Just now, I was in a match and forgot to check. So while playing attack on Gibraltar, I am besides myself as to why one dps has less than 800 dmg… and the match is almost over as cart went almost nowhere! I press P to check… and it’s crossplay… a console player.

This is literally my experience 18 out of 20 matches. Those saying they don’t see many console players must have like GM+ MMR where console players don’t get matched with them very much. But at Diamond (I’m pretty mid), there’s a console player in nearly every match. It’s gotten to the point I can’t leave to find another match because they are always there.

No Diamond player should ever get matched with anyone who goes 2-14 with 900 dmg as dps in two rounds. There’s just no way those people can be at the same MMR. I’ve never even seen Bronze and Silvers do that bad when I took over my girlfriends account.

I don’t even know why all the console players are whining and getting all butthurt that a PC player would like to play with and against other PC players. Why the hell do they care? Console players get to turn off crossplay, and they are cool with that, but if PC wants to turn off crossplay they cry about it lol.

Crossplay is the sole reason I stopped playing. And it’s been 100x worse over past couple months. Every single game is a one-sided stomp whether you win or lose. Can’t remember the last time a match we remotely even. It didn’t used to be like that. And the common denominator is crossplay.

There either a controller player (or multiple) going 4 and 14, or there’s a XIMming console player. It shouldn’t be controversial to allow PC players (just like console players) to disable crossplay. And I don’t even know why console players would be mad about it.

All this 100%. In an older thread I commented some of this and there was even someone who said I should be banned for even suggesting to avoid console players. Why are they SO offended? I’m offended for having my matches be dumpstered unless there is the 10% chance it’s a XIMMing cheater.

And yes, XIM is cheating. But Blizz allows that just like smurfing.

PC has actual aimbots…

[QrowxClover-1881]

Yes, and they’re FAR more rare than a xim.

Now imagine what it’s like for me in masters for DPS and Support on console, it’s literal hell man. Screw these deadbeats who need to cheat to do good and hopefully Blizzard does what Infinity Ward and Ubisoft has done to these pathetic losers.

True, but Xim is literally MNK with aim assist which is incredibly broken and gives a massive unfair advantage.

thatk’s op now I can leave every game that has switch/console users lol.

And the paradox is that, say in 3v3 where you might find two console players, it’s a 3 stack and suddenly it’s tipped in the complete opposite direction as it’s a guarantee at least one of them is XIMMING.

Crossplay only ever hurts PC players because either the console-having team is playing with friends and dumpsters the match “for fun”, or they are XIMMing and cheating to win.

Why are they SO offended?

Don’t ya know? They want to be able to do it, but don’t want others to be able to. It’s a super weird attitude to have. I mean I’m a console player (just not for OW) and it makes total sense to me if I’m allowed to turn off crossplay other platforms should be as well.
