Re: Crossplay off, no games on ps5

It defaults to crossplay on, so new players will have no clue about turning it off.   I can always get TDM matches with PS5 only, but never any other mode.

    @DaMutha1 By default game asks you if you want to have it on or off as soon as you open the game.

    @UP_LordPlumber The problem is: even if you choose crossplay OFF initially you can't find a game so you go right away back to settings and turn it on and leave it on.
    Only solution: get rid of crossplay.

    @JOGAGATYA I understand that playstation gamers want to play together with friends that are on pc, and for that reason it's good that the option is there. But the biggest mistake was making it a default setting... It completely ruined the game for console players.

    @cornybbq2 Agreed, the forced crossplay was a mistake, it should have been the other way around. Crossplay off by default and only those who wanting to play with other platforms should actively change the setting.
    The idea of crossplay is overrated, see ongoing debates about controller aim assist vs mouse and keyboard.

    @cornybbq2 lets be fair crossplay is the only reason there was a game these past 18 months because I can guarantee you that without crossplay this game would have died long before season 1 ever released

    Maybe PC players would be in trouble without crossplay. The last gen version always had full lobbies in the last 2 years.  I played on the PS4

    originally, lately playing on the PS5 but loading up the last gen version often.

    I've said this before but I don't understand why they don't just start a match with bots and fill live players in as they load? Why do we have to sit in a lobby waiting for anyone?? Just start the match

    Crossplay off PS5, Change to European Region.
    Back to Back games with little to no waiting time.

    That's the most obvious and simplest solution.

    I have also been advocating for this change for some time now, less time in lobbies more time actually playing I say.
