Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War console players are turning off crossplay to escape PC cheaters

Pc cheaters at it again
As you'd expect, with cheating already coming to the fore, console Black Ops Cold War players are disabling crossplay with PC to avoid cheaters.

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!

[Premonition]

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

[Jin_Sakai]

“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"

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

[Sunny12345]

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.

[demonseye]

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.

[StoneyYoshi]

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.

[Limitedtimestruggle]

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

[BigBosss]

Who the hell hacks on a beta lol

[ufo8mycat]

If usung a mouse wasn’t enough to accommodate for a persons lack of skill, using cheats as well. Just Wow

[Hawk198666]

PC Master Race... More like PC Cheater Race.

[Rikimaru1977]

not surprise at all, this is one big reason why i left PC.

[PurpHerbison]

PC hasn't really had any fun games for years anyway. Way too few in-between. All I do is play old games from a time when it actually felt like a PC game was a PC game. You know, built from the ground up for PC with absolutely zero console influence.

[JEECE]

Shocker that the people who feel the need to constantly insert themselves into discussions that don't concern them and refer to themselves as a Master Race also feel the need to cheat against the people using less effective control methods.

[Yppupdam]

Yup, those are the same clowns that call console gamers "console peasants". what a sorry bunch.

[Jls1]

Never understood the hype for wanting to play against pc, the cheats lol. Alot of the cheating is because of the thick SBMM.

[StoneyYoshi]

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, create a new account and do another 2 factor authentication with a different number. People will still do it but thus helped a lot when they implemented it.

[TheRacingX]

I've never understood the cheating....who are you fooling? only yourself....and how fun is it to win 42-1 every game knowing you dont have the real skill to do it? you enjoy ruining someone elses attempt to relax and have fun for a while? its sad that these are the values and morals people adhere to nowadays.....

[XxINFERNUSxX]

I play on PC mostly and it should be separate. No matter if consoles use a keyboard/mouse, cheating will be there not just in this game but all PC games. That and also PC has the advantage of much higher FPS sometimes triple that of 60fps.

[slayereddy]

Devs should make Crossplay an option to deselect PC so console players can play together, or the game should detect a controller and put those players together just for those who do not want to play with keyboard and mouse players, this is because I think consoles will soon have games that will allow them to use keyboard and mouse if they choose to...or just give players a way to avoid hackers.
