Console/PC desync and PC cross play option

hit detection is trash again. with lower player counts, hit detection is RNG again.

nearly every close quarters battle I have with a console player ends with an insta death for me.  I've been killed the frame they appear on my screen. I have a solid consistent connection, typically 37ping.  It's not even a latency thing, its a DICE trash netcode/Amazon server/tick rate thing. at the very least, let PC choose to have cross play on or off.

at some point DICE, you need to put your big boy pants on, and purchase servers to control the quality.

at the end of the day, this is a shooter, and when the core mechanic of the game is broken, no one wants to play it.  I only continue to play cause I paid for it.  trying to get my monies worth out of it.

  • I havent played since the update today but going to set expectations low as a PC player

  • Guys, I have always a Ping of 10.

    And I am on Console (PS5) and have the same Problem.

    It isn't you die because of Console, you die because the Server prefer Guns with fast TTK or fast fire rate.

    If I Play the M60, I loose a lot Close quarter Fights, if I play SCW10, then I win.

    This is so stupid. It doesn't matter If I shoot with the M60 (Damage 33) first, I loose against a Kord. No Matter how many Bullets Hit the Guy. The Server decide always for the faster guns.

    I don't think they cared about PC, they only care about farming the console money.  Every time I die and think "Boy, that was a complete BS death" it's a console player on the other end.  

    Something about today is 100% worse however.  I didn't think the update was up yet, or maybe they're shutting things down to do it, but I have literally been standing behind cover, not even peeking, and getting beamed by consolebots.  I end a match and there's nearly always several consolebots on both teams with over a 10/1 KDR, yet glazers and simps will say I'm just angry a console player is better than me.

    It's enough to make me attempt to get steam to refund me.  Anytime you watch a video on how much advantage the consolebots get, it makes me realize that EA/Dice does not care about me as a PC player.

    Also, the servers are as bad as they are because otherwise consoles couldn't keep up.  Another reason to let us disable crossplay, but here we are.

  • Yeah, this is the reason I'm back playing 2042. I have a consistent 12-13 ping on giga fiber, it isn't me.

    It's the server prioritizing the higher ping, (proof is in the network performance graphs) The burst packet framework of WiFi systems, and the Packet scheduling of 3 to 20 other devices on the typical console players network on is probably the largest issue. 

    If you really want to see some BS play Redsec and spectate the console/controller player that killed you. Beaming people consistantly through smoke, RPG's that never miss as long at they're within an aim-assist cone of aimbot, snipers that don't have to lead targets, and are often a meter behind a running target. 

    Its pretty evident to me why the STEAM player base has become smaller than Rainbow Six, a TEN year old game... 

    These aforementioned reasons, and the utter POOP that the skins are, and the joke of a season pass will kill this game.
