Where are all the console killers at?
Seriously I hardly ever see a console killer, I dont know what it is but nearly every killer is on PC
I feel I only really see console survivors and even then the majority seem to be PC
I'm sure I'm an outlier again in this matter but I just find it weird. (Btw I'm not saying I never see console players, just really rare like seeing certain killers)

Honestly I feel Iike most console killers turn off crossplay I know I do when I play ranged killers

Few people want to play Killer on Console, here's why:
The controller settings are non-existent.
FPS drops.
Boil Over.
No NVIDIA filters which means the game is extremely dark.
Auto-aim and PC Survivors spinning too quickly.
Sensitivity is too low for some Killers, ie, Blight.
Inability to flick with Killers like Nemesis, Blight and Nurse.
I'm sure other people can name more reasons.

I play a lot of killer on console. There are a lot of frustrating aspects to it (I have less issues on my PS5 than other people I know on their PS4's), but I still find myself having fun. Playing certain killers -- Blight, Trickster, Nurse to name a few -- feels like it's a lot harder than it would be if I were on a PC with M&K, and getting spun by PC players is something I'll never get 100% past, but overall I do pretty well.
When I play survivor, I don't see many console killers either -- it seems like it's always someone on PC.

overall i think console on current gen console aint bad. your average killer like nemmy and legion do just fine.
what blows are the controller settings and lack of adjustments. Trickster is literally impossible.
Nurse and Spirit get NTRd so hard by the auto aim or aim dressing or whatever its called. For some ungodly reason, your killer will have a spasm and attack around the survivor, making you whiff completely.
Wish I could do the moves that PC Onis could, though. You can always tell when you're against a PC Oni

The lack of controller settings is such a huge issue I don't think most MnK players realise. On controller you can't customise:
- Joystick deadzones which is how much you have to push the joystick in order to make the character move or look around. This game has strict deadzones which makes console player's camera movement look incredibly choppy instead of smooth like MnK. This is also one of the sole reasons aiming killers are so hard to play - especially trickster.
- Trigger deadzones which is basically just joystick deadzones but for the left and right triggers. Not as big of an issue as joystick DZs but something that should be customisable anyway.
- (As you mentioned) The sensitivity is too low even on 100% for rapid movement killers like blight and nurse. The sensitivity should go up to double what it is now.
As for other issues:
- While blight and nurse are hit hard by the inability to flick, they both don't compare to how badly hit console Oni is compared to PC oni. Oni needs the flick and he just doesn't have it on console.
- Certain aiming killers being designed in an anti-console way. Mainly looking at trickster who is absurdly difficult on console because of:
- 2 firing points
- Randomised (and in turn being uncontrollable) recoil
- Long throw delay (the time between pressing the throw button and the knife actually taking flight)
- + pretty much everything else that makes trickster harder to aim including the 2 firing points moving inwards over time, the slight movement slowdown to make strafing harder over time, and once again the terrible joystick deadzones. I don't mind him being difficult, but the fact that he has SO MUCH to make a console players life harder I just don't understand.
- Now that im typing this it just sounds like a trickster rant.

Disagree on the Oni thing. You can absolutely flick 90 degrees with Oni on console.

I’m a Trickster main that plays on PS4 :,)

I stopped playing two months ago. I got a new console (Series X), and Series X players can't play against XBOX players because they are different systems according to the DEVs. I have crossplay off because there are too many cheaters.

I'm a blight main on console. I turn off cross play sometime specially if I went up against a hacker. Simply because of the hacker problem the game has. Playing killer is very stressful and not fun and I like playing games that I actually enjoy like Skyrim, fallout and ect.

I usually see console killers in the morning time and then they dwindle away as the day goes on, my guess would be their friends get online and they decide to swf.

Since I was low ranked, I’d be down playing anybody but I think Ive climbed high enough to start facing the players who take every advantage of will give them. Time to turn mine off~

I'm on ps4 and I play alot with crossplay on.

Huh? That doesn’t sound right. I play with Xbox One players on my Series X all the time, and we have crossplay on. We get PC, XB1, PS4, & PS5 Teammates/killers consistently.

Yes, I very quickly decides that effort was no longer profitable

Funnily enough, the Trickster buffs made him less accessible for console, I feel. I remember release Trickster being absolute dust, but I remember him being a little more functional for us.

probably because of the framerate. perfomance just got worse lately

Right here. PS4 Mikey main.

Pretty much retired my Amanda Panda these days on my Xbox1. The frame rate and optimization issues squeezed the joy out of the role long ago. MMR and my own iffy skill agrivated everything further.

Probably have cross play off.

Hello! Killer main on console here ✌
To all the crossplay comments as well: I turned crossplay off once and the queue times were horrendous never did it again LOL.

Artist and Pyramidhead console main here haha, i do fine in majority of my matches, still get spun a little bit though sometimes.

Playstation here. Mostly killer, and once I tried huntress and nemmy, I realized how bad the controls can really get 💀

Play on ps4 here, wish there was an option to have crossplay but just with other console users.

Out off all of those I can only really agree with the sensitivity part as that physically stops you doing certain things as specific killers or hitting some spins. Although I dont think most console users use max sensitivity as it is, at least I cant do high sensitivity anyway lol.
Cant agree with the rest though, maybe that's because I'm not as casual? I just find it odd I never really see them which is a shame as it's nice to drop people a gg or friendly message at times
