Well it's clear some deal was struck between them and Xbox, as they are also giving out some perks to Xbox users who have Game Pass Ultimate, I think.

these dumb decisions from developers that I don’t understand.

Are they believing they are doing something good for the industry?

Sony getting cucked by Microsoft while handing their games out to Nintendo and Steam. Damn.

Not to worry though, Valorant hardware bans you for saying naughty words on chat. Best to avoid the game altogether.

Ohhhhh now I’m confused…

Dev says no gyro due favoring PS5 over Xbox.
Next Dev says there is no cross-play.



If there is no cross-play how are you favoring one over other? 🤔

I think i get it. He says consoles and PC. So PS5 and xbox is cross play between but not PC. So yeah, i can see PS5 users just destroying xbox users with gyro.

Then give PS5 users the option to turn off cross play and use Gyro.

thanks xbox

not only is the series s holding back all multiplatform games from a horsepower standpoint, but the lack of gyro in xbox controllers is holding back mutliplatform games from a control standpoint too

Pretty big exaggeration and far from the truth, stop fear mongering.

They hardware ban for cheating, there are other types of bans or warnings such as chat ban, temp band, account bans, etc.

Gyro controls are trash. I thought that was just some gimmick switch fanboys shill for meanwhile it’s actually a handicap.

Agree.

If it’s similar to the controls used in Splatoon then I’m not sure what gamers are missing.

Garbage.

THIS x1000.
I remember during PS3-360 gen, that was all Nintendrones would shout about.
Now? It's PORTABLE, PORTABLE, PORTABLE!

Yuh nvm Concord has nothing to worry about.

No crossplay w PC is the reason I quit Overwatch 2. Couldn’t play w friends on rank w my console friends when I was on PC.

And the whole reason of Valorant is to play rank mode. Even if console has disadvantage w PC still leave the option for console players who want to opt in with PC friends

five seconds in google:

With the recent Valorant developers' announcement, they have made clear that harassment and toxicity are not what they want in their game. Developers made it very clear that if they found a very severe or repeated case against a player, they would use hardware bans as a measure to combat toxic behavior.

Link from reddit:



Whose fear mongering then? Google? Reddit? The Devs?
