Okay.. hear me out...

PC vs Console....

I don't necessarily want to NOT play with the console players.. but I'd prefer like at least 1 other PC player in the group...

Not to try and trash talk any console players, I just see a huge difference in the way PC and console players play the game.


Instead of crossplay off/on.. how about.. PC pref? lol *This post is mainly a joke... mainly*

    It should be a joke. I have nothing against console players.

    There's just a lot of stuff that's janky or just downright doesn't work on console. So we have to adapt our playstyle.

    Any precision killer, just no.

    Going against a pinhead? Forget looping, it doesn't exist lol.

    But the biggest issue, the one that's absolutely unforgivable!...... You can't run backwards as a survivor. It's simply not possible. Talk about favoritism, am I right?

    There's already a "PC pref" option. Turn off crossplay and magically all other players will be from PC. Shocking, I know.

    I'd say you probably didn't read my post all the way. 🙄

    Survivors on console have the same skill like PC survivors. Playing survivor with a controller is working well. I’ve played this game with PS4 players only before cross play got activated and I had no issues playing with them. Some PC players just like to blame console players for whatever reason.

    I love how you said "not to talk trash about any console players" when the whole point of this thread is you saying you don't wanna play with us bc you think we're bad lmao

    Before any "this platform only" or "that platform pref pls" bs is even considered, one should probably ask the devs for killer to survivor player ratios for that specific platform or better all platform in general.

    Iirc correctly before X-Play was on, consoles had horrendous queue times due to killer shortage for example.

    Implementing any of those ridiculous preference systems would bring people back to those times and tif there are enough and enough whining the devs might temper with matchmaking again to shorten the queues and we would be back in elo free for all.

    You say your not trying to trash talk but you literally did.

    You can always turn crossplay off. But that would mean you would only play vs PC killers and something tells me you dont mind console killers that much

  • I dont think theres any problem with controller players because they are all doing the same things we are. The one advantage we have over them is the 360 spins, but you can manage almost the same thing on controller.

    Theres no precision in the game besides the button prompts. You can still line up your character for flash saves. Everything else I can think of is a button prompt. So your skills come down to your movement, which I believe controllers can manage very well

    I wouldnt be surprised if most M1 killers can be played on PC with a controller and still do decent work.

    I play on PC, but because of some temporary neurological issues, it is hard for me to play M&K, so I currently use a controller.

    You're 100% correct. Even 360s are simple with analog sticks. There's really nothing that a survivor can do on M&K that can't be done on a controller (moonwalking is a little tricky, but possible).

    Regarding killers, some can be harder to play, due to flicks (e.g. Blight), but most killers are very much playable. I've actually really been enjoying Demogorgon on a controller. Something just feels right about pulling a trigger to launch him across the map.

    A lot of people on these forums make mountains out of molehills. Playing this game with a controller makes very little difference. Though, BHVR would do well to add some better controller customization, as using the same button for multiple actions can screw a survivor over sometimes (e.g. Pinhead chains at pallets).

    I wish I could moonwalk as a survivor. So much swag wasted...


    You know those beta survivors scared to get caught so they only BM when they are safe? I would be the alpha Chad that BM's in the killer's face.
