PC vs Xbox - My Experience

@pirateping It's irony for sure =)

@cpt-toothpick Your post goes to nobody, I don't advocate for imbalance, I like fair play and equal ground. On pc you can play either on kb/m and on a controler, but xbox cannot do the same, it is a very straightfoward implementation that could be difficult on hardware, but I absolutely don't tolerate behaviour from people that think that lack of options for fair play is a non-issue.

You can take your posts and bickering somewhere else.

@urihamrayne Hey im not saying its fair. Im just saying their is an option for people that think its unfair.
Also lets face it most of the SoT community is not acctualy speaking on this forum and just trying to enjoy the game for what it is. Its not perfect no, but their is options and right now K/m support is not on the table as an option.

@cpt-toothpick

Why not ask developers to give a balanced option. May it be separate servers or more balanced adjustements? I think it is totally ok to ask for it.

In the end it’s a game we want to play together and for me it’s more
Fun when it is balanced. There is no fun in winning against a player with disadvantages. I am also for different servers/instances for different players with different experiences. So you get equally good opponents. No fun in robbing a noob.

@pirateping I don't discriminate anyone wether they are PC, xsobbers or they are at a disadvantage, 1 man or 4 man, untill im legendary their booty is mine. If they can bring up the xbox to be on the same level as pc thats fine, But don't try to hinder PC down to their level just so we can have it fair.

It's like saying to the gifted player in a sports game, hold back and let the less gifted players feel good aswell.
About the fun part, me and my crew have loads of fun sinking xboxers, we usually see it really fast if they are, and then we start mocking them abit while we dance around them like ballerinas. And let me get this clear we are not mocking them because they are bad, We know they are at a disadvantage with controllers and they are not use to be playing against PC players.

We mooking them because they choose to play on an inferior system that WE personaly think it's bad for our gaming market, besides one thing, and that is to ease of use and getting new people in to gaming. Think off it like a motorcycle is what we aim for, but they are stuck with a pacifier in 1 hand and the other, a ordinary bicycle, and refuse to chance to the motorcycle.

Why do we mock them? well if we show just 1 player out of 10 that the grass is greener on the other side we have made a diffrence in the right direction toward games that is not holden back by the lackluster performance off the console market. Insteed of them making the games with the power of our current PC technology and then tone it down for the consoles.
Insteed of PC having to force it self not use its fullest potentional, just because the money is bigger in the console market, and thats only because it's easier to use. press start grab a controller and play. I think that if more people come over and learn what PC can offer to gaming it would only benefit us core gamers that love it so much and want the best possible games, better UI, Graphics, Gameplay, new stuff that is not restricted to only having a controller to control the game with.
I could go on and on with this but im getting more and more off topic. Belive it or not im not trying to offend anyone.

Last but not least, Why not ask developers to give a balanced option? Well it's not as simple as that, sure we can ask but it would not change the fact that the only balance they can make is to nerf the PC community down to the same level as the console users. And that only proves my point even more. PC is being held back by the consoles.

pewh,, this was way way longer then I wanted to make it, most of it, just me ranting so if anyone thinks its interesting or not thats fine.

@daddy-sanctus can’t wait for pc players to claim it’s their IQ that is the advantage hahaha, I’ve played on both and your bang on, I was shocked at how easy aiming was and could win 9/10 shoot outs vs controller . Would be nice to make chat pad work with Xbox and maybe mouse and keyboard compatible on Xbox although my big man hands prefer the ergonomics of a controller. If rare can even up a shoot out and sword fight cross compatible will open many doors for future gaming and give Microsoft a huge boost being able to use pc games .

@snipercondriak Or people can just switch to PC and they don't need to change anything, And you with your big manly hands can go buy a keyboard to fit thoes manly fingers. ^^ All sudden we fixed it all.

@cpt-toothpick

xsobbers! Not Discriminating? I‘ll take it as an autocorrect :)

I myself play on xbox. I am not the biggest gamer and I do not take it that serious. Also I do Not
Complain about other players be it on
Pc or xbox to be better than me or having an advantage. I will try
To defend my treasure/win against both and take it as a challenge. And if I lose against someone my time is not lost and I don’t start complaining, but I do understand players who feel different and are asking for some
Kind of change.

The choice to play on a xbox can be manyfold I wouldn’t be judging on that to much.

But I will drop out of this discussion now. I do understand your points to some degree even if they are not mine.

According to the usual suspects, this thread should be flooded by now by PC players claiming there's no advantage whatsoever and to just git gud.
I've yet to see them, just like i didn't see them in other similar threads, aside from the classic trolls baiting a (extremely easy) reaction.

As far as i'm concerned, crossplay should at least be optional: the ground is never gonna be fair, no matter how.
The only instance in which crossplay wouldn't be an issue, is in a PVE only game.

However, as far as Microsoft is concerned, crossplay is the best thing ever and of course one of the selling points of this title.

I wonder who the developers are gonna listen to...

@cpt-toothpick I didn’t realise that having a small mind would fix the problem 😂

Maybe its inaccurate way of looking at it, But thats how we look at it and if you can counter our argument why we would not get better games besides a money issue then by all means @snipercondriak and @Evasive-Envy
does it matter if it's a large majority? does it make my point invalid? @Evasive-Envy

@Evasive-Envy do you call a formula 1 racer a gokart racer? or rather do you call a gocart racer a serious racer compared to a formula 1 driver?

We all define alot of things in our world on how serious someone is by their "commitment" to stuff, You are not a elite soccer player just because you join your local home town soccer team for example. Well I feel the same way with consoles vs PC users, we care about the games we play we want them to be the best they can so we try to use the current hardware that our world can offer to have as great experiance with can with a game, while most console users just want some games to play to relax and kill time for a few hours.

@pirateping Xsobbers was just a funny word I came up with on the go :P

@evasive-envy who leads the esport market? PC or consoles? Sure their are serious console gamers out their, question is why don't they want to use something that is superior in everyway. They don't want to face Pc gamers using their pro controller skills. Why would tennis players not use a coconut to play with when their is a better option called a tennis ball. Gaming could be so much more but you hinder youself from it and still want to compare you to PC esports gamers?
Ye im gona compair myself to a rocket scientist when im playing around in the backyard. Sure I can call myself a serious scientist.
Or im a hunting expert because I enjoy having a rifle to look at.
our toys do matter, the only ones that say otherwise is the people that can't afford said toy, or take their time to learn how to use em.
Thats what I think, we can disagree and im not counting on you to agree with my statement but thats what I and many others belive.

I can't see a mention of loading times here either. PC players tend to have much faster loading screens. The main one being the ferry of the damned. I thought the whole idea of the ferry was to hold players until the game losing was done, instantly returning the player to their ship when they leave. This is not the case at all as loading does not start until you leave. This gives pc players a huge respawn advantage in combat and, in my opinion, just makes the ship of the damned an annoying failure of a game mechanic.

@durengo-germany I feel bad for ya if you choose to play on the xbox when you got your good PC.. May I ask why? This is my opinion , and Im talking also in general about all games not just SoT and I know who I am, do you? I made this post even longer but I don't even wana bother to talk to ignorant people. Im born in the 1980 I been gaming sins i was 6, my first game was on a atari and later I got my first Nintendo, I LIVED my life for games.

O btw My PC is not Microsoft but MY Operative system is from Microsoft.
