>Xbox-PC cross play added to ranked play after extensive testing lead to the conclusion that keyboard and mouse does not have a significant advantage vs controller
What the fuck happened bros, I thought KB/M was the best?!
better players will still be better. And desu pc players aren't very good at games that take skill.
KB/M IS better for games that actually require aim, gears is about bouncing between walls and barrel stuffing the enemy with your shotgun.

Didn't another FPS try this ages ago and stopped because controller players were BTFO by M/K players?
feels unnatural playing on kbm when I used to play it on consoles
Nobody, and absolutely no one in the whole world plays on the PC. It has to be 1% of the population.
Probably only like 8 pc players considering it's only available through the windows store.
they designed the game this way and its not even a fps think mouse and keys are better for tekken or rocket league. some people on this board right now outright prefer controller on 3rd person games

When the game came out on pc you couldn't get into a ranked match since the player base was low not enough people were on to match make properly

Timeline of Gears 4 crossplay
>Game releases: Crossplay is enabled for story and horde PVE modes
>December: Devs put up a week of cross play in unranked PVP matches to test how balanced it is
>January: Devs say the crossplay week went "well" and added crossplay for an extended "trial" to make sure the week wasn't a fluke, crossplay is enabled for the next 5 months for unranked PVP
>June: Devs say that after the trial they are confident enough to add cross play to ranked mode and add ranked cross play
the plebs who willingly install w10 + use the store + buy the game aren't that gud
It really depends on how sensitive the auto-aim is. If console players can hit L trigger and auto lock from anywhere they can have an advantage.

This might be the only shooting game it isn't better so I believe it.
Probably worst example of why kbm would be better. Get back to me when they put a real shooter cross play.

If KB/M is equal, then let console players hook up keyboard and mice via USB.

Shadowrun still has crossplay, they never got rid of it. Although updates caused crossplay voice chat to break.
