Query about dual system buyers options PC/PS4

[MsQi]

I don't think they have ever had a bundle including multiple platforms. Sounds like you prefer the PC. Maybe buy PC first and then buy the PS4 when it goes on sale. The best place to ask these kinds of questions may be support chat. If you hit "contact us" you will have to do at least one search and then they give you the chat option.

Thank you for that link.


I think the Windows version is noticeably better than what the PS4-Pro can do. I've been trying to use mouse and keyboard for doing dungeons, but I've found it really difficult to use the key-binds for the hotbars. I might have to mess about with how I layout the bars in the UI, as I don't have problems playing WoW with mouse and keyboard (cancelled my WoW sub after learning about them laying 800 people off, just to improve the profit margins, yet 5 executives took home $70million in bonuses last year). The X bar system with the controller works so well.

It's just my back limits the amount of time I can spend sat on my chair sadly. When I got my Windows licences, they had a special bundle that had ARR/HW/SB together at a really heavily reduce price. You could only get this bundle if you already had the game on a different platform. I think I would get the PS4 version first, as I can at least play it when my back is sore.

I realised that they can only offer the new expansion as a physical copy on the PS4 on the SE store, as any digital download is via the PSN store.

I have to ask Felix, since you are used to the PS4, why not just use a controller with your PC to play the game?

Controller use is built right into the game and supports both PS and xbox controllers. You can also configure the hotbars and buttons to do whatever you want to.

I am on PC and I have used both types with the game and it is super easy to do. Just go out and buy a PS pc adapter and sync your PS4 controller to it.

Though, I will tell you right now though, xbox is better because of the whole powerpack thing. Instead of having to charge the PS controller itself on USB when it dies. It's just easier to switch out powerpacks on the Xbox controller real fast and resync it. Well you CAN play on the PS controller whole it is charging, but you are stuck tethered instead of wireless till it's done.
