YAY! DayZ on PS4! and why i hate the idea. Ok hold on before you type some kind of hate comment im also going to talk about the upside of consoles. Ok so pros, where to start? So more people. Yes this is a bad/good thing but that will mean a bigger community of players personally i dont hate that. I thing that it is a good thing that more players are getting involved. Rocket has said that it will help the PC version, this is not yet proved but we will see if they are telling the truth and see if PC version will improve BECAUSE of console. Cross-Platform Servers: This is why i have cons this is the main reason for my ranting! Theres a few more but this is where im going to go into CONS! AUTOAIM: This is a main problem that people have been telling me. Since consoles have crappy controller for aiming. [Quick note: i have a console and i do enjoy playing on it i dont hate them, ok back to subject] This will mean that they could/would put in auto aim. this will put pc players on a huge disadvantage. KIDS: Ok... I know i will get flamed for this but here we go. The console community has more crybabies and more ******** then PC. Yes i know they are on PC too but less then consoles. Alot of kids will treat this as a FPS then a Survival game because its what there used to and admit it! KOSing is somewhat fun not that i do it im just saying. When this comes out expect alot of KOSing/Bandits. Controller Usage: This is where the lines gets alittle blurry. Keyboards have a somewhat advantage/disadvantage. Where we have to press the number keys to switch weapons/items. Consoles will have to press Y or Triangle to switch we have to reach for the number keys. I think that this is somewhat unfair. If they make it easier for console players to do stuff it would put us at a major disadvantage. I could go on but i want your perspective on this problem/improvement
