Pc players in console mixtape lobbies

So I’ve been having an issue lately where in mixtape I keep getting put into like a half split pc lobby and of course the pc players dominate. So I’m just wondering why this keeps on happening? I would submit a picture or a video but it won’t let me so yeah.

  • @E9ine_AC I'm wondering if Battle Royale will have this terrible issue or if it's isolated to the Mixtape?

    Well, if crossplay is so good they should put them in BR too, especially in ranked. BR was already unplayable, so why destroy Mixtape, in more ways than just adding cheating PC kids btw, which was the only fun in this game? I have never seen a developer so giddy on killing their own game. They must get a golden handshake or something if they run it into the ground.

  • Why are PC players and console players STILL in the same lobbies in mixtape? I play solo sometimes so it should be console only, right? Yes, controller players have aim assist but that doesn't mean much when that's the only advantage console players could have while getting beamed from a distance from mouse input. I should also mention that console players are STILL locked at 60 FPS (next gen update when?). This is super unbalanced. Respawn/EA, why silence on this issue?

    Hey while we're at it, any word on cross progression? Maybe then I'd play on my PC and not have this gripe

    @BTBaggins Yup, huge issue. Drove me away from the game early this season. Had put up with it for way too long, and apparently no fix in sight. Although the discussions and ToS-friendly banter towards the PC kids on my team was fun, just couldn't bother anymore.
    And crossplay off doesn't even work. It puts you in there with Xbox and PC just the same. Not that it worked before anyway.
    If crossplay is so great, start putting PC's into BR as well, especially in ranked. I mean, why limit it to Mixtape if it's such a great thing.

    I've been having this issue for months too. I play on console (Nintendo Switch) and my Mixtape lobbies (for all 3 modes) have PC players in them. It's super frustrating as PC has a clear advantage of movement, graphics and performance compared to Switch. It's already a struggle to play against Xbox and PS players, and now it's even more unfair to play against PC players. I hope it gets fixed or addressed in next season.

    I'm glad you guys are talking about this because the PC players and just cheating in general is ruining tdm for me.  I like tdm because it forces me to step up my game and move faster than normal and try harder.  It annoys me when situations  like I had about an hour ago where an octane goes around sliding and doing impossible summersaults and slides while one shotting several people in a matter of seconds.  Nobody's aim is that accurate that they can headshot multiple players while sliding so I reported him.  I don't understand why the PC players are allowed to play modified games when people like us have to work with the game as programmed.

    Please fix this issue with mixtape because tdm is one of my favorite parts of the game and it is disappointing when only about 1 out of 4 matches are competitive.  I don't mean just when I lose, I've had some games where the cheater or PC players were on my team, and it ruined it because I barely had a chance to get shots in.  I have had good tdm matches, and you know those when people aren't doing impossible moves and the final score is like 37 to 40 for the losing team and 50 for the winner, my last match ended at 49 to 50.  Those are the fun ones no matter who wins. 

  • Welcome to Seaon 19 Mixtape where it’s none stop PC players whoppin’ on console players all day. I usually do a 50/50 split. But after this new update, it’s crawling with PC players. It’s lost all value. I play mixtape to get through the season pass quicker,  but it’s unplayable now. I defended APEX, but now I truly believe it’s unplayable.

    @cptameica That sounds awesome! I'm definitely gonna install the update now. 🤡


    As said before. Give hacks to consoles, cap PC at 60fps, remove MnK support from PC, or just get them the heck out of there. Shouldn't be that difficult.
