Crossplay isn’t the reason TTK feels inconsistent. Console-only players are reporting the same desync and hit-reg issues, which shows the real culprit is netcode, matchmaking and latency compensation, not the platform you’re fighting. Disabling crossplay through config files won’t fix that and it’s an unsupported tweak that EA could decide to restrict or even penalize if they see it as bypassing intended matchmaking, so it isn’t worth the risk. Crossplay only increases the player pool, it doesn’t make hit-reg worse. The network model and server performance are the real problems on top of all the other bugs the game is dealing with. I do agree PC needs a proper crossplay toggle though, Cause it'll be fun to see what PC complain about next lol.
You have no clue what you are talking about, at least test before replying like a delusional chatbot, go ahead and set your game trough config to turn off the crossplay because it is possible (look it up on google) and then hop in the game and play, you'll see only pc vs pc lobbies and all these problems will auto-magically be gone. Coincidence? I think not, Even with Crossplay ON when you have lobbies with few or no consoles the game feels a lot more fluid and the hit-reg issues magically are gone. Netcode netcode, however the console network makes the whole situation horrible thus making the game nearly unplayable. I agree with OzzLink: we 1000% need crossplay toggle in game. Another way to test Mr Brad is to hop on casual breaktrough and hope to get pc only lobbies 10v10 (rest are bots) and you'll see huge improvements to the game
iLiCS80 You don’t have a clue either because consoles would see the same improvement if they could force matchmaking the same way. Their menu toggle does not work like the PC config method and it does not force the same matchmaking conditions. The smoother feeling comes from how the server behaves in those reduced-load lobbies not from the absence of console players. And OzzLink Battlefield does not run its matches on PlayStation or Xbox-hosted gameplay servers. Once the match starts everyone is playing on the same EA server so platform handshake or session sync is not what causes in-match desync.
The config tweak is still an unsupported file modification and EA can treat it more seriously if they decide to because it does alter how matchmaking behaves. There is currently no official approval for the use of it. It forces the game into conditions EA did not design or support which puts it in breach of their rules on unauthorized modifications. So if you choose to use it that's on you and you will have to accept anything that happens to your account because, it is a possibility. I am not hating on PC players for using it I am only pointing out there is a risk and you should wait until they add a toggle if they ever do. You are creating unrealistic conditions that a menu toggle would never produce and that alone is enough for EA to treat it as a rule breach if they choose to.
iLiCS80 Here is your “delusional chatbot reply,” since you wanted one. The smoother PC-only lobbies you’re talking about have nothing to do with consoles; you’re creating abnormal matchmaking conditions with a configuration tweak that EA does not support. That isn’t better netcode, it’s you breaking the matchmaking system and misreading the side-effects as proof for your argument.
Yes, you are right Mr Brad, have fun ! and before you bestow more wisdom on how this game works without doing the bare minimum QA on it as suggested here's my answer to you: Because of people like you that know little about how networking is and works we the PC players cannot have a good game, just because EA catered to console peasants such as yourself doesn't mean you have to come here and reply to something that doesn't even concern you at all. You want a more detailed and technical answer, sure let's talk about it, butt in more without actually doing some real work here then I shall treat you like the delusional chatbot that you are.
Then why are console players at the top of the score charts in almost every game now....
Take your what will the pc players complain about next and kick rocks , console scrub with built in aimbot.
