XBOX PLAYERS VS PC

@ren2ten

Any FPS game she will play with the keyboard and mouse, should see how much better she is than the competition in games like COD or battlefield. Other stuff like Assassins creed she will use her controller.

@ren2ten

She uses a corsair k70 and a corsair gaming m65, so just an ordinary gaming mouse and keyboard combo. What matters is her adapter, the Xim 4, which allows her to use the keyboard and mouse.

just adding this for those who don't understand the advantage, since mods keep locking the 100 other forum topics about this subject

Everyone keeps trying to defend the advantage that pc users keep saying they don't have. You have a distinct advantage plain and simple and here are a few reasons why.
1.

precision device....a mouse is a precision instrument that works on all axis's simultaneously. as for the thumbstick, not so much...its clunky and moving just a fraction of a distance, or a medium distance, is tedious at best. definitely playable and enjoyable though it will never match a mouse's precision...never
2.

keyboards and or one handed gaming keyboard, with macro functions....no matter how much you can switch the assignment buttons on a controller it will never match the speed, customization, nor macro's you can assign to your keyboard on a computer. The only way a controller shines above a keyboard for movement is in the sensitivity department. there is no sensitivity on a keyboard its either a pressed button or not. So yes its hard to walk very slow on a keyboard, but hey in combat I love to walk very slow!
3.

order of operations...meaning input a user can do in succession.
here is an example: fire a weapon, select banana, eat banana, select weapon, select banana, eat banana
1.controller....squeeze trigger, hold left bumper, press up, let go of left bumper, squeeze trigger, hit y, squeeze trigger, hold left bumper, press up, let go of left bumper, squeeze trigger, hit y
2)keyboard and mouse.....hit left mouse bumper, hit a single key macro
even with out macro's the simple act of having to select a banana mid combat is tedious compared to a keyboards functions

I do not need to go on....these three thing alone combine to give the pc user a very distinct advantage. I could explain how about dpi, unlimited machine power, cheats, etc....but I don't need to these few thing can and do give each pc user extreme advantages in combat! Every pc player I met in the game before I quit told me that he felt it was unfair. They told me it was just way too easy and boring. Our running joke while playing was send the secret weapon! (pc user), cause they could demolish full crews of xbox players with out sweating.

It is cool that you find using kbm easier to use. However, this game it is not needed. You do not do any precision controls like a fps that will give you an advantage. All the weapons are so clunky and imprecise that there is no use for it.

The only advantage a keyboard has over a console player is the ability to text chat. That’s it. We aren’t talking OW, destiny, halo, cod.. we are talking a pirate game with really c****y combat controls.

We completely dominate pc player with us playing on console. It is a skill thing with your input device and how well you manage it.

@ershin666 I have no problem playing with pc players it's not that hard to beat them I would like to see m&k support for crossplay games though. I could see it being a bigger issue for casual gamers but for people who game a lot and hare half decent with the controller it's not too bad but that's just my experience.

@ca2or

Roommate*, let's just make that clear haha.

She accomplishes this using the Xim 4, as people have said, I already pointed this out. Highly recommend it.

For XBOX player, learn "CrossHair placement" for know how to play in a FPS Without having to move your crosshair. That can help you...

@ren2ten Let’s be real here. You press the bumper, and aim at the banana. You get the banana or whatever you want. You hold Q, you aim, you get what you want. It is the exact same, there is no extra step. You don’t win because you play with a keyboard more often than a controller. I’m not saying there isn’t an advantage (as I said before with ONLY camera movement). But if you win, it’s mostly because you’ve outplayed your opponent. The argument that there’s an extra step when using a controller simply isn’t true. Again, I suggest that people practice combat with the sword, and raise controller sensitivity. I’ve had plenty of success playing solo with a controller, and been beaten plenty of times playing with a keyboard. The only difference is camera speed and this gap can be improved by controller sensitivity adjustments. Easy.

For everyone reading this thread complaining that they should divide the community, practice combat. There are plenty of sword tricks, and the blunderbuss is pretty decent at decimating enemies. And please remember that there are some players that are simply better. It may not be that they play with certain equipment, or even that they’re hacking. Maybe they’re just better at the game. And remember that it’s not just about killing players, it’s about sinking the ship.

PC doesn't always win, it's all down to the skill of the players, I would say having an option would be nice, I really don't think it is necessary
