Rapid Fire Controllers

[TheHitMan-1973]

I am massive fan of Call Of Duty series , i am thinking about modding my controllers for rapid fire , has any body else modded their controllers for rapid fire , is it worth it

 

[Kreeeee]

Just learn to play the game better rather than cheating.

You can get suspended or banned for it too, from what I've heard. Apparently a bunch of guys were done for it a while back when they were shooting their G3s like mad.

 

[Macky]

No. No, oh and no.

There was a major nelson pod cast a couple of months back where he stated you cant get banned for it and it doesnt break the TOC. However IMO its cheating. Cant see how you get any joy from it what so ever.

Post from another forum after googling it

Just listening to this weeks Major Nelsons podcast (yep, I'm geeking it up) one of his guests is the man who heads up the department that deals with all complaints made over Xbox LIVE. some very interesting insights into how they work. COD5 comes up a lot in the interview (un-surprisingly) aswell as the use of Rapid Fire controllers. Apparently the latter is not viewed as infringement by MS. Rapid Fire controller manufacturers have to seek special license from MS therefore they cannot be banned or outlawed ! It is left down to game developer on how to deal with this.....in otherwords no measures are taken to stop Rapid Fire Controller cheats.

Do you cheat in any of your other games, OP?

No cheating is not worth it.

What's the point of playing the game.

Well I don't really see how a rapid fire pad would help in this type of game. Surely analogue stick movement prevails? I know there is a certain amount of auto aim, but you can't literally stick LT and RT on rapid alternation ad kill everyone surely? You need to be looking in the general vicinity of their location, right?

Its not a massive help and certainly wont make a bad player dominate. But its a small cheat that turns semi auto weapons in to full auto weapons. Its all degrees really but its still cheating which will take away satisfaction from playing.

there's not really any point in using a rapid fire controller, i used to use one for the FAL but with that gun you kill people in 2/3 shots anyway most of the time. i can fire it at nearly the same speed as my controller used to so i gave up on it. you'll run out of ammo quite fast if you use one.

I use a rapid fire controller last night for hour or so , i would not say it makes you a better player , yes i got 25 + kills but i was getting that with a normal controller which was not modded . So after using a rapid fire controller u can still get picked off by other players within the game with ease .

I hate being the host because it gives me an unfair advantage. I suppose everyone plays online games for different reasons :S

 

[ONESHOTKILL]

i am normaly pretty fast with the trigger fingers,and have been told i am using a rapid fire,but its prob just i dont work much and most of the day i spend typing or excercising my wrist.

but its hard to keep the sticks steady when your are rapidly smashing the triggers in hope that your pistol gets off enough shots to kill someone

holding it down is obviously much much easier


if its not cheating and has no advantage then why would op want it?

 

[TheHitMan-1973]

I modded both my controllers with rapid fire mod kit , to tell you the truth it does not give you any edge only wasting you ammo in a faster time , i am still finding if your quick you should not need rapid fire modded controllers .

even without rapid fire i am still getting the same about of kills ie 18 +

You only notice rapid fire on certain weapons + sniper rifles , hand guns are a waste of time ! ! !

Famas
Fal
M16
AK-47

Not worth it

well you could say when your not host your at a disadvantage and the other player is at an advantage.

unless they buy servers to become hosts, but this is a great expense which they can live without.

...after reading this thread, i think i don't understand what rapid fire is...

So you need to use BOTH triggers if you have rapid fire attached onto your gun?

It just rapidly activates the button for you. SO if you hold down right trigger either aiming down the sights or from the hip if will rapid fire. Used basically on single shot weapons like the FAL.

It basicly tells the game you are pressing the button stupidly fast while only holding down the button.

Agree , you cant tell the difference using some assault rifles
