Shroud explains why Apex Legends, Warzone need to disable crossplay competitively Respawn \/ Twitch: ShroudMichael \u2018Shroud\u2019 Grzesiek believes crossplay should be disabled in competitive Apex Legends and Call of Duty Warzone tournaments to keep things fair across both controller, and mouse and keyboard players. Crossplay has been a net positive for the gaming industry. Not only does it significantly boost populations on servers and lobbies, but it also means you can play with your friends regardless of the platform. However, it has led to a huge debate about balancing input methods. Throughout the years, mouse and keyboard players have always had the edge over controller players due to having more control and precision. But controller aim-assist has been tweaked and refined to the point where it\u2019s arguably better and even considered to be overpowered. It\u2019s become a huge talking point in terms of fairness in competitive Apex Legends and Warzone tournaments. Shroud was asked to share his thoughts on the issue, and he came up with a simple solution. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing wrong with controller players. There\u2019s nothing wrong with crossplay,\u201d he said. [The solution] is really simple. When you\u2019re playing competitively, separate them.\u201d He believes it\u2019s not an issue in casual games because \u201cyou\u2019re literally playing in a random lobby with a bunch of random people.\u201d However, he does think that when money is on the line, controller players should be separated from mouse and keyboard. \u201cJust separate the two. It\u2019s that easy. It\u2019s not a complicated matter. \u201cCrossplay is amazing. It\u2019s helping gaming get pushed to the next level. Just don\u2019t have it when people are competing for cash money.\u201d Although Apex Legends and Warzone players are all playing the same game, the input methods are different. He believes there are pros and cons to each of them. So, if separating them when money is on the line isn\u2019t going to harm anyone, perhaps it\u2019s an idea worth considering. He urged developers to \u201cpull the trigger\u201d and do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
