Fairness suggestion / Bot vehicle priority
Team, the game is incredible. I play it every day with my friends, and it’s amazing. But there are a few things I can’t understand:
1. Mouse and keyboard on consoles
I love the fact that consoles can now play against PC players using mouse and keyboard. It’s simple math: the number of muscles involved gives mouse players more agility and precision compared to what you can do with just your fingers on a controller. That’s fine — great move!
But what sense does it make to let this platform disadvantage become an internal disadvantage within the same platform?
And I believe the solution is very simple: only allow mouse and keyboard on consoles when cross-play is enabled.
You did an amazing job banning those adapter devices — this is just one more step to make gameplay completely fair.
If a controller player is okay facing mouse users, they can just keep cross-play enabled. But PLEASE ensure controller-vs-controller matches remain fair.
2. Bots taking vehicles
Why are bots allowed to take vehicles before players can? At the start of a match, players can’t spawn directly into vehicles, but bots can — which doesn’t make sense.
Again, I think the solution is simple:
- a) Bots should not be able to spawn directly into vehicles.
- b) To prevent bots from competing with players for vehicles, only allow bots to enter a vehicle 10 seconds after the vehicle becomes available.
This would also prevent bots from setting or overriding the vehicle loadout before a player gets to it.
