Apparently, Modern Warfare will have input based matchmaking across platforms. That means that someone with a KB+M setup on console can play with PC players with the same setup, but a KB+M user on PC can’t be matched against a console controller user.
Wasn’t there a game that did this but people would plug in the controller until the match started and they would just plug there M+K back in? I remember reading about this but can’t remember the game.
I’d rather have full crossplay. Never having to worry about playercounts again and each player has the same game experience regardless of platform and region. Plus of course in the long run one would use the appropriate input device for each game. Would put every gamer on the same level again.
The game isn’t even out yet and we have more to forward to in Call of Duty than we do in BFV..
Even if Battlefield were to introduce cross play further on down the line, I have zero confidence they’ll be able to do it properly and without a million bugs
Hi,
Is it possible that EA are being too aggressive in the pursuit of profit, which caused them to release an unfinished game, with planned Battle Royale mode to capture further revenue, riding on the back of the Fortnite success ?
DICE do have to take some of the responsibility - from the sales, everyone was happy with BF1 (25 million units sold ??), so a modification to this design, for WW2 could have been a winner ?.
I am not too bothered about having major changes in the next game - was happy with all the games from BF2:MC to BF4.
Not even a month. It was discounted within the first week of release, meanwhile DICE were making fun of the critics at their launch party.
I have no faith left in this studio at this point. I’ll see if Bad Company 3 (if the rumor is true anyone) is any good, but if they massacre that I won’t be buying another DICE game again.
Everything they do injects social commentary and their general attitudes towards consumers is incredibly condescending as well. Also, go read Glass Door reviews from former employees and you’ll see a lot of complaints about how the work environment is “extremely political” and it seeps into their game design. We saw some of that with BFV and the game tanked by comparison, but I don’t expect them to learn anything from it.
