    console vs pc thing.

    hi. i ve been playing fh since launch. first months i grinded alot of reps on my ps4. it was an awesome feeling, i felt like in a real battle. then felt in love with the game, bought it on pc and started grinding reps again. now my rep level is way higher on pc. but thing is, on pc it all feels to mathematical, im baiting parries, fights go down at almost pinpoint accuracy. i said to myself, hey let s check the ps account. i logged in tonight went for few battles and guess what: the battles felt more like battles. more chaotic, anarchic. i failed to parry, i ****ed up combos i usually didn t, i people failed to parry in situations where on pc it never happend. so this brings me to my point of the post : i seem to enjoy more the feeling i get when playing on console. i like the fact that because of the framerate we sometimes fail, it seems very chaotic especially in dominions ( because thats is what i almost exclusively play) the teamfights seem like a glorious epic battle.what are your feelings on this one guys¿ a big salute to you all

    Yes console vs pc is way different. It’s due to how hardware works. I don’t like consoles. Even on my inferior hardware to the PS 4, I like the mathematical gameplay. I like the brutal difficulty that pc brings.

    Because due to nature of pcs. Ppl who play on Pc tend to be WAY more hardcore then casuals who play consoles. It’s why pc may seem harder. Because we are generally more tryhards so it is why we seem to be better.

    PC players arent better than console one. This is just a very different kind of gameplay due to the fact that on PC absolutly everything is possible to parry/deflect

    If you want chaotic melee, there are other medieval games out there to serve your urge.

    I primarily prefer PC because the 30FPS on console gives me a headache after a few minutes. It's also much easier to bait parries and deflects and then punish on PC.

    So... you prefer mindless chaos to what a game is supposed to look like? Console is your place then. And console 4v4's aren't what I'd call a glorious and epic battle, though PC is even worse in comparison, if you look at how the pros play them. Ugh.

    PC players are better than console ones, both on average and because most of the 10 or so pros left are PC players.

    I'll have to disagree. I don't have as much pc experience as I do from console but they both seem the same at my level. Only difference is that usually someone spamming out or being overly predictable usually gets punished for it.

    Saying PC players are better is factually incorrect.
    You have absolutly zero proof and stats about that.

    Most known players and youtuber are on PC for the simple reason that this is ez mode to get some spicy moove/punish.

    Tbf console version is too hard for most players.. player like Flux Deluxe were nothing special on console before they moove to PC and buy enough hardware to play with 160 fps.

    I've played both and imo Console is better than PC.

    But i can understand some people prefer PC. Its a personnal pov.

    Like I said. Pc players are gaming enthusiasts who want every advantage. That’s why the make god tier pcs. As most pc players are WHALES. Take away their god lvl computers and they would loose every time. It’s why they moved away from consoles. As you can’t buy an advantage. You have to legit be good.

    Because of the fact their enthusiasm they tend to try to get better- due to having hardcore gamers mentality. So they are generally better then console players who just play for fun

    I find that the mathematical gameplay on the PC is easier than the chaotic fighting on the console. The console is less predictable and more prone to making mistakes in fights; therefore, I would say that the more chaotic nature of the console version is actually the higher difficulty. In other words, accuracy is easier to accomplish on the PC, a lot less surprises.

    Being a tryhard on the PC, doesn't mean that your skill is going to transfer well to the console version because the "math" is different. In a way, it's apples to oranges.

    This whole argument is not worth having, because there is no way you can generalize and compare two large groups like this, claiming that one is "better" than the other. So do yourself a favor and stop replying to this thread so it can die in peace.
