Xbox / PC when can we play only Xbox players?

  • I play on both platforms but when PC is against Xbox there is a major advantage. Someone told me there will be a feature where we will be able to play Xbox only players when on Xbox if we want and play cross platform if we choose.

    Is this true and if so when is it coming?

    It would be a great feature that would make for more fair battles especially in personal combat.

    Thanks

  • Check out the crossplay mega thread for all your answers to this question.

  • @uthervl

    The answer is, we don't know, hopefully more will be announced on March 20th!

  • I'm just waiting for all these bad xbox players responsible for this option for crossplay, to come back saying the xbox players are cheating on xbox only servers. Should be a grand old time. Blaming a console for skill lvl. To funny.

    EDIT: I'm a Plat/Diamond on xbox Rainbowsix seige. Yet some of the players i see on xbox. Are even better then the Plat/Diamonds i know on pc. Its all about skill. Honestly

    Don't be silly everytime a xbox player loses to a pc player its obviously because of "advantage" and hacking and never skill or getting outplayed.

    The guy asked a simple question... yes he could have searched and found the mega thread but he didn't and that's that.
    Its people like you that give PC players a bad name and to be honest the change can't come quick enough.

    If you seriously need me to explain the advantages and disadvantages between both platforms you must be new to gaming.

    I'm not going to feed yet another troll so enjoy arguing with yourself.

    The troll here isn't me dude. I'm using actual topics. All you have is arguments saying i know nothing and "lock this thread" (because its not going the way you want)
    I don't give pc a bad name in fact its all the outliers lying about pc gaming and their advantages and how much of an "advantage" it actually is. Skill matters.
    All these players who think splitting the servers doesn't hurt SoT. See you when the update comes. I wont be on pc servers i'll be killing all the xbox noobs in xbox servers to prove my point.
    You are either just bad or the other person was more skilled. Get over it.

    xbox/pc there is no real dif if you have skill you will out play the other player period. I don't need a mouse/keyboard to be good at this game. lol

    I actually play twitch shooter games. on xbox and pc. You are assuming i'm talking trash about xbox players. I'm not.
    I'm saying splitting crossplay is absolutely not necessary.

    I'm just as good on xbox and pc. So again i say i don't notice any "advantage" i notice a skill difference. in fact when i first started pc gaming last year when SoT launched i was better on the controller. i was missclicking buttons on my keyboard and my aim sensitivity wasn't dialed in yet. Its skill. Like really. As an xbox player converted to pc. I honestly don't see the "advantages" in this game.

    I'm just waiting for all these bad xbox players responsible for this option for crossplay, to come back saying the xbox players are cheating on xbox only servers. Should be a grand old time. Blaming a console for skill lvl. To funny.

    EDIT: I'm a Plat/Diamond on xbox Rainbowsix seige. Yet some of the players i see on xbox. Are even better then the Plat/Diamonds i know on pc. Its all about skill. Honestly

    Here we go again.....

    Do you own both consoles? Do you play via both consoles? If not then you honestly have no accurate take on this subject.

    Actually I do and I play on both depending if I'm home or working away... Just tired of immature responses which do nothing for the community but cause more drama.
    Optional crossplay is coming so get over it.

    I wouldn't say that just yet they are getting really negative responses from this the youtube video announcement of it is over half dislikes all the top comments are also negative over half the community is against it if we go by the youtube numbers its just a small vocal minority that wants this

    If that's the case then only the minority will use the option and the people complaining are way overreacting.

    You sir win the internet.

  • OP asked a factual question. Factual question was answered. 90% of this thread belongs in the mega-thread (or preferably not written at all). Can someone (or everyone) step up, be the better person, and just stop responding here until this thread inevitably gets locked? Not having the last word doesn't mean you're wrong. Just let it go. And now I will take my own advice...

  • 35% players are pc
    65% players are xbox

    xbox/pc crossplay servers pop %100 right now.

    Lets say 25% of people opt out of crossplay servers them being only xbox players.
    You would then have 48% xbox players on crossplay servers.
    Lets say 50%
    you now have %32 xbox players in crossplay servers.

    lets say 75%
    You then have 16% xbox players in crossplay servers.

    Now i don't think that 75% of people will opt out. But the more people that opt out. the more game modes there are. the harder it will be to find a good server. Less people total. making the game even more dead during non peak hours. It will indeed hurt the game. I don't know why its hard to see this. The merge system is already not good. However. Goodluck rare. you will need it. I want to see you succeed. But splitting the community this way was not the option. Search preferences for open crew. (as i been saying since launch)

  • It’ll probably be March 20th when the mega update comes out but not fully positive that’s what I’m thinking though would make sense

    No hes right, stop crying and stop posting like you and the other trolls do the 1000 times i have actually wasted my time explaining the factual and mathematically provable advantages mouse and kb users have over controller users, and that pc’s have over xboxs, which are more negligible except for cheating i grant you, but just stop.

    Rare made a decision, the right one based on their paying subs xbox community, deal with more pc players on xplay servers, or give actual ideas to balance the inputs, which is likely next to impossible. Playing dumb about an obvious issue is like others said just trolling and causing drama and not helping this game progress in a positive way.

  • @a-cranky-eskimo
    You have given nothing towards a conversation about why a kb/mouse has the advantages over controller in this game. You and a few others just insist on attacking me and saying i'm "crying" lol. I own both pc and xbox and don't feel SoT has any advantage over a controller. I really do think it comes down to skill even when aiming. I had a learning curve with my aiming on pc fiddling w/ what works best for me. As would anyone else have that same learning curve with aiming on a controller.

  • @vderickv dude if you dont remember the multiple threads we have both posted on about this thats on you, im not attacking you im calling you out for continung to undermine this issue even when rare already stepped up to fix it.

    Facts. M and kb has undeniable and large enough advantage to warrant this change, just like any other xplay game.

    Even if this causes matchmaking issues for the rare cases of matchmaking from a player in isolated region, making the game unbalanced for everyone isn’t justified because these players need quick matchmaking time or unrealistic connection to servers across the world.

    A free moving mouse using a whole hand that itself can pivot while moving and is much more easily precise at high speed, compared to a joystick on a pivot point anchored to the same device you need to press all the other buttons, will never ever compete at a high level or when skill is match but input devices aren't. except in anomoly cases like Ghost ayden in Fortnite and even then if you watch him hes playing and fighting an uphill battle and has to use luck and overly defensive strategies combined with good tactics and unpredictable aggression to compete. The kid is either cheating or a real BA, but he dosnt follow the rule.

    @deckhands can we just lock this so i dont have to talk to myself all day like the good ol crossplay days... lol..

  • @a-cranky-eskimo

    I wont sit here and compare SoT to fornite. Fortnite has building during pvp incomparable.

    Sure a person who is new to gaming (I'm seriously imagining my mom trying to walk and looking up to the sky and stuff) then yes you're right pc gaming would be easier to start on. But this isn't an advantage.

    Having the knowledge of how the controller works and can walk fluently and can keep a person on target. to me this is skill based and not console based.. Sorry for my opinion based on my own gameplay. :/

    3 programmable keys for any xbox controller.
    With an elite controller you can avoid some of the pulling off the joystick on xbox by programing like "a" for jump and "y" for switch guns on your elite controller paddles.. (I also have a cheap $30 controller from gamestop that has 2 programmable buttons on it that work perfectly the same w/o the notorious stick drift of the elite controller)
    This is the Real issue still lol.
    I would like the elite controllers paddles to be individually able to map to their own paddle so i could have 4 extra mappable buttons along side the other 3 on the controller. (because right now you cant)

  • Is there an ego diffusion button somewhere on the forums? That’d really come in handy...

    Only a all percentage of players have even visited the forums/YouTube. Did you watch Xbox insider?

    It's a sample size that represents the whole community and your not seeing the point that over half of the people that decided to like/dislike, disliked it. Why do something over half the community dislikes? Seems like a losing hand for them and they did say they are still monitoring feedback on crossplay I think fourms and youtube speak for itself no xbox player can give any proof of this advantage or a reason why (thats factually based) to split the community but the other side has giving proof to disprove it by the numbers from ms count of frames to reaction times of players all your technical arguments of why have been put to bed.

    The crys for locking are yummy I can taste the tears very salty

    Well lets see the numbers.....don't talk about it, be about it

  • it’s well known that if people have a complaint they are more likely to make it known.

    The happy ones mostly don’t bother with input due to the fact they don’t need to

    Unhappy people are the loudest hence the 50%

    Not trying to prove anything, just informing

  • @shinobis-mentor sagte in Catching a mermaid back to boat timer:

    ...as this game is fun for many solo players...

    This is not the concept of the game. It is to meet and play WITH people.

  • @d4rk5tar71uk very true I will concede to this point but one side feels more betrayed and hurt than the other should dev promised "no compromise on crossplay" and "no asterisk crossplay" and the other side complained about crossplay when the devs said they weren't going to compromise and bought a crossplay game and decided to complain about it. The devs should stick to what they said and not go back on promises made to the community it's a very slippery slope to continue on and makes me not trust and doubt everything they say now. The least they can do is offer a refund for the bait and switch they pulled and the dishonesty even if your for the crossplay opt out you should have your faith in the dev team destroyed by this. I dont know how they can show their faces to the community on youtube and pretend they didn't lie to our faces they should feel ashamed
