So we play on 2 Xbox Ones and one PC Power Rig.
I suck at PVP but I don’t mind cause the PVP in this game is like Minecraft/Roblox. It’s silly and goofy and fun. Not something worth Nerd Raging over...
I have done my own research and noticed the following.
My 14 Year old (PC) and the 17 year old (Xbox One) can jump on a Galleon, kill all 4 crew members repeatedly while eating a bag of Funions.
Although PC does seem to have a Graphical, Mouse/Keyboard and “Speed” advantage my research clearly shows their PVP domination has more to do with their age and countless hours of gaming more so than any Hardware advantage.
I’m 45 and can’t even keep someone from climbing the ladder while I’m standing over it! (I’ve been playing games since the Commodore 64 so it’s not like I’m new to this).
However, when it comes to ship to ship combat (common sense, a little planning, bit of strategy) I’m the best in the house.
So does PC have an advantage? Yes, yes it does but is it so monumental that it ruins the game or cross play should be removed? Absolutely not....
If it bothers some so much just go get a PC.
Am I better if I use the PC? Yes, Yes I am but I would rather be “Meh” on the couch than “Good” hunched over a mouse and keyboard.
