We don’t want cross play with pc

Cross-platform play is ruining the console experience. On one hand, we deal with cheaters, and on the other, PC players have a clear aiming advantage. Right now, most console players leave matches as soon as they get stomped—because they don’t even realize cross-play is enabled by default. Those of us who know to turn it off are in the minority, and disabling it means painfully long queue times.
Your so-called 'preferred cross-play mode' isn’t working. Most matches are still filled with PC players. Either give us a console-only cross-play option or make cross-platform DISABLED by default for console users.Fellow console players, if you agree, back me up—let’s get the devs to see this!

    200% Console Cross Play 

    No PC on Console world 

  • the bad part is disabling crossplay also makes it platform specific. xbox only or ps5 only. I agree the game NEEDS to be PC only and console to console crossplay. I dont even want it to be input based cuz as soon as cheaters start flooding a game i will abandon it on my pc and only play it on console. I know console has xim and cronus issues but what pc can have is often far worse.

    separating console and pc also helps the whole "mnk is OP"or "controller is OP" arguments, and developer trying to balance for both. while the people crying on either side are usually just lower skilled players who whant to make loud enough noises to where the developer hopefully balances the game around their preferred input to squeeze out any edge they can.

    Crossplay between pc and console has always been good in theory, allowing friends to play, and in many game genres its great. But NOT in FPS games its NEVER balanced  games like halo with slower movement high ttk  no recoil favor controller. Games like BF with fast movement low ttk favor MNK. Mixing or balancing for a middle ground just makes everyone angry.

    As a PC player who uses a M&K, I fully support having a no cross-play with PC option on console, and having a PC vs PC only option for PC players. And would like an option for input-based matchmaking as well. The older Battlefield experience was so much better when it was PC vs PC only. After my negative experience with cross-play in 2042, my main gripe with cross-play is the network-related issues it introduces. In 2042 cross-play, you suffer from input delay, killed behind cover, and kills and deaths that feel cheaply given. It's like some kills and deaths were scripted, and it happens often. And for the record, I have Fiber internet and there is no issues going on with that.

    I don't care for cross-play at all! Zero interest! Give everyone an option to disable cross-play. And an input-based matchmaking option.

    Totally agree with everything you said. It needs to be off by default, otherwise the player pools get too intertwined and diluted. 

    Dice is somehow manipulating the netcode to favor Console players. You can absolutely tell that something feels way off and superficial. Every death from a Console player feels really weird.  

    I literally played a cheater last night on PC, but even they felt more legit than most Console players. I could actually kill them consistently.
