Netcode

PC players who bother with the config edit and finally get PC-only and in most cases end up in almost empty lobbies, report the same netcode garbage.

Catch up, this was patched LONG ago and is no longer viable option to force crossplay off. PC players were receiving bans for editing these files so they could improve their experience. Players were being punished for something that was at the root of BF games. I will say again... editing the config file to bypass crossplay on PC is IGNORED when launching the game and finding a match. Even if the file saves your edits, you will see Crossplay OFF on the matchmaking screen but you will still be pared with players on PS5 and XBOX platforms. This is widely known and isn't hard to find on Steam and EA forums. I'd be happy to send a screenshot or record a clip for anyone who doubts the claims here.

Additionally, the experience feels much more different when lobbies are stacked with more or less platform majority. I experience way less anomalies when the majority of players are PC players.

They need to give PC a crossplay toggle like consoles have.

💯 There no need to force players to play on crossplay. If we wait longer, we wait longer or we get bots till it fills up. Implement Crossplay OFF for PC and let the problems manifest after the change, just like DICE's current model of patches and live-testing.

Would be good to see some actual stats published by DICE / EA on all this.

I'd recommend community based statistic collection and analysis before I trust the publisher who would benefit from nudging sentiment to support their investments. Let Reddit users do their thing.

The sheer amount of feedback on crossplay is exactly that, feedback that should not be ignored. Good, bad, critical, or indifferent, EA/DICE has an obligation to consider feedback when the problem continues to manifest time and again.
