Crossplay improvements in the next Battlefield

It's pretty clear, crossplay between PC and console is an outright plague for console players across many games including Battlefield due to the many disadvantages they have going against PC players....

    EA/Dice have the statistics to show just how much of a disadvantage forced crossplay is for console players, but of course they will not reveal it. For the same reason they will not explain WHY they implemented cross play default for the first time in BF history.

      @Foffe75 The why is easy, it’s money. It’s always money. Crossplay makes for less overall servers, no need for persistent servers, etc. All games (*ok not all but most) are going crossplay. It’s less infrastructure, two (old gen consoles need their own) instead of four or more teams. Server side changes are probably easier to implement, so again cheaper.

        Yes, in deed. Tossing console players under the buss for cash.
