Not to burst the bubble...
But as someone who spends more time playing on console..
cross-play?? Graphics update??
really? When we still have issues with the game randomly freezing/stuttering
can we get the basics fixed before adding in more problems to the game?

you realize if they're updating the graphics they're probably switching to UE4 right? meaning your performance will be a lot better because UE4 is more optimized for all platforms.

Probabilities don’t ease my concerns - certainties do.
i wish they were more transparent about what they’re doing and answer these things instead of having to inevitably find out in game.

Wait, so my FPS and stuff will IMPROVE?

It wasn't mentioned on the stream I don't think, but crossplay is apparently an opt-in feature. So if you don't want to play against PC players, you don't have to (although queues might be longer and matchmaking worse due to the smaller player pool).

The new consoles are coming out, bet it performs better on those

Yikes - at least I know I will be able to watch an episode of a show between games then.
I don’t know what’s worse, crossplay being there or having the option to opt out of it. Lol
just not a fan of it since KB+M isnt supported on console, and ngl, there is a difference in style of play/control in the game between the two

yes, most likely. the graphics update includes optimized maps.

Ooh, that's something to look forward to then, I was expecting my FPS to drop from 100 to like 40 lol. Ty for telling me! <3

This game runs on 4.23 or whatever. They're updating assets not the rendering pipeline of the game.
Regardless...given how terrible those servers are currently I wonder who is giving them those deadlines. Servers were obviously rushed af and same thing will likely happen with crossplay.

And those of us who will be stuck with the existing consoles long after the next gen ones are out? We were told 60 frames minimum over a year ago, an optimization that never happened, and much else. Now that the next gen consoles are nearing it's like "too bad see yaaaaa".

Not exactly,it's an opt-out feature.But yes,you will be able to choose whether you want to play against all platforms or stay in the ps4 player pool.

The only difference between pc and console is the better framerate and some killers like nurse,huntress or deathslinger are easier to play on pc but other than that there won't be any major differences.
Don't forget that DbD isn't a shooter game like CoD or Battlefield that requires precise aiming.

I mean I hear you 🤷♂️

Theres a difference between kb+m and controller for killer sure... But fortunately the killers arnt the ones competing with each other.

The learning curve for both roles mixing with PC players will be high imo. If issues with latency & ping & frames (plus no kb&m support) are not fully addressed beforehand, the curve may be insurmountable.

I'm still waiting for them to fix the nurse bugs since her rework 9 months ago. I have no hopes for that anytime soon.

We are already on ue4 or not? And every engine update dipped my fps more down on pc. Despite all the bugs like sound etc

But not a drastic advantage. It comes down to preference. This isnt a pinpoint fps like siege or CoD.
And with the insane sensitivity spike console got, turning speed isnt an advantage either...

if we were already on ue4 the resources for each map would look way better. for example, take a look at unreal tournament gameplay. ue3 is used by most developers like BHVR

According to Wikipedia it's already running on ue4.
I'm personally not very excited about another engine update. It usually was bringing more bad than good in my personal case
