I'm pretty happy with the information DICE has recently gave us

Better late than never.

I know some people aren't going to like it, but I am personally happy to see that m&k won't be allowed for the time being on console for now, maybe they'll get it figured out and have input based lobbies for ya'll that want to use m&k eventually.

I am looking forward to the beta as well since I didn't get to try it out when PS5 got removed from the tech test, and I get to have some more time playing October Halloween oriented games like B4B.

    @Its_Travis_199  If its not out by launch it's never getting removed/changed to late and to much hassle post launch imo.  All I can think of is this is EA as crossplay just being tested a few months back, its $$ looking at Warzone nevermind the players experience.  I mean they say they will listen but with fingers in ears I guess ☹️

    They have the perfect game and setting in Apex but ignore it for Battlefield?

    @1Hairy-Gorilla

    It's for sure not always like that, there was many things in previous titles that changed in a good way according to given feedback ect.

    But well, there is not much we can do anyways than giving feedback and share our thoughts about it.🤞

    Greets,

    @1Hairy-Gorilla I personally wasn't planning on using crossplay honestly if it was Xbox and PlayStation ONLY I might, but that doesn't seem to be something they're going to add.

    @TankerFlanker I wouldn't interpret the lack of MKB on console at launch as an omen of any type. I suspect it was mission creep that moved the MKB implementation to the right while they figure out how to handle it such as whether to segregate MKB players, make them play with PC, or allow them to play with general pop.

    @ragnarok013 I would hope they wouldn't make the mistake of putting them with everyone else using a controller with crossplay off, since there's bots to fill up matches.

    @TankerFlanker That's one of the issues they are undoubtedly hashing out. Playing against bots won't be fun so I'm sure they want to put them with controller users but are weighing the situation vs their technology and seeing how community sentiment compares. I play Halo on PC and Xbox and use crossplay so understand why most players don't want to match against MKB users.

    @TankerFlanker  Enjoy what I get in Fortnite 99% bot lobbies when only 10% turn it off per one of the Dice Devs.

    @ragnarok013  Halo is input based though so it not that bad over there right? KB/M vs pads is the problem.

    @1Hairy-Gorilla Not in all instances. I've been in lobbies with mixed input players.  Some PVP modes do seem to be input based while other PVP modes like infection do not. I remember being wrecked by some MKB users in BTB with sniper rifles on one of my rare Xbox times.
