Re: Keyboard and mouse on consoles

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 

@NoTimeToDecide Yeesh. It's comments like this that make controller players say "Go buy a PC." All you've said with this post is that you're tired of getting killed by people better than you and you want an unfair advantage over others. Play solo mode if you want it that badly, but don't ruin a server just to help boost your ego a bit.

I'm a controller player, and I support M&K on console, so long as DICE/EA implements input based lobbies. I suspect you'll still play with a XIM on controller only servers even if they add K&M support on the consoles. I hope I run into you on the Battlefield so I can spend the entire match tea-bagging you.

    I feel your pain guys lol it must be really hard playing against us pc players with basically 2 thumbs.

    I wouldn’t use xim if your on ps5 because the ps5 uses a handshake with the controller so it won’t work so dont waste money.

    I couldn’t use a controller if my life depended on it so I can only imagine how hard it’s gonna be against veteran kb/m users

    @emerson1975 It isn't that hard. I've found that most PC players aren't amazing shots either. Yes, there are some that wipe the floor with me, but it isn't every game.

    Everyone just prefers playing against others with their same inputs so no excuses can be made about winning/losing a gunfight. It should come down to skill, which is why they have this crossplay thing all backwards. I don't get it. Crossplay is great in a way, but shouldn't be forced on anyone.

    @emerson1975 Yeah it is very difficult. I spend so many time playing with kb&m. I like to play many games with controller like rocket league, for honor and every single player game. Actually controller is better for rocket league and pc players are allowed to use it and nobody complain. FPS game is good with kb&m and we are asking for this support and in crossplay lobby for balance and devs still don't care. @gF0rce14 I was joking to see if anybody reply. But many people will surely buy adapters if devs don't add this suppot.

    @Shadow-JitSu PSA for Xbox: DICE is currently testing the implementation of the crossplay toggle. If all goes well, players will be able to flip crossplay on/off via the game settings on Xbox in an upcoming patch
    I think this should be a good opportunity

    @WEIRUIWU I think we can get more help and support on Twitter, by posting or interacting with bloggers such as DICE

    That’s so weird, does it mean that when you disable crossplay you will only play with people of your console (Xbox vs Xbox) or all consoles (PS5 vs Xbox) ?

    IMO, that’s a waste of time, they should support MKB on console and implement a toggle for matchmaking by peripheral…

    Looks like XIM will have a long life ahead…

    Oh god, just read their comments. They all want crossplay with consoles. Only one dude mentioned MKB. Meanwhile DICE 🙊🙉🙈

    @WEIRUIWU thanks for the info. I've started reaching out on twitter under their post about xbox crossplay. We should all get on twitter and leave some comments.
