This discussion is wrong and completely oblivious to the actual problem. If I'm on a pc and want to use a controller I'm in the same camp as Xbox players. Just add an option to limit the control scheme. People that want to use controllers are grouped. People that want to use k/m are grouped. If we are looking at the controller as the limiting factor then make that the option ie, the controller only games and disable the keyboard mouse.
This doesnt address the fact that alot of Xbox players dont want to be matched up with PC cheats.
Neither do I as a PC player. So that is a different issue.

@commando-slippy & @Khol-Thndrwlkr Since arguably there is no imbalance? The game is literally designed with crossplay in mind from the very beginning. The devs have crafted the gameplay around that feature, the lack of headshots, all the firearms being slow moving projectile weapons, etc are all methods they've employed to close the gap between console and PC people. If there really is a huge imbalance there the Devs will see it in the gameplay data they collect. This game has gone through a huge amount of open beta, if there was a big imbalance with crossplay it wouldn't have lasted this long. I can absolutely guarantee you they wouldn't build a game and let there be a huge population of people in it with a huge advantage. They designed the game around horizontal progression to avoid that kind of thing.
What I think all that points towards is that there is no imbalance, not really not substantially, just people wanting to see one to explain why they lost. If there is a balance problem they'll see it, and they'll fix it, the fact that they haven't put out a big statement on it yet very likely means there isn't an issue. Just a bunch of people using the most anecdotal subjective arguments for something they literally have no actual information on.

@khaleesibot I have had a great time playing Sea of Thieves, however the last two days have changed that. On April 24, 2018 my older brother and I were playing and encountered a cheater. We were unable to kill him and he was as accurate as a Skeleton. He camped our ship till we shuttled it. That was when I researched the cross play and cheaters from the PC platforms. I thought that the guy we had battled on the 24th may have been cheating but was not sure. Now today, the 25th, my older brother, my nephew and I were playing. We were having fun and managed to sink a galleon. We gathered up the loot and then a galleon just appeared out of the air. Our powder kegs exploded just as we had seen the ship. We all died. Just as I came back from the ferry and loading screen, I ran down to fix holes. At full health I was one shotted from far away with the blunder bust. Cheaters... PC players admit they have an advantage over console players on this very thread. I really enjoyed the game but I am glad I only got it on game pass. I'll be canceling that and letting Xbox know why. =( I wish the game the best and maybe when it is all fixed and cross play is out my brother and I will return.

Look up my gamertag on the xbox app and watch my most recent SoT capture. I don't want to hear ANYTHING from PC players. Some of us are tired of our xbox playing experience being ruined. I don't care that you insist mandatory crossplay must exist. Until this is 100% resolved, crossplay should be OPTIONAL or completely turned off. I honestly don't care which.
Even if this is resolved, it still doesn't change the fact that PC players have a competitive advantage. Until that competitive advantage is solved, the same solution applies.
-
@thewolfman321 fact is, even cheap free games that have crossplay have a button to disable. Why on earth would anyone argue to not allow the option. Nobody thought a $60 game would force crossplay.
Furthermore, many people that choose console do so because there are less system advantage situations. Less mod and exploit abuse. I have been gaming for over 30 years. I play on many systems, depending on my mood and game title. I have many, many gamer friends who whole heartedly believe that we need the option.
If you love the game how it is. You will love it more when you are still allowed to play cross platform if you want. Then you can move on to other subject matter, such as content.
I personally have not heard of, or been able to come up with one good reason to force crossplay on everyone. Other than from a financial standpoint. It's cheaper to not have the option button. -
@thewolfman321 the way rare has put the server's together makes the whole, small server argument void. Rare literary controls how many people and or ships are around you at any given time. Seamlessly transporting players from on server to the next. In order to make players encounter one another about every 15 minutes. Here is the article. http://m.ign.com/articles/2018/02/13/sea-of-thieves-doesnt-have-a-maximum-or-minimum-server-size

@levernicus if the game is good enough, PC gamers will stick around. Also read this, understand how the server's work. http://m.ign.com/articles/2018/02/13/sea-of-thieves-doesnt-have-a-maximum-or-minimum-server-size

Cross-play is fine.
Just allow an option to disable it for those who wish to only play amongst their own.
There will always be those that wish to cross-play, so allowing the ones who don't... the option not too, won't hurt anyone!
And save the "splitting the community" garbage... we're already splintered into 6 ship/24 people shards anyway. Allowing the option to not cross-play will not effect anything in greater scheme.

Cross play wouldn't be a big deal is Microsoft followed through with mouse and keyboard for Xbox which they announced last year. This would allow a choice to ether use controller or mouse and key like PC players can currently. Also leveling the playing advantage that PC has over Xbox in certain scenarios.
Even if they don't any time soon. There are many things Rare can do to balance it ex a jump cool down feature.

What a surprise a PC player likes pvp. I've said it numerous times and it continues to hold true. The only players that are fighting against an opt-in to disable cross play are BAD PC players. This is the only game that bad PC players can defeat human opponents. You and your 'get gud' cohorts aren't even playing Sea of Thieves. You're all playing ship sinking simulator and if you get treasure in the process then it's just a lucky coincidence.

What continues to hold true? That you assume that I like PvP because I play on PC, making yourself look silly with your asinine comments as if you know anything at all about my play style? Yeah looks true to me.... Even though I hate PvP and actively avoid it because I love exploring, but I'm sure you're correct because you obviously know everything.

No, for most PC players IMO it's actually for the reasons I stated in my original comment, so try reading it next time. I could say the only Xbox players who want it enabled are BAD Xbox players who can't handle the PvP because they suck. and your comment about this is the only game where bad PC players can defeat human opponents doesn't even make sense.

Actually I'm playing Sea Of Thieves, a non competitive Pirate adventure game. If I wanted a ship sinking simulator I could play Black wake for less than half the price. Wonderful thing about PC is due to all the indie games we can play what we want to play. However this game is unique for it's exploration, so we have to pay it's full price unfortunately.
Basically to conclude I think you're and idiot like the rest of the idiots who complain about PC players being better despite the fact that you're just bad. Harsh I know but that's what I think. I'm very against calling people names (no matter how innocent) but you personally targeted me in your post claiming things you know nothing about, and that is how I respond to people like you.

@commando-slippy Is it possible they were cheating? Yes. Is it possible they were repairing, or had someone dedicated to repairs? Yes.
I nor anyone with authority to do anything (or take your word for face value) about this (or any suspected cheating) wont go on your word alone.
I don't want anything done, but im just stating. I want a balanced game like you and others, and like @Khol-Thndrwlkr said its a feature so whats harm in players like us wanting to turn it on. It shouldn't matter to you guys
I am trying to follow the logic you have in this situation. You were in a ship battle, hit them 159 times, couldn't sink them. Assume they must be on a "superior" platform because of that, wants balanced game.
Sounds more like you want a balance to ship battles. -
A) you admitted you prefer pvp. You complained smaller lobby sizes would affect your ability to do that.
B) there have been zero tangible arguments made by your ilk of bad PC players about how disabling cross play negatively impacts you. Nebulous arguments about splitting the player base is grasping at straws. You complained that less crowded servers with negatively impact your ability to pvp. Smaller servers is preferred by players actually playing the game. The ones gaining rep and gold.
C) I've won far more battles than I've lost. I'd estimate 10 to 1 I've emerged victorious. That's not me bragging because I'm not great at pvp on this game. I'm great at support and I play with GREAT players. I am speaking for those that solo and sloop and aren't very good. Those that have hours of effort wasted because you and your cronies only enjoy fighting other players because you have an advantage and this is the only game you can beat human players at. You aren't playing Sea of Thieves. You're playing PUBG in the Sea of Thieves world. If you were good at PUBG you'd be playing that.
D) you called me an idiot, but my posts are spelled correctly and grammatically correct. Yours not so much. You may be able to use your 'm*********e' skills to wreck me on the seas, but you are verbally out matched. You need to activate your insult aim bot.

@zenzuki
I agree cross-play is fine and I personally disagree that it should be optional.
I’m not saying people like @LogansDadToo (no offense meant, just see you as the person in front with the flag) are wrong about advantages of using kb&m. However what I am saying is that this advantage isn't a guaranteed advantage for everyone, that would be like stating that everyone driving a BMW will be a better driver than people driving other cars.I can understand that some people actually encounter this ingame and see it as an issue, but I’m afraid that the way the facts are presented on the forums has blown the whole issue out of proportion. It’s disgusting to see the way some people depicts an entire group of their fellow pirates as hackers, cheaters and general s**m of the earth just because they happen to use a PC. The discussions hardly ever seem to be about the actual experiences from people, but tend to go towards I’ve seen this video or heard this story or refer to that in theory everyone with kb/m will be better than the ones using a controller. Lost PvP encounters are easily strung up as yet another PC player using his advantage over me, without actually knowing if the person on the other side was even using a PC.
This general scare and paranoia on this topic (same goes for everything about cheaters/hackers) saddens me. It makes me think that making this feature optional would make a lot of people turn it off based on the general vibe they got on the forums. Missing the point that this actually opens up a lot of cool possibilities. Once it’s turned off I doubt a lot would ever give the option a second thought.
I won’t be claiming that it would make the game unplayable since it’s not touching anything on the gameplay mechanics. I’m also sure there will be people that wouldn't turn it off. The split in community won’t happen because of making this optional, however I think that the general toxicity and disrespect in these threads already seem to have created a gap over a minor thing like the platform you play on and the scare to be at a disadvantage.
In theory it would only be a numbers issue, people of equal skill will have a accuracy advantage using kb&m over a controller, if they are equally proficient with their input devices. However no two players are alike, there's no such thing as equal skill because it's not only based on the input device of choice. You'd have to look at experience with this kind of gameplay, time spent in game, size of the monitor/tv, system specs, age, reaction time, quality of eye sight, physical capabilities, etc... Removing one possible advantage won't level the playing field and won't stop people complaining about things being unfair. If you want to mitigate most advantages, you need to assess player skill based on player statistics and match players of a certain skill level together. Only then can you stop this rediculous blame game and open the game for everyone's enjoyment.
These are just my thoughts on the matter, to each their own. While the enjoyment of the game is all personal, we're all on these seas together and each pirate heart beats the same. Jerks can be found on every platform, don't let them overshadow your thoughts. If this is a feature that's truly important for a lot of people, for the right reasons, then I don't see it as something that would hurt the game or the community. I still don't personally agree with this being needed though and would much rather see it balanced instead of split.

The benefits of Mouse + Keyboard are negligible in the grand scheme of encounters
Except when it matters the most, which is in close combat after a successful boarding.
or saving your ship/sailing/ doing anything that requires being able to turn faster than other players to spot/fire/multitask.
I will sort of agree (because raising/lower sails/anchor, turning wheel/sails are fixed speeds) but when i was testing on my xbox with max sensitivity there are a couple flaws that rare should fix.
- allow an option to turn off/on camera snap when using items (ladder,wheel, sails) I could not see an option to not snap back to "center" or default position.
- the "look" speed while using those was reduced severely. (almost back to default speeds)
This I would say is a disadvantage but should have a relatively easy fix.
You can sort of agree all you want but it's self-evident that the kb/m isn't a marginal advantage by any stretch of the imagination. There are significant advantages on the precision alone, the speed just gives it an additional edge. I can look around WITHOUT a penalty while moving through out the ship, there is enough 180 degree turns going through the levels or working the sails that being able to look around easily while moving gives players a significant advantage in awareness in a pvp scenario as well as aiming at players and aiming on a moving ship.
I hit someone in the crows nest during a storm in a different ship while manning the cannons/sails. Screwed up their keg run.
For you it may be, but from the tests I performed the difference IS marginal by +- .5 seconds (when applying to myself alone) I don't know how quick you or anyone else's reaction times are. There are people who are more/less proficient with a mouse that's called a variable. Not to mention you guys keep bringing up "precision" like it really matters. Let me remind you, there isn't critical damage(or has been no evidence) that body shots matter with weapons. I believe that a shot to the head deals the same damage as a shot to the torso. And yes I am excluding AoE damage. You either hit/miss with shots, it sounds like you guys are trying to argue that i can hit you more because i have a finer "surgeon like" accuracy, when it doesn't really matter, i just need to be able to hit you.
*Edited because i forgot words...
You don't need critical damage for precision to matter, the fact is I can zero in on anything faster than a controller based player. I need to look at near immediately REGARDLESS of what else I'm doing. That affords me the opportunity to not only easily look at my surroundings on approach but still hit what I want to hit.
I don't need surgeon-like accuracy but the controller feels like your controlling a tank. Turning, bucketing, hitting the sails, grabbing boards are all significantly more clunky and easier to make mistakes on... while simultaneously being harder to be aware of your surroundings, zero in on targets, and handle any of the verticality on the ships/water.
You're still arguing about just one mechanic, sure if we are both looking directly at each other with nothing else going on a controller is kind of ok... except that situation is like never. Even just something as simple as bucketing is a massive difference being able to turn quickly and aim outside. You can do it incredibly efficiently with a mouse compared to a joystick. That all has to do with speed+precision. Including shooting someone mid bucket because I can actually look around while bucketing easily.
Yes but you can also remap bananas, planks, cannon balls, bucket to "up,down,left,right" on the dpad (sure you lose out on the emotes) to make multitasking a bit easier on the controller.
I could see how yes it would feel like driving a tank. But your trying to compare a device with more limitations to mouse/keyboard. (due to it size and design) 1 option would be to buy better controller (pro controller with more buttons to remap) 2nd option would to ask for an adjustment to the sensitivity sticks so it doesn't feel like driving a tank and more like a truck.
I feel that Rare programming a sensitivity adjustment, and other UI enhances would be more cost/effective compared to getting new equipment and creating two new server types to cater to those who want xbox v xbox, pc v pc, and cross play. -
This thread is a great example of the PC advantage over console. If this dude was on console there is no way he would have pulled this off simply because he would not have been able to move with the same agility and quickness or swap items as fast. Sure its a little karma but ita diminished by the clear PC advantage. Again i play both platforms..
Optionality wouldnt split the community just sort it a bit. If anything it would grow it. The only people against it are the PC players who dont want to lose that leg up they naturally have against people using a console as suddenly they arent as good as they think.https://www.seaofthieves.com/forum/topic/55889/best-instant-karma-so-far/6

@trophy-un1ocked why I am on this thread.
I have four xboxes in my home. We are a family that games together. Monday I asked the kids, both 14, hey guy's log in, let's play SoT. Aww, dad we are on fortnight again. Oh? I thought we were going to sail tonight. Na, we are tired of getting sunken by PC elites. Oh come on kids surely we won't run into another PC elite today. Na, that last dude ruined it for us. He was telling us how we can never beat him on console. He's right, let us know if they do like fortnight. We will play it again later.
With all the arguments that are had on the forums, this is truly my only concern. It was fun sailing the high seas with the kids, we are all in the 30's per level. We sank many attackers, we won more than we lost. Did lots of forts, had a blast. Now I am a lonely captain. Have not logged in all week now.
While people say don't split the community, I argue that it's always been split. Any long term gamer knows this. I have put articles up explaining the way servers work. I have reported cheating. I can't convince the kids to sail though.
I have two gold accounts and to gamepass accounts, as of the 11th of next month I imagine I will cancel gamepass accounts as the only reason I picked them up was for SoT. I wish there were more mmo's on xbox that I can enjoy with the kids. -

@greaseman85 Its a downgrade. The games that have it as an optional feature are all more competitive than this one, and usually started off with no crossplay.
It's not a downgrade. The feature is still there. Giving people the ability to turn it off does not remove your ability to keep using crossplay.
Exactly this. I don’t understand why people equate the option to op out of crossplay with ruining the game? It’s 24 person servers. Also, if everything is so fair and perfect as it is, why are they all so afraid of everyone opting out? If everything is so nice and the majority like it the way it is, people won’t opt out and not much will change. The fact that PC players know we would leave should speak measures alone.
-
Probably because there are many uninformed/misinformed console players out there. In the sense that they "just cant" compete with a pc, so they leave based on that assumption alone.
-
i feel that you are generalizing PC players or placing them all in the same group or mindset that we associate console player with "an easy kill." And that's simply not the case.

There's a saying: "When in an argument, if all you can do is insult their grammar and spelling, then you have lost"
Also idiocy isn't linked to spelling and grammar, so you still are I'm afraid.

@fishst1ck Thank you for elaborating on many of the issues i have been saying all along. There are many factors why players may not be on the same skill level. Bravo +1

@captgraykid I could dude, but he personally attacked me with his own information he made up so I retaliated. If you're upset about my idiot remark I do apologise but your buddy there struck a nerve with his silliness.
-
@captgraykid That is unfortunate. I know there are those PC players that will always talk c**p and attempt to demoralize opponents by saying stuff like that. However, I feel that -especially in this game- you can play on a level playing field, to an extent. But allowing yourself to believe your at a disadvantage and giving up completely (in your kids case) well its not good (not going to get into parenting)
That being said, i can also remember that when i was that age, i would get bored with games quickly and played several games for different periods of time. Maybe they just needed a break?

Yes but you can also remap bananas, planks, cannon balls, bucket to "up,down,left,right" on the dpad (sure you lose out on the emotes) to make multitasking a bit easier on the controller.
Switching items are not all of the multitasking. Considering we are talking about movement and awareness and switching between tasks fluidly depending on the constraints of movement and awareness... I don't even know why you brought it up.
I could see how yes it would feel like driving a tank. But your trying to compare a device with more limitations to mouse/keyboard. (due to it size and design) 1 option would be to buy better controller (pro controller with more buttons to remap) 2nd option would to ask for an adjustment to the sensitivity sticks so it doesn't feel like driving a tank and more like a truck.
Yes a device with more limitations that express itself by limiting on how quickly the vast majority of people can move, look, and react OR how precise they can be. Of course, there are pros with controllers, but they'll be worse compared to pros with kb/m. But the vast majority of controller users are either tanks or sloppy due to controller limitations.
And your ignoring half my argument. Precision is a big part of being able to look around quickly. Sure they can up the sensitivity but it's to the detriment of being able to easily zero in on items and objects creating a more sloppy play style. You can't compensate like you can with a PC, I play with 400dpi, I have great precision, If I want to turn quickly I just whip my arm around.
I feel that Rare programming a sensitivity adjustment, and other UI enhances would be more cost/effective compared to getting new equipment and creating two new server types to cater to those who want xbox v xbox, pc v pc, and cross play.
You're feeling is wrong, your ignoring the precision argument, or lack thereof on a controller when increasing the sensitivity.
It's not two new server types. Its just grouping people by options... so if they are asking for feedback on this option likely they are willing to add an option to the game. So allowing a grouping, which they've stated they try to group people by mic support and other aspects already, they can probably support it.
-
@trophy-un1ocked it comes down to, the kids know why other games have the option. In their words, " Sea of Thieves is cancer until it's been out longer and they fix it ". They are kids, they move on. You will not likely find many children in these forums. Because when something doesn't work for them it spreads like wildfire. All through the school in a matter of days. All the sudden in droves they pick up another game. One that they all enjoy. No amount of parenting will stop it why would I try? It is just a game, and I want them to have fun. If their school friends are on one particular game, they all gravitate to it.
-
You did not unlock the trophy for 'reading comprehension' or 'knowing what you're talking about'.
-
Again reading comprehension is not your friend. I am merely saying that I know that a lot of players are having a hard time on the seas. Generally they are playing solo or sloop and, unlike me, don't have a cadre of great pirates to fill out a galleon to own the seas. I joke that when I'm with my crew I can spend the money before it's in my hands. That's because my crew doesn't lose. It just doesn't. Again, I'm not bragging because I'm generally the worst player at a given time on my galleon. I'm not in the brig. I have a bunch of great players that like playing with me and I honestly feel very bad for those out that that don't. I feel bad for the poor lonely sloops that constantly get messed with by scrubs like you that only play this game to wreck them because you can't wreck any other player in any other game. This game deserves a better class of pirate and I'm going to give it to them.

More importantly when someone tries an insecure cherry-picked retort to a minor detail in a lengthy post they have admitted they are wrong because that cannot defend their incorrect position.

@steelroots55 yeah dude true, but when most of your points are true and you're just pulling things out of thin air, mixed with the assumptions you make throughout without evidence or merit, then there's no point discussing anything with you. Enjoy the game matey.

I'm glad you finally admitted my points all are true, which they are. Thank you. We part as friends.
