Yup this is why I’ll never go pc

Everyone wanted crossplay so bad this is what you get.

It should always be crossplay between consoles only!

Premonition1321d ago

I’m afraid you meant cross play between consoles. No one said they wanted it with PC players

“I’m afraid you meant cross play between consoles. No one said they wanted it with PC players“

Did anyone really think they’d leave PC out of crossplay? We knew this would happen and this is one reason I was against it.

My bros keep giving me so much crap for having a ROG gaming laptop but preferring console gaming ESPECIALLY for FPS games like CoD or BF, and then wonder why this is the case for me.

I have always found FPS games on PC to be so full of cheaters and twitchy 9000 Sensitivity tryhards that I just can't. Their response is always "well...getgud son"

TheEnigma3131321d ago

Fps is probably the worst to play with pc players as far as cheating goes.

Sunny123451321d ago

I play on ps4, and I have some pc friends I like to play with. Though In warzone we encounter cheaters once per 5 match average. I wish there was some better system than sbmm to filter out cheaters. They ruin it for everyone.

demonseye1321d ago

there is anti-cheat software. something cods lack heavily. also they only account ban players on a free to play game..... you know they can make an endless supply of accounts without ever worrying.

StoneyYoshi1321d ago (Edited 1321d ago )

There is a whole account two factor authentication they also need to go through now which requires a unique phone number each time. It mitigates some people but not all of them. So if they get banned they need to buy the game again if they play MP too, create a new account and do another 2 factor authentication with a different number. People will still do it but this helped a lot when they implemented it. CS:GO does this for their ranked playlists.

Low-life cheaters. I just don't get it.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's Scope Was Impacted by Xbox Series S Limitations

Wccf tech writes: "Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's scope was impacted by the Xbox Series S hardware limitations, as developers could only make a game that was 25% bigger than its predecessor."

This is the issue with things like this

Xbox Series X is apparently to MS the worlds most powerful console

However the Series S is obviously a limitation because it’s underpowered and developers have to go for parity.

So what’s the point of the world’s most powerful console if you are holding third party developers back? They aren’t going to push themselves if they have to think about the weakest console.

The issue wouldn’t be as bad if it was just Xbox but you are also affecting the PS version aswell

I think developers need to start just taking advantage of a console and if one of them can’t do X Y and Z then f*** them…why should the others suffer. What’s MS going to do? The bigger the franchise the least chance MS are going to tell them to f*** off. Baulders Gate 3 seemed to have stood their ground and suddenly their “strict” parity rule didn’t really matter. We suddenly got super optimisation efforts for the Series S that got things sorted.

I agree, and the sad part is use normal folk saw it the second they announced their plans.

More info from the author of the article, I think: https://www.reddit.com/r/ki...

Quote:
"1) I was told this info from the producer of the game Martin Klíma.
2) He specifically said the game will have only one mode.
3) And this mode is 4K 30 on PS5/XSX and 1440p 30 on XSS.
4) He said that the game is already running north of the 30 FPS cap so the performance should be stable on launch, much better than KCD1.
5) The limitation was XSS because of the 10GB memory. He said that's why they wanted to make the game 25% larger.
6) Speculation on my part: the output resolution is probably upscaled and the reason why there won't be a 60 FPS mode is because it'll most likely be very CPU heavy, like Dragon's Dogma 2 for example."

Doesn't seem like they're adding a 40fps mode on PS5/Series X for launch even if they can handle it.

Sgt_Slaughter1h ago

I'd much rather have 1440p/60fps or even 45fps. Having just one, even with the Series S in mind, is disappointing.

Remember when xbots were adamant that the series s won’t hold back the gen?

Microsoft just needs to let go of the mandatory parity. Who cares if your grandma doesn’t understand that a game cannot be played on the S. It’s not like it she can buy you a physical game for it anyway. Before buying the game put up a notice that it only works on series X. If you’re buying for a friend-allow for a refund.

Bam. Everyone is happy. Most series s owners are for casuals that want Game Pass anyway and most likely don’t purchase most games.

If the developers want it to run on S, let them figure it out.

“During the event, the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 producer also revealed that on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the game will run at 4K resolution and 30 frames per second“

Another “creative decision” right? 🤦‍♂️
