USUALLY WON'T GIVE SOMEONE ENOUGH OF AN ADVANTAGE TO BE CONSIDERED CHEATING BUT IT IS BAD SPORTSMANSHIP. AS FAR AS GAME SETTINGS WITHIN A PLAYERS PC AS LONG AS YOUR WITHIN PUNKBUSTERS STANDERDS FOR EACH GAME IF PEOPLE KNOW WAYS TO MAKE THE GAME EASIER TO PLAY WE TEND TO SHARE THEM WITH EACH OTHER.. I KNOW THAT IT GETS OLD WHEN SOMEONE COMES IN AND DOES THAT BUT WE DO ADVERTISE FOR IDIOTS AND DO IT WELL...BTW THANKS FOR ASKING ABOUT THIS AND SOMEONE MAY COME ALONG AND SAY IT IS NOT ALLOWED BUT I DON'T RECALL IT RIGHT NOW LOL

It's hard to call something that everyone can do if they want to cheating.

I've tried the wheel bind with a G3 and I didn't like it, it seemed to lower accuracy so I quit using it.

I thought you could set up punkbuster to boot for scroll firing, least it used to be that way.

It's not modifying the game's programming to your advantage.

Personally I don't see it as a cheat as I can still kill that enemy ---if he gets me he gets me , yes its annoying and yes it can be blocked in punkbuster last I checked if one chooses to do so for there servers ---as an experienced fps player I will always do my best to adjust to what I am up against

i hate it tbh, as peoples g3s fire faster than my machine guns, unless i put on doubletap, and they are classed as a rifle which packs more punch in the ftag servers, so a scrolled g3 will always be the most potent weapon :(.

thats why 70% of people seem to use them in ftag

I agree with Shadowlady i think the weapons should be used how they were intended or meant to be in real life.

I agree that this is not cheating for the simple reason anyone can do this and its not giving the user an unfair advantage because everyone could if they wanted to.

i'm with shadow...thumbs down. Its cool that you can change your settings to increase performance, granted. A fact of which doesnt help me in the least because i'm so bad. I know i have spec'd some promod players that are hell on wheels with a sniper rifle, pulling up scope while running, firing one shot at about 50yds. and kicking ass all over. I think i would rather try to increase my skills from actually working at it for the sake of bragging rights and dogging out my victim, which means lots of hours...marriage suffers, work suffers, sleep suffers and so on. Oh, and did i mention that i have tried it to see how it felt on my g3, turns out i was worse with it than without. Why do i even bother to try? I came in with a target on my back and head. Now if i could change that in console, that would be worth doing.

Well I have read all of what you have said and I see that its just a way that one player has learned to play the game better for him. As far as a cheat or a glitch it is not because the game allows you to do it. Yes in the perfect world it would fire like a gun should but this is only a game. So go out and just kill the peep.

if you need to use all the so called perks to be a better player, then maybe you need to do 1 of 2 things

GET A KICK ASS PC AND STOP USING DIAL UP LMAO

Only console gamers play on an equal level,pc gamers play at all different levels due to the hardware they are running.Having a gaming mouse is just one of those extra pieces of hardware,at the end of the day if it is spoiling the game for everyone then we need to act on this,so if a majority do not have an issue with it then it remains.

Personally I dont't give a shit I play for fun and don't care who wins.

i personly think this matter falls in the subject of a persons individual playing style which is what we support on all the servers here at XI everyone has a different way of settin there keys and game settings so it may work for some but doesnt for others so i think its ok in my opinion

I enjoy playing with Shawdow despite the rusty linoleum knife she keeps deballing me with. But how is the game "spoiled" by taking advantage of technology - which all of us do to various extent? Some have faster systems, better vid cards, larger monitors with better display, faster broadband, different keyboard/mouse assignments to improve personal gameplay, etc. and etc. For instance, I have a physical deficiency due to a stroke which leaves me unable to play using a mouse. And so I use a trackball/joystick combination (visit here and click on video: http://assassi.ning.com) and if I win a map, great. If I don't, great. I play for enjoyment; it's not my personal objective to always be top gun.

Bottom line, there are to many variables to improve one's ability to compete and anything you do within the technological limits of PC gaming - other than software cheats - should not be at issue in our clan. What an unholy mess if we began to enforce rules on keyboard/mouse binds - where does that lead? If someone's shooting too fast for your liking with a particular gun because they have bound fire to a scroll wheel, you're free to do the same.

Nice discussion. And SCooBY, PLEASE show us the full image of that incredible body...
