I hate that this is still a thing. Console Oni's are at a massive disadvantage cus of this

The cap for console should just be unlocked, instead of making the killer less fun for PC players

it's a feature

It's not a feature, dev Peanits himself once said that his power has a 90 degree limit.

it is definitely not a feature, thats like saying discord calls w/ ur swf is a feature. Its a bug or its not vinilla dbd, similiar to dpi enhancements on mouse and keyboard as well, its technically a competitive advantage, therefore, cheating.
Discord calls aren't smth they can do anything abt, which is why they should just have an in game vc.

This has been around for a long time I even submitted one about this a while back. Most Oni I see use this exploit. Kinda like the blight hug exploit. also easier if you have high sensitivity on your mouse

U mean less fun for console players?

I have made 2 discussions on this in the past. I have always said "In a nutshell" either make it so console can do 180 flicks to OR cap pc just like console.
Its not fair that one side should be able to do this tactic and the other cannot.

This has nothing to do with looking up

i think it wirks both ways. With a dpi enhancement (cheats) or the look up exploit

DPI being a cheat is crazy mental gymnastics looking up just helps avoid collision

Looking up is just a placebo. I can do a perfect 180° with 2000 DPI and 0% in-game mouse sensitivity. 2000 DPI is also not a cheat. However, using scripts to amplify to reach an extremely high DPI, like 100,000, as with helicopter Blight, is, in my opinion, cheating. 2000 DPI, on the other hand, is a fairly standard setting nowadays.
Additionally, it's much easier to flick at lower FPS. Back when I played on 60 FPS, I was able to get away with 800 DPI and a higher in-game sensitivity.
In my opinion, BHVR should adjust the game so that console players can achieve 180° flicks with higher controller sensitivity. Otherwise, Oni feels borderline unplayable against skilled survivors.

And so we have to break the knees of all non-console players because PCs are a little better at playing Oni. But with exactly the same logic (at the same time swf gets many times more bonuses) we shouldn’t do anything with swf? This is hypocrisy, we either solve both problems or we don’t hypocrisy choose something one

Dpi enhancing is in fact cheating. Its not a vanilla dbd setting and requires a specific device to perform.

Its not "a little better" its a big advantage actually that neither platforms should be able to do. Swfs do have their issues which lots of balance changes seem obvious, but the devs don't care to make things fair. I agree both problems need to be resolved, no matter how rare Oni's are in game anyway. Also I'm no hypocrite, and i don't main survivor either

First and foremost, a mouse operates with DPI. Without a set DPI, you cannot use the device, which is also the native input device for PC - the first platform the game released on by the way.
Second, what DPI is acceptable to you? If I recall correctly, my mouse came with a default DPI of 3200, so I had to lower it because it was too fast for me in DBD.
As for the part about a 'specific device,' that must be a joke. By that logic, the same could be said about your monitor or TV regarding brightness settings. What would be an acceptable baseline for that? Would enhancing the brightness also be considered cheating then?

at this point they really should just find a way to do this without somehow making MnK Oni able to do 360s/720s/1080s/whatever. in general they really, really need to look at legacy/QoL stuff in the game rather than pumping out new content and caring about balance all the time.
but that's just beating a dead maurice these days.

Im pr sure mouse/track pad sensitivity has a cap. And i and many others have definitely seen that bypassed before.
"Acceptable" dpi is whatever your pc's vanilla untouched specs have as their cap. Which on all pc's im pretty sure is the same, so everyone can move their cursor at a comfortable pace.
A specific device is required to perform such exploits. Meaning not everyone can do it, meaning it's not fair for others. Sure you can buy a pc to gain a competitive advantage in a video game, but you run the risk of getting in trouble in accordance to some TOS or game rules.
For the record, TV's & Monitors all possess (or should) be capable of the same lumen cap. Theres no disadvantage there, the size of the screen comes down to personal preference, AND its outside of BHVR's control. Therefore, not cheating

You heard it here folks, having a sensitive mouse is cheating now.

Its only cheating with the use of third-party enhancers to surpass the cap. Maybe read next time
