Hey DICE I know you guy's are pretty busy right now so I'm just going to lay out for you 2 answers for our many questions:
A) We are currently working on Mouse and Keyboard support for console and it should be out in the next few days/months.
B) We have no intent to enable Mouse and Keyboard support for consoles in the near future
Just reply A or B and everyone here will be thankfull.

Played warzone last night with a couple of friends. They all used controllers while I was on mouse and keyboard. So much fun and not even the slightest bit unfair since my mates all got more kills than me.
I really hope they add support soon. I even bought 2042 thinking it already had support so I was quite dissapointed when it didn’t…

Just adding my +1, this game needs to support mouse and keyboard on consoles ASAP, and we’re like 12k persons to want it: https://battlefield2042kbm.com
For the people who say « then buy a PC », I think that matchmaking should be by peripheral (kbm vs kbm and controller vs controller, and if you want to play with a controller vs kbm then you should).Without support of KBM then you encourage support of stuff like XIM…
What’s the cost of implementing support for mouse and keyboard on console ?
I think all games should be playable with mouse and keyboard and it’s a shame that crossplay games doesn’t support that (like Back 4 Blood or BF 2042).
Even for solo games, AC Valhalla is playable with mouse and keyboard on console but not Far Cry 6, wtf Ubisoft ?

Not even a comment about this, unbelievable...

I don't understand what we are supposed to do here. The devs said constructive feedbacks is the best way to grab their attention but it doesn't seem that way. They only reply to issues after people * on them for it. It's so bizarre.
If there is ANY hesitation you guys have in terms of balance, we can sort it out and make sense of it. Not a single person who is against this support have a valid point to support their claim. Ask people WHY they are against M&K support in a crossplay lobby and not a single person can give a valid reason. The only common ones you'll hear is "Buy a PC", "Learn using controller", and M&K unfair for controller players". None of them makes sense with the context and are completely unproductive and selfish comments. It doesn't explain what problem they have with this support. Saying "Buy a PC" is such a sadistic comment that people make and you ask them what's their problem and they can't answer.
Don't trust people who just say no without giving a valid reason. Trust people who stick with their idea and give valid evidence to defend it till the end.

@FireExhausterWell, I can atleast give some comfort in that i've seen a couple of articles about the petition for Mouse and keyboard support so hopefully DICE will get caught up and we'll see some answers soon 🙂
Don't let the hope go away - 4 years ago
We need this support soon. All we want is someone to tell it is getting worked on and we will wait. But saying nothing is unfair. You guys said you will listen to us and now you are silent. For four months we are asking for this support. Even before the beta. Please give us answer. It means lot for us.

Looks like the update broke mouse movement for some PC players. Should we spam their threads with "Buy a Console"? Sorry Don't mean to find humor in other players misfortune.

@MTFULemmingDon’t be sorry, we have all the rights to say “buy a console” to those imbeciles who said “buy a PC”
Am going to do that, which thread are they crying ??😂
- 4 years ago@balaji5789 As a long time PC gamer who recently converted to Console thanks to KBM integration, I'm shocked by how many people popped into this thread just to say "buy a PC". I know most PC players couldn't care less what hardware the opposing players are using.
- 4 years ago@MTFULemming To my understanding, PC players are the helm of gaming..They are the one’s who can never complain about anything because
1. They can have high fps compared to consoles
2. They can have their preferred input always
Yet they still cry for some reason..I don’t even understand those guys..And not all are like that. I have to admit that as well !! - 4 years ago@balaji5789 I do miss the customization and great chat apps. But I do not miss driver issues, OS updates breaking things, and stupid antivirus software. For a truly casual gamer with a stressful job and busy family? Console just fits! WHEN I CAN USE KBM
- 4 years ago@MTFULemming Very well said, am a casual gamer too…All I need is to play God of War laying down on my couch or taking KBM to chill in Fortnite or COD…
Instead am getting my @$$ kicked every time I spawn in battlefield by PC players..Ridiculous !! - 4 years ago@FireExhauster Solid statement!

They seem not to have a life outside their gaming world, and a lot a streamers that actually "make a living" with videogames understand it even when they spend all of their time playing..
They are just lame and they will cry for everything.
I have a new born daughter, stressfull job, a house to maintain, so I don't have the time and energy to spend to "get better" using a controller. Just a casual gamer who want's to play with the input method that I like. If this game can deliver, will go to the competition.
Developers, streamers and the rest of the ratboys need to understand that there are players that don't make a living with videogames (don't really care if my statement offends them)Sorry.. needed to blow some steam off...

Dice and EA are a disgrace.
posting the link for the petition again to bump this thread and hopefully catch a few more signatures.
https://battlefield2042kbm.com
on a side note, I’ve found the only part of this entire game that is in anyway enjoyable is BF3 in portal. But I paid full price for that game when it came out just like I paid full price (+early access) for 2042 to play a game that’s 10 years old 😂
- 4 years ago@SmasherBrown0654 lmao XD crazy
- 4 years ago@CofranOPC Thank you for posting. I have 3 daughters under 6 years old and I have no desire to sit on the couch and hog the TV to "learn controller". I like sitting at my desk and playing like I always have..
I would love to quit my job and make a living playing games but:
1) I suck at most games
2) I am very laid back and would not be very entertaining to watch.
I really hope somebody at EA wakes up and give us this simple feature because it would probably take me away from warzone in a heartbeat. - 4 years ago

To be honest I’m kind of done with this game after tonight. Does anyone know if it’s possible to get a refund for a ps5 digital game?

MW on MnK on Console is a hard game, you’d have such a better time if they added support to 2042

I am going to buy the adapter to play kb&m for the consoles. And I will turn off crossplay and turn on aim assist so I get easier games. If devs add kb&m later then I will stop using
- 4 years ago@SmasherBrown0654 Absolutely impossible, it's 2042, not 2077
