Is cross-play for sure happening?

shorter queues doesn’t sound too bad, but one thing I’m wondering about is the FPS difference. Won’t it be harder for people on console to go against PC players? Unless they have some sort of plan to balance it out, but balancing has never been their strong point lol. I could be wrong, but I’ve just seen a few games get messy due to cross-play.

Cross play between consoles would be fine. With PC would be terrible.
Crossplay with everything besides mobile has been confirmed. This feature can be opped out of if you don't want to deal with the resulting balance issues.
My thoughts exactly. I’m hoping it doesn’t go that route.
Oh so it’s optional? If that’s the case, that’s fine :)
Yep, it's happening...
exactly console vs pc would be crazy , idk why but pc players tend to be more competitive in everything they do , so i hope they balance it out because console vs pc has always been a issue in games esp on "fortnite"
Lmaoooo yeah fortnite is in it’s own league for cross-play gone wrong. Wouldn’t want that to happen to DBD. It has enough [BAD WORD] to sort out already lol
lmaooo your right!
As long as console players can opt out of playing against PC players...
It is and has been happening for quite some time. I've been playing with console users for months as apparently indicated by the little 'world' logo over their names.
What???? It’s already been introduced? I thought it would be at the end of 2020 & there would be more talk about it, if it happened??? ..I’m so confused 😐
That would be the work of a hacker
The devs would have to implement the new MMR system first so we can figure the time table for it then
I'll take fast queu times with pc players over 10 minutes waiting to get in a match
I use controller for pc for 1000+ hours and yea flashlight only works when they're breaking pallets for me and can only bare to play doctor/myers/wraith/trapper, anythings without range.
I think that's WINDOWS STORE.
Personally i look forward to kicking the crap out of pc players. Bring it peasants.
Why? It's hardly a disadvantage to play survivor with a controller. You lose precision with your camera placement but gain precision in movement direction. A few of my friends on PC actually play with a controller because they prefer it.
The only real disadvantage console players have is controlling killers like Nurse and Huntress. That's not something that would be made worse by crossplay, though, because PC survivors don't have much of an advantage over console survivors.
The only other thing I can think of is that PC players should have more frames, but that's not enough to make forced crossplay terrible.
As someone who plays on all Platforms, people who’ve only played on Steam or Console are making it sound like there’s going to be a huge difference but from my experience it’s about the same aside from no one on console plays Nurse and it being slightly easier to 360 lol.
Just have crossplay with console, don’t need people with pc ruining things with hacking and doxxing
PC's will perform better than consoles. They just have better hardware. A person trying to play a game at 30 fps vs. people at 120 fps would be a substantial disadvantage.
The only problem i see there is, when someone choose to not play with other consoles/PC, they will have a even higher queoe time than now since most people will turn crossplay on, which results in less players for the console than before.
I was playin. Ive played on both too and the only difference Ive seen is fps drops on console. 1 game in like 10 is practically a thrown game cause the fps gets so bad. And yeah the 360s. Otger than that i think its fine
On fps maybe, im not sure how true that is with a game like this. I guess time will tell
This game isn't that dissimilar to an fps. Both can have massive swings from tiny mistakes. The person with lower frame rate will make more mistakes.
I just dont know that thats true in a game where pinpoint accuracy isnt required. Deathslinger, huntress and nurse being the obvious exceptions since they require pinpoint accuracy. BUT ive nevercplayed crossplay on a game like this before so what do i know. You might be right
I haven't either. So I can't say definitively that it will be the case. But it's the logical outcome to me at least.
PC Nurse against console survivors lol. They can't team us up against PC-players that would be so unfair.
those were windows store players.
attaboy, not afraid of going against PC players. <3
