Strawpoll on Cross-play
https://www.strawpoll.me/20848144
because the devs do not actually give us accurate data to analyze things with before we make a statement on the state of game I thought id do a quick strawpoll of cross-play.
I play DBD on console, with this in mind I opt out of cross play due to PC being vastly superior in every way to a console player and I do not want to have an insufferable game every time I boot up as a Killer Main.
im curious how many players actually use cross-play

I am really curious who asked for cross play over bug fixes tbh

Please bear in the mind the forums are a vocal minority of the overall playerbase, and so the general opinion may not be accurate to the opinion of the community as a whole.
Also this is a poll so expect it to be moved to the polls section of the forums.
EDIT: You also forgot about people who've opted out on only one platform (example I play on PC and Switch when my PC is being used, and while I've opted in on both I know people who opt-out on Switch but are in on, say, PS4).

I love cross play hands down. It brings the community together, solves queue times, and lets me play with friends on other platforms.

Crossplay is good, no more 5-10 minutes of waiting time as killer.

While I technically didn't do this, if I had known the drastic improvement in que times crossplay would have then I would have.
I cannot overstate how much of a difference low que times makes on the overall experience. It means I can get drastically more games in per session and thus the weight of any given trial is much less.
So when bugs do happen they mean less simply because I bounce from game to game very quickly. Get gen rushed? Move on immediately. Face potato's? Kill them quick and move on immediately. Get stuck on a hill? They get out and I'm in the next game almost instantly.
The frustrating things in this game are much less frustrating when it's not compounded by a 15 minute wait time between attempts.

I like crossplay, it leads to shorter queue times.
Also note that eventually when they bring back MMR that any hypothetical difference in win results between console players and PC players would automatically be reflected in their ratings. So if a console player for instance loses fairly regularly against PC players then their rating will go down and they'll face correspondingly easier PC players over time. (The same sort of thing can hypothetically happen with emblem ranks as well but the emblem rank system isn't quite as responsive as an elo style MMR can be.)

I'm just surprised it works, console still preform like ass so it just helps pc players more than anything which is fine but i'm sure console killers and survivors hate still having to deal with slide shows when ever bloodlust or mangled pops up.

I use it as a pc killer, mostly because console guys aren't near as into the gen rush as pc survivors are. I've even had a few strong console teams, but did ok because they don't hammer out gens in 5 minutes.

I personally turn it off as a console player. Id rather have my own form of balance by removing OP pc players to console plebs(K+M and 120fps vs 5-10fps on console and controller lol) than deal with SWF pc edition

People have been asking for crossplay for a long time.

Crossplay was an excellent addition to the game. I have mates who never would've played this game if it wasn't for crossplay. Also the que times have vastly improved since it's been added.
