I do not normally play games and complain, but PC playing with Console is completely unfair. Every group I have ran into that is playing on PC, while I am on console, have literally just destroyed my crew and I with no contest. Reloading, swapping weapons, and even more accurate of aim with the cannons is far easier and more viable on Pc then it is on Console. Makes the voyages and even ship battles unfair and is even making me lose interest and even 20 or 30 friends I sail with even agree.
Cross Platform Unfair
@born-fierce Adding a side note. I view a simple fix could be allowing Console Players the opportunity to be able to switch between Console or CrossPlatform Servers. I have heard a lot of people even on streams feeling the unwillingness to play cross platform.
@born-fierce
they dont ALLOW it. and more than likely, your just here complaining you got owned and now you are looking for a scapgoat to make yourself feel better.@born-fierce Yes, because streamers are expert on gaming matters. Thanks for your enlightening opinions! Thanks for telling people why they should have to spend 200$+ to get a xbox just to play the game together!
But seriously, cross platform play is the future. there 0 reason not to add it. The whole myth saying the majority of pc players cheat, is a blatant lie. people can cheat on xbox too you know. Its not that hard. (i admit its harder on xbox, but not THAT hard)@nightraven12345 never said people do not cheat on console, but i dont have the same fluid movement or frame rate to keep up with people on PC. PC has way better refresh rates and response time then a console. If xbox would finally adapt the keyboard and mouse to consoleike they have been saying for well over a year i am sure a lot of people would transition.
@born-fierce No... no one would transition. the framerate and refresh rate problem u suggest has nothing to do with the game, but the overpriced hardware you are using.
As soon as PC players right click to aim with their weapon/cannon they go into sloth mode, aiming in this game is anything but easy, or fun, alternatively you can put your sens up high which means when you arent aiming you go into hyper warp mode and lose your bearings instantly.
I think the big problem is desync or lag compensation or whatever. I get shot through walls (by both players and skeletons) and obvious hits are apparently misses. If they make it so characters actually are where you screen shows they are, it would get better.
I personally don't like the cross play. I don't want to play with someone on a pc. Just give me the option to do so. This way if I have a friend that has a pc I can turn the switch on and boom good to go. IMO Xbox has a large enough community and doesnt need PC players. If you put up a vote I think people from Xbox would vote to turn cross play off. Just try it and see.... "IMO" means In my opinion. Just for you trolls out there ; )
@born-fierce, I feel the opposite. I play on the PC and encounter more Xboxers (friendlies). Personally, the kb+m was much more cumbersome and I've become a PC+XboxController hybrid player.
Why would PC players have the advantage?
Cross Platform: Great Idea ! Should be an option.
I play K&M and I kinda get bummed out when a random team mate is on a controller, knowing the limitations the controller has.
I honestly prefer not to know if my team mate is on a controller.
Still Cross Platform should be an option and especially for beginners, at least beginners should have the option !
I don't mind easy loot don't get me wrong but I belive it's fair to have the option !I'm playing on pc with controller. I can assure you that fighting in this game is not much different with keyboard mice. only thing which is missing on controller is a 180°turn button.
the alpha and beta was running for month and there were thousands of people playing. Nearly noone complained.This game is no hardcore gun and run shooter. the hitboxes are big, aim assist on controller. simple play the game and have fun.
@greencamillion1 which way is it unfair? I see no difference I play on Xbox and I love the fact of playing with people on pc
They need to do console only and pc only queue options. Whenever my xbox buddy hosts games, we always get easy forts to raid and the enemies on the map all fight like bronze players in Overwatch. Whenever I queue from PC, it feels more even and the forts are always a nightmare.
Cross platform works great until you get to pvp, where mouse and keyboard obviously dominate.
@greencamillion1 said in Cross Platform Unfair:
sorry to say, but I play with X-box players, and some have the keyboard and mouse for it, but go's back to the controller.
but yeah a pc player will have some advance, but all battles are 80% position last 20% is ur execution of the plan/fight
Dont comment on comment unless you know whats been said.
