A common misconception: There will be no cross-play between the consoles and PC players at launch, but there is a possibility of having it further down the line.
The post below has a FAQ section relevant to this topic.https://www.reddit.com/r/Mordhau/comments/14kg7yj/mordhau_console_launch_trailer_and_date_reveal/
Thanks u/Titan_TT, It was indeed that region I had in mind for my comment and I know that there have been changes made in region for hosting providers.
I have still had intermittent issues in US West even after the provider change in Leda servers (though admittedly not as frequent) and testing with WinMTU tooling to these IPs show that the PacketLoss I am experiencing is not along the route at all and was likely the server itself not handling the connections for all players.
I don't want to turn this announcement thread into a troubleshooting thread, but some regions (US WEST in particular) have had serious issues and a console release with the same server providers may lead to a bad user experience in those regions
No problem, the topic is still semi-related. As you have stated it comes down to some server not actually handling the load. But the issue is also the number of hops to reach servers in the US-West region, that is down to the infrastructure and not the server providers or developers. Leda is a state of the art server and has the best hardware on the market so we are still a bit surprised that it struggles on a full server, having the console servers locked at 30 ticks diminishes the load on them significantly and paired with consoles being standardized further helps with disparities encountered with PC users. We are confident that the consoles users will not encounter such issues. (provided there are enough servers to carry the player load(this was a disclaimer:)))
Is the server architecture going to be different or are the Official Server hosting providers going to be the same as the PC version?
Mostly asking this because my region has had some problems with official servers over the last few months and I worry the same issues may be present in console release if same hosting providers are used again
Console servers will be a combination of new providers and some old ones, but console server tick rate is set to 30 due to Xbox one and PS4 performance issues so that will fix the server-side lag.
You have not specified the region you are playing in so if by chance you play on the US-W where there is a known packet loss issue try the "Leda" servers to see if the issue still persists.
I agree on the support for mods, ModIO is fully supported across platforms including consoles and PC as far as they advertise so lack of mod support seems deliberate here :(
There are a lot of good maps and modes that the modding community makes and I would really like to see some form of support for this down the line
Altough ModIO claims to support it, there are a lot of uncertainties with what they actually support; the implementation, data limits, handling different versions..
The second point of contention is giving access to server files for consoles; to my understanding those are more delicate and we do not want to give the access to potential malicious members.
The community support is not completely out of the question, but was not implemented at the start of the Console Launch and is at the moment not planned to be implemented.
Its a shame that i wont be able to play with a few console buddies i have but i understand this crossplay restriction how ever, But could we see pc and console crossplay only on invite? For example if i invite my friend in pc and they are on console then the PC and console crossplay gets activated.
At that point we would just allow PC-Console crossplay, limiting it to individuals based on people in a group introduces even more technical challenges.

Honest question, why would anyone want to share accounts? Like, it's Mordhau. Smurfing isn't really a thing here.
Tournament match fixing, competitive team-draft fixing, cheating on an "already tarnished" account, lending the account to friends in good faith not realizing the implications(family share is a thing I guess some are not aware of). Those are the common ones at the top of my head, but there are more.

OH! Haha, ok well then I am glad your situation improved!
I just want to say, after years of fantasizing it, I finally have a fiber connection. I just couldn't play at all with weird ping where all animations felt accelerated, I couldn't keep up. Played some Mordhau yesterday and everyone was slow af in comparison.
Hi, are you perhaps on US West? If that is the case that region has some serious routing problems that are being looked at by the ISPs and our server providers.
Hello, the servers have been restarted this morning. Please let us know if the issue persists. Cheers.
We have pushed a hotfix removing the MOTD capabilities of community servers to remove the major safety risk. The build is live and you can download it. I will be closing this thread now. Thank you.
Hello Mordhau players, new and old! We have prepared a weekend event for you! All the Gold and Experience points gained in the game will be doubled! If you are one of the newer players that joined our community with the launch of Mordhau on the Epic platform, or one of the old guard still missing some of those vanity helms do not miss this opportunity to grind out some epic swag this weekend! The event starts now and will be going on until Monday! Bring your friends to the fray and split some skulls along the way!
External link →Hello, thank you for reporting it. Does it actually replace the intended weapon or was the halberd added when the match starts? In any case kills with such weapons will not count towards progression, so it is a minor issue. I will inform the team regardless.
Hello, I hope the issue was resolved with a game restart. If that was not the case please join the official discord channel and open a tech support ticket there.

Hello. The suicide removal was on the whole Brawler group as that is just how the action was coded and the community servers were affected. We are working on separating it and disabling suicide in the Swordgame only and returning it to the other modes. Cheers
