@Zero-Loot5I don't see any issue with MNK support on the console, warzone was able to apply the system perfectly on day one.
it's very simple, once MNK is connected and MNK selected as the input method then the player will get the PC treatment, reduced or no aim assist, and will be joining PC lobbies.
so actually it's the other way around, if the console gets MNK support and matched in PC lobbies then the disadvantage here is the framerate as long it's still capped on console and even if it's opened then consoles like PS5 and Xbox X can get 120 FPS at most but it's still better than 60.
not mentioning the older consoles which can get to 40 FPS at most
in the end, having the option is nice and I don't see any downsides of It

@maximas1986 Yeah, honestly I don't like the idea of forcing a input method down everyone's throat. If someone wants to play MnK on console let them do it as long as they are put in appropriate lobbies. If someone gets low fps that's on them and it's their choice if they want to be in PC lobbies.

@BaldWraithSimp " If someone gets low fps that's on them and it's their choice if they want to be in PC lobbies"
exactly, if a player feels they are at disadvantage it's on them as long the option exists.
most important is the correct implementation from Respawn side which easy and straightforward.
if they don't know how to do it they can steal it from Activision XD
