X box vs PC players

[T_T_Tobin]

I maybe wrong but at this point in time it appears X box players have an unfair advantage over PC players... we need servers for both

[Tongan_Boy01]

Wdym, pc is far more superior, could you elaborate on why Xbox may be having an unfair advantage?

We do not need separate servers. Xbox players has no advantage over other players.
If you are console player, you can switch off crossplay and play only with players from your platform (but that will obviously make queue time much longer).

I use a joystick and feel like I have more of an advantage than xbox players, and to top it off with trackir or VR for simulator where I have even more an advantage. I have seen some pretty cracked console players though.

Curious to also know what unfair advantage console players have.

Console players can lock onto planes in ground RB even through mountains, they can do this in any tank at any BR
I dont know if they can do the same in Sim but it is an advantage

You cant lock onto planes in GRB on the PC unless you have radar

console players have can lock onto planes in ground rb, even through mountains without need a radar. Imagine using any aa under 6.0 and having autolock, really fun xD

Console players cannot lock onto targets in ground rb, you're probably getting mixed up with ab somehow. I use console and we get absolutely no lock in whatsoever. Air rb, there is a bind to "track" a target but it so much as turns the plane in their direction, no leading on the target.

No we can't, there's no lock on whatsoever, and definetly not through mountains, are you saying Gaijin is purposely giving console players cheats?

Gamers back in the 90s and early 2000s: "We like fun and wished we could share it with our friends on PC and other consoles".

Gamers Today: "Horrible, these console players have a different input methode, this will make perfect Balance IMPOSSIBLE. We have to BAN THEM TO THE SHADOW REALM. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE".

I really hate gamers today. They ruin everything good about gameing for pointless things like personal performs, political propaganda or because they can´t suspend there disbeliefe, whining about things being not "Realistic".

So weak and pathetic.

of course, you can lock on enemy planes, e.g you can lock on to an aircraft in a missile aa without radar and the aircraft wont receive a radar warning. The locking on pretty much guides your missiles to the enemy.

Here is a video if you dont believe me :)

here is a shorter one where you can clearly see someone using kbm on console with aim lock to fire on an aircraft without using his radar so the plane doesent get a rwr warning.also he tracks him through the mountain

Console players get access to the Target lock and track target abilities while in RB, Its disabled for PC players.

Then maybe you can explain how this guy tracks an plane through a mountain while using kbm on a console and fires an rocket locking onto the plane without using radar, so the plane doesent get any radar warning?

This is so silly. Plug an XBox controller into your PC if you want to. It works great. Best of both worlds for a lot of titles esp. console ports like the Jedi games, GTA, etc.

I like using hotas for sim mode, but I don't have rudder pedals. So maybe the XBox controller would be a more aircraft-like experience with rudder on the top triggers, as opposed to the wonky twist-axis rudder option on a flight stick.
