Platform Dilemma
I have a dilemma and I'm sure I'm not alone on this one. I'm lucky enough to have a PS5 and a pretty high end gaming PC. I can play perfectly well with m&k on PC, but in all honesty I'm not a very co...

@HankBizzleSounds like you prefer the "chill" experience, so you have your answer. Also, if crossplay turns out as EA DICE want, you will have crossplay options to chose from. The PC community also has a greater prevalence of cheaters and I DO NOT want to go further into that...
@carsono311The only issue is that turning off cross play usually means it takes forever to get a match as it needs everyone in the match to have cross play turned off. And I genuinely think the player base in this game could end up way too fractured as it is because of having too many game modes and not including older gen consoles in the cross play. So it'll take even longer than usual to find a match.
So I am kinda swaying more towards what @1Hairy-Gorilla said. If I'm gonna have to play with PC players anyway, I might as well be one of them and have the added advantages available to me 😏
Actually you sounds like you want to go for the console way (because you prefer the more "relaxing" envoirement) but unsure about the "playerbase" in case of opting-out of crossplay.
So I give you the advice to think about your region, for an example on Europe region you will probably not have a low player count like on Australia / New Zealeand / Oceania region.
- @HankBizzle You could be right. I do expect PC to have the largest playerbase, however as I mentioned, it could also have more... issues to deal with as well.

But true, I have not checked these in the last 6-9 months.
If you logon to the server browser on the 3 different platforms, you still see today that you have more servers available globally for PS then any alternative. PC is next and Xbox the lowest. But the console volume of Xbox and Playstation players combined would by far be the biggest.
Now we just need EA to enable the crossplay among consoles while filtering away the PCs. Then you have a clear winner. Especially if you prefer the more casual playstyle. And getting rid of the system code PC cheaters is a very welcome additional reward.
@HankBizzleI'm not sure what you're talking about " longer to find a match " there is a server browser, why in the world would anyone use matchmaking?
- @GroundPounder500 Good point, I was too busy thinking about how other games with cross play work.
