How do console players deal with this?

It was a day one release bug when Walter was added, it was shortly fixed.

Wait wut?

Maybe im just dumb then i only played Walter around his release and then didnt really touch him again, but since ive lost access to dlc characters figured id give him a go again. Maybe the delay from the lag compensation and the wierd jitter walk she does when you press the attack button made it seem like she was attacking

Mike isn't the only console player you know.. there are a bunch of us. 

Also sounds like he's on current gen console I'm still on ps4 so more loading times/lag. Where's all my "He's a hero" etc etc 

Lmao, you can't steal iron will Mike's thunder he's been straight at it in these forums. For days, for DAYS.

whenever I play with lag compensation set to off, it just makes the game a whole lot laggier so I don't get why everyone says it should be off

Maybe it's just your experience, but lag compensation being set to none helps for me

he's suffered fighting dragonfly on console, he plays like this EVERY SINGLE DAY and he could easily switch to pc, but he doesn't 

why? CUS HE'S A SIGMA MALE WHO DOESN'T CARE ABOUT THE CONSOLE PROBLEMS (well he does, but he still lives with them)

to be honest me too

I've killed every boss in the game(cept celestial guy and twins of horror) 

and while I didn't do it alone, it was split screen so in a way it was a bit harder

Well I guess if you want to give me all that praise: I’ve also successfully fully mastered both DS & DSTs achievement list.

(They aren’t that hard: But you may break your controller on DS’s Accomploshrine.) )

Dude I've seen your ark playtime I don't doubt you 100%

Ark is a life-time commitment I don’t actually play that game, but I do still have to log into it daily to feed bases and renew land for my family & alliance.

The Achievements for DS & DST are pretty basic honestly: Unlocking Wes & Maxwell in solo DS will probably be your hardest ones to get.

I only 100% the games I throughly enjoy playing, I don’t actively try to 100% everything I play, if I’m not having fun I don’t commit myself to it.. but if I DO enjoy it- I want to put those games in an elite list of games I actually cared to 100%

I still feel like there’s a lot Klei could do to improve the quality of the game for console players especially when they said they hired a team of people specifically just to work on the console platforms.. Fingers crossed they put that team to good use in 2022!

Hopefully since the switch is the weaker one out of the consoles, a port means they might have some optimization benefits for the rest of the platforms

Just git gud, I have no problem kiting most things on my Xbox1x.

Dude split screen makes it way easier, much less communication needed and much more info, multi tasking is easier you can help each other much more easily and tell each other what's the problem without needing to actually be there. That and atleast the screen isn't split horizontally. Unlike some games (by that I mean pvz gw 2).

This is surprising, is Mike really such a pro gamer?

Your okay with the controls until you realize there are features of the game designed with Drag & Drop which console does not have.

Reasons why that sucks: PC players can drag and drop low durability items into the ocean to get rid of them, for console players they either need to be kept in inventory and fully used or thrown on the ground and left there till later.

Drag & Drop Meat over a Gnarwail out at sea to tame him: Yeah console can’t do that..

Drag & Drop Twigs or Logs to distract Cookie Cutters: Yeah we’re just screwed here too.

Drag & Drop items over Abigail from a safe distance away from her so you can heal her and manage her without needing to be dangerously close.

Giving Items to Merms or Pigs that are hostile to you (yes that’s a feature… and no it’s impossible on console controller to perform)

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised at all if you can’t just Drag and Drop fuel onto a campfire without needing to be close to it and get the “add fuel” prompt.

You thought I was JOKING or Over-Exaggerating things when I said Console & PC are literally playing two completely different games?

Im not.. and to be honest it sucks, I’ve paid more for my experience, so why is my experience worse then the people who got Hamlet, Wormwood, and even DST for Free just for being in their Betas? I had to pay for all that separately.. 

The Wendy Main in me feels compelled to say that “It tinges my heart with a bitter sadness & that the reality of things is life just simply isn’t fair, & some people will suffer more then others.”

In a weird way I feel like all the money I and other console gamers have put into this game has paid for all of what we still continue to get, but even then… Our Controller/ Port support is just plain bad.

Try fighting Eye of Terror without Wolfgang’s built in extra movement speed now  Even knowing the kiting pattern: it still manages to hit you during the phase 2 swooping thing it does- it’s either perfect timing or SUFFER Worm..

Guess that’s part of the “Uncompromising” though.

On PC it wasn’t difficult at all to dodge phase 2 as new wolfgang, so I suspect it’s due to input delay on console.  Gross.

It’s possible to dodge it, But I think bosses shouldn’t be designed around Wolfgang’s now non-existent Speed boost either, Klei could probably make these things easier to fight when playing alone.. 

If there are other players it won’t just continue to target the same player.. but if your playing alone: Good Luck dodging out the way of most attacks.

I can not kite out of the way of Deerclops.. I pretty much just put armor on and smash the attack button till it’s dead, Healing when needed.

If there’s supposed to be a way to fight that thing without getting hit: I’ve never done it. But for a boss you can kill in less then about 50 seconds just holding the attack button and healing when needed.. I guess your not supposed to dodge his attacks.

(some character choices suffer more here then others but for Wolfgang.. just hold attack it’ll die quickly.)

[BeeClops]

I've played on both and the delay/input lag is the same, I don't notice any difference unless it's a world with huge ping or something (I play w lag compensation off, the game does appear to run smoother with it on if I remember correctly, but it just predicts your position wrong so you can't properly kite). 

As for controls yes, they are much worse, in particular when it comes to spell casting (staffs weather pains etc) and teleporting/soul hopping. Inventory management during fights is also much more difficult.

eye of terror phase 2 is easily dodgeable on console too, it's the same thing

Also double damage against bosses with same health pool.. 

No idea how split screen could ever be considered by anyone to be harder than solo..

Anyone know why 3/4 of the offical dedicated servers do not have caves enabled? 

Kind of a bummer the only server with caves has the highest ping.
