I am console player and this is insane that we have to face pc players and they in close combat just dominate the battlefield it is also very hard to fight them in air, duels like heli vs heli or pla...

@Anubis1122 Wouldn’t matter if PC players want consoles on their team or not, match making doesn’t give any of us a choice where or what to play. There’s numerous posts about M&K should be available for consoles as controllers are for PCs. It’s not fair that both aren’t offered to both communities. There’s lots of posts where PC players think aim assist is basically a hack and the don’t want to play with consoles. There’s also lots about how PC players hack and don’t want to play with them. In 1500 hours of play I’ve seen tons of console players get most kills, and also tons of PC players. The netcode and crossplay network compensation, combined with low budget 45hz Amazon servers create a really poor environment for all of us to play in. There’s posts about that too. Do you have anything new to add or you’re just feeling frustrated as a new player just learning how borked the game is?
I'm not happy with the crossplay arrangement either, but you do have a option. Assuming you have the digital version you can download and play the last gen version. You'll only be paired with others running the XB1/PS4 version.
Drawbacks:
20Hz servers
Slightly worse graphics
64p servers only
Dumber teammates
Pros:
Console only crossplay
64p servers only
Personally I bounce between the PS4 and PS5 version. When I get annoyed with one version I'll go play the other for a few days. My ideal would be a next gen console only crossplay option.
