​Mouse & Keyboard Should AT LEAST Have The Ability To Play M&K Only.

Mouse & keyboard do not deserve to be aim assisted while they try to play by their own means. Respawn developers want everyone to play together, but that's simply not fair when aim assist is involved...

My discussion is about the "option" to play on mouse & keyboard only servers, and not directly about cross-play. That is if mouse & keyboard players choose to use it, still, it should be up to them being the PC ecosystem.

Also, it seems you might be misinformed about cross-play that features gameplay with PC and consoles together. There are games for both consoles and/ or PC players that don't offer aim assistance for the controller users.

1) Tom Clancy's Siege doesn't have any aim assistance while playing versus real players for both PC and consoles.

2) Player Unknown Battlegrounds doesn't have aim assist at all on consoles and/ or PC.

3) Overwatch disables aim assist for all controller users while in PC lobbies.

4) Valorant doesn't support controllers and/ or cross-play, but there are some high level players that play with controllers at high levels.

This debate about aim assist isn't actually about aim assist in my opinion.

I honestly think most controller players who say aim assist is fine have
A) Never used mouse & keyboard themselves
B) Make the argument that aim assist isn't that powerful because they purcahsed a expserive controller, and don't want that purchase to become useless.
C) Never have played in PC lobbies.

I've witnessed more people directly make false facts about this, just to meet their own narrative, why? This debate about aim assistance isn't the same as two direct arguments like someone saying, "Red Sucks, then someone else saying, 'Blue Sucks".

This is asking if mouse & keyboard players should get the option to play in mouse & keyboard only servers. I don't think most controller users understand what that means.

My discussion is totally about giving gamers a choice.

100% agree. I just feel like by that same standard console players should also have the option not to play in PC lobbies at all, regardless of input.

    Console already does have this option and PC players used to have this option back when Crossplay was introduced.. Like I really do not get console players (not talking about you) saying PC players are cry babies for wanting PC only lobbies just like console players already have as a option and yet at the same time they say MNK is far more superior yet they play in our lobbies and cry themselves when we want our own lobbies like console players do have.

      @ZeroGam3z I think players on either platform can play together but console type controllers are not compatible with mouse and keyboard and vice versa.

      The big problem for players is that games are not sold on gameplay these days. Games are merely an incentive to take part in a digital marketplace where you purchase in-game content such as skins and loot boxes.

      If gameplay was the crucial factor in purchasing a game, you can bet your bottom dollar more care would be taken over fairplay and gameplay.

      Because a game is free players shrug their shoulders at inequalities such as cheating, fairplay and loot boxes.

      If a game producer depended on the revenue from the price of a game to make money I think these problems would be adressed, as players would not spend money on a game if it had the sort of downsides that games have these days.

      Unfortunately big corporations own the means of producing games - the games development studios - and governments sit on their hands and do nothing about the loot boxes and microtransactions.

    ​Cross-play on consoles is strictly between other consoles if I'm correct.​ Consoles can connect to PC lobbies, but only if invited and/ or using that glitch that was about some time ago if I'm mistaken.

    Basically, if you queue up solo on console you wouldn't ever be in PC lobbies. You have to be invited by a PC player to play in PC lobbies.

      @Popa2caps Yes, true. I told you this before, hence why I say if it's such a problem why do pc players still invite their friends into pc lobbies? It's absurd. My reason for wanting it revolves around the complaint that aa is op from pc players. If we can have our own platform back this excludes us console players from the discussion, and hence the nerfs that will follow to keep the 5% happy that do cross play. One thing I've learnt with nerfs when it comes to Respawn is that they completely break whatever it is in the process. I want no part in this mess. I never asked to play with pc and never will, of course it's not fair - it's a dumb idea. How could it ever be fait to either party? Console can do their thing and the rest can do whatever like it did before this whole mess..
