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.
Most console players would prefer to see the crossplay with PC players removed leaving them to enjoy their version of the game and then console players to enjoy theirs. It is incredibly frustrating and very uncompetitive when the inferior console experience is destroyed by the highly dominant and superior PC experience.
Not only is there no aim assist on console to counter the mouse and keyboard dominance. The quality of the newest GPU’s now running DLSS (improving input lag even more) along with the mouse and keyboard inputs where PC players have opted to shall out their hard earned on the best gear with the highest quality of capabilities leaves those even with the best controllers money can buy, wanting to smash it against the wall.
PC’s have the added advantage of far superior sound cards to really hone their audio settings for the all important footsteps amongst other tweaks all to get the best advantage. Then there are the more specific in game advantages PC players enjoy like, strafing, target acquisition, minimal weapon recoil, sliding and the general movement which just leaves you wondering WTF just happened and the speed it happened at.
Only if you have played and experienced BF 2042 from the console side can you appreciate the unfair advantage this game provides those using a good quality PC and if only we could see on the scoreboard, the players and which platform they are playing on to see the real dominance PC has over console.
You will rarely ever hear PC players in BF 2042 if ever, say, I wish we didn’t have to play with the console players. Why would they when it’s easy pickings all day long.
PS. Don't mention the cheaters on PC as that is for another day.....
