Just ignore him, that is not a solution
The race fix is real simple… you do it per platform.
Crossplay does address the issue as far as being able to have fair fights.
No amount of game balance will fix pc vs console. The only way that can happen is the game would be visually, framerate, and controller locked to console specs with extremely aggressive cheat and macro detection software. Its just not going to happen.
The problem with teleport, or any aiming skills on console, like firewall (work probably as bad as in D2R on console where the skill aim where the enemy WAS), is the lack of control. Many solution would work.
- aiming with the right analog stick would solve both direction and distance, and make the game so much better.
- a quick or a long press on a button would at least add 2 distance of choice.
Unfortunately it still clumsy compared to PC. Warhamner 40k Inquisitor martyr has what you describe its clunky with a controller. Especially when in combat. The ablity to aim movement skills was helpful out of combat but in combat it just took to long to aim the skill especially when you need to avoid one shot mechanics.
I think Wolcen uses the sensitivy of the left analog stick to adjust the intensity (or range) of the skill. I think it’s an elegant solution, since we already have something that uses that sensibility (walk and run). With this, we can maintain the right analog to manually target the enemies and use the already used movement analog to control where to teleport, leap, etc, to. If pushed max, max range. If medium, medium range, if not pushed, the ranged that we already have (if not targeting anything) or to the target selected.
They just need to give console players KBnM option like pc has options for both. This is completely unacceptable and scares me from what else they did to ruin disblo again…?
These problems are exacerbated when playin on HC where every move or missed shot can mean your life and time n items. Its just sad this is even a problem… AGAIN
I dun understand why ppl still dun know what we r discussing , turn off crossplay, giving us m&k did not solve the issue on the controller, just like telling ppl there will be no problem if u dun play the game or play it on pc
But i do agree they should give console players KBnM option
They can just copy the aiming system from Diablo Immortal controller support. I think that’s the same one he is talking about. And other moba PvP console games also use this way for aiming skills.
I also refunded the game before launch, I couldn’t enjoy the game without the ability to aim all the skills, especially in PvP.
any update on this after the NDA?
Not that i have seen. But one brazilian streamer said to me that in the version used to these early reviews, there was no change. My hope is that the changes we are expecting will be made with the day 1 patch. That’s why we must keep beeing loud.
I agree with the first part but second part totally defeats turning off crossplay. No amount of balance tweeks are going to remove the advantages of m&k. So m&k support should never be allowed console other then for chat unless Blizzard implements input based matchmaking. Other wise console players have no escape from m&k players.
I dun think the devs really heard us and trying to fix this issue though.
They acknowledged teleport need fixing on console before server slam and said they will improve it .See what we got?I think your post alone on twitter is not loud enough.
Get a PC or a Mac. Problem solved.
When will a keyboard and mouse be deployed on xbox and ps? I had a really bad time!
It’s not a priority to the devs. They said consoles will support native controls. No guarantee they will ever add it.
They have said repeatedly they arent going to add m&k console. You want m&k you have to go pc.
Today D4 official launch, is this bug fixed or not?
No. It remains the same as the server slam. It sucks…
Great post & video explanations OP.
It’s such a shame that Diablo Immortal has better controller support for abilities like this than D4 on launch.
I want to play Leap Barb on controller but it’s vastly inferior to KBM.
