Need control device crossplay options for ALL

The current situation (crossplay by platform and choice only available to console players) is totally EA/DICE making choices for their benefit and not for players/community.

Lots of console players do not want to play PC players and vice versa and both have good reason.

Lots of controller players do not want to play against M&K players and vice versa and both have good reason.

Everyone knows that there are big situational inequalities between mouse-and-keyboard and controller and inequalities - lesser, but there - between PC and console (FPS etc).

You cannot 'fix' the inequality between mouse-and-keyboard and controller by adding aim assist and recoil reduction to the controller. This just creates another situation inequality that makes it worse. Two wrongs do not make a right, they make a horrible mess no one enjoys.

And whatever your feelings about it, to give the option of crossplay-or-not just to console players is awful.

The only acceptable situation in 2025 is to have crossplay options by control device and by platform and to give those options TO ALL.

If this causes some lobby delays to those choosing to opt out of some situations, that is a failing of the popularity of that choice and not something others should be made to suffer for.

Personally, I am a PC M&K player and I do not want to play against controller users either console or on PC, and to force that is the first thing that makes me not want to play the beta, never mind buy the game.

  • Excellent summary. I commented on a similar post expressing the same concern. Console specific cross play should be an option, especially by now with currently Console capabilities. Im surprised we're still having to ask for it!
