PC Crucible Vs Console

I have been on my Xbox today and I can say confidently the console matches that I have played have all been a terrible experience with people clearly typing hateful messages on keyboards and not controllers judging by how fast the messages come out. I believe encountering people using Xims has become a more common thing, averaging at least one person per game of control. In contrast to this playing on PC, I find people are far more respectful and the playing field to my experience has been more fair. I just wanted to put this here because I have played multiple games in the past hour on console and I have been conveniently error coded twice after solo ulting someone 🫤, yet on PC I have not encountered anything like this in the past 2 months of playing. Maybe I was just unlucky but from coming from PC and dabbling on console I can see a clear difference in people attitudes and how they play… Just wanted to put this here to see if anyone else has noticed this? 😁

  • I wouldn’t be surprised if a good chunk of PC players were cheating. The rule several times that I was playing today where I was sliding through a double wall peak area and would get headshot the moment I showed up on their screens

Yes console text chat is incredibly toxic, I just turn it off for PVP. 99% of the toxic chatter are just bad at pvp and wanna blame someone else. Don't let it get to you pal.

      • You can buy a controller attachment that's generally called a 'chat pad'. It's just a little keyboard that clicks in to the bottom of your controller to type on. Not necessarily is every fast typer using illegal input methods. Certainly don't mean to excuse their poor behavior, though.
