Let's talk about Crossplay, again...
I've been playing Redacted almost exclusively since it was released, and since it's infantry only, the horrible networking between consoles and PC really starts to show its self. Console players will...

@RaginSamThey could probably solve this with minimal work.... by giving us a server browser that lists official server modes and not just portal. Then what's left of the dwindling population could sort it out themselves. Probably asking for a miracle though.

There's a few ways they could solve the issue.
1. Go back to a server browser and let us rent and manage our own. The only real solution for BF2042.
2. Balance the Assist better and keep improving networking. Still realistic, but probably not ever going to happen.
3. Just simply turn Crossplay off. They're in too deep already with this.
1. Connect XB and PS5 without PC by default.
2. Allow console players to join PC servers but only without aim assist. Input device should be a choice since playing on a controller without aim assist doesnt really make sense.
3. Do not allow PC players to join console servers.
- @Luke88gwMake no sense. MaK against Controller without Aim Assist is unfair.
It makes more sense to allow Crossplay between Console and PC if you use MaK on Console or Controller on PC. It should only be crossplay based on the input device.
And if i'm honest, introduce an FPS limit on the PC too. Players with poor PCs and low FPS also have a harder time against PCs with better hardware, sometimes the hardware also starts p2w in my opinion.
Same with "pro Controller" on Console@gamefreak04I wrote that input device should be a choice in PC-console crossplay (console players joining PC servers). But without aim assist so basically if you play against PC you should play mnk becase playing on a controller would put you in disadvantage without any aim assist. But playing on console servers should not be an option for PC players because they can install cheats. On the other hand when you are a console player and have no aim assist on PC servers then cronus isnt helping much.
FPS limit and input device matchmaking would be very easy to bypass on an open platform like PC.Of course any PC-console crossplay does not make sense if tickrate isnt the same and some of you say its the issue in BF2042.
