Does anyone know if mnk support will be added to console? I understand the old issue of wanting to keep it fair, so theoretically to keep it fair with crossplay enabled mnk compatibility should be considered, right? I’m not sure how hard it would be, but I can’t imagine it’s too difficult if CoD, fortnight, etc., did it

Where have you been?
Well the majority of the crossplay features are for consoles only
Console crossplay is all consoles at all time playing together unless they opt out
Console can’t play on PC server unless they queue with a person from PC and this is limited to arcade/QP only
Crossplay competitive will console only and is coming out on July 1st
So I don’t see KB+M being added any time soon.
A block is coded into current OW. I suspect this won’t be there in OW2.
This would enable them to open crossplay to everyone with no rules.

Yea, but I’m more focused on the “crossplay enabled” side. It literally won’t be fair to even casual players to play controller in pc lobbies. I’m decent at apex, but when I game with my friends in pc lobbies I notice a HUGE difference in the enemies aim, movement, etc. I guess what I’m getting at is, if it’s not fair, it’s not gonna live long enough for “blizzard soon”
True, would be nice for them to enable it so people who are queuing with PC friends have the option to use KB+M if they want.
PC has the option to also use a controller if we want to (but aim assist isn’t available on PC)

That would be convenient and smart on their part. But unless it guarantees money, I doubt they’ll add it to their list of priorities.
they’ll wanna get their own “D.VA/Lucio themed keyboards by razer” out before they attempt such thing lmaoooo
get this amazing D.VA Mouse, Keyboard & Mouse pad for your Xbox today for the cheap price of $299.995 (2 of the 3 already exist btw lmao)

Yes, but I’m sure they could find a way to remove the code. I’m well aware of the mnk block, but it seems like adding crossplay would be a bit more complicated than changing/adding whatever coding is needed for mnk support. Until it’s added, console players won’t enjoy playing with crossplay enabled. Especially since they nerfed a lot of the things that made playing on controller manageable (like lowering the bullet size of some characters)
It’ll be F2P most likely. So as long as you’re buying skins… they don’t care how you play.

That’s what I’m thinking OW2 will be, unless they pull a destiny I don’t think they’ll make OW1 f2p, I’m almost 100% certain OW2 will have mnk support on console but by that time I’ll be on pc. I just think it’s messed up that they took away most of controller handicap (other than aim assist) but haven’t given us their reworked thoughts on console support with crossplay. Mnk > controller all day every day
Uh, Google results said that overwatch supposed to support kbm, so I just bought it for $21 today,
To find, when it actually doesn’t, and now I’m stuck with a game I don’t want to play
Controller vs controller for comp is lame, if joypad is not your thing, which I’m sure in many cases it’s not.
If kbm gives you an advantage, good because the more ppl on kbm the better.
If they are bad at it, and love joypad, tell them to practice joypad more, and be even more proud of joypad when they win.
If that’s the reason they are taking competitive gaming too seriously, loosen up the rules and let everyone have fun with everyone like it should be.
The argument of, you should have bought a PC for gaming is getting super old.
