How many of you turned off Crossplay?

On PS4, turned it off after first day. Combination of bad console optimization, felt more laggy/glitchy when crossplay on, and nonstop bad experience with teammates from other platforms.

Why would I turn it off? More people to play against.

I leave it on for faster queue times. My games are still all over the board regarding the skill of players. Some matches I get destroyed, other matches they are lucky to get 2 gens done.

I'm a PS4 killer main. I gave crossplay an honest shot, but I turned it off for when I play killer. I leave it on for solo and SWF survivor for faster queue times.

There were a few reasons I turned it off.

1. Performance issues. It's well known that this game suffers from FPS issues on console, moreso for killer specifically. I found that performance was even worse playing against players on different platforms. For example, trying to play Pyramid Head in a crossplay match on Lery's led to getting about 10 FPS and being unable to even see anyone when they would turn corners. Just awful.
2. Display names. On PC, people can change their display name to say whatever they want, while PS4 players are locked into using their gamertag. I know people on PS4 can change their gamertag whenever they want now, but that costs money after doing it once, so that's a barrier that keeps people using their same names. This is important to me because I like to dodge lobbies that have players that I know are obnoxious in them. I can't do that against PC players when they can change their display name to whatever they want and I can't see their profiles.
3. Queue times. My queue times have always been instant no matter what time of day it is as a red rank killer main on PS4 prior to crossplay, and that hasn't changed one bit without it. I just press triangle and I get a game. Until I see a significant increase in queue times, I'm keeping it off.

I've never turned it off. More variety of players and almost instant queue times.

Forgot to add my waits are also short with crossplay off - only a minute or two for killer or survivor which is wicked nice.

I generally have crossplay on at all times. But I am growing increasingly frustrated with console teammates that are really bad. Killers tend to tunnel them because they're so weak, often resulting in an unwinnable game. I've had a few killers tell me that in after game chat.

This is also an issue with PC players because potatoes still exist on PC, but... not to the same extent in my experience. I also very much dislike how I cannot communicate with console players after game, so may end up turning cross play off eventually.

For me, end game chat is part of the DBD experience, whether chat is negative or positive. It's great and it can be really funny sometimes.

A part of the experience is lost when playing with others from another platform. No communication - as soon as you die on the hook, escape, sacrafice all survivors etc - that's it. That's just weird to me.

My cross play is off and my queue times are fine. Im on xbox

What does cross play have to do with your reputation?

I see that a lot from my PC teammates as well lol. It isn't just a console thing. I bet that still happens to you with strictly PC players as it always has been. The problem is bad matchmaking and easy ranking putting people too high up from their skill level. Stop blaming platforms when bad players just simply exist in DBD.

When I turn Crossplay off DBD connects me to the wrong server so I'm forced to keep it on all the time.

It’s off because the performance problems as Killer.

What kind of rank were you in?

When i'm playing survivor i turn it off, console killers can't keep up with PC players since the fps and controls are so much worse.. Also, i don't want to be rude or something, but when i play in red ranks with survivors on console, they seem like a rank 10 lost in red ranks.

When i'm playing killer i turn it on because i know i am alone and i don't have to rely on teammates + faster queues

I still haven't turned it off and I prob never will. Just happy to play with more of the community, and get better play time. Just really wish consoles got the endgame chat!

I have it turned off for when I play killer, idk why but most of my hits which should connect just don’t, I’ve never had an issue with survivor crossplay

(switch player btw)

I have left mine on. I play ps4 and my wife on xbox. Is their anyway we can talk to one another? A 3rd party software of something we can download

Its cool being able to play with the wife but can't communicate
