Seems like we have to wait a bit more to find out my friend..
I wish the devs were more transparent regarding this feature. Is it being worked on? Is there any reason to not add this? As long as M&K users are limited to crossplay lobbies this should be a perfectly fine feature to have in game.
Oh, and potentially less XIM users joining a console lobby.
- Lancelot_du_Lac4 years agoSeasoned Ace@FireExhauster Xim/Titan/Chronos are incompatible with PS5, due to the requirement to use a DualSense controller on all games designed for the PS5. Apparently, the encryption is unbreakable.
- 4 years ago@Lancelot_du_Lac it is true if third party controllers follow suit. If the encryption is broken and they don't bother changing it then I'd assume XIM and Cronus numbers will rise back up.
- Lancelot_du_Lac4 years agoSeasoned Ace@FireExhauster A quick look at the Xim/Titan/Cronus forums confirm that there will be no support for PS5 in the foreseeable future. Many users are moving to Xbox because the controllers are backwards compatible.
Third party controllers will eventually appear (licenced by Sony), but nothing I have seen on the horizon. PS5 is becoming a closed environment, a bit like Apple. - OskooI_0074 years agoSeasoned Ace
Apparently XIM works on ps5 with remote play now. Supposedly the input lag is low on gigabit lan ethernet and using the TV hooked up to ps5 instead of the remote play TV.
- 4 years ago@OskooI_007 There was a firmware update that allowed the DS4 controller to be used on PS4 games on the 5, could that be what you are on about?

Emulators will still work on PS5, if the game is a PS4 generation. Games designed for PS5 i.e. use DualSense controller, will not work with an emulator (this includes scuff controllers).

Apparently Sony doesn't require a DualSense 5 controller for remote play.

Cheaters are going to cheat anyway. They will find another way. It is not fair for us to not have kb&m support because of it. Imagine if PC players are not allowed to play this game because it is easy to cheat with pc. It is not fair. Please add kb&m support. If devs add kb&m support then people don't need to buy adapters to play. The biggest reason people pay big money to buy adapters is to play game with kb&m and aim assist will come as bonus and since they paid money anyway, they will not care about turning it off for extra advantage. But if kb&m is supported they will not even buy the adapter. Very small percentage of people will cheat because they are born cheaters and it is not fair that we have to pay price for it. Halo has input based lobbies and also has kb&m support for consoles and there wasn't any major issues at all that even their new multiplayer game has this feature and it is free to play. Adapter users should be banned. kb&m support should not be turned off for that. We are fair players who want to play fair games with device we are comfortable on and because of a small number of people's actions we shouldn't face the punishment. This is a multiplayer FPS game with crossplay which is why we are asking this support. If it was spiderman or a single player game then it is more fun on controller.

Controllers vs controllers is a FAIR playing field. If console players want to use MnK then have them only queue up with PC players only in cross play. It should be DISABLED if cross play is disabled. This prevents an unfair advantage in a FPS game when most people are using controllers on console. That is the best solution. Saying "cheaters are going to cheat" is completely ignorant and it does not solve anything.
- 4 years ago@IKniveZI Yes exactly thats what we want too. Put us in crossplay lobby if we use kb&m support for consoles. By cheaters I mean adapter users. if kb&m is natively available then less people buy adapters and less cheaters. But some will still buy adapters because they are cheaters and they should be banned. thats what i mean.
