    Wow judging by the uneducated PC elite responses OP hit a nerve! lmfao

    What's wrong? Can't actually construct an original argument or provide a reliable source to "educate" us?

    Make fun all you want then. :wink:

    I went from PC to PS4 when my PC crapped out, and back to PC when I could get a new gaming rig. Now that I've reattuned myself to the PC controls, I don't think I could ever go back. And even though it might seem less ergonomic to some, I've gotten around the controls being all over the place by having a Razr Naga mouse. Everything I need to do in combat is bound to one of the buttons on the side, so my left hand is for movement and the right hand is for combat. Makes everything that much easier. Oh, and also breaking 60 fps with all my settings on Ultra is nice, too.

    Is it me or are new players storming in from pc due to population dying there. Im on xbox na and i have actually met and talked to over 20 people in the last month or less that have been saying many of their guild mates also switched to console because they were worried about population and all that.

    Maybe zos one day should allow a account transfer again so we can get full cp players and they dont have to grind forever to get to 690.

    Also if anybody does switch to console you should come to Xbox one :) community is great here sometimes zone chat will get toxic like any console game lol but you wont regret it if your looking for a strong base. Xbox na is poppin right now its in a very good place i would highly recommend it.

    Is anybody planning on switching to console or is it just a few guilds doing it ? Also how is the population atm compared to console if you know

    Come to Ps4!

    I play on console xbox1x. PVP and trials are fine. Having no issues. PC people do not have clue about console performance only because they do not play on console.

    This is a matter of preference. Neither choice is a bad choice.

    I thought console was the one that's dying? Unplayable trials. Unplayable PvP. At least in the endgame PvE raiding community, it seems like there's an exodus from console to PC. There are so many "console refugees" coming in.

    Only if their internet is bad. I have a T1 fiberoptic connection, I have no problems on ps4 console.

    I have the opposite experience. There are so many ppl leaving console due to *** servers for pc right now it's crazy.

    Ok, it has been a lots of complains about performance on Xbox in trials.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    I play on both PS4 PRO and High End PC ,
    however I find myself spending more time on my PS4 as a hardcore PVP-er . Also I play with my DS4 controller on my PC, its just way more easier to animation cancel for me . The only addon that I use is the Skyshard , however when in PVP the "Miat BiacheZ" are literaly everywhere , I love when someone is constantly dodging my Structered entropy ^^ .

    Agreed. The amount of salt in here is more than a batch of fries from McDonalds. Got so much salt, we can use it for the snow.

    But on a serious note, I have no idea why people have turned this into a console versus PC issue. I truly don’t. And then for PC players to go and as per usual try and pull the “master race” card... Ugh. I thought people were beyond that, but I suppose not.

    Then again, I am curious now. If PC was so good... Why do most games on PC have absolutely atrocious ports, and suffer from extremely bad bouts with both bots and hackers? Why do games on PC require mods or add-ons in order to stand-out from console? Why is the selection for PC games usually so crap, that players have to resort to using emulators to play their favorite titles?

    The list goes on and on for why the whole PC master race claim is a joke. But, I’ll leave it be. No need for me to add fuel to that fire. :trollface:

    Refresh rates capped at 60Hz and controllers make consoles highly unattractive to me.

    PvP without Miatches everywhere actually makes me consider taking the plunge.

    We have a few people that came over from pc that just joined our guild a few weeks ago. Would not say this is an overwhelming amount. They came for different reasons too.

    One was fair pvp
    Another to play with brother that does not have gaming pc and moved out of home
    And one other guy that had an outdated pc and game ran bad on it and got a xb1 cheap

    I’m not sure if there is a set reason that anyone would leave one platform for another.

    I left pc to go to xb myself bc I wanted to play eso with my rl friends and they did not have gaming pc that would run ESO well but they all had xb.

    So, how do you play racing games or fighting games on PC (if you do play those genre of games)? You buy a wheel or stick? Because unless if you’re spending all that cash for immersion, you’re missing out big-time on the joys from simply holding down (X) or R2. While having the smoothness of inputting combos/commands with a controller’s d-pad.

    Maybe it is because I grew-up playing consoles (Jet Moto and Gran Turismo for PS1 all the way back to Mortal Kombat for SEGA Genesis), but I can’t imagine playing a fighting game or racing game with a keyboard and mouse. Let alone a platformer. Crash Bandicoot without a d-pad? Pls no. :s

    I don't play racing or fighting games at all, actually - I grew up playing on PC, not consoles.
    The only games I really played on consoles are football (soccer) games, and Baldur's Gate with a friend. That was beyond casually.

    I used to be a pretty hardcore Operation Flashpoint/Armed Assault player (slow tactical FPS), that's how I became addicted to smooth high-end graphics :)

    I have recruited around ten players into my Guild in the past month that came from consoles to Pc\na. I have friends that play on consoles that envy the amount of players we have on our servers. Your speculation is wrong.
