Re: Console lobbies are way easier than pc lobbies?
@soccerking122 I think I can say a thing or two about this topic since I play on PC lobbies from time to time. I can't say that it's easier or more difficult, but the playstyle is just different. In PC lobbies, easier when it comes to close range but you'll get absolutely destroyed in open spaces.
My brain is too tired right now to use proper english and make a cohesive paragraph so I'll just enumarate my points
1. They are different playstyles. As you know, PC players (of course not all) tend to stay back and do some mid range damage first when third partying but usually doesn't happen in console lobbies. When people third party, they're in your face since aiming at mid-long range sucks with a controller.
2. I believe that PC players are caught off guard when controller players ape/rush them instead of the typical mid-range battle hence the frustration of some PC players. The only way a controller player can have an upper hand against an mnk player is at close range.
3. In general, console lobbies are tougher for me. I think some will have a different opinion on this.
4. As you have said, yes there are less snipers in console lobbies. Everyone has a close range weapon. No one touches the bocek or the sentinel. Some controller players won't even touch a kraber.
5. In console lobbies, you won't see any tap strafing or wild movements. The most advanced movement you'll commonly see is just the typical crouch strafe.
Not all lobbies are the same as well!
6. The difference in play styles are also WIDELY DIFFERENT from region to region. I noticed that North American servers lobbies tend to die faster as compared to my usual Tokyo servers. NA players are just more aggressive.
7. In general, it's harder to win in Tokyo lobbies since they are more strategic when engaging in fights even in pubs (in my opinion).
