Game needs Crossplay

[Zell]

I'd like to see this game introduced to Xbox and PlayStation.

I have a good bit of old friends who just don't PC Game and they want a serious milsim game on Xbox. I think the game would do real good on Xbox and PS if configured right, besides, Xbox and PS now have MnKb support so it wouldn't be too difficult to port over controls-wise. I know there is a lot that goes into porting a game ( I am a developer ) however I believe that the Squad Dev team can do it!

No.

and I'll tell you why...

"aim assist" "crono zen"

aka in all modern FPS games because it so outrageously over tuned...

Easy, don't add it? It's literally just a script to NOT add. Easy.

can you name a SINGLE fps game with crossplay where console players can be competitive against mouse + keyboard without some sort of aim assist/ advantage given to console players?

Overwatch, Apex Legends, Rainbow Six Siege, Warface, Ironsight.. PUBG, Vigor(an Xbox Only game with 0 aim assist)... Shall I keep going?

Apex is dominated by controllers right now dude.

They'd have to give the game full controller support first (It only has partial), but it would be a bit interesting to see console players on this, even though the lack of optimisation would likely make that impossible.

And yet still doesn't have aim assist. What does that say about said skill?

While I see your point, it does indeed have partial controller support as you mentioned. I believe it can be done, I do understand it would water down and compiled a lot of the buttons into menus, however I think using the current radial pie menu would be a good asset to console players if they chose to go that route.

I don't think the UI would suffer TOO much, I could see it being a pain in the ass to use the radial menus, but then again Squad is an FPS, and they aren't exactly known for being complex, I mean what if I had to assign the most interactive keys just by what we have on a controller I guess we can just go with the standard:

A / X to jump
B / O to duck
X / Square to reload
Y / Triangle for something
Right trigger to shoot
Left trigger to ADS / Alternate actions (like if you're using a shovel / bandage)
Left joystick to move (sprint if you press it down)
Right joystick to move your view
Select button to open the map / deploy screen
Start button for obvious menu screen

Maybe you could use the bumpers to access the radial menu, use the Y / Triangle button to access / leave vehicles

But the only thing that leaves out is the d-pad which I guess you could use it like how the WASD keys work when using emplacement / turrets where instead it just acts as a 0% > 100% in terms of turning speed where as you use the mouse / joysticks to get a more precise target.

Naturally there's likely I have forgotten but I can't account for everything.

As for optimisation... I mean honestly I'd happily take a graphics downgrade if it means the games gonna run a hell of a lot smoother and flow better, I'm not one for eye candy

Do you really think Squad would make it through the likes of the Microsoft verification process to be allowed on the XBox ecosystem?

..if a game has aim assist which is needed for console, even if it's toned down then that means a script can access it. Even with it being included in the game, people can create their own code for a game to do so.. example, aim @ player21-head-hitbox.

Wouldn't Squad run like S**** on consoles ? Would need serious optimization first.

Isn't the PS5 equivalent to a 3700X with a 2060 ? or even slightly weaker ? Would run but not great.
