Console Users - Cross Play
Does anyone know if you have cross play off, does that mean you only connect to lobbies with same gen players (i.e all PS4 players or all PS5 player lobbies) that also have cross play turned off. I'm on PS5 and I've been waiting here for 20 minutes still have not found a game yet, therefore I'm suspecting that its only same gen players that I'm connecting to.

Ps4 and Ps5 (PSN accounts) are connect if crossplay is off, but you can not connect to other platforms.
The reason you wait so long because other PSN accs who turn on crossplay will be mixed in other lobby with other platforms. Which means the real playerbase of PSN with crossplay off will be much, much lower.

that's strange because even when I have cross play on, over 90% of the lobbies I come up against are filled with cross platform players (I could tell from the globe next to their tags).

Probably because of your MMR (rank) and your region. For example:
- Japan region (my experience) will has more PSN players than other region
- Lower MMR has more PC players (for now) due to the game was free last month on Epic store
- Mid-High MMR (old 4-8 ranks) will be more console players, because of no big sale and bad performance issue recently. Therefore, ppl leave and the game is not attracted by new players
- etc.

I know that on Xbox, you can't play with Series X <--> OG Xbox One
I think.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm being connected to the Singapore servers so I would expect most the asian players to be on PS rather than PC although having said this I do come across alot of Chinese players on PC I guess they don't buy PS products and prefer PC instead.
Maybe same applies to new gen PS and old Gen

You only connect to others with crossplay off and it sucks since it's off by default.

PS4 and PS5 are considered separate platforms so you will not connect to a PS4 crossplay off lobby playing the PS5 version of the game. You would need to play the PS4 version on your PS5 to connect with PS4 crossplay off players.

I got an X SeriesX and can't find matches as killer, I switched to a regular XBOX and I find matches quickly.
the DEVs need to add an option to play against PS4, PS5, and XBOX and XSX, but exclude PC players because I have encountered PC cheaters on XBOX even when cross play is turned OFF.

Yea, they must do something about that

That's a shame, why could they just not do cross platform always on + cross play off

Yes this is correct. And the same for PS4 and PS5, unless you run the PS4 version on the 5, but why would you?

I really wish BHVR had walled off the console ecosystem from PC. I really don't like having to play against PC survivors with a controller as a killer, but what am I gonna do. They can hug loops extremely tight, there's subtle cheating, stretch res, people that have filters where the red stain burns the retina out of my ######### eyes when I see it on their stream etc
