well its not competitive because a small percentage of people can win 99% of the time because of some people having a better input device. Currently if a mobile player wants to play "competitively" they leave to play on another server which doesnt mix them in with PC players. So sure, its harder for PC players, but thats because they now play against people who they dont have a massive advantage over.
I do agree that pc players shouldn't be able to constantly kill and frag mobile players because that would be unfair. But what I'm trying to say is that there are lots and lots of pc players who play just because it is easy for them. Personally, I don't try-hard since I play bedrock since its the version I've always lived with. For example I would say I am as good on console as I am on pc because I play them both on cube it's just that I prefer keyboard. It's just that even good players aren't even as competitive as java.
But that's from my experience on it. xD

I just saw my brother try to play the skywars gamemode on his pc, he ended up rage quitting after 10ish games due to cleaners and backstabbers. It takes a lot of skill to even win a game if youre a beginning pc player. I still think skill based matchmaking should be a thing.

A thing that I really hate is that cleaning saves game.Sometimes a kid will be at half a heart I try to kill him then 1 kid saves him and starts fighting me I’m winning then they run I chase them the original kid comes fully healed starts fighting me with this other guy and saves them then the entire lobby comes then I run half a heart away from 2 kills I should have gotten.

Literally cleanin, backstabbing, and targeting wins games instead of just playing normally while at max there would be 3 but now 8 players.I sometimes see 4 players on a small spawn island fighting.Also people team a lot more.

I really like this idea, it makes the game more enjoyable and more fair to play. And maybe you should make an option (just for mobile players) if they can join pc games cuz some mobile players are better than pc players and some people love challenges.

This is because the knockback test has been influenced by problems with platforms / input device - mobile players are now severely disadvantaged with the new KB because PC players can combo them to absolute oblivion. We have not ignored it and are wanting for changes to the network to go out within the next couple of weeks. However, there's still a lot of internal discussions that are having to take place before a massive change like this is deployed. I'd rather we take time to discuss what the best way forward instead of making a drastic change really quickly and making a mistake. :)
Can we have an option so we don’t have to deal with this.Also majority java players are voting.I’ve literally seen only Java’s voting on this.Java players just get skilled at mobile or get a mc on your PCs.Why are you even playing on mobile when you have a pc that could have bedrock.

Just search up how to pvp on mobile then you’ll learn.If you don’t play enough practice some more for example defaults in fortnite.They play once a month and get mad when someone better then them kills them.Instead of thinking how can I improve from this experience but then leave so they can never get better this is the exact thing you guys are complaining about if you get good as mobile you could easily wipe out a lobby of PCs and consoles.

Hackers would be more common so mobiles will still die a lot and likely more mobiles would get hackers so it will basically become ranked sw on hypixel.

I just think java players should just get better or get mc on pc.

I have a question. Is the console based matchmaking connected with 3 main platforms? Like if you joined a console based match would you fight against Switch/Xbox/PS4 Players? or do you fight like switch vs switch and xbox vs xbox etc?

We have a "controller" queue which constitutes Switch, Xbox, and Playstation. :)

The idea of having same device on a game is good but for example if I'm very good at skywars I will want to pvp with pc players but like I play with touch I won't be able to do that.
So If u add a option to change my matchmaking if I wanna play with android, pc, console or with all the platforms it would be good and no making division between platforms

We talk about platform-specific games as they're easier to understand, however queues are decided by the input device. So if you use a controller on PC / phone, then you'll be put on the controller queue.
And If I have a Bluetooth controller and a mouse and keyboard usb?

The reason why we're sceptical about adding a queue for people who wants to queue with everyone is that queue times will be long - to the point that it won't be enjoyable to even queue with every platform. With this queue option, we're assuming that:

- People know of its existence - unfortunately, at the moment, we haven't optimised things like game announcements for Bedrock. We simply cannot tell people about the existence of the queue effectively. Sure, we can tweet, we can put a forums / Discord announcement, but there are still hundreds of thousands of players who will not know of its existence.

- This has a knock-on effect on queue times. We're assuming that people will actually join this queue or enable this setting when the likelihood is that only a couple of thousand globally will. With a network with 40k~ players on at a time, a few thousand means that queue times will longer than we'd like it to be. Also, adding a new queue to the pools of queues means that the queue times for the platform-specific games will increase as well.

This is why we're suggesting only for it being available for the platforms above yours - you'll be put into the respective "higher" queues, which inflates the sizes of people joining the queues towards the top. It also benefits the fact that KBM players make up the minority of our playerbase, so their queue times would be shorter as well. 😄
So you haven’t tried it but are scared but you still add the separation how about you put it in beta with platform queuing and see how it does.

Small chance you are reading this but most likely this thread will get a greenlight because it has more votes which I would completely agree with you on. You ask the opinion to the community here is listened to but why not when the thread comes from the community itself? This player makes a map with 114 upvoted and 5 downvotes and it is completely ignored. I hope this was just totally forgotten and you want to look into this again because this map is really cool. Please listen to the community and feature this map! Thanks if you found the time to check out this comment I really appreciate the work you put in Cubecraft!

Oh let’s make a game that rewards cleaning or backstabbing what a great idea let’s do it.

Not fun.Not fun.

Literally everyone cleans you can’t just get a normal fight naaahhh you get the entire lobby.Oh someone sees you comboing someone off the edge him gotta knock him off too.Sees someone about to die from a fight let me just start fighting the guy about to kill and save the other guy greeaaattt.Then I’m about to die oh he saves me this time then a kid cleans him great game.

I'm not sure how this relates to platform-specific games? This seems like an occurrence that would happen on any platform, including Java?
