Is PC or Console easier? | Forums

Doesn't really matter, the game is so unbalanced don't waste youre time on the game. There is no PvP balance whatsoever. You play against already twinked already skilled players and have to play catch up for months. Great playing game and graphics are superb, too bad the PvP sucks ***

Characters are pretty well balanced, trust me. It's just that there is a steep learning curve. If taking time to learn fight mechanics bothers you, this probably isn't your type of game.

I would .. say that more for duel. Anything outside of 2s is a mess. There’s plenty of threads for 4v4 balancing and stuff so I won’t start here but the learning and actual balanced fighting is mostly duals. That’s just my two cents.

Characters are not well balanced, and stepping into PvP against players with already high level gear is a pathetic way to have PvP matches. Its absurd. And what do you consider an acceptable time to learn mechanics? The last time I played I lost 17 games and won 2. I had between 600 and 900 points, PvP balance is ridiculous, and so is gear for PvP if your new. Great way to get new players into the game.

Gear stats aren't really as big a bonus as you think, plus it didn't take long to get into legendary gear which start showing up around rep 5/6 by that time you should have a decent understanding about your class. That's where you will notice a difference. 4v4 is pretty well balanced. Most of what plagues the matchmaking is dominion matches where a team can deathball effectively and just run the map.
I would say, if you haven't been playing for longer than a couple of months, you are at a massive disadvantage, skill wise.
I've been playing for over a year on console and switched to PC recently. Because of a lamp of account binding I had to start over, so I'll fighting pretty new players regularly till I rep up. I very rarely ever get parried or even have someone CGB me unless it's from neutral, and I don't really ever feint unlockables till they get parried a few times.
New players need to understand there is work involved in learning this game.

For pretty much all stats, I agree. Except the Revenge gain and defence penetration stats. Without those, the difference is night and day.

PC is great if you can get the hang of keyboard and mouse. AND you can plug in a gamepad if that's your preferred form of control.

Only someone that is a console fan would overlook the simple and clear cut fact that a PC will always surpass in terms of control options.

However, if you're better with a GAMEPAD (key word. Gamepad. NOT console) then a console can be useful. But then you'd never practice and improve with a keyboard and mouse (or just keyboard, depending).

No one can answer for you. And it can always change. I'm currently unsure if you can bind block with movement (for assassin classes) and am using the mouse. I tend to dodge more then block though. Can't really test it right now. If I can use both for once it MIGHT be easier. Or it might not be.
