Thank you for mentioning PC gamers with controllers as another category of gamers.
I agree that it is important to balance the various inputs of gaming peripherals. However, I think this is unrealistic. In the case of Battlefield, CoD, etc., these are highly competitive games and should be set up like sports. Similarly, in sports, it is not possible to fairly achieve competition between incompatible teams. That is why there are separate categories for men, women, youth, or disabled athletes, for example. I may be biased, but cross-play seems to me like forcing men (mouse + keyboard) to compete with women (game controllers) in the weightlifting category. For this purpose, I would have to come up with a nonsensical handicap for men or, conversely, a nonsensical advantage for women to make it possible. There will always be someone who says that the advantage is too small or, conversely, that the handicap is too big.
I'm dying laughing. hahaha. the men (mouse and kb) vs the women (game controllers) LMAO😅🤣 I can't believe 30 years later people still have this debate. technically the mouse and kb have the advantage, but in reality it depends on the person and I don't notice either having an advantage on any scoreboard I've seen. I love it, cause it means more people playing imo. More chances for competitive matchups. These is like one of those nerf threads to me, which seems to just drive people from the game. There is nothing wrong with cross play.
