Battlefield's Commitment to Positive Play

[Submarine5776]

Why is mouse and keyboard not supported on console? Are there plans to have this implemented at some point? It seems odd that this would not be included at launch for a FPS.

@Submarine5776 Quite simply it would be an unfair advantage.

[Submarine5776]

How? It has crossplay. If you turn crossplay off and you’re playing M&K on console, you should get matched with other people on M&K whether on console or PC. Other games do this and works fine.

sounds like if crossplay is turned off you get

matched to console players and not what you are using to play with (M&K or controller). Seems like a step back and doesn’t make a lot of sense.

@Submarine5776 The implication is that, while it won't be present at launch, Dice will be looking to implement it down the line if possible.

Exactly. It they expect us to play against pc gamers why not enable kb/m support.

This is ridiculous

Any word on linux EAC support? (As in the devs enabling it for Linux via the Proton combability layer on Steam).
I'm interested in this mainly so I can run the game on the upcoming Steam Deck!

Agreed, doesn’t make any sense.

[Submarine5776]

hopefully it gets implemented sooner rather than later. Not sure how it won’t be “possible”when it is already the norm for so many other games on console with crossplay.

Crossplay with no Kb&M Support on Console 

Thank you for making this easy i will Go Cancel my Gold Edition Pre order right now.     You guys should learn from Activision and WARZONE IF PEOPLE DON'T HAVE Kb&M support they use Xim apex and Cronus especially on Xbox because they don't work on Ps5 games which make it unfair game play.       EA Just the same old thinking which make it always come last ( same with crossplay which was implemented lately)

@Valkyrie-73 I canceled my pre-order for lack of Kb&M Support
