Why is there no Console Only Cross-Play?
We should get console crossplay only so me and my friend can play together without being killed every 2 seconds by some xtreme fast pcplayer.
they have unfair advantages over console players… ...
Forum Discussion
Can we please get an official stance on whether this is happening or not? Console players have been asking for this since launch. Judging by the silence I'm guessing it isn't something you're considering because it'll leave PC players short, yet you ignore the fact that console players are already getting the raw deal here.
It's just common sense to have Series X and PS5 players together by default. The systems are similar specs, using similar hardware and controllers. Everyone is on a level footing. It would be nice to have an optional toggle to play with current gen and PC for those who have friends on PC or those who prefer it.
Side note, I own all 3 platforms and started BF with BF2 on PC. This isn't me pulling opinions out of thin air, aiming with m and k is so much easier than using a controller. Especially in 2042 as the aiming (like everything else) is naturally jankier compared with previous titles.
Also, I don't want to hear from PC players who don't think this is an issue. If you don't think it affects you then just move on and ignore this post. You can still play your game you'll just have less cannon fodder.
The makers of this game must all be PC players and full of you know what. They know this is the main thing console players want. They offered it in beta and they promised it at launch. Nothing but the good ol bait and switch and silence from Dice and EA! Turn crossplay off, never get a game, turn it on and youre stuck playing with a disadvantage. Good luck getting on the top 3 scoreboard or over 30 kills. The developers can add things to make you spend extra money but they cant add console only crossplay. They can add weekly escalations but they have nothing but silence on forced crossplay. So EA/Dice if you are listening... WE KNOW YOU SCREWED THE GAME UP AT LAUNCH, WE KNOW ABOUT THE COUNTLESS BUGS, UPDATES, AND ALL THE OTHER BEE ESS YOU HAVE BESTOWED UPON US SINCE WE GAVE YOU OUR MONEY. GET A CLUE AND GIVE US CONSOLE ONLY CROSSPLAY LIKE YOU PROMISED OR GIVE US OUR MONEY BACK!
@braynematterThere was crossplay with consoles only at launch. I know because I used to play with crossplay off. But as time went on there was not enough players to find a full match because most players left so I was forced to turn it on.
- @NazT55 There’s never been console only crossplay on the next gen version. It only exists on old gen. Since launch, crossplay has always put me in with pc players.
- @SMiT2710 Yes there has been crossplay only on next-gen versions. If you were on PS5 then you would only play with PS5 players. Xbox Series would play with other Xbox Series players. Yes, last gen could play again PS and Xbox players. On the Xbox series, you had to disable it another way than going through the options screen like you could on the PS5 version.
Just had a pc user a minute ago... Level S487 blatently using wall hacks and aimbot, go 54 and 3 in k/d ratio, been reported several times but nothing happens and we are forced to play with him and the likes of him. It is almost as if EA/DICE is endorsing and condoning it because they are just happy someone is playing their game. Either way I want a refund for the bait and switch. REFUND ME PLEASE.
