Settling the Controller vs KBM debate with data

The major flaw in your thought is that ranked and sweaty Halo is only a minor subset of Halo’s player base. The vast majority of people who play just want to chill on a couch after work and relax.

I used to be into competitive Halo back in H2, H3, and until reach killed it, but I’m too old to keep up with these cracked kids now to be perfectly honest. I still play ranked from time to time but I rarely enjoy a sweat fest. More often I just want to wind down after work with friends.

What are you, 15? You talk very juvenile.

Same here. I cannot remember the name of the place, I was in my 20’s back then but it was in a mall about an hour away from me. They held Halo 2 tournaments, would mainly give out EB Games gift cards. Fun times.

If it sounds juvenile you might wanna think on it, because its a reflection of you.

A reflection of me? Your accusations is a reflection of yourself, they’re “your” accusations.

It is the simplest “solution” and solution is in quotes because it is not a solution, it is a workaround. I’ve repeatedly said I am in favor of it as a workaround but would like to see an ACTUAL solution to make Crossplay more balanced.

Yes you keep saying that and I keep repeating that a workaround is not a solution. Doing that does nothing whatsoever to FIX Crossplay. I’ve also repeatedly stated that I support adding the separate input modes. That doesn’t make the workaround any less lazy when we are talking about FIXING Crossplay.

This is exactly why no one is taking you seriously. This is in no way even close to anything rational. You just make -Yoink!- up to change the argument to something that gives you a position to argue from even though it is completely unrelated to the conversation. There is a name for what you are doing. It’s called a Logical Fallacy.

(Pc payers) Game should be on all platforms.! We’re all gamers!

(Xbox) ok we can share tham the more player’s the better right?

(Pc players) That’s not good enough Consoles players are peasants make their games cater to the Pc not their out dated Xbox consoles.

(Pc player) Remake tham so it’s made for mouse and keyboard players. All Consoles and controller players are just cheaters so they just need to get good.

(Pc players) Just look at my favorite Pc gaming sites for the true on Halo there data is not biases at all.

Yeah, all gamers getting to play together regardless of platform is dope!

Yay!

What?

Again, what? If anyone is screaming cheater its console players. Calling out a game imbalance is not calling people cheaters.

Halo Tracker is a PC gaming site with bias data?

Are you feeling ok? Maybe you should go talk to your therapist.

Haha this is great.

(PC players): Halo is cool. Can we have Halo on PC?

(Console players): Sure.

(PC players): This is great thanks, but it would be better for us if your controllers actually sucked.

(Console players): Why can’t you just play with other MNK players instead of making our lives hell?

(PC players): No no no, you don’t understand. Your controllers are too good, need to make them bad pls.

For what it’s worth, I play on PC with controller. Just thought this was ridiculous but accurate.

I mean it is what you said, i’m just paraphrasing.

It’s what he said, no?

Most of what i wrote was what i have been reading on the 343 Pc vs Consoles froms. And is my opinion not fact.

Overdramatic much?

(PC players): Halo is cool. Can we have Halo on PC?

(Console players): Sure.

(PC players): This is great thanks, but it would be better for us if your controllers didn’t have an in game advantage. Can we look at changes to balance it? We don’t need controllers nerfed and would be happy to KBM buffs that would accomplish the goal if possible.

(Console players): KBM PLAYERS WANT TO TAKE AWAY AIM ASSIST AND CHEAT AND HAVE AN ADVANTAGE AND RUIN OUR GAME!

(PC players): No, not at all, ideally we aim first for a solution that solves the problem without nerfing controller.

(Console players): SEE! THEY WANT TO NERF CONTROLLER AND RUIN THE GAME AND MAKE IT ALL ABOUT THEM!

That is the accurate representation of this thread. You all act like we are trying to destroy your experience by not having a disadvantaged experience and even repeatedly pointed out that we would be happy with just KBM changes that balance it if that can be done.

And you wonder why I treat you like an idiot after acting like an idiot.

Thanks for clarifying. I thought you were paraphrasing this thread, not others since you mentioned data collection.

Same feeling i play fiesta only as i am after stupidity. It is a game mode that highlights the benefits of MnK and the benefits of controller. It is stupid but im after fun.

Crossplay/input has exagerated the differences in that game mode which is why i prefer segregation. I dont have to wuestion the input and adjust my playstyle as rapidly

I totally get this view for Fiesta. That game mode is chaos. There are soooo many variables that would be impossible to account for. Balancing the game for normal game modes will never work for fiesta. Separate modes is probably the only solution for that one.

and again i going to tell you crossplay is not broken and not needs to be fix.
is your goal that crossplay most become force for ever or so?
and so what its the lazy solution or in your eye’s its not a solution but for a lot off others its the best one there is since crossplay is a problem in general and it was more better if there was never crossplay then all the problems like cheaters and Controlers VS KBM fightst have not come in the first place.

If it helps you understand my stance i have been solely a fiesta main dince 4 as i got bored of competitve and its why im anti forced.

It cant be balnced as far as the game mechanics on certain things btb might be interesting to see stats for.

Im fine with balancing the two for crossplay providing they add option to seperate first as rank my get balanced but other casual modes may suffer

This is your opinion and many people on both sides disagree with you. Again, what are you even arguing about? We agree on separate game modes.

What? Again, we agree on adding separate game modes. With that, we would also like to see balance fixes so those of us that do want to play Crossplay can have that mode work as well OUTSIDE OF YOUR CONTROLLER ONLY GAME MODE!

NOT A SOLUTION! Separate game modes is a workaround to avoid a solution to the Crossplay problem. AGAIN, WE SUPPORT YOUR SEPARATE GAME MODE! and would like Crossplay fixed.

How is it a problem if, as you say, it isn’t broken?

Again, you have never faced a cheater and are just making blind accusations to make the KBM community as a whole look bad. Cheating is a problem on both platforms, not just PC.

Also, duh! If there was no crossplay than we wouldn’t be discussing the problems with crossplay. Just because you don’t want it or don’t play it doesn’t mean others don’t. The world does not revolve around you. We have agreed with you repeatedly on separate game modes, why are you still fighting us discussing what we want to do with our preferred game mode?
