Comparing console to pc

[u/Interesting_Book_280]

Just started playing on PC(roller) and was most interested in the main differences gameplay wise and to see if I ran into any cheaters. I created a low level account on Xbox so I could compare. Here are some things I found during the first session.

For PC I’m in silver lobbies to start(normally finish around low diamond on console). If you have decent aim on console it feels a thousand times better on PC due to more frames(240 on PC).

Quickly found out that silver lobbies on PC are not equal to silver lobbies on console. I was able to drop 10+ kills multiple time and feel like I could beat up the lobby. PC quickly found that the players in there were much more capable. If I peeked too long I was fried. I did get my first 4k badge which I didn’t even get when using my low level account on console.

Only ran into two games with suspected cheaters who were around level 20 accounts with the 3x havoc/r9 running over lobbies. I literally feel like I run into those every game on console once I hit diamond.

The maps look so much more impressive on PC and the game does feel overall less clunky which is nice.

Only ran into octane movement gods in mixtape so I’ll probably be seeing more of those as I climb the ranks.

Interested to see how the overall gameplay goes once I climb the ranks.

TLDR - aim feels extra crispy on pc. You can get fried on PC in silver lobbies. Didn’t run into as many suspected cheaters. Game feels great and less clunky.

Icl PC in general is better than console in every conceivable way, and the cheating isn’t as bad when you reach diamond+ on Apex PC. It’s like two different games 😭

When you go back to console the AA feels like cheating it’s so strong.

Idk why you’re getting downvoted it feels insane especially on classic

Because bad players fight against the AA not realizing it and they don’t understand how strong it is because they never let it work. Reddit is full of bad players so yeah I get downvoted when I talk about how strong it actually is. Every time I’ve said anything about it being strong I get downvotes.

The AA is very strong but the actual cheaters are crazy, I’m D3 and killed one pred squad tonight and the other 3 we ran into was 2/3 cheating havoc 2-4 p20 running at you without a care in the world saw the titan and reported but it’s not gonna do shit.

I guess I feel ok if the teams I’m dying to is #30 pred and others and cheating but still sucks cuz we could outplay them yet they just gave every advantage

If the AA wasn’t so strong they wouldn’t be able to cheat so easily. Take out the AA and half those cheating devices would be useless to most players.

I completely agree. I've played both console and pc and the biggest difference is the skill level. Console ranked is much better imo due to the better teammates. Even if they are bad lets say, pc players usually try to com and play together. Console you don't see that as much

On a serious note, how do you guys actually play FPS on a controller?

I usually play on MNK, and after I bought my Xbox controller, I tried it to see how it works. I can't aim at all tho with a controller.
