Yo, DICE
Please don't forced console and PC cross-play.

For me it is two part.
1. PC hacks.
EA/Dice has a horrible track record.
I gave Warzone a try a year or so ago.
Every 3rd game with Crossplay had 1 PC guy wiping the lobby with obvious hacks.
So if it is/was hard for them to control hacking....EA/Dice is in trouble.
2. Controller Aim Assist.
I play on Console/Controller and I hate Aim Assist.
It should not be in a First Person Shooter.
I turn that crap off, since I want to play the game, not have the game play for me.
BFV aim assist is already stupidly insane.
Dice will probably turn it up to 11 to "help" controller players against Mouse/KB players for BF6, making the crutch that is Aim Assist be even more OP.
Meh.
We also have the legal tools PC players have, such as filters, or turning down textures so further away players are visible but not the trees/bushes they are using for cover, but that is a whole other discussion.

I understand PC cheats etc but I disagree with at least DICE having a track record. For me their games have been solid on release in terms of cheating and you could watch cheats get banned within minutes. It’s really only BFV that they showed no interest it seemed imo.
In older titles sure, cheating is rampant but it doesn’t bother me because I only ever play the latest titles, it’s rare I go back to older titles.
If anyone has a track record it’s the CoD franchise, even on console those games were filled with cheats and terrible servers which is why I quit at black ops. I have only ever gone back to play Warzone which for the most part I have enjoyed on PC.
I think lately Warzone has got real bad, I have stopped playing since the past season or two and after finding out they banned 475k accounts last week shows you how insane the cheating is on there, I’m not going back to it.
As for controller aim assist, I don’t think I’ve ever played a console game without it being included, so that shouldn’t affect cross play.
But yeh, I have always hated aim assist personally.
As for PC tools etc I agree, mice alone are more accurate and have many settings of their own.

I'd only toggle it on to play against my PC friends and steal dogtags/souls from the popular youtubers to add to my collection - I think regular play would be a nightmare considering aim discrepensies and the obvious plethora of supposed cheaters to contend with
