@neon-ic0n said in Xbox Next Gen Upgrade?:
@needsmokes Opt-out is only justifiable because how badly this game is optimized on consoles. 1080/60fps could easily be an option on the Xbox One X, yet it's locked at 30 for an unexplained reason; and if load times are too much of an issue, external SSDs are an option. Both of these will likely be addressed with these upcoming consoles.
The Series S/X will be on par with, if not more powerful, than most player's computers. The fps and load times will reflect that (hopefully lol). At such point the only argument is that one doesn't want to play with people who are using mouse/keyboard, even when they're freely able to do the same.
I predict that the Series S/X will be allowed to opt out of crossplay, and few will complain. It will be a matter of people not wanting a desktop experience with their console at that point; they'll want to sit on a couch and play on a TV with a controller instead of adapting their gameplay to a desktop.
The Xbox Series X has already been confirmed to have a state of the art SSD. Opt-out wasn't really justified as the main concern of the community fell on the argument of PC players hack and M&K.
The game got M&K support and the hackers of the game were less than 1% of the population, yet if you paid attention they cried like it happened ALL the time.
Hackers are in the xbox servers. Which is HILARIOUS. I posted some links to some of those posts a while back and I was accused of making alt accounts lololololololol.
@NeedSmokes
I don't actually think anyone specified that frame rates give no advantage. I think the words used were along the lines of that the frame rates were only beneficial towards players with high levels of play and that even those players wouldn't complain about the frame rate issue in the first place. We never said it didn't hold an advantage, we just stated that the advantage is useless towards 99.99999999% of the population because they aren't good enough to utilize it. Plain and simple. Pros wouldn't throw up threads asking for opt out because of frame rates.
Also, I don't see how the new console is going to prevent hacking entirely. Hacking happens now on consoles and I thought the majority of the argument was how the PC just had SOOOOO much over the console.
Series X - Has high FPS, M&K support, SSD which is standard which means that this console has an advantage over PC players now GASP!!!, awesome processor and gpu.
If you guys are okay with this being in opt out then your whole argument about Console vs PC was just a load of bull. Just prejudice against PC players.
Wait, actually nevermind. I think you were one of those that said you didn't care, you just didn't want to play with PC players if I remember correctly. Nevermind carry on.
Honestly why defend your argument when you said the real reason was you didn't want to play with PC?? Just say that instead.
