    Pros- destroying PC survivors in the first 2min of the game with nurse

    Cons- Nurse got nerfed so now it'll be 3min

    I'd love cross play, it'd allow for a more unified playerbase and quicker matchmaking times. The big issue I see is the fact that the current game is not up to snuff for something like that optimization wise.

    Pros - Larger playerbase, shorter queue times, ability to play with friends from other platforms. Also a gateway to cross-progression.

    Cons - Issues which affect one platform will now affect all others by association. There are also technical issues to consider, such as KMB support for consoles, sensitivity and FPS issues, and just the superiority of PC hardware in general. However, I think most of the technical concerns can be mitigated by careful planning and adjustments made in advance.

    I would love cross platform, the queue would be much shorter.

    As the others said, pc players would have an advantage, because the game runs smoother there
